Which coins/denominations do I have from each BTC I have as it relates to forks?

I know for sure I have 1 BCH, and maybe 1 BSV for each BTC I own, but is there anything else of value I should be looking at in case I'm thinking of doing anything in the next few months?

Thanks in advance!

I would have gone in for a free burger which rules out Krishna as well but nobody would ever accuse me of being hairless... I do play a mean tambourine.

Nope. No burgers in Krishnaland. They do give out weird vegan crap though.

Back in the early 1970s I answered an ad in the Bargain Hunter Press (later called Buy and Sell) for a P.A. amp at an incredible price. It was only a little over a block from our house on Gerrard near Jarvis but I didn't realize until I got there that it was the Krishna "Temple".

I double checked the ad to make sure the address was right and knocked on the door. The air was filled with incense, chants and the jingling of little bells. Some dude in saffron robes invited me in and immediately started to try to indoctrinate me.

I explained I was there for the P.A. amp they'd advertised. I realized some poor sucker had relinquished his worldly goods to the "church", including a Bogen 100W PA amplifier. Saffron Robe Dude was now worked up to a fever pitch trying to get my cash and sign me up. Maybe he thought he could get me to relinquish it after I'd paid for it. Get twice the mileage out of the classified ad and maybe sell it to someone else.

I asked for a receipt and when he came back with a receipt book he was also carrying some kind of weird seed-cake wafers which he offered to me as "food". I tasted it to be polite, thanked him, grabbed the P.A. and got the fuck out of there. The P.A. worked great until it was stolen from a bar we played in.

Ain't religion grand?

I think something important is happening. From my list of 42 european countries for which there is enough data to estimate a reproduction number R of Covid 19, Austria has the lowest (=best) value at 0.81 (going down 2 to 3pp per day)

Yesterday Kurz announced that on April 14th, small shops will reopen,
then 1 May, all other shops
and school mid-may.

Is 1 May the bottom day?

The lockdown has not stopped the spread of the virus, just slowed it down. It has given us time to learn how it works and treat it, but the same number of people will get infected. Maybe less people will die as a result.

Sending kids back this soon is insanity. They are the primary infection vector. What we should be doing is sending workers back to work, so we can actually afford to treat patients and develop some way to defend against it. Let kids stay at home where it's safe. Literally think of the children. They are dirty and germy and smelly.

Hey jbreher:

I have been pondering this BTC order increments and spread idea for the past couple of days, and I thought that maybe there is a way that I could attempt to further clarify points of my above post,

I don't think I really disagree with anything in your post. I just find it non-optimal for me. Again, I put a high value on being able to enter offsetting trades (i.e. in the wake of a trade execution) without needing to think about it. My twelve second claim may be off a few percent one side or another, but it is pretty close to reality.

So, other than step functions in changing my overall increment when price has done a several X, my increments are uniform, and there is a two increment space between my highest standing buy and my lowest standing sell. It just simplifies the thinking. Or actually eliminates the thinking, and simplifies the rote execution.

As for magnitude of increment, yes there is a balance between total profit, profit margin, and effort required. Your profit margin on a smaller increment is smaller than on a larger increment, but seeing as small movements in price happen more often than large movements in price (indeed, it is a power law distribution), overall profit is larger with a smaller increment. As the increment gets smaller, it is true that you start giving more away in cost of sales (trade fee), which at some point makes you question whether it is worth the effort. This is another reason to minimize the effort on any given trade, as that allows you to cull more total profit without feeling unduly burdened.

At least, it works for me.

Incidentally... 0.5%? Ouch.

I am pretty sure that in recent weeks I had come across a term that describes a kind of poetic justice that occurs when someone becomes a victim of the very thing that s/he has been denying to exist. 

Its called Karma.

 Only if that person were to die though.

Karma is quite an involved, subtle, nuanced even, concept that gets loosely used in Western/modern culture to mean "revenge" or "payback" or something along those lines.

... it's origins in Hinduism have much more to do with the multi-faceted nature of Krishna (Universal/cosmic order aka "god")), fate and actions in your previous life (lives), it stems from the underlying conceptualisation of the spiritual ... see Bhagavad Gita - As It Is

karma (in Hinduism and Buddhism) the sum of a person's actions in this and previous states of existence, viewed as deciding their fate in future existences.

Separately the word JJG maybe searching for is "Schadenfreude", but I'd think that is completely inappropriate given Boris's plight.

Why?

If you sell defective shit and get hurt because of it, its still Karma.

In core meaning Karma means action only, not result.

You thinking something in your mind-Its karma
You are talking- Its karma
Your body is doing something - Its karma

Krishna is Avatar of God (Vishnu) in Hinduism.

The price rebounded very quickly from the small dump from $7,3xx to $70xx. I sense a ‘buy the dip’ mentality growing. The rebound was quick and fearless. This behaviour could reinforce the next few weeks into a genuine blow off top.

TLTooStupid: can’t afford not to be decently invested in BTC now.

I am into the USD/EUR pair again.

I missed trading that one. Stress-free. Making money whichever direction it goes. Making like $1k with every %4 swing and it does it a lot lately.

My favorite billionaire just gave away 28% of his net worth.

Very nice gesture on the part of Jack Dorsey indeed.

I'm not Hindu though.
I'd better be careful, if I keep telling people what I'm not, eventually, I will have blown my opsec.

Let me guess. Jehovah's Witness? Scientologist? Hairless Krishna? Southern Baptist?

 

   JW?  I do get somewhat regular visits from a pair of elderly ladies wanting to teach me the truth. No.
  Scientologist?  I remember being intrigued by their offer of a free personality test when they were at Yonge and College. So, no but I would have gone in for a free burger which rules out Krishna as well but nobody would ever accuse me of being hairless... I do play a mean tambourine.
  S. Baptist?  I can count on one hand the number of times I've been south of the Mason-Dixon line - not that there's anything wrong with that.

 You've got 16 left

You have been giving away a lot recently homer....


Sharing is caring.

This is the problem of many people who simply do not know how to take action.
They are always waiting for the best time to buy Bitcoin, but there is no such best time.

The price of Bitcoin will always be too expensive for those who don't believe in Bitcoin.

I know people who didn't buy Bitcoin in mid-March when the price dropped below $5K saying I'm waiting for it to go down to $2K...

[Last of the V8s]

A suspected Covid-19 male patient is lying in bed in the hospital, wearing an oxygen mask over his mouth and nose. A young student female nurse appears and gives him a partial sponge bath.

"Nurse,"' he mumbles from behind the mask, "are my testicles black?"

Embarrassed, the young nurse replies, "I don't know, Sir. I'm only here to wash your upper body and feet."

He struggles to ask again, "Nurse, please check for me. Are my testicles black?"

Concerned that he might elevate his blood pressure and heart rate from worrying about his testicles, she overcomes her embarrassment and
pulls back the covers.

She raises his gown, holds his manhood in one hand and his testicles gently in the other.

She looks very closely and says, "There's nothing wrong with them, Sir. They look fine."

The man slowly pulls off his oxygen mask, smiles at her, and says very slowly,

"Thank you very much. That was wonderful. Now listen very, very, closely:

"Are - my - test - results - back?"

They are also cute, full of energy and most of the time lacking in jadedness... contrasting with some foks.
