Fucking Bitcorn. Last week of the quarter, and no fucking way I'm selling 4 digit USD Bitcorns.
Here's hoping for a miracle over the next 4 days, folks.
British people have a little longer.... anyone selling before April 6th will need to pay their capital gains tax in January 2019. If they sell after April 6th, they won’t need to pay the CGT until January 2020. Some people will split their sales between the two dates because if they sell too many (pushing them into a higher tax rate) they will be liable for 28% tax instead of 20%. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/pay-the-tax-you-owe-on-a-capital-gain-straight-away(Title is misleading.... straight away... No!)

The bottom is when...it can't go any lower. As shown by Zimbabwe and Venezeula, the bottom of fiat is zero. The ancient Greeks are all gone, but their money didn't go anywhere, hence a bottom much higher than zero. Bitcoin, on the other hand, has no such redeeming qualities, and it's bottom is the same as fiat - zero. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FWjXE1o7.jpg&t=665&c=5P1jHm4myg0F4g) Offcourse This is how iT works When the mind isn’t evolved with the time Where we are linving in...... When intelligence reaches the bottom, its not possible to see the more advanced and decentralized future we are entering these days ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) You should stop lying. Spamming lies does not make them true. You can spam the word "decentralized" all you want like some type of late night infomercial conman, but that does not make it so. All cryptocurrency are designed to centralize through either economy of scale, compound interest, or other means. It is not possible to create a decentralized cryptocurrency. The only way would be to use unprofitable PoW just like email PoW, but unprofitable PoW is an unworkable solution in practice and requires forced convergence. A blockchain is not some type of magical 8th wonder of the world. All it is is a ledger that requires a focal point for convergence. The focal point is always something like stake, raw hash power expenditure (which is nothing more than externalized stake in practice), or some other variable that can be quantified where I can say that I have more of it than you do. Where exactly do you see "decentralization" arising from such a paradigm? You would need to be a fool to think so. The only way such an idea would not be laughable at face value is if everyone who uses the system was required to be a miner, but that's obviously not possible due to massive monetary and intellectual capital required in creating chip foundries and the fact people can corner said technology and not share it. Even if you could design it that way, the Pareto principle would still destroy it decentralization-wise anyway. It's 100% not possible to create a decentralized digital currency.

We're close to the bottom
How often has the bottom now been called and got broken? He who looks into the abyss realizes that there’s nothin' looking back at him and the only thing he sees is his own character, Lost-mein-schtuffen. You understand? Bud? The abyss? The #ShitAbyss? That sounds like the time I stared at my bunghole in the mirror. A blockchain is not some type of magical 8th wonder of the world. All it is is a ledger that requires a focal point for convergence.

I've been considering installing a Gopro in my toilet bowl as there are some very strange things going on down there, down there on me, not the toilet itself. I might wait for 8K though just to really pinpoint the exact problem.

It is still worth splitting sells between now and after April 6th in order to take advantage of two lots of £11k tax free allowances and the benefit of not paying until 2020.

"The printing press isn't some magical wonder of the world. It just applies ink to paper." The printing press works as advertised; bitcoin does not. I already typed why: You can spam the word "decentralized" all you want like some type of late night infomercial conman, but that does not make it so. All cryptocurrency are designed to centralize through either economy of scale, compound interest, or other means. It is not possible to create a decentralized cryptocurrency.

Nah. I encourage everyone to do what I do which is to burn your post and ideally not have an address to send it to.

I might wait for 8K though just to really pinpoint the exact problem. Heh, just noticed "Gopro" sounds almost exactly like "copro"... ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) After reading your post I wonder if its just a coincidence?? Amazing to see the diversity of topics inspired by crypto, and specially by the current market movements... ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

I've got a piece of a theory: silver has moved heavily into industrial usage such as electronics, phones, military, etc. and the Powers That Be want to keep it cheap as possible forever. Incidentally and despite our resident roach shill, I've been accumulating some for sure.

Huh, your post made me notice "Gopro" sounds almost exactly like "copro"... ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) Is it just a coincidence?? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Hey, you just opened up a whole new market and crypto opens the door to Chinese tech and plagarism plus Japan's global lead in toilet technology to draw on. You should also open a Twitch-style live streaming channel broadcasting from the bottom of toilets around the world.
