+1 (this merit thing is starting to get annoying for WO leechers)

When’s the next sMerit air drop for normal posters, not Merit Sources?
I like to spread my seed but I’ve been dry for ages.

I doubt that there is going to be any additional membership-wide smerit air drop at any time in the near future. 

Such an airdrop would not make much sense in the scheme of the incentives that are being attempted with the current smerit implementation - because a membership-wide airdrop would likely incentivize the kind of behavior that is attempting to be regulated through the use of smerit sources, and some attempts at a degree of smerit scarcity.

But receive 2 and then you can give one. Gives merit a half life (aside from the sources I suppose)

Maybe let people give what they get and have a more closed pool instead.

In the previous post, I also recommended listening to Rick Wakeman, nothing  , neither a comment, nor an opinion of the disc.

Only PacMan gif matters. 

If you have merits, you give merits, but honestly I am the same person with merits or without merits, but if I want to rise in rank I am obliged to earn merits, are the rules of the forum.

I suppose if you have the rank and you have merits, you see it with a different perspective.

Soon to come in French tobacconists :



Maybe this kind of thing will incite the Gilets Jaunes (and the rest of the country) to have a look at Bitcoin.

I signed up on their site keplerk.com . What I don't like is that they ask for your phone number, a passport photo and a second proof of ID like your driver's licence.
Anyway, this a great thing for adoption. I guess I'll be buying BTC at my local tobacconist everytime I got some spare change. Simple, easy to do.


"On January 8,  2019, the first six tobacco stores in France began selling bitcoin as a result of a deal inked with Keplerk, a French fintech company that intends to expand the sale of bitcoin to 6,500 more stores by February."

Another attack on Electrum

Warning: there is an ongoing phishing attack against Electrum users, where rogue servers ask users to install bitcoin-stealing malware. We released version 3.3.2, which mitigates the attack.

See > https://twitter.com/ElectrumWallet/status/1083334662427164672

How is this not the same attack as before? Is there something I'm missing or is it just that there is a new software mitigating it now.

Electrum twitter with today date.

I can not tell you more, I do not use Electrum.

Maybe they are repeating the same attack.

Damn doom network.  It NEVER fails.

Prediction time?  OK

I posted a bullish chart, so it went bust of course... 

The dip seems to small to be called a real dip. I see more in your scenario if the dip morphs in a (successful) retest of the low $3,xxx zone.

[infofront]

The number of daily bitcoin transactions has reached a 1-year high, recently surpassing 280,000 for the first time since January 2018. https://www.theblockcrypto.com/tiny/number-of-daily-bitcoin-transactions-reaches-1-year-high/ …

Considering how many transactions are now batched, we may be at an ATH in terms of batching-adjusted transaction volume.

Prediction time?  OK - I will have a pop at it:

This dip seems pretty much right on time; mid January.  It's been the lowest price point of the past four years, except for last year, which was coming down from the ATH, just like 2014 was.

Therefore, if history repeats itself the current few days (if not now, then no more than over the next three or four days) will be the lowest Bitcoin price of this year. We are if anything a day or two ahead of schedule.

Some things are indeed quite predictable, it's pretty weird. Like on schedule.
I even saw the Jan 8 high almost a month ago:

Just for fun, I'd like to make an additional prediction: Jan 8 for the date of the highest price.
