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

[Samplex]

Just found a stack of paper wallets from 2015. I was giving away 0.05 Bitcoi in each and these were the leftovers. It’s a nice find I didn’t know I had it....

Yep.   All of a sudden scrap amounts become real money.

It is kind of bullshit, though, regarding how some of these people treat their gifts, and I have a few war stories regarding that too.

My friend recently contacted me, and told me that he was looking for his son's $40 bitcoin transaction that I had sent for a graduation gift.

Mind you I sent $40 to the son and $10 to the dad, in order that they could, perhaps, learn together about bitcoin.  The price was around $380 at the time... So, a couple of times a year, I would remind him about bitcoin and ask him if he had retrieved the bitcoin... did it through Circle....  He said, yeah, yeah, yeah, he still has access to the e-mail account, and just a few weeks ago when he contacted me, he asked me if I could recover the coins because he said that he did not have access to the e-mail accounts.  The son's value was something like $1,740 and the dads value was something like $440.  Crazy.  I think that they lost everything, unless they can regain access to their earlier e-mails, perhaps there is a way... I think that it was a private domain e-mail that their family administrator allowed the domain to expire.

Thats really sucks, that is the problem with most people. They don't take it seriously thta they are their own bank. They are the ones who need to care for coins, theres nobody who would help them. I feel so bad when I hear stories like this really it like pissis me off because people don't wanna listen...

easy to say from a nation that won't actually roll tanks on you

there are loads of stories from old jews who said they should and could have stood up to the Nazis to stop them being herded off...
also Russians with respect to Stalin's goons.
if one of us gets the knock on the door and doesn't fight to the death, we all end up in the gulag/big zone.

Pay your taxes to the bitcoin foundation like a normal bitcoiner and stop colluding with the enemy please and thank you.

lolwut? What are we in 2013?

Agreed on on the paying taxes to nation states part, though.

you are in the UK right LotV8s ?

what they are going to send the bobbies around to ask nice?

The US government does things differently.  I'm not saying I disagree with you, just that it is easy to say from your perch.

Xmas time/holidays actual transactions are low and spam can't keep the blocks full. You might wanna ping your overlords to ramp up those spam bots. Otherwise, we'll see cheap transaction on the BTC again which would make Bcash redundant (and absorb its market cap) even before LN gets here (hopefully by end of '18)

tl;dr need more real money to pay electricity bills for those bcash miners, and to fill up BTC blocks with spam pronto! Otherwise BTC moons

there is something shady with GDAX/Bitfinex, >10% price difference?

[BlindMayorBitcorn]

There's always something shady happening in Bitcoin. Looks like Finex ran out of Tethers. It's all peculiar all the time.

Bitfinex being Bearfinex is a point in favour of Tether being a non-issue

Maybe they forgot to print more. I'm just spitballing, really. But what IS going on with this spread? Any ideas? Fiats too slow?
