I want to know how this has happened so quick. Like the removal of sell orders and the buying is all coordinated at the same time. Is this one person buying or did the whole market just change their mind due to some news event (what is it)?

Nobody on the planet would be dumb enough to put their money on Bitfinex with their past exit scam + tether scam, so it's entirely the Bitfinex owners trading back and forth with himself trying to rig the market with an exchange where no buying or selling actually takes place.
You would think that, but BCC bounced as well. Didn't Einstein go on about how the stupidity of humans is potentially infinite? I'm surprised he made such a modest estimate. Guess the lack of connectivity left some tiny sliver of "benefit of the doubt".

If $24,777 isn't reached for years does that mean we still see this spam every day?

How do I trade the news that the govt of El Salvador does not want any of it's 200,000 population Trump is deporting and is trying to dump it's own citizens in a random Arab country in the middle east called Qatar instead?

Why would China not ban bitcoin?  How does bitcoin help China in ANY way even if they wanted to use it?

They have 1 billion fucking people and bitcoin doesn't scale to service a small town with one gas station, let alone China.  This thread is mostly a giant echo chamber of technically illiterate people, so they don't know Lightning Network can't function in a decentralized manner whatsoever (not that bitcoin itself functions decentralized either).  Before he became a scammer and disappeared, people who actually know what they're talking about like Death&Taxes mentioned problems like this too.  

I recently explained 10x better why LN is a complete dead end unless your goal is to recreate the already existing banks:

Even if every crypto was heavily centralized and functioned as a digital central bank, it'd still be far more decentralized than traditional CBs are, simple by virtue of being interchangeable instantaneously. Don't like what the miners on the Bitcoin network are doing? Or the major stakeholders? Flip over to another crypto in the blink of an eye. You do not have this option with government and CB controlled fiat currencies.

And luckily cryptos are not centralized and will be further decentralized as the mainstream starts adopting them.
You're also completely neglecting the fact that a bunch of centralized hubs can very well coexist with a decentralized base layer, while also completely ignoring the fact that this is just the first solution for the current very real problems with scaling. In the future, just like exchanges, something like LN might very well end up returning to full decentralization.

And there's more to crypto than just Bitcoin, which renders your argument regarding China entirely redundant.

You completely ignored the fact that China and Russia are both very clearly going back to precious metals as money.  So again, why would they let the west derail their plan with these centralized, imaginary tokens that don't even scale when metals are far better for them and more sound as money anyway?

The bank gives you 1% interest for storing money on it, while it asks 10x that from one taking debt from it.

Do you see this happening with bitcoin? All I see is 1000% interest, you having control and responsibility over your own money and new technologies that can destroy the credit card oligopoly in the future.

There are some altcoins with lending systems, but they are very obscure and few people will use them. With bitcoin we finish usury as we know it.

You talk so much about jews, but you are defending the system which supports them.

God, I'd love to know how roach's brain is working so efficiently at neglecting any information that is not in compliance with his views and believes. It's astounding.

There's only one thing you need to understand about bitcoin.  Everyone on this forum is nothing more than a random slob who has purchased a lottery ticket hoping to participate in a get rich quick scheme.  Where the rubber hits the road is when you have people who have worked on some Foxconn assembly line their whole lives and have to choose how to store their life savings.  For anyone not trying to participate in a get rich quick scheme, they view this stuff as nothing more than sketchy, worthless fiat 2.0.

Unlike the economically illiterate west, the Chinese aren't idiots about money.  Yea, they like to gamble, but they're not going to store their life savings in imaginary dogecoins.  Most of the people posting here are delusional gamblers, or conmen trying to trick fixed-income retirees into buying their latest pump and dump scam.  Like most pump and dumps, they will trick a few people and rob them blind, but the majority of people left holding the bag will be the gamblers themselves.

No, cryptocurrency is not some paradigm shift.  They're all designed to centralize, so every single thing in this entire sector is nothing more than a permissioned ledger, federated chain in the end, like Ripple already is now.  And they can't scale, except when fully converted to federated chains anyway.  It doesn't matter how much hand waving and bullshit you bugmen try to fabricate, there is no type of monetary instrument on this planet that removes middlemen and counter party risk besides physical, commodity based money like silver or gold (or physically carrying around lumber or oil if you want to go that route, but nobody does, so metals always win Exter's Pyramid in the end).

Just like with computers, it's possible to install anti-reality filters in people's brains so they only see what they want to see and anything else gets filtered out. Any time a conflicting thought comes in, it's blocked and redirected to porn or something.

The real fun comes when you start hacking with a person's microcode. Then you can change who they are.......
