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

I'm having a hard time watching this only because I broke my glasses.  Does anyone know the best way to measure pupillary distance?  It's not on my prescription!

Better to use two people for this, but you can put on a pair of glasses, and then use a marker to mark exactly where the pupils are then  measure how far apart the marks are.

You can also do it in a mirror but a bit easier (and more accurate) to have a second person line them up.  Of course, Pupilary distance is referred to in millemeters.. so 64 millimeters is common... also more accurate to measure each one separately if your eyes are really screwed up then better to have a professional fit your glasses so that everything is in the right spot and more comfort on your eyes.  Measuring separately would be from the center of the nose bridge to each of the pupils, so in my above example they would be 32  each if you happen to be exactly symmetrical, which frequently there is a bit of a difference between each side... possibly not enough to matter.

Bitcoin drops and is still above 10K

[_javier_]

Point of maximum pain on Bitcoin Ticker mobile app

Highest  13857.3, lowest 10378.5...  a 3480 usd drop per BTC in 24hrs.  Almost -25% in 1 day

Multiply that for your current stack, and lets cry together..

Today I had a class (I teach electronics as a side activity to my main job). We were talking about digital stuff, gates, etc. One thing led to another and we ended up talking about Bitcoin. I felt like Andreas Antonopoulos on stage...

Some statistics:

-- Most students hadn't even heard about Bitcoin, and those few who had were all males, no females knew anything about it. However, the females were very interested, especially when they realised it can be very profitable.

Everyone and their mother's mother heard about bitcoin by now, so this is curious.
"heard about" or "know about"?
Given that it was electronics class, I suppose these guys were not Amish?  
How old were they anyway, and where did you find them?

You are likely WRONG about your speculation that everyone knows about bitcoin.

If everyone knows about bitcoin we would have more than1% world-wide adoption.

Furthermore there is a lot of misinformation out there which would explain why most people, even those who heard the word bitcoin, have almost no clue about what bitcoin is.. even people who invest in bitcoin.  By the way, people who invest in bitcoin would have a higher chance to know what bitcoin is because they are at least attempting to actively engage with the topic, so gives them additional motivation to learn more about what the fuck bitcoin might be.

In their twenties. Can't reveal more info about them. They are not Amish (LOL). Also, they are not learning about electronics by choice, but they are obligated to do it. Many of them don't really want to learn or care about electronics. They are not geeks.

-- Most students hadn't even heard about Bitcoin

How many? Your estimate if you can recall?

About 25 (out of 30) students either hadn't heard about it at all, or had heard about the name "Bitcoin" only, but no clue about what it really is.

-- The few students that knew about it were mostly misinformed about what it is and how it works.

-- The entire class (about 30 students) was ecstatic. They really wanted to know and understand it. We skipped all breaks, they wanted to stay in the classroom and learn about it.

-- Many of them wanted to buy. Many downloaded wallets on their phones. Some purchased online versions of Andreas Antonopoulos' book.

So you explained to them how bitcoin is not a scam or a pyramid scheme, but can be profitable? What did you tell them then?  
Which part did they like so much that they decided to buy a book about it?

Yes, that's what I did. Basically I told them more or less what's in this talk by Antonopoulos:

https://youtu.be/l1si5ZWLgy0

They were excited about the concept of being able to send cash anonymously and over long distances without having a middleman to allow or forbid the transaction. Another thing they liked is the fact that Bitcoin has no physical form, and hence it can be transferred over the Internet and stored on a piece of paper, TREZOR, etc. They particularly liked (and understood) the comparison of the Bitcoin protocol to TCP/IP and the Internet of the 80s/90s, and what was said about it at that time. Also, they were excited about its profitability (which was expected!).

Even if only 2 or 3 of them take it seriously, it's still a good thing.

In WO there are 2 groups:

WO stronghats and weakhands.

Where do you think to put me?

Gonna put you in the corner with Mayor.

O.k... this might work to get mayor to come out.

This is how to do it:  Both of you count to 100 before you come out, and come out together.

Two errors in one statement.   Most people in the world haven't heard on Enron, in fact a great deal many people were born after that.   No one now owns Enron stock, it no longer exists at least in the public markets. Enron sold all of its assets before coming out of bankruptcy.

Strikingly similar to Bitcoin and it wasn't a bubble..
