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

I have decided that Ripple is an attack on Bitcoin the same as Bcash.  They are trying to scare holders into selling by wash trading a Flippening.  Don’t fall for it.

Not even likely. Ripple is plain simple centralized POS scam, has nothing to do with BTC. It doesn't share the technology, doesn't share the philosophy, it shouldn't even be called the same name "cryptocurrency" as Bitcoin. On the other hand, BCash is real evil attack on Bitcoin.

I have decided that Ripple random shitcoin is an attack on Bitcoin the same as Bcash other random shitcoin.  They are trying to scare holders into selling by wash trading a Flippening.  Don’t fall for it.

FTFY. They've been trying this lame 'flippening scare' tactic for over a year now, because they are all fresh out of other shitactics.

Pumping random garbage will never work. The Bitcoin community has matured and can see through the bullshit.

Wallstreet desperately needs more bitcoin supply to play their con games with the public, and there just isn't much available. So they are desperate to get existing holders to part with their bitcoin. They want them to make rookie trading mistakes, divest into a myriad of shitcoins, or just get frustrated and sell... whatever they can do to shake people out. It doesn't appear to be working.

Luvin it, so true

And thats why you would have to be completely stupid in not making money in this environment

Money everywhere, buy low sell high, so easy

flip this coin, flip that, back to btc money money money

another thing people are not realising, this is a transference of wealth and devaluation of the fiat

the central bank scam is exposed and people are flooding to get away from them

gold moving now too

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BITCOIN!

BTC is NINE years old.

Nine years later ignorant idiots are still publishing articles about BTC that they clearly don't understand!

Given how much the required electricity consumption for Bitcoin mining has jumped over the years, it is no surprise that – in comparison to #0 – the mining reward for a single block has dropped to 12.5BTC these days.

Agreed at least ripple doesn’t purport to be something it isn’t. It’s an open racket.

Now you have these guys like Adam Back and Coblee making nonsensical comments claiming that bitcoin is proof of stake and mining doesn't even matter.  [...]

I really don't understand your interpretation of those tweets: they are not talking about PoS.

Well, those blinds you are wearing will prove to be fatal some day. This is what zealotry can lead to, if you ask me.
Oh, and the flippening will happen. Its importance is indeed overrated, but it will happen and much sooner than you probably think.  There are too many alternatives out there with much better fundamentals that more or less exclude the possibility of it not happening.

Instead of admitting bitcoin failed because it's designed to centralize, they claim control of the protocol rests with nodes and whatever miners do doesn't matter, aka proof of stake - except nodes can be sybiled so what they're saying makes zero sense.  They're advocating a completely nonsensical explanation of how they think bitcoin should work instead of just admitting it failed.

^And this is how you can tell he's a jew shill, he tries pushing cultural marxism garbage non-stop and claims criticizing jews is "racism", but has no problem pulling complete double standards against enemies of his evil Jewish cult (enemies meaning anyone who is not jewish or doesn't want to be ruled or extorted by jews).

I don't understand why there is so much negativity about BCH here. I'm not a BCH fanatic nor a BTC hater, I hold both in similar numbers.

Peeps get grumpy reading 18,000 pages of thread that are OFF TOPIC.

Get a new seed, send your BTC to a new address and pull the private key out with a BIP39 tool. Stick it in Coinomi and you'll be up to your ears in shit before you know it. But I think many of them might be too much even for any vaguely respectable wallet.
