Hey Washington State! I hear alevlaslo has a good investment for you to get your money back!

[LUCKMCFLY]

Good information.

I present:

• The identity of the miner of the block that just moved
• The identities of other early miners (excluding Satoshi)

Bitcoin transfers are instant.

If you are speaking of BTC, that ceased being true upon the activation of RBF.

Humble plane ticket salesmen disagree. Other than that, you are not worth the trouble.

It has already been pointed out that humble plane ticket salesman has until the time you actually board the plane to nullify your unsettled purchase. Why you persist in publicly humiliating delusion is a mystery.

This is incorrect. There are multiple reasons why a running node would restart extraNonce or increment it, and a number of other details that Sergio got wrong. It's really important not to aggrandize Sergio's work, Jimmy, not the least of which is respect for Satoshi's choices.

What’s the relevance? Seems all Greg is saying is “Don’t look over there”.

Ok... your little puzzle hooked me, jbreher.

Who is Greg?

Hmm. I _thought_ it was a 'wink-wink, nudge-nudge, knowwhatimean' open secret that Midnight Magic was the alt Maxwell first uses when seeking plausible deniability.
I could be wrong. I have no proof thereof.

Regardless, what 'midmagic' is spouting has absolutely no relevance upon the veracity of Jimmy's analysis. Whatsoever. It's an irrelevant sideswipe meant merely to confuse and deflect.

But I don’t want to have a pizza delivered tomorrow. Corona-Chan is keeping me off prepared foods.

Another puzzle?  "Corona-Chan"  What is that?  You are trying to be funny about the chinese origin of our lil ongoing situation?  Seems to me that other places, besides China, have put their own lil signature on making a possibly bad situation worse... but hey.. difficult to call anything exactly while in the midst of it,  amirite bout dat?

BTW, why, exactly btc declined so abruptly? Bizarro.
I know the story...maybe satoshi...blah...blah...maybe someone else..blah blah, whatever, it just shows that many all those longs don't really trust the asset.

I would hardly characterize this whole situation as an abrupt decline.

We had a virus induced bottoming out on March 12 at $3,850, and then a halvening run to $10k without much correction... and in recent times we have been having corrections down into the $8ks - perhaps could go into the upper $7ks without much of a breakage of the short-term up, with a bit of a reliever from not quite being ready or able to break above $10k.

Sure, you are suggesting that there could be something wrong since BTC has not quite broken above $10k, and that might be true that she is getting close to accomplishing such breakage..... or maybe there could be a need to carry out a few more tests of support, and to see if any more weak hands could be shaken.. especially the halvening hype hands, which might be fun to shake some of those get rich quick folks, no? 

Lots of people do seem to be hoping for a soon and quick UP.. but also I am still not sure about how much froth might be necessary of shaking in the shitcoin space because those coins do still seem to be quite responsively hanging on to almost any bitcoin UP move, and not sure if they are worthy enough to deserve coming along with king daddy on its next ride UPpity...

To me, a week to a month bouncing between $7,800 and $10,200 seems more like a flat than it does like down or an abrupt decline, and sure if we get a few months in this area, there might develop additional anxiousness about a move one way or another.. in the meantime, tentatively, I consider our current location as a kind of flat..

wake me up when (no, I am not going to say "if") we break outside of $7,800 - $10,200.

O.k.  Thanks for the explanation that still seems a bit of a puzzle to me because I doubt that Greg would be purposefully providing convoluted or misleading information in regards to bitcoin technical analysis.  He might do so in regards to BIG blocker battles, but whatever, I don't know.

Otherwise, you are tentatively thinking that Jimmy Song's analysis adds some value in proclaiming that the coins are NOT likely to be satoshi's.

I do find some interest in some of these early blocks, and likely a lot of them are not going to be moving, yet it would seem that it could be good, even for Hal Finney's family to move some of their coins to maybe provide better security, but I am not really sure how Hal would have passed his coins down to his family, either... and maybe they feel comfortable in NOT moving those earlier coins to the extent that they have access to them?

But I don’t want to have a pizza delivered tomorrow. Corona-Chan is keeping me off prepared foods.

You are on a puzzle roll.  Answer one puzzle with another puzzle, and I wonder how helpful that is...  Are we getting anywhere?  fast?

I did look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morris_Day.... but don't know how much homework I feel like doing in order to attempt to resolve your seeming puzzle proliferations.  Maybe one puzzle just keeps leading to another puzzle and we no don't get anywhere.

Otherwise, you are tentatively thinking that Jimmy Song's analysis adds some value in proclaiming that the coins are NOT likely to be satoshi's.

Well, what Jimmy is saying is that these coins are from a block that do not come from the so-called 'patoshi sequence' (when was this term coined? We've known about this for years, but the 'patoshi' name is new to me). As such, they are not strongly suspected to be satoshi's. Though they could be - satoshi _could_ have also been mining on a machine that was uncorrelated with his main miners. Seems unlikely tho.

What midmagic is saying really has no bearing whatsoever upon the question of whether or not these are satoshi's.  Complete non sequitur.

But I don’t want to have a pizza delivered tomorrow. Corona-Chan is keeping me off prepared foods.
