Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[xhomerx10]

I came here for the Bitcoins, but stayed for the barrel plugs. This thread is hilarious, I love it

I would ask for instructions to build a homemade pipe bender.... but you guys wouldn't get the joke lol

Talking about that... where is Rosecactus? I am starting to be worried.

 Hey!  I'm trying to replace the lost Bitcoin hashing power so we have walls to Observe

I am not quite sure what you need. If you have not already solved it, a picture would be worth a thousand words

 Thanks for the tip.   My PSU was Flypower PS60IBCAY5000S and searching for that game me so many shitty links to "replacement" parts that were not even close in power output that I gave up trying to find the specs.  It came with an AItech USB hub which I think is either out of business or had to change it's name for legal reasons... at any rate, I can't find them either.

 There is nothing like Florida oranges and grapefruit (especially the ruby reds).  Once a year I order a box around Christmas and I'll probably end up using my credit card but it would be nice to be able to use Bitcoin

You need to goto The Dominican Republic and eat the fruit off the trees there if you think florida's fruit is good.

....So, during the bear market, employ your time opening accounts in as many exchanges as you can, verify as needed, learn their UI, etc... During a bull market things happen very fast, and chances are that you won't be able to use that exchange you need to trade some fork/altcoin or use for fiat withdrawal if you have not done your homework well in advance.....

This is great advice.

The bear market will be long and tough to endure, and this is just the sort of work that will be making progress, instead of anxiously watching falling or stagnant prices.

Verification can often be a long process. It is also useful to be familiar with the rules of the exchanges and businesses you deal with.

Yup, and during a bull run is way longer if they are not simply collapsed. Also, for withdrawals, it is also useful THEY know you. And the best for that is having made some deposit to them in the past (and what better moment to do that than in a bear market?).

Exchanges do not like people coming out of nowhere and pretending to withdraw huge amounts of money.

Yea, that is good advice for someone starting out. Bear markets are good for getting your infrastructure set up with exchanges etc. I sold some btc back in the first quarter and I had to go through a whole process explaining where it came from. Everything worked out fine , but definitely take advantage of this time to get set up.

@xhomer is this what you need? https://www.ebay.es/i/252540971848?chn=ps

Or just the plug/connector?

I would appreciate advice on what sort of proofs/documents did they request you to "explain where it came from". It might get handy to get them all ready in advance.

An explanation of how the Bitcoin Core repository is maintained.  It’s a good read:

 We could to be just about close to bottom.






1- The 50 Moving Average on the monthly chart has only been tested twice and price never closed under it.
2-The last bear market of 2014-2015 we had almost exactly 85% drop from ATH which meets the target of the current value of the 50MA

 Well I burned out my power supply which was ~60 Watts output (@12V) and the plug is 5.5mm OD for sure but I was having trouble figuring the ID and there were two possibilities - 2.1mm and 2.5mm.  That plug specification was impossible to find.  Thanks for the help!  

 

I am not quite sure what you need. If you have not already solved it, a picture would be worth a thousand words

 I have solved it   Pictures anyway!
The plug I needed is circled in green and on the right I have restored all¹ of the recently lost Bitcoin hashing power to the network.



¹ All of the Bitcoin hashing power lost when my PSU burned up.

Great! Nice little mining setup you have there

Wait! Solo mining? Is that like buying lotto tickets what you are doing there?

I see Micgoossens is in here giving blowjobs for shitcoins instead of expelling the Jews at the Belgium protest after they attempted to destroy the country with the UN migration act.  I have created a sign for you so that you may now leave the house and go protest:

 Next Bitcoin moon cycle, I will cash out enough to go to the Dominican Republic then.  I prefer vine-ripened tomatoes so I can only imagine tree-ripened fruit.  The peaches I can buy here are usually as hard as stone when available and the kiwis from Italy are like wood and sour most of the time although I was able to buy some golden variety recently that are pretty darn juicy.

From my experience it was just screenshots of my exchange accounts. It may be different for each person though.

For me..... i wouldn’t mind this scenario@ all

that is some serious D you got there homer

I might have to fire the BFL single back up and give you a run

LoL and thx for doing that

 Thanks!  I am solo mining but it's more like heating my computer room than buying lotto tickets - my best ever share was 3.11G when the difficulty was over 7.5T which is still a long way off.  I just like the pretty flashing lights really.  
 I also have a decent computer beside those miners creating Bitcoin vanity addresses and occasionally looking for Bitcoin address pairings (partial collisions) so it gets pretty warm in here.

Everything worked out fine , but definitely take advantage of this time to get set up.

In my case I sold some crypto to Gold Money to get USD. When I did , they asked for proof where I acquired the BTC. In my case it was ok to show proof of mining. I had old KNC and Bitmain receipts. Which they accepted. I also showed proof that I had a Bitstamp account going back to 2013. This was sufficient, although I could have shown more. They were then satisfied.
