Nice, thanks for sharing. I do believe that the Bitcoin Massive Black Hole will mesmerize all the crap alt in the next years. That is going to require a huge load of popcorns

This is true. As Bitcoin continues to live on though, it will be the younger, newer generations of Average Joe that takes a chance with Bitcoin. They come into the working world with more disdain for the existing financial structure, less debt (except student loans), less skepticism of Bitcoin, less to lose and everything to gain.

Grandma and Grandpa ain't coming in droves, sorry. Grandma and Grandpa can't even afford to buy Precious Metals anymore, much less Bitcoin. Plus the MSM has mindfucked them to believe that Bitcoin is a scam.

Get the fuck out of here with your nonsense proclamation that regular Joes cannot afford bitcoin.  

They only believe that they cannot afford bitcoin, which seems to tie in with your overall point that they are being mindfucked by mainstream media.

Ultimately, you and I are likely pretty close to agreeing, and probably I am merely quibbling with the mixture of your nonsense points that are embedded into your other relatively decent points.      

Nah, I think you are just quibbling. I still stand by what I said. With the exception of Jimbo and maybe a few other guys here over the age of 60, most I have met have zero interest in Bitcoin. They think it's a scam created by the gubmint to get everyone into their "centralized digital currency" in order to control them. They don't trust it. They trust PMs more. Plus a lot of baby boomers are just flat broke and in debt. They are spending all their money on bills and trying to enjoy life.

If you go younger, in the 40-50 yr old range, you find a lot of guys that are just flat out hostile towards Bitcoin, like it threatens their very way of life or something. You should of heard the vitriol that my (former) Accountant was spewing about Bitcoin in 2013. Thank god I didn't listen to that idiot and dumped him. Most guys in that age range I've talked to simply scoff and laugh at the notion of buying any bitcoin.

I believe that you have to go down to the under-35 crowd before you start finding many people with an open mind toward Bitcoin...

It becomes harder to learn and consider new ideas the older you get. It's like cement, in the beginning it fills whatever form it's in. It starts getting dry and you can maybe put a handprint in it or something. Then it hardens into rock.

My grandpa couldn't figure out a cell phone. We gave him one, told him push the green button when it rings. He couldn't do it. Just how it goes.

If there is any hope left of turning the culture around, it lies with the young.

(A) Delete more posts trying to steer the conversation away from Bitcoin
(B) Delete more offensive posts (nazi-related, etc.)
(C) Both of the above / general increase in moderation needed
(D) The moderation has been fine
(E) We need less moderation / pure anarchy
(F) We need a new thread moderator

I voted (D), because I know I couldn't do any better than Infofront. A thankless job, almost invisible if swiftly managed. I would also like a few more distracting posts deleted - in the direction of (B), not A or C. The problem is drawing a straight line and, more importantly, spending the energy - physical and emotional - to implement it. Calling him out is really a bit unforgiving.

Let's be honest: We all do take turns in engaging such unsavoury characters. I agree that the auto-propagation of /ignore's to direct quotes would be quite useful.

TL;DR Necessary evil. Deal with it. Use that button if you must.

Bitcoin is not just about money and tech, it's a cultural shift. Nazis are part of that. Get over it already.

Prince Phillip would agree with so many cousins in the nazi family.
And then of course His wifes grandfather George who conspired to have his cousin Nicholas the Tsar overun by boshelviks
Needs his say too
So weird

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Saxe-Coburg_and_Gotha

The House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha is a German dynasty  ... sentiment in the United Kingdom during World War I, George V changed the name of his branch from "Saxe-Coburg and Gotha" to "Windsor" in 1917.


Always 1917, all happens in 1917 (weird)

First of all, I am not attempting to bait anyone... You are just too fucking emotional...

It feels like the citizens of Wall Observer start to get bored... I have a feeling the price will start to do things! Nasty things!!!

Hahahahahaha... nice one, Ibian.

Trying to assert that Nazi-ism is not only related to bitcoin, but serves some kind of important spot in the whole scheme of bitcoin relevance...   Gotta give you a bit of credit for your creativity on that one, even though your point remains a bit of a stretch, especially the way those kinds of topics are frequently presented in this thread....

[JayJuanGee]

$19,666 on that same date (December 16, 2017)... since we use Bitstamp in these here parts as our BTC ATH price reference point.

Get the fuck outta here with your 'we' nonsense.
You don't get to dictate what I do.



See? I do what I like.

[Globb0]

Remember the good ol' days when this was the place to find out wtf was happening with the price?

Realdoll detected.

They have really done well to recreate the awkward silence of a real wife


Also, I saw this a few days ago. Really shocking.

TV news mind control in action. Stick to the script!

You got me on that one.. but I am sticking with my prior claims...  

Perhaps some of us can stay in a decent mood, as long as BTC prices don't devolve too much from here (including the seeming upward rising wedge that is currently in the charts), but if "we" get another decently-sized price dip (perhaps below $6,500?), there may be a few more mudfights that involve naked flying.



It is not going to be no fat and happy mudfight, neither.  



TLDR:  perhaps if BTC prices stay above $7k, decently positive WO normie moods can be preserved...

[Last of the V8s]

Yeah sorry, creepy mud boy, I am almost permanently grumpy right now. Waiting for a new hip lol.

Meanwhile, lots of traders predicting a bump up vs. washpo fudpiece going around = Bezos accumulating == more sideways?

I expected a dump to 7000 this weekend, but it seems the things started to move already...

Let's celebrate the Phi Day today! Shout out to all technical analysts here.

Math Geeks Must Wait 100 Years for a Day Like This

What makes today so special? The date -- 1/6/18 1  -- lines up with the first four digits of the golden ratio, a mathematical constant that’s roughly equal to 1.618 and is commonly denoted by the Greek letter phi, which looks a bit like the letter "p" but with an extra loop on the left-hand side of the vertical axis.

i voted B by mistake (sorry, lack of coffee) as after thinking a moment i would change to D if i could.

we all know what the ignore button does, thats all we need. as we all have different things that offend us we really cant expect someone to arbitrarily decide for us.

the current level of moderation is fine.
