To the extent that most alts had any merit at all it was as a way to scale crypto payments laterally to compensate for the inability of bitcoin to serve as a payment vehicle. With LN rolling out I would say a lot of them have no reason to exist. All things being equal then we should expect to see dominance rise. Of course, in the real world, all things are never equal.

A scamming scumbag.
Roger emailed Bity threatening to remove them from their website (bitcoin.com) if they don't start offering Bcash.
Bity response; no one uses Bcash in Switzerland...

Gets a few hundred million and turns into an egomaniac. He may be a big fish in this pond but the dude is a guppy on the global game of thrones. He doesn't seem to have any idea just how small he is compared to people with, not just wealth, but wealth that comes as a byproduct of real power. If he did, he wouldn't act like such an arrogant asshole all the time. I wish he would just fall into the ocean or something so I would never have to see his smug face again.*edit* I know it's stupid. I should say something more substantive. But the way he speaks and acts bugs me more than any other human being alive. That perfect mix of autism and narcissism is like a cheese grater on my senses. /rantoff

The players are known, the cards have been dealt and he doubled down. So at this point he has no option but to play out his hand i.e. continue doing what he's doing. The crappy part is bcash's funding (life support?) comes from Ver's BTC reserves and Bitmain. Unfortunately both benefit when BTC goes up, so unless BTC crashes hard or trades sideways for a very long time, the funding to prop bcash will continue to pour in.

I think maybe you are thinking about it wrong. It's a 0 sum game. People think of bcash as relative to bitcoin not dollars. If bcash goes up marginally in dollar terms while bitcoin explodes in dollar terms no one calls that a bull market for bcash. So maybe bitcoin goes up giving him more money to pump into bcash, but at the same time bcash requires more and more funds in order to keep up with bitcoin if bitcoin has gone up.

Ah, are the players well known

But what if there is a complete collapse of BCH and stolen coins returned.

The whole reason alts exploded goes back to the first LTC pump. People got it in their head that when bitcoin pumps, alts pump harder. But, just like any "known" trend, once it is known, it doesn't work anymore. Alts need to beat bitcoin on pumps consistently to make up for the risk of holding the shit. It isn't really happening on this pump and that may very well spell the end for 90% of the alts when all the dust settles.

In the crazy world of ours LTC is considered a slow mover.

Current price surge for Bitcoin is mainly based on ETF hype.

Alts are not included in a Bitcoin ETF.

But likely if it's a rules change that allows Bitcoin to get ETF approval, other alts will try to get ETF approval.

The SEC then becomes the gatekeeper of which alts rise with Bitcoin.

A small dump ,enough to see tera coming back ??

Which is why we won’t get a Bitcoin ETF.  SEC doesn’t want the headache of a Bcash lol ETF or a Ripple ETF.

Most likely with predictions of $3,000 bitcoin’s or something like that.

[Last of the V8s]

At least one of the ETF applications is indeed for a basket of 10 coins.

We could have gone that low. We could still go that low. Don't count your chickens until they've hatched, I say. $6,000 seemed nonsense at $19,000. How soon we forget.

Yeah. I'll bet the SEC rue the day any crypto darkened their doorway.

They're now snowed under with memes, 'YU no listings Rapecoin FUK U' emails and no doubt plenty of sneering from their old school buddies.

If I was running it I'd have a 'crypto ETF application' link on the site pointing to a page with nothing but this on it.

I’m hoping we’re out of the woods now but any ETF rejection (which is likely imo) will likely stop any upwards movement. Then again we said that last time yet it was rejected but we still headed to $19,xxx

[El duderino_]

how many % would be in favor for an ETF approval ?

most in here saying its gonna be refused for at least a year or so.....

[Rosewater Foundation]

Eeeteee-eff. It's like a magical incantation at this point.

yesterday seen the new ant-man.... there been said not crypto and other things but quantum tech is the big future

Now I am sure we will get ETF. If everyone in this forum was sure then I would have my doubts. Usually it happens exactly the opposite to the predominant opinion here
