Oh Kodak... lol

Looks like they just stuck a Kodak sticker on the
side of an S9....

That's exactly what I thought.

What's stopping the likes of Coca Cola doing the same and creating Coca Cola Coin CCC or McDonald's coins: MDC: McCoin?

In other news looks like we are going up again.

When literally every company in the world has their own private "coin" or ICO and they're all up 500% because of it, that will be your sell signal.

I think if something important as that can come out it for sure will be integrated, and i think exchanges who will integrate it first will profit and all the users will switch. I think if the LN is available it won't be that hard for the exchanges to create ln wallet for fast storage and transactions.

Why would average exchange give a damn about LN? Trades are done off-chain, large portion of bitcoin "users" don't even own wallets (buy for fiat on exchange and keep it there), to deposit - user still has to pay miner fee to open channel (so makes no sense), withdrawal fees can be passed onto users (to discourage them for withdrawing).

I don't see any immediate incentive for exchanges to implement LN. They would likely be the last to jump on it, unless there's a massive demand from users, but average traders would hardly benefit from it, if at all (with an exception of arbitrage traders).

Yeah, it's not really on their interest right now. Maybe it's time to open new exchanges that uses LN and are more transparent with their finances, I'm sure that would attract a lot of users

The vacuum of the ripple implosion is pretty amazing.   Haha, it sure is rippling the market.  You know, I almost feel bad for the people that invested in it.

Ask my boss how he feels about his Ripples 

He's already a (fiat)millionair but still believes Bitcoin is to expensive while i advised him serval times that you can buy Bitcoin for $50 and $100 etc.

Best part is that i told him i bought the dip during X-Mass....Boss: b...but did you spend $12.000? lol.

He had Bitcoin but sold all below $1000 while i strongly adviced him to HODL!

Most people here are miles ahead of the unknow, sheeps will never listen, just like talking to a wall no matter how many times you explaining it to them.

A million dollars a year will soon become the poverty-line wage. The poverty line wage today was amazing money a few decades ago.

You would literally have to make like 100 million USD in crypto to be able to retire in 40 years, and quit your job and stuff.

Not much to do with your story, but just a thought!

Not true, almost all investments should counter the inflation. And if you belive that all investments will go red in a total Armageddon financial crisis, you can just go roach and store gold and silver instead of fiat.

I will retire when and if I'll be able to cash out the equivalent of my salary until 70 years old +retirement untill 100 yo, I think it should suffice.

But for now that's only a dream, I feel a bit ashamed for that and somehow envious of all the multi-millionaires on this forum, i did never gave much value to money but I value a lot the life quality (not luxury but having time etc), and my inability of giving money their importance is the reason because I probably missed the chance of early retirement, an huge life quality improvement.

I still belive in bitcoin (the project, not the asset) and I really hope as hard as I can it will go to Pluto, but I would suggest all the people that are able to do so to cash out the equivalent of their life-wage, and enjoy financial freedom. I think that richness don't make people happy, but the freedom of using their time is a prerequisite for an happy life (you can still work when and if you want).

Hodl my hand, i hope that soon we'll all be free, and don't be too greed, because you can never satisfy greedness.

The Big Dip^TM 

[kosse]

HODLing for $15k.

Geez. Even I have stronger hand than that  and I am BEARISH. Get your sh!t together, sonny.

[Aqualung89]

It seems like they want to keep at these prices, I guess I did not know how well they did not progress like this.

 Excuse me - they're called AChaps

edit: and I believe they are all assless

Yup, two good tests at $13 - $14k and holding. Buyers and sellers finding balance (finally!).

[triads]

More importantly, we are getting price divergence with the other cryptos. Ripple moving down, Ethereum moving up, while Bitcoin is moving sideways. Investors are starting to distinguish between coin specifics.

Update is about the last one BTF :
It seems that the exchange is opened and the source available, BUT note on the source says you should wait for release 0.15, master branch is not supposed to work.
Bitpie supports BTF but you can't redeem your private keys with it.  Bither doesn't support BTF yet.
update of the update: I tried the fullnode wallet : it needs libsodium too and it doesn't download the blockchain (yet)
