US SEC Takes Another Look at Rejected Bitwise Bitcoin ETF Proposal

Not that BTC needs any reason to dip but this is as good as any.

Mimblewimble’s privacy is fundamentally flawed. Using only $60/week of AWS spend, I was able to uncover the exact addresses of senders and recipients for 96% Grin transactions in real time.
The problem is inherent to Mimblewimble, and I don’t believe there’s a way to fix it. This means Mimblewimble should no longer be considered a viable alternative to Zcash or Monero when it comes to privacy.

TL no link clicky, Mimblewimble is supposedly dead  

Good thing that Mimblewimble and BTC are not the same thing.  In other words, fuck that shit coin.  

Mimblewimble is a protocol it could have been used to create private sidechains.

Fair enough, and it would be good to get as many of the bugs out of it as possible during the early days, and if it has some irreconcilable technical issues, then maybe its obituary can be written to be able to move on, if there is nothing salvageable, perhaps?

I started to report the posts of THX1138 - since there seems to be a pattern of a ban evasion going on here. Banned members should not be able to go through other members to post responses here, which would cause THX1138 and anyone else who engages in such conduct to be attempting to evade a ban.

It's not that important (I don't care if thats how he wants it to be[he could easily get back by following the simple ass rules]), I just don't want to hear it so the ignore works for me but then when i get attributed his words in a fucked up quote I want that shit fixed.

Of course, anyone can choose or not to report any post, and I was more than willing to bear the inconvenience of many of the posts; however, here we have a situation that seems reportable, and such posts should be removed - banned members should NOT be able to post here.  Otherwise I agree with you that compliance with forum rules is not very onerous for quasi-normal peeps.

The resizing did the trick.

ok.  Great.

Now back to trying to find out where the hell i was in this thread!

Whenever you are  not really sure about something, the most logical place to start would be the beginning.



Alternatively, you can just attempt to remember where you last saw your keys, and go there.

Thanks akhjob!!!

The above-linked response seems to have largely addressed the earlier criticisms as hyperbolic exaggerations, so in that regard, grin/mimblewimble is far from dead, yet.

^ You are welcome 
I read about it earlier today, since Bitcointalk accepts Grin payments and when I saw that some of you are arguing about it, I thought of sharing it here

US SEC Takes Another Look at Rejected Bitwise Bitcoin ETF Proposal

https://cointelegraph.com/news/us-sec-takes-another-look-at-rejected-bitwise-bitcoin-etf-proposal

Seems like some of these ETF applications never die, and in this regard the SEC seems to be reviewing (and accepting comments until December 18, 2019) regarding the Bitwise / Arca ETF filing that had been rejected on October 9, 2019.

Here's the actual SEC announcement of the review - that is linked in the article that you had provided, Bitcoinaire:
https://www.federalregister.gov/document...iew-for-an

Like you mentioned, Bitcoinaire, I am thinking that the SEC will likely reject the ETF again, and I would imagine that any actual further decision will extend well into early 2020, and who knows if this kind of review triggers further time extensions or consideration of further evidence and/or arguments that might end up being raised through this particular 30-day commentary period?

Can’t disagree with this witty tweet:

If you think the Bitcoin halving is priced in, think about this:

Every year, without fail, people in their 50’s are surprised by how early it gets dark in Nov.

“OMG, can you believe it’s dark out already?!?”

“Yes Karen, I can. It’s Nov. 18. It’s been happening my entire life.”

Also i agree that dark day November i think means "Black Friday"   this day huge movement every places we go back Nov. 18 that day, we will realize that there was an earthquake in the crypto market.

@HairyMaclairy brothers are you confused price drop? we are ready to up  movement does not matter.

1BTC=1BTC

With a rebel yell, she cried more

[HairyMaclairy]

I’m skeptical of that because you only have one touch on your long-term support for the two years prior to 2019. Thus until the bottom formed in late 2018, there was no support line. I had also considered that along with @masterluc’s longstanding expectation for $6.?k by early December 2019.

Support lines drift over time from their original anchor points.   Its like the tides man.  Tides go in, tides go out.  You can't explain that.

What the fuck’s going on?
Obviously I’m buying every week still but I’d rather be at a stage where I deem it to expensive to buy & my HODL stash is a true monstrosity in dollar terms.

Why are we going down now? The halving is only 6 months away.

I meant the size of the hopium triangle

Just giving no-coiners and hoarders a chance to grab some. If they care to pick some they'll be happy, else will be crying in future.
