Bitcoin and Crypto Market CRASH - Will History Repeat on Nov 15th?

Yup. BCH, in the form of SV, is midway through demonstrating that:
- so-called 'nodes' don't matter
- miners decide, restrained only by the threat of users abandoning the chain
- forks can be just an upgrade mechanism - decisively, if backed by hash
- the most proof of work chain matters

But what doesn't seem to matter is actual user adoption, merchant adoption, investor interest, anyone really giving a shit, etc.

Sez you. The SV team says different. They have a realistic plan for widescale adoption. Meanwhile, Core is drinking 'chamapaign' at $50 tx fees.

holy dump. i better dont want to know what happened today. at least there is finally some volume :p

ok support tested, now back to 8k+ please

[infofront]

What happened? I thought you people were bitcoins first line of defense? Why are you all sleeping on the job?

What do you mean "you people"?!

[HI-TEC99]

What happened? I thought you people were bitcoins first line of defense? Why are you all sleeping on the job?

Because you aren't wearing a hat.

There is no us.
There is you spouting drivel about scamcoins being good for anything other than enriching scammers and defrauding the stupid.
My point was about current affairs having as much effect on the market as your shitcoins.
Bubbles come and go in bitcoin, and they'll get bigger mostly because of its innate limited supply.

Wtf?
There is no us? Don't worry, I never thought there was lol.
My point was that having the number 2 coin on the market price go up can only benefit everyone. Nothing more.
And I'm a holder too so I don't worry at all, I'm just like everybody, I prefer a higher price for BTC.

NOT...

There' s where your thinking goes wrong.

You outwardly state your presumption that there is benefit with ETH, you spout such beliefs in this BTC thread and also seem to be attempting to grant ETH some kind of equivalency to BTC by asserting it as "number 2"

I would say "get the fuck out of here with that.... blah blah blah" but the idea already seems implied in what I already said, so I will HODL myself back.

Tittie coin had a realistic plan for widescale adoption, but it didn't work.

So all of this crash was because 2 guys and some more are fighting on twitter over hash power? Ridiculous market.

Damn, I hate it when I’m the problem.

Its the same impact as a president tweeting something about any company.

[jbreher]

So you back the SV camp?  

I have a slight preference for the SV branch of the fork, this is true. Emergent consensus on the block size, restore the original opcodes, eliminate churn of pie in the sky, dev driven, so-called 'innovation' with no proven value (more properly, 'lets throw it against the wall, and see if it sticks'). Check.

I could have lived with the ABC fork, probably. At least it would be free of The SegWit Omnibus Changeset trojan. But what with 'benevolent dictator' calling for preparing an emergency PoW change... just no fucking way.

Personally I think Monero is much closer to "Saatoshi's Vision" than anything CW has anything to do with...

I think you are way past cracked out. I like Monero as well. But I have no delusions of it being anything near closer to satoshi's vision. Make the case for me?

Uncle Craig is about to dump bitcoin to $1k!

At least he's a nice guy, wishing us all a nice day.

A nice day for mass suicides.

Interesting thread on Squire Mining (nChain's mining operation)

TLDR:

... Soooooo now we can tie it all together and we can see that Squire Mining is really just a mineral mining company who is BUYING pre-fab ASICs constructed by Gaonchips and is pretending like somehow that production line can compete with @BITMAINtech.

[HairyMaclairy]

Ummm fuck.

I go offline for a few hours and come back to a ton of new money in my account and find out I am now in a long position.

It’s clearly been an interesting day.  Putting some stop losses in under the lowest point of the dip but somehow don’t think I will need them.   Up from here, at least for the next couple of days. 

[bitcoinPsycho]

I blame Bcash

"Craig Wright says he has an exploit to take down Bitcoin (BTC) by end of 2019. Does he? Or all talk?"

https://youtu.be/4TOnHAlI_Vg

WTF? I hope it's just Craig Wright talking out of his ass...

CSW's whole thing is to exploit how people tend to believe that things aren't total lies. So when he says he's Satoshi, people think "Well, I don't believe he's Satoshi, but maybe he knew Satoshi". Or "He failed to destroy BTC with mining power like he said he would last year, but maybe he still actually has a bunch of mining capacity hidden away somewhere." Or "There's no technical way for him to irrecoverably screw with SegWit transactions, but maybe he found some bug somewhere."

But really he's completely full of shit; the vast majority of claims he makes are complete lies from front to back. (And often just a tiny bit of research will make this obvious.)

It's hard to have "digital cash" without fungibility.
