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

[jojo69]

I have been very critical of Mark in the past, but I have come to believe that he never intended to hurt anyone.

It is still within his power to redeem himself.

[oblox]

Why does it always seem blocks move slower when you actually need to send money... yeesh.

Like giving away 10% of his fortune to make all his investors whole again in USD terms?

[HairyMaclairy]

I left gox months before the collapse to margin trade on finex. Then I left finex days before it got hacked. Im really lucky.

I was caught by the Finex hack.  Fortunately the vast majority of my BTC were off-exchange so I didn’t lose much in the end.

No, that wouldn't do it.

I am going to refrain from judging him until he has full freedom of action and his intentions become clear.

Ummm no.  ETC actually is the unforked version. I think a letter to the NIST is in order.

Fuck me, what is it with these arseholes. A softfork is now a hardfork and a hardfork is now a softfork. It's because of dickheads like these that bitcoin needs to succeed and be ultimate champion. Bcash is the tool of the globalists, something they created, and can control. It's a centralized shitcoin, nothing else.

NIST, would have written it intentionally. anything that is .gov is pretty much against BTC.

Ummm no.  ETC actually is the unforked version. I think a letter to the NIST is in order.

that is what I said, yes, ETC is the original chain

Yeah, ETC is actually "Ethereum Core". But effectively it's the primary Ethereum version because they had to deal with the hacking somehow.

is that guy still waiting outside his office with a coffee?   

[oda.krell]

Ethereum keeps creeping up and taking over market share. Will ethereun slowly take over bitcoin? Kinda seems like its possible

I think there's a decent chance precisely that will happen within the next ~6 months or less.

That said, the market cap is mostly a meaningless metric anyway, largely an artifact of the ratio of total coin supply vs. traded supplies.

That said, if and when the overtakening happens, meaningless as it maybe be in fundamental terms, I do expect some noticeable market reaction.
