The Hairy Channel Observer continues. We are consistently sitting in the top half of the channel. Above $12k would be the second upward breakout since the bottom.

I would be fine with another Bcash pump. I am finally settled down in one place where I can take the time to pull out my cold storage wallets and convert my BCH to BTC.
So pump that shit up to .2 BTC for me please.

Bitcoin is up 4.5% today GBTC is down 4.72% today, shrinking that premium (by 10% in one day).
Interesting.

Topic: The fabled GMO cards from Japan will be contract only... whip-round? Sure. If they guarantee uptime and hashrate backed by a bank guarantee and the numbers stack up. The operational fee "TBD" is just an invitation to go negotiate with them directly.

Elwar: can you create colored coins or ERC-20 style tokens?
Colored coins might be possible but a smart contract would still be required. I wouldn't use an ethereum token because I don't want to go down that path and confuse users with ethereums.

That's when I will start to have real fun. Looking forward to your research in 2019. haha, I wish. I know it is perfectly possible that we do have another 10x in 2018 but.... something makes me hard to believe I will be so lucky. Wouldnt even care to wait a few more years for that. Not even if that means 10 years. ANyway, whenever that happens you have my word you will see some exploits on my name (responsible disclosure ofc).

Colored coins might be possible but a smart contract would still be required. I wouldn't use an ethereum token because I don't want to go down that path and confuse users with ethereums. Great. Let me explain myself. Global equity markets are going to slowly transition onto public blockchains. It’s going to start this year. We need to be able to offer equity instruments (eg shares) on Bitcoin or a side chain or second layer. If we don’t, another public blockchain will fill the hole. The Gibraltar Stock Exchange will probably be the first to offer regulated securities on a public blockchain. Others will follow quickly. Eventually LSE, NYSE etc will see the writing on the wall.

Bitcoin.com is not a scam, it is a URL. What is scammy about that? Further, in what way does the existence of such make me a scammer?
jbreher, just stop it. By definition in the Whitepaper Bitcoin is the chain with greatest accumulated PoW. Any defense of Ver's scamming attempt with the site that carries Bitcoin + ".com" in the URL to confuse the newbies in mixing up BTC and BCash is just insulting the intelligence of everyone here. You may pretend it's not obvious scam to you, but nobody believes you. Your posts show enough intelligence that you can not be that naive, you are either trolling or have some agenda with Roger, both very irritating. Don't turn yourself into a laughing stock light that silver fetishists whom no one believes he has no agenda, but spreads metal propaganda here out of his true love for our well being.

jbreher, just stop it. By definition in the Whitepaper Bitcoin is the chain with greatest accumulated PoW. I disagree. It is the longest valid chain. What is valid is up to the collective of users, and different users can have different preferences. Luckily, there is a clear leader in terms of number of users and market cap. However, if bitcoin (core) and bitcoin cash had an equal amount of supporters, we might have a hard time determining which one would be named bitcoin.

This is not difficult.

jbreher, just stop it. By definition in the Whitepaper Bitcoin is the chain with greatest accumulated PoW. I disagree. Bitcoin White paper, first paragraph, Abstract: Abstract. ..., accepting the longest proof-of-work chain as proof of what happened while they were gone. Source: https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdfI don't get how can you disagree with the definition? Edit: Section 4. is even more explicit: The majority decision is represented by the longest chain, which has the greatest proof-of-work effort invested in it. If this isn't proof that using the word "Bitcoin" for anything other then BTC is a scam, I don't know what is.

Source: https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdfI don't get how can you disagree with the definition? First of all, I don't read the white paper as gospel. But even if you do, also in abstract: "As long as a majority of CPU power is controlled by nodes that are not cooperating to attack the network, they'll generate the longest chain and outpace attackers." Therefore the abstract itself already says that the longest chain rule is conditional.
