Sad to see another legendary account sold/stolen and turned into a shitcoin shill. Nope. I ignored him years and years and years ago for the exact same reason many are in the mood to do so now. Don't worry too much about it uncle D, serveria.com enjoys jumping into hasty conclusions. Hasty or not but I can smell beartrolls from miles away. Really? I have an acute sense of smell too, for pussy & for liars.

I love unsustainable pumps. Make $ on the way up, corn on the way down. Yummy. nobody can do it on sustainable basis as it does not tell you where it will go. sooner or later, you would lose.

However, that pile of stinky fiat is rather stratospheric, given the ratios of play_money:stake I am laddering. And every up/down gives me a more corn (if I don't take the profit in USD). Accordingly, depending upon the amount of volatility in relation to upward trend, I may never run out on the high side. Losing? Hardly. So in reality, I was merely trying to soften a retort of 'bullshit' to biodom's blanket 'lose' statement.

Bitcoin is unrivaled: Security, Liquidity, SoV. If you just tune it to make it coffee-ready, the system collapses.
Speculation based upon facts not entered into evidence. I don't see anything wrong with that because there isn't a known safe solution, if there was one, BTC devs would have implemented it already.

Godbye 4digits Frankly, I feel sorry to all this guys waiting for sub 9K. Last seconds to join the train. JSRAW? Can you confirm this assertion? If JSRAW does not confirm, I cannot put much higher odds than 50% that we will never see 4 digits again. Of course, the lower you go, the less probable... So yeah there have been quite a few people looking for below $9k, and jesus, we were already at $9,049 which would have been about a 35% correction from our $13,880 local top. Why the fuck expect more than that? Hi JJG, as far I remember you were always about 50% odds. Difficult to get me to come off of 50/50 very often.. More than that? No, you know answer to this question - greed and/or fear. This two factors are evident for any professional trader I assume you are. The Point is to find ...ZEN - internal Zen, and play around it.
No way would I characterize myself as a professional [edit: whoops] traitor trader, but I think that i have worked out some pretty decent laddering techniques for myself in the last few years that were kind of a follower to my earlier dollar cost averaging accumulation phase. When we had gotten stuck in the $250-ish bottom for so long in 2015, I had supplemented my technique into adding a selling component... Before mid-2015, my technique largely only involved buying and if I ever sold anything, I would replace within 24 hours or so. I am still a little that way in terms of trying to engage in a kind of allocated amount, but my system does have a built in allowance currently for selling that did not really exist for nearly the first two years that I was getting into BTC starting from late 2013. Anyhow the laddering technique seems to largely cause me to NOT get too emotional about BTC short term price directions, but like anyone who is holding some corn or at one time had held some corn (maybe having had recently sold), I get nervous when the price gets on an overshooting rampage that goes quite beyond expectations - sometimes 2x (as in the final push below $6k in December 2018 or even how quickly she moved above $10k this time around into the $13,880 territory) or 3-5x (as in the December 2017 push up to $19,666). For me, there tends to be a bit more nervousness on the way down rather than the way up, but mostly my nervousness won't really start to kick in on the way down as often as it used to do, but even these days it can start to kick in around 30% or so but sometimes even a 30% correction can be part of the expectation so I might not get nervous until it goes to 50% down or if it just keeps on lingering in the lower part of the down, which causes me to fear that it may be going to down more.. but my system does not allow me to sell, it just causes me to buy more as it goes down, rather than trying to bet on the price going down more But even on the way up, when it is going UP so much, I will frequently question whether I need to alter my selling plan (and perhaps sell a bit more corn) because of the severity in which the price is rising. Even though I have those kinds of fearful thoughts, I feel that I kind of learned my lesson on that, already in late 2015, when I tried to second guess matters, and I just ended up kind of screwing up... So in essence, I have learned that it is usually just better to stick to my plan course, and of course these days when I am playing with a decent amount of equity, I can act with even less feelings about even the BIGGER of price movements. I understand that it could make a difference if I happen to be 4x in BTC profits or 20x in BTC profits, but when the floor of the BTC price movement starts to seem that it is becoming quite solidly grounded in the neighborhood of 10x in profits, then it becomes way more easy to rest assured... and just attempt to stick with 50/50 thinking... even if I remain curious about what is happening with BTC price movements... I am surely not going to deny that. You know when we got the nearly 3.5x price appreciation in less than 3 months from $4,200 to $13,880, there is both a kind of rest assurance that the cushion from the $3,122 bottom is way more secured (and harder to reach), but there is also some anxiety regarding how far the inevitable BTC price fall from the exuberant period of the $13,880 top is going to be based on how well buying support has been able to keep up, especially in the last few weeks, the price rise was getting really outrageously unstable in the upwards direction. Those FOMO fool buying fucks. But if $9,049 ends up being the bottom for this particular BTC price correction, then that should also be a decently bullish feeling, even if we still cannot know for sure whether 4 digits are going to again be revisited in the kind of attention-whore volatility drama way that baby BTC happens to be known. i know, I know, I know.. she cannot really help herselfie because it is just peeps pushing her price movement as much, as far and as long as they can get away with it. And a bit of Voodoo - I predicted this 3 times within last 30 days - doesn't mean it won't go under 10K within next few weeks for some while. But trend is fucking obvious. And we survive holiday season Sounds like we are probably on a similar kind of page in terms of detecting what seems to be a decent amount of trend that is going to be difficult to undermine, even if a lot of cash is thrown at attempting to crash the baby BTC. If she don't wanna crash, she don't wanna crash. I think that there is generally a lot of ongoing good news out there that is just fucking the hell out of the effectiveness of any FUDding attempts and like you seem to be suggesting, the trend is your friend... so those of us who go with it, rather than fighting it will likely be better off. hahahahahahaha or get reckt, if you happen to want to buck the trend and think that you are smarter than the market.

same mistake as Monero.
Wrong a tiny tail emission that supports mining is not infinite coins. Tail emission forever *is* infinite coins. Monero’s tail emission rate is 3.6%. Bitcoin’s current inflation rate is 3.87%. In May 2020 Bitcoin’s inflation rate will be less than Monero’s tail emission rate and will keep falling. Monero will never match Bitcoin as a store of value. The transaction fees on Monero are sufficiently horrifying that there is plenty there to support mining. Tail emission is a fatal flaw. Monero have perfect emission. Current Monero emission inflation rate is 3.84% You can daily check it here: https://moneroinfo.herokuapp.com/Bitcoins current inflation rate is 3.68% and Golds 1.7% Monero tail emission will be 0.8% so more then half less then Golds and more then 4 times less then Bitcoins at this moment. If you think that i s a lot, then you really dislike Bitcoins. Overall in next 20 years Monero, Bitcoin and Gold mining emissions will be quite close together. No huge differences. All will be scarce and none will have problems with to low emission.

Yeah, I much prefer incremental steps. I’m not in the mood for unsustainable pumps because we all know what happens after them.
I love unsustainable pumps. Make $ on the way up, corn on the way down. Yummy. nobody can do it on sustainable basis as it does not tell you where it will go. sooner or later, you would lose. For some value of 'lose' that has nothing to do with my personal situation. Can you elaborate, jbreher? Yeah. My elaboration is I don't believe that there is any way in which this strategy would cause me to "lose" - counter to biodom's claim. Every up/down, I make a profit. I can choose whether to take that profit in USD or BTC. Sometimes I flip from one to the other, depending upon cash flow needs. It is true that this causes me to sell at a price that I expect to be (wildly) exceeded in the future. Accordingly, if corn price goes up monotonically, I will eventually have no corn, and nothing but a gigantic pile o' stinky fiat. Is that 'losing'? Not exactly. Kinda. However, that pile of stinky fiat is rather stratospheric, given the ratios of play_money:stake I am laddering. And every up/down gives me a more corn (if I don't take the profit in USD). Accordingly, depending upon the amount of volatility in relation to upward trend, I may never run out on the high side. Losing? Hardly. So in reality, I was merely trying to soften a retort of 'bullshit' to biodom's blanket 'lose' statement. Well, I agree that you have a lot of discretion in the way that you take profits, and there can be some ways that you could also likely engage in accounting, just as I could in such a way that in reality you are really only playing with house money, so the win is already in and the system works for nearly any price scenario, except maybe if BTC went to zero and then you were putting in fortunes all the way down, or some outlandish scenario like that in which you did not know that it was actually going to go to zero.. but even then, you might have a limit regarding how much that you are wiling to invest on the way down or even how far down you would keep buying. Regarding running out on the way up, my system is no where near having that kind of potential of a problem, and yeah I know that there remains a decent amount of discretion here regarding how BIG of a portfolio you have and also how much you are selling on the way up. I just feel that I have so much goddamed fiat, even with modest selling that I don't even have much if any motive to sell more fiat than my modest selling all the way up causes me to do... so whether BTC goes to $100k or $1million or $10million or whatever, I still would have decent proportions in BTC. I would concede that there might be a certain point that I would just liquidate a decent-sized amount of BTC, just for shits and giggles and to buy something outrageous. Even if BTC goes above $100k, and I going to have to engage in some additional learning about acting or being a kind of rich that had been above my expectations. So, even though I reluctantly don't want to hire too many consultants, sometimes they are going to be needed for certain kinds of BIG ASS purchases and even maintaining and managing those kinds of assets.

My elaboration is I don't believe that there is any way in which this strategy would cause me to "lose" - counter to biodom's claim. Every up/down, I make a profit. I can choose whether to take that profit in USD or BTC. Sometimes I flip from one to the other, depending upon cash flow needs. It is true that this causes me to sell at a price that I expect to be (wildly) exceeded in the future. Accordingly, if corn price goes up monotonically, I will eventually have no corn, and nothing but a gigantic pile o' stinky fiat. Is that 'losing'? Not exactly. Kinda. However, that pile of stinky fiat is rather stratospheric, given the ratios of play_money:stake I am laddering. And every up/down gives me a more corn (if I don't take the profit in USD). Accordingly, depending upon the amount of volatility in relation to upward trend, I may never run out on the high side. Losing? Hardly. So in reality, I was merely trying to soften a retort of 'bullshit' to biodom's blanket 'lose' statement. The only point i was making is that selling, then re-buying, then selling again and re-buying sequences would most likely (in my opinion) result in a lower number of bitcoins than you start with. I have absolutely no problem with selling bitcoin (or $$ for btc) in bits and pieces on the way up (or down, depending on your strategy). It' the trading back and forth that I posit to be an unrealistic tool (when taken alone) to increase the number of btc that someone have. I realize that you might be playing with small %%, still, i do not wish other people trading away their future wealth by trying to gain a bit of a leverage, hence my post.

Godbye 4digits Frankly, I feel sorry to all this guys waiting for sub 9K. Last seconds to join the train. JSRAW? Can you confirm this assertion? If JSRAW does not confirm, I cannot put much higher odds than 50% that we will never see 4 digits again. Of course, the lower you go, the less probable... So yeah there have been quite a few people looking for below $9k, and jesus, we were already at $9,049 which would have been about a 35% correction from our $13,880 local top. Why the fuck expect more than that? Hi JJG, as far I remember you were always about 50% odds. Difficult to get me to come off of 50/50 very often.. More than that? No, you know answer to this question - greed and/or fear. This two factors are evident for any professional trader I assume you are. The Point is to find ...ZEN - internal Zen, and play around it.
No way would I characterize myself as a professional traitor, but I think that i have worked out some pretty decent laddering techniques for myself in the last few years that were kind of a follower to my earlier dollar cost averaging accumulation phase. When we had gotten stuck in the $250-ish bottom for so long in 2015, I had supplemented my technique into adding a selling component... Before mid-2015, my technique largely only involved buying and if I ever sold anything, I would replace within 24 hours or so. I am still a little that way in terms of trying to engage in a kind of allocated amount, but my system does have a built in allowance currently for selling that did not really exist for nearly the first two years that I was getting into BTC starting from late 2013. Anyhow the laddering technique seems to largely cause me to NOT get too emotional about BTC short term price directions, but like anyone who is holding some corn or at one time had held some corn (maybe having had recently sold), I get nervous when the price gets on an overshooting rampage that goes quite beyond expectations - sometimes 2x (as in the final push below $6k in December 2018 or even how quickly she moved above $10k this time around into the $13,880 territory) or 3-5x (as in the December 2017 push up to $19,666). For me, there tends to be a bit more nervousness on the way down rather than the way up, but mostly my nervousness won't really start to kick in on the way down as often as it used to do, but even these days it can start to kick in around 30% or so but sometimes even a 30% correction can be part of the expectation so I might not get nervous until it goes to 50% down or if it just keeps on lingering in the lower part of the down, which causes me to fear that it may be going to down more.. but my system does not allow me to sell, it just causes me to buy more as it goes down, rather than trying to bet on the price going down more But even on the way up, when it is going UP so much, I will frequently question whether I need to alter my selling plan (and perhaps sell a bit more corn) because of the severity in which the price is rising. Even though I have those kinds of fearful thoughts, I feel that I kind of learned my lesson on that, already in late 2015, when I tried to second guess matters, and I just ended up kind of screwing up... So in essence, I have learned that it is usually just better to stick to my plan course, and of course these days when I am playing with a decent amount of equity, I can act with even less feelings about even the BIGGER of price movements. I understand that it could make a difference if I happen to be 4x in BTC profits or 20x in BTC profits, but when the floor of the BTC price movement starts to seem that it is becoming quite solidly grounded in the neighborhood of 10x in profits, then it becomes way more easy to rest assured... and just attempt to stick with 50/50 thinking... even if I remain curious about what is happening with BTC price movements... I am surely not going to deny that. You know when we got the nearly 3.5x price appreciation in less than 3 months from $4,200 to $13,880, there is both a kind of rest assurance that the cushion from the $3,122 bottom is way more secured (and harder to reach), but there is also some anxiety regarding how far the inevitable BTC price fall from the exuberant period of the $13,880 top is going to be based on how well buying support has been able to keep up, especially in the last few weeks, the price rise was getting really outrageously unstable in the upwards direction. Those FOMO fool buying fucks. But if $9,049 ends up being the bottom for this particular BTC price correction, then that should also be a decently bullish feeling, even if we still cannot know for sure whether 4 digits are going to again be revisited in the kind of attention-whore volatility drama way that baby BTC happens to be known. i know, I know, I know.. she cannot really help herselfie because it is just peeps pushing her price movement as much, as far and as long as they can get away with it. And a bit of Voodoo - I predicted this 3 times within last 30 days - doesn't mean it won't go under 10K within next few weeks for some while. But trend is fucking obvious. And we survive holiday season Sounds like we are probably on a similar kind of page in terms of detecting what seems to be a decent amount of trend that is going to be difficult to undermine, even if a lot of cash is thrown at attempting to crash the baby BTC. If she don't wanna crash, she don't wanna crash. I think that there is generally a lot of ongoing good news out there that is just fucking the hell out of the effectiveness of any FUDding attempts and like you seem to be suggesting, the trend is your friend... so those of us who go with it, rather than fighting it will likely be better off. hahahahahahaha or get reckt, if you happen to want to buck the trend and think that you are smarter than the market. JJg you never become to be dissapointed

Trains merited. I am happy.
Does Smerit ever refill itself?
So far there has only been one smerit drop from theymos on January 24, 2018 that went across the board to everyone based on their rank and their activity level in the previous year, and I really doubt that he is going to airdrop anymore smerits. These days the only way that you can get smerits is to receive them from other members who appreciate your content for whatever reason, and if you get designated as a merit source, and so far theymos has only designated 131 members as merit sources.Trains merited. I am happy.
Does Smerit ever refill itself?
Thanks bro Why I can't simply buy this merits? It's against the rules for merit sources to trade their smerits for anything of value, and likely if anyone found out that you were a regular member buying smerits, then your account would probably get red tagged... any member can give red tags, and of course the higher that you are on the trust level the more weight your red tags have, and probably the more that you participate in the red tag system the more trust you can gain, as long as you do not cause the opposite reaction from other members by red-tagging stupid shit or not sufficiently justifying your red tag... hahahahaha
