Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[gentlemand]

And more importantly it would be a mess coordinating the change in all the exchanges and... now that Bitcoin it is so mainstream how to explain the MSM that Bitcoin has gone from $17000 to $17?

A mess.... even an almost unknown coin such as Byteball, which would greatly benefit of that change, would have difficulties doing it. Bitcoin? Forget it.

We can keep doing forks as some sort of stock split though

It's staggeringly too late now. It should've happened in 2009 after a bit of thinking about where it might head once it was up and actually running and about thirty people needed persuading.

Had a very interesting discussion with a friend who is a financial advisor. I ordered him to buy some bitcoin end of last year and he did and he took me out to dinner as a very small thanks.

Very interesting discussion on the concept of money, digital immigrants, the concept of nation states, and such. Fascinating. But the basic thought that a global currency that can't be manipulated by banks or nations is one that when certain people in the club wake up and think about it are not going to like it much.

Then again it could be like the euro. I'm still thinking about this one, will be for the next few weeks.

Hm.

The problem, IMHO, is that in order to maintain stability, growth and social order states NEED to control and somewhat manipulate economy. And they can do that by controlling currency or via taxes. For some reason, population doesn't like taxes so it is easier to manipulate currency which most people doesn't notice.

In world with a really decentralized currency (if that is ever possible) expect CRAZY changes in taxation.

Pullback. I blame futures.

Just wait till those altcoins start pulling back and all this money flows back into BTCitcoin 

We're up 200% in a month while still climbing. Give the badger some rest, let the alts have their fun and in a while big mr b will wake up again.

 Actually,  there was a dip in that month...  So while it's up over the last 30 days,  we're covering some old ground and percentages are deceiving.

Either you meant page count parity, or I slept far longer than I thought...

Sometimes it feels like this WO thread is an island of tropical paradise and truth, floating in a cesspool sea of shit.

Oh FFS Torque, don't go out there!

Last time I went out there I ended up penning an expletive laden rant about Google translate signature campaign posts...totally humiliating in retrospect...don't soil yourself so.

One day we'll be overrun. We should have a backup plan.

Plan to meet in Cypherdoc's bizarro WO. No one ever uses it.

[jojo69]

actually we are somewhat safe as the sigs don't resolve here, totally down with the disaster plan though

As it seems we are soon to reach the "WO pages count" milestone -now at 18721- we will need a new target. I propose the "WO posts count" as next milestone.

It could be achivable by end of next year *IF* the exact same rate of price increase doesn't change.

I also noticed that we've had ~1M new thread views added in the last two weeks or so.

Don't know if that is accurate or not. But if so that's a lot of eyeballs reading our garbage, lol.
