Someone keeps putting a 100-200 coin buy order right at the current market price on Gox, and moving the order up as the price rises. Choo choo?

I'm not convinced that mBTC is a good idea. Seems like some people just want to fool the market and noobs into thinking that bitcoins are cheaper than they are. One thing about Bitcoin is that it is the first 100% honest money. If it costs $1100 for each coin, then so be it!
I think it's evolution, not just for the noobs. Unless you look at it as commodity, not money. When my friends ask me how much have I paid for something in BTC, answering something like 0.055 sounds geeky, but that doesn't serve a purpose. I think its fine for websites and shops to use mBTC. But the exchanges are a different story. Google shares are $1050, Platinum oz is $1350, Berkshire Hathaway shares are $172k. Let's see Bitcoin pass this sucker: http://finance.yahoo.com/q?d=t&s=BRK-AI agree with this. I think there should at least be a link on bitcoinity to switch back. I personally don't like it so much. I looked at the live ticker and thought holy shit, someone just bought 13,000 bitcoins.. .. no, wait.. ah right. Confusing for my poor hungover noodle this morning. Also, when i looked over and saw a volume spike on Dec 1-2 for 50 Million.. i was also like.. whoah.. that's a lot... no.. wait a min. Would be nice to at least have the option for the old way too. |

Anybody else really, really surprised by the poll results? I mean, I'm very bullish (despite not really being a trader, just someone who has a non-life changing amount of BTC) and I think there's a small chance indeed that Bitcoin won't be superseded by the time the price is $30,000. I'm not saying "sell now" at all - I think there's a long way left for Bitcoin - but $30,000 would be my prediction for, like, 2025, by which time I'm sure that there'll be a more dominant cryptocoin around. But as I said earlier, I'm a novice to this game, so please take my comments as mere speculation, not advice to more serious players  |

Transfer times will become insane though if usage keeps growing at current rate, things have to be streamlined.

... those are the considerations encapsulated by the big 'IF' |

Less than $15 behind gold now, and no resistance in the books. This time we're going to fly past it rather than bouncing off like the last two times.

And we are through... and climbing...choo choo. Plus... is there a thread that follows the news about the 90k bitcoin stolen from sheep market?
The subreddit for Sheep follows the news pretty closely. I think what the bitcoin bandit could do is syphon off couple of hundred coins at a time, and just dump them on some of the latest transactions addresses to appear in bitcoin blockchain. Imagine if you checked your wallet, and found your balance had 200 extra coins. Would you go and find out where they came from and politely return them. Or would you rush to an exchange and cash em out. And of course, he now makes a bunch of strangers targets for the bitcoin mobsters whose money he stole. |
