Cripple and bcash going down. Bitcoin is up! Cheers! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) It started at least a couple hours ago. Let's see if it is a solid trend change.

[...] Meanwhile the price rise of Ethereum is destroying its capability to act as the Ethereum Virtual Machine. [...]
It is not the price rise that is the problem, but the transaction throughput. The 'upgrading' of the Ethereum network cannot come soon enough if EOS is not to take over the crown (as semi-decentralised Virtual Computing network).

I was reading this article, about the technological advances that we will see in bitcoin in 2018, and there is something that caught my attention. "Keep an Eye Out for These Bitcoin Tech Trends in 2018"https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/keep-eye-out-these-bitcoins-tech-trends-2018/I know it's a subject that may have been discussed in the past, but I would like to know what you think about this: Sidechains are alternative blockchains but with coins pegged one-to-one to specific bitcoins. This allows users to effectively “move” bitcoins to chains that operate under entirely different rules and means that Bitcoin and all its sidechains only use the “original” 21 million coins embedded in the Bitcoin protocol. A sidechain could then, for example, allow for faster confirmations, or more privacy, or extended smart contract capabilities, or just about anything else that altcoins are used for today.
The concept was first proposed by Blockstream CEO Dr. Adam Back and others back in 2014; it formed the basis around which Blockstream was first founded.
I want to clarify that I am not against the side chains, I am even very enthusiastic about the possibilities of use that they can offer us ... but, is not there the possibility that there could be a conflict of real interest? I ask because the bitcoiners of yesteryear, was very insightful, eceptic and distrustful, but it seems to me that this is not a point to which attention is paid; and I would like to know why (assuming I've been late for this discussion). There are reasons to trust that the intentions of Adam Back and G. Maxwell are totally transparent and there is no cognitive bias related to their interests? On the other hand, what role does Adam Back fulfill in Bitcoin Core? Could someone point me out where to read about how to organize and take decisions in Bitcoin Core? Please, I do not want it to be misunderstood, it is not my intention to trolling.

quotes with lots of idiots and stupid
This list could easily be extended a couple of pages. lol... nice compilation there bud and while you're at it, you could do the same with a certain frequent poster in here. just use "centralized craptocurrrency", "pms", "jews and cuckolds" for search words, the resulting list would extend thousands of pages.... I'm sure of that ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

What we are witnessing right now are the last weeks of bitcoin being the dominant cryptocurrency. Ripple and Ethereum are both going to fly past it in the near term. I think that the total collapse might be just a few days away before the masses understand that there are no longer gains to be made in bitcoin and start evacuating their assets to these two more modern cryptocurrencies.
More modern cryptocurrencies? Some are not even cryptocurrencies (like ripple)! Some others don't even work, yet they have a price that goes up and down (like Uno)!!!!! Get real! As for modernity, you can try the bitcoin lightning network here!!! https://htlc.me/Of course, it's on testnet. The Lightning Addresses seem kinda long. Please send me 20 cents. lntb13370n1pdyuj2qpp504kf7ht2q70mu9c7w5y2yz3sh540rzet0mmqmpjyzrh2wl274p3sdz80v3 xjg36yg6rzefexf3n2v3dxsmkgvpdx3jrswfd8psnwvpdx93njcesxs6rjdp5xs6zylgcqzys6yyxjg dx5pp54pdam2duxvyvta63mh675lspjav0500ds5a6htyydd46y8tjqy4unkwtj52w2pmt2fwhqn4xw mu33jcqq55uxcfc35cqmjvg6k Go to the above address, generate an invoice on the "Receive" tab, then paste me the id of the invoice. You can also do it yourself. Just use different browsers for sending and receiving.

Back at 15k
A year ago nobody believed it could get to 15k by 2018. That's an amazing price to stabilize at. Indeed! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

I did wonder whether that 600 coin dump 12 hours ago was the peak of the attack. I think far too early to call it over.

Please, I do not want it to be misunderstood, it is not my intention to trolling. To me this is a no brainer bitcoin is built, basically complete and tested. All it needs to do now is evolve 1) smart contracts on the blockchain 2) specifically desinged POS payment system for retail with its own tokens pegged to bitcoin etc etc etc take a look at rsk.co smart contracts the trust is in bitcoin, the trusted blockchain, unhackable for years then pegging your side-chain to it makes it completely transparent as long as you have a token with real world value and transparency (amazon coin, nursing coin, disability coin, coal coin, solar coin, etc etc) it can be trusted

My base line is that we are still under attack until we get through this weekend and see huge green candles on badger next week.

We've been in this cycle of slowly ticking up to 15K, OR even almost 16K over hours and days - but then dropping back down to 14K/15K or lower in just minutes... then repeating. Yawn. Meanwhile those crazy alts are just shooting up under speculation. On twitter they read like crazy immature millennial investors in a market cap race mainly. Very odd to see this.

I think the Ripple whales are just shaking out the traders’ stop losses. I tried that game a couple times with my trading account and decided it was not for me.

Looks like Yobit has these so far:
SBTC B2X GOD ATOM
Could be worth a few Satoshis. If you have the energy.
Whats important is when you can deposit, not just trade. Yobit doesn't allow deposits in any of these coins. Currently: Bitcoin Diamond, sell on gate.io SuperBitcoin sell on okex.com You can download clients from github and import you priv. keys. Prices are slowly declining.. Thanks for the tip! Converted my SuperBitcoin gift to original Bitcoin... still trying to figure out the Bitcoin Diamond though.
