[spooderman]

Because they like to add themselves to people's ignore lists.

Why are there two people arguing in the general conversation thread?

C'mon now mr.piggles - what would this place be if it wasn't for a bit of arguing?

Time flies fast

When you're 10, each year is 1/10th of your entire life, so it seems like it goes on forever.

By the time you're 50 one year is only 2% of your life, so it seems like it passes by so much faster.

But yes, time is going by increasingly rapidly. It's a bit disconcerting.

Well, my perspective on quite a few things has changed at various stages of my life, and surely in 20 more years, my perspective will probably change again, if I happen to be lucky enough to live for another 20 years.  Also, these days, sometimes, when I experience something similar to when I was 20 years younger, I will also consider how my perspective and my prior experience had changed the repeated experience.  You may have a point about the perception of the passage of time being different at different ages, and surely there can be some advantages to learning some things while younger, rather than attempting to learn them while older.  No matter the case, our experiences will continue to shape our perspectives and our future experiences. 

By the way, obviously, I had never heard of or even thought of bitcoin when I was your age.

Guys, why even bother keeping up with the minute to minute.

Here's a summary:

1.  Whale pumps bitcoin on PayPal news, hoping to spark a mini-rally
2.  Mini rally fails
3.  Whale slowly sells off coins
4.  Price grinds back down to where it was before rally

Gee, whouda thunk it huh?  

Occam's Razor at its finest  

I think Occam's Razor applies to my theory of the price action since June 1st,

Hal Finney's coins are being sold.

He was the earliest adopter and probably had 500,000 coins.

In June, he started selling because he needed the money for medical bills and the cryo project.

His family is still selling. Soon they will be done selling and up we will go.

BTW the days destroyed won't show it because he moved his coins around a lot.

Is this something we should be concerned about?

No. If you are running linux, update your system, problem solved.

oh noez!

(anyone with a mac that has their coins on a hot wallet was likely to have had them stolen before this was discovered)

[spooderman]

Just to point out, if you generate your private key on a computer that is connected to the internet, the NSA and a probably a bunch of other people know your private key.

Where did you get the figure from?

just a guess.

Ok well done traders and dumpers. Quite the achievement. Pretty much the biggest news we could hope for, Paypal accepting Bitcoin, and you managed to kill the last bit of confidence buyers had and we're back where we were before. But hey, you got your 200 bucks profit right! Edit: actually funny enough most of you most likely ended up losing money because that is simply what the majority of traders do.
Really, well played. I couldn't make this shit up because nobody would believe me that people are this stupid.

Dude, relax. Bitcoin moving from the unpatient to the patient is... actually good news.
