I’m jealous, it’s cold, raining & really windy here in the UK today, dark at 5pm too. Winter is coming and it sucks.

Enjoy the sun Jimbo, I sure as hell would swap places right now.

If you ever had a Bitcoin address associated with your account you can always sign a message with that key as proof.

He did, it matched. It seems no accounts are being recovered since before the summer even if you follow the procedure. Bummer.

Theymos said he's hoping to re-start up manually recovering accounts sooner or later. However, he also said Cyrus was still doing some last summer. It's probably best to contact Cyrus for now, but expect a long wait becaue the backlog must be massive.

...

It would take at least a couple hours every day to deal with them. Each case typically requires a lot of follow-up. And it's really annoying work. I used to do them sort-of regularly, but at some point I just couldn't stand it anymore, in addition to not really having time. Cyrus is still doing some, though not enough to keep up.

...

I acknowledge that the current situation is very bad, and we have some plans for fixing it. I hope to have manual account reviews going smoothly again before the end of the year at the latest.

Looking back on my visit to Liverpool, it was 40-odd years ago. The cathedrals and the Mersey really were awe-inspiring, the community impressive. I went for a school project on some weird Catholic thing (the Turin Shroud), and there was an expert to consult in that very Catholic city. So I stayed in the priests' house. Me a very beautiful young man obviously, and they with their ... ways. How I came away with my virginity intact is, now I think about it, quite ironically a miracle.

Gonna have to fire over your 1500th Merit there for making me laugh.
I’m Catholic (well was made one by my family - I haven’t been to Church aside from funerals, weddings or christenings since I was about 15).

I was an altar boy in primary school too & no I wasn’t fucked in the ass by a Priest either.

Bitcoin false breaks to 6500+ , it should be supported at 6300 and try again for a break higher

If trend line support breaks at 6300, 6150 would be next.

Aww fuck I just checked the price when did we dip down and how did I not notice?

Do you guys think this could be related to the SEC / Etherdelta case and the fact that the SEC said it would take a closer look at other exchanges ?

No it’s just the BCH pump starting to unwind.  We might get one more pump out of it by the 15th but it should be mostly finished.  Tears and recriminations can come later.  

I would target 62xx or 61xx on 16 November. 

Let's just say hypothetically that the BCH fork(s) takes place on November 15, as anticipated.  Surely, that is not a unreasonable hypothesis, and it seems to have greater than a 70% chance of happening, based on current posturings (I am kind of assuming that there is enough backing of faktoshi to actually follow through with his bombastic nonsense).

Then, if such fork really happens, then wouldn't bitcoin actually experience upwards price pressures, rather than downwards based on a kind of resolution of some of the uncertainty - especially seeing how it plays out. 

On the other hand, if the fork does not happen, the such nonhappening might not bring as much certainty, unless there is a clear indication that such fork(s) have been cancelled rather than postponed.  Then also such nonhappening of bcash forks might cause pompening of bcash - as if, all of a sudden bcash has acquired some street cred and actual fundamental value - beyond enduring as a mess of an amalgamation of effervescent disgruntles.

You think people are converting BTC to BCH ahead of their shit fork to get their free shitcoin’s & then convert back into BTC to increase their BTC stashes?

I thought about converting 1 or 2 BTC into BCH ahead of the fork to try & be clever but I just don’t want to fuck about & risk it.

Yeah... don't let greed get in the way of prudence, because you never know which way any of the nonsense is going to go in the shitcoin space, either short term or even medium term - even though chances remain pretty decent that the vast majority of shit coins will go near or close to zero, but it could take 20years to play out such recognition of their fundamental quasi-vaporware bullshitness.. which is not the amount of time or energy that you should be spending on such bets.. when you have much more positive and solid energy in bitcoin and the various projects built around bitcoin.

Because the media, and legacy finances including banking, and 99% of the political establishment are all on the left. We are on the right. That's why.

Just curious, do you think that’s correct? Most of us are on the right here? Personally I lean slightly towards far right.

I do not lean to the authoritarian right.

Neither do I lean toward the authoritarian left.

Make of it what you will.
