Stop spreading FUD, take a crypto holiday.

My blockchain analysis puts him heading off to a beach in Patagonia. He must be on holiday already.

OT: I don't quite understand MP's holy war against Core/SegWit. If anyone has an opinion, or a link so I don't have to go fishing, that'd be cool.

I just read the beginning of it and the guy is an idiot, he's a scammer and he would be correct if he was talking about 99% of the ICOs out there but his argument is analogous to sell your USD because most stocks are scams. Context is everything and he has ZERO context. Unless of course he is connected with a accumulation consort and is playing the FUD game.

I guess there's no other way than ordering the BTC rollercoaster for me    

Is it going to be too much to ask for no shots of that toilet paper when it's in actual use?


BTW it looks to me like the last poll has had the effect of causing this poll to be answered in a more truthful manner.
I believe it is spot on, but then again "I don't know".

There's also a CNBC video somewhere (I saw it back in 2017) where Belfort says exactly this : "Well there would be no need for Bitcoin at all if you, me, anyone could download their favorite company stock and put it on a thumb drive."

So much wrong with that statement it's hard to even know where to start. He's clearly an uninformed idiot when it comes to Bitcoin, not even yet at the Mt. Stupid level of knowledge. And he's confusing two very different things.

Plus, you just gotta love the MSM. "Hey, let's get respected billionaires like Jamie Dimon, Warren Buffett, and Bill Gates to call Bitcoin a fraud. And if the public won't listen to them, then let's the get Wallstreet's greatest scammer Jordan Belfort to call Bitcoin a fraud too. They'll be hearing that it's a fraud from both ends of the spectrum!"

It has been said, that bitcoins that have and will go through segwit will be blacklisted. I think there is no need worry about. Three reasons.

First. Bitcoin blockchain is anyway transparent, so every coin can be blacklisted for any invented reason, have they gone through segwit or not.

Second. Segwit will be used anyway. So finally most, or every coin will go through them. So every coin will be blacklisted. Blacklisting kind of a looses it significance.

Third. Atomic swaps. Traders will use atomic swaps to trade for each other. Back and forth. They are not worried about are they able to use the coins on some shop where they could be rejected by a blacklist. Traders will use them just for trading. So traders do not care if coins are blacklisted.


Question about tradingview.com.

When I change the time scale like 1 day to 3 month or a year, the candle width also changes. And vice versa. Why? Like when I select three months view, a got 1 hour candles, then when I select 4 hour candles a got a one year view. Why?

Not sure I get your question.
It tries to make a decent-looking chart when you change timescale. suggest just use the candle selctor and then you can zoom in or out with the mouse wheel... drag the thing about a bit

You got it right.

The mouse wheel works. Thank you.

I agree that it is interesting how each of us has differing factors, and even differing entrance points that change how we weigh the factors.  I recognize that even with miners there is a certain speculative aspect, and sometimes the variations in speculation can provide some explanation to the seemingly exponentially increasing hash rate that does not necessarily correlate with BTC price.  So, some miners, even smaller players, have greater abilities to cushion themselves from volatility or to speculate that even if there are periods of mining at low profits or even a loss, that future prices could more than make up for the low profits/loss periods.  Also, some experiential aspect of mining can cause someone to want to continue to mine and to contribute, learn and interact with the crypto space, even though strictly speaking there could be more profits (and mobility/liquidity) from merely buying the various coins instead of mining them.  Further, hahahaha.. the lottery aspect of mining a variety of coins in which some of them could upwardly explode and to off-set the costs/losses of mining some of the other coins. 

i like tinkering with electronic stuff, been building PCs since the 90s or so. and mining (as a hobby), while not for everyone, does have some advantages, like mine a new coins that are not on the main (read: more or less trustworthy) exchanges yet. since my rig is paid off i can play around with the different alts at bit. although mostly i mine to the most profitable (for example mainly eth at the moment) and exchange all of what i mine for btc, with some coins that i think may go up more relative to btc in the near(ish) future i will sell enough to pay electric and keep the rest for speculation. if it goes up, exchange to btc, if not oh well it was house money anyway.

its fun being in crypto. totally new concepts that could be game changers, cool toys, drama that is occasionally interesting, learning new things, maybe make some money. what could go wrong heh. and we get to play in this space.

Exactamente!!!!!   I can relate. 

My reasons for not getting into mining is largely because I am attempting to transition into a more mobile existence for myself.  I have had such a transition to mobile vision since about 2013 and partly getting into bitcoin based on such motivations.  Whether I am successful to increase my mobility, or not (because there seems to be some properties (and familial) connections that I am  disinclined to shake), it remains good for me to continue with such a "more mobile" vision of myself and my activities.  If I did not have such a "more mobile" vision/goal set, I would have likely attempted such a mining practice too - because I am a little bit of a gadget person, and I do like some of the aspects of being able to learn more by engaging and interacting... similar to my historically buying little electronic gadgets that had helped me to exercise more than if I had not purchased such gadgets.
