Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[Hueristic]

Welp, vaccinated today guess I'll make through till the next one.

Ha ha, me too (Pfizer), not sure if they injected saline or something (completely inactive) as I did not feel anything, at least locally.
People who are vaccinated with virus vector vaccines at least report something, which may be indicative of a response (soreness, slight fever).
There is no way for me to check that they kept this stuff at -70oC. I might check for antibodies in 3-4 weeks.

Same here, barley felt it, super fine needle.

I think 18 days should be max effect timing.

my brother wanted to sell me his 'used' tesla a 1.5 years ago? 2 years...I just remember it was 7.5 BTC...I probably would have done this IF he would have

kept the BTC...I'd be sad ..but at least the brother would have some BTC. But 'missed that bullet' sheesh...7.5 BTC for such...I would be 'sad' now...very, very

sad.... so HODL.

Was paying my kids .1btc to rake the yard years ago. They are happy now.

I remember signature campaigns that paid 0.1 BTC per week....remember PayCoin? Before GAW went completely rotten?

I THINK I got 0.33 BTC for running their chain for a week or so ..so they could setup POS with my 2013 KNC Jupiter Miner I had to 'dust off' after a couple years..the

last hurrah...everyone mined for PayCoin...I mined it on some exchange for BTC direct..


Wow....hell I used to send you like 1.5 BTC to fix various lots of KNC equipment ....hope you kept it

Brad

 lol GAW "went"
That's the one scam that never suckered me in with their pretty pictures of nonexistent mining devices.

well for 'awhile' you could get the GAW devices...but then they went full Paycoin scam...I mean "scam' wise they had big brass ones...

he could have gotten 20 years..he got 3 years...supposedly by the article below he will be released this year

https://cointelegraph.com/news/ceo-behind-gaw-miners-paycoin-ponzi-scheme-sentenced-to-21-months-in-prison

wanna bet that he 'does not' have some BTC stashed someplace...unlikely he does not, IMHO!

Brad

 While I agree that they were initially selling miners, they were acting as a reseller hawking overpriced Gridseed miners.   Once they tried to pretend they were making their own devices, things got really strange.
I'll admit, the images of those hashlets intrigued me but the specs on them given their low-profie appearance were simply not believable.

It would be less wasteful if you would cut them, chop them, dry them and then keep them for when you hunt some meat to fry it on them.

I wonder, why don't you get a badge as the "best hat-maker artist" in this forum....your art is amazing

~snip

 Thanks macson.  That's very kind of you to say and much better than a stinking badge

 

 Gold Hat: "Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinkin' badges!"

Homero (Garza) was released quite awhile ago. I think he ended up serving 18 months for one count of wire fraud, iirc.

 Well what should we have expected from a guy with a handle like that?!  Serves us right!

So I finally signed up for the Fold card, touted for being bitcoin friendly...rewarding you with satoshis every time you spend using the card...

went to the deposit page to load the card with money for spending and...

no bitcoin option. Just a bunch of bank related options.

Sucks. That was the first card I have signed up for in about 20 years only because it was bitcoin friendly. Only to find out it just has a rewards gimmick.

 It was supposed to be a Gold card but they eff'ed up.

 edit: after reading up on it, it seems you can move the Bitcoin rewards from the account to your own wallet - it's not all bad.

[Richy_T]

Perhaps is was a Hold card, discouraging people from spending.

Can that be done on a cheap notebook? The latest Ubuntu requires 4 GB of RAM and Win 10 requires 2GB, maybe it could be a good idea to install a Linux distro which is lighter and run a Win 10 VM above it, or try to run the software needed with wine or one of its many forks and wrappers.

It can definitely be done but it depends on the notebook how well it will perform. Throwing a bit more memory is always a good idea if possible.

While win10x64 will "run" on 2GB RAM, it will likely become a crawling turtle as soon as you run some minor or a major application/s.
The "superfetch" service (carrying a new name in win10 i don't remember right now) will further take up RAM and slow it down even more over time.
Future system updates/upgrades not included.

I used to run 4GB notebooks, but using win10 i had to set my boundary up to 8GB (at least!) for smooth operation.
However, you may find a virtualization software that is easier on the RAM and use an older but still maintained kernel/distro for lower hardware requirements.
Personally, i would well consider some drawbacks on a computer, but RAM figures would always be high.

Thanks for the explanation, the 2GB of ram was what I found on the Internet after a quick search but I immediately thought that was not possible since the number seemed to be so low, I have never used win10, the last win that I used was win7 and even then I used it sparingly as I prefer Linux, but once it became clear win10 was nothing but a spyware software I completely bailed out and decided to not use Microsoft products again.

So glad others have noticed this too.
It's been quiet on here all day, while I posted here in the morning and only seen 5-7 posts after that.
Usually I've seen 10 pages of them by nightfall.
But I guess cause the price stalled out since Friday.
That's what I blame it on for the low numbers of posts on The Wall.

Good move. I was avoiding win10 but recently upgraded my MB & CPU and couldn't even begin to install 7. I ended up going with 10 in the interim but am planning an exit once I get my ducks in a row.

I see an incoming stimmy bitcoin buy to heighten my sat stack.
