By the way... I think Greg Maxwell did a better job summing up my feelings on the whole "maximallists" shilling INX thing here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5271424.msg55090841#msg55090841Such a good job I did a giant merit blast at him. I find it one of the most depressing things in the bitcoin world all year. Perhaps I put more trust in the "thought leaders" and personalities than I knew. In my opinion Blockstream has taken a good size dent from this whole thing with the positions that it's leaders have taken. I cannot help but wonder if Pieter Wuille leaving for Chaincode Labs had any basis in this sort of crap. And I am not even a maximallist. I am just anti shenanigans. And that's what this garbage is in my humble opinion. The question is, why aren't you though? "Bitcoin maximalism" isn't just about those who have a stake in Bitcoin TM believe everything else is a scam; it's about the belief that Bitcoin is so complete in the functionality and security it provides, that no other crypto coins are necessary to even exist. Period. Therefore creating shitcoins, shilling them, owning them, or even trading them is defacto stupid and pointless. And those that do are regarded with a loss of trust and common sense at best, and at worst are seen as complete scammers. An analogy would be in the Precious Metals world, but a world in which a constant supply of laboratory-created "fool's gold" metals were created, shilled, owned and traded on the open market. Why even do that when you can just own Gold or Silver? The only people that will gain anything by creating and shilling fake metals would be the scammers that created them.

Holy moly *face palm. I recently viewed the chart of the bitcoin and things are not looking good. The bad thing is not only the bitcoin that have bad move because even the whole cryptocurrency market hare also affected wherein a lot of altcoins also go down. The current support have been broken where in the previous support can become resistance or what they call role reversal. I think the price may go deeper at $10,600 because it is the current support level. The RSI is not always looking good wherein it is now creating lower lows and lower highs. If there will be another breakdown then expect that the uptrend already snaps wherein we will welcome bearish market.
We don't care about shitcoins taking a bath; only bitcoin matters here. Also, nobody in this thread will ever welcome a bearish market; those members have left the building. That being said, *facepalms are permitted. I don't know how some people expected this to go to the moon without really retesting the previous huge resistance. For full year, we were trying to break 10500 and now we should go to ATH or 16k without retesting it but for 10 minutes in that flash crash from the first time we went to 12k.
No chance, zero logic in that. That level needs to be properly tested for bull run to continue.
What I fucking hate is that this is lowering my chances to accumulate bitcoins trading alts as they shit themselves as soon as bitcoin farts.
Are you two related retarded? Here, fixed it for you..

Marked your words in my head. I can't merit you because I am finished my allowance but get a whole lot of respect from my side Torque.

Why even do that when you can just own Gold or Silver? The only people that will gain anything by creating and shilling fake metals would be the scammers that created them. Well you pretty much nailed it. I am a BITCOIN MAXIMALIST the the extent that I believe bitcoin will be the only bitcoin. And also is the next bitcoin... and the last bitcoin. And I think well known maxi's being paid a quarter of a mill in shitcoins to promote shitcoins is net harmful. But what I do NOT believe is that there are no other crypto projects that are worthy experiments or fill roles bitcoin cannot or will not. Just that the VAST (over 99%) majority of them are useless at best and scams at worst. So that's it I guess... I'm still not a maximalist... But it seems I am more of one than Adam Back for example. You know Greg Maxwell still has a shitcoin address in his profile here. I suppose I am about as much a maxi as he is... ...so you tell me.

And that's not even counting the house vigorish a.k.a. trading fees and money transfer expenses. Gambling (trading) is a sucker's game.

The Italian stallion seems to know a lot about this particular topic. TBH, I'm not really impressed with the volume so far. I know this isn't going to be a popular opinion, but it feels as if a single entity (or a small whale group) controls everything in the market float from ~$10,5k to $12k. And it looks as if their mega pump hasn't really attracted other whale traders en masse at this point.
It seems nothing has really changed from when I posted this. Until other whale traders come in to play, this single entity is just going to keep splashing around and barting between $11K-12K. Oh Gawd!!!! Moar single entity theories.

Ah yes, but therein your statement lies the difference. 1. Once you strip down a cryptocurrency to it's bare, basic usage as a secure SoV and digital online exchange asset, Bitcoin becomes all anyone will ever need. 2. Once you separate what a crypto can do for you *today*, vs. what all the shitcoins purport to do for the far-away future (i.e., solutions looking for hypothetical, non-critical problems that don't really exist, ergo purely speculative bs with no basis in reality), Bitcoin is still the only cryptocurrency anyone will ever need. Judged against this criteria, the 99% you mentioned above suddenly becomes 100%. "Worthy experiments" (completely subjective btw) should hold no monetary value. See Theranos for example. Filling hypothetical, made-up roles that aren't even a problem should hold no monetary value.

Holy moly *face palm.
[...] The current support have been broken... [...]
The current support line was a fake support line. It was a "delusional support line" from the first pump. Dunno what you are smoking but the support line was barely scratched for a few minutes (10 minutes total if you count all the dips), at around 11200$-ish.

Filling hypothetical, made-up roles that aren't even a problem should hold no monetary value. That is simply the most narrow minded thought process possible When it comes to pow virtual coins. But as long as you want it to be that way you are entitled to do believe that. Not that I think we need 2000 virtual pow coins . I do think only BTC should use sha-256 algorithm I only like 1 coin per algorithm . But hey why not think what you like about BTC. They are not going to make it just BTC and they are not going to make it just one coin per algorithm . So we both want something we aint getten. {sic}
