I take it you find amusement in posters who have clearly gone bonkers from money loss?
"Date Registered: May 24, 2011," Somehow I doubt he went bonkers from "money loss". Loss of unrealized profits, at most.

"Date Registered: May 24, 2011," Somehow I doubt he went bonkers from "money loss". Loss of unrealized profits, at most. Whatever the reason, are we in agreement that he is in full-bonkers mode at the moment? EDIT: He could have been loading up on more on the way up, you know.

^ Yes and no. He makes it sound like it's some nefarious force, but what he calls "parasites" are simply a larger number of better traders that took full advantage of the ability to short on the highest volume exchanges, something that didn't exist until 2014. As a result, the market landscape changed substantially. He's right in that sense, imo.

I'm not referring to the parasites thing as much as the "we are going to war and I must defend $XXX" thing he's been on for a while.

I'm not referring to the parasites thing as much as the "we are going to war and I must defend $XXX" thing he's been on for a while. It's part of the same idea. Pre-BFX/OKC: rally time -> get on board everyone! -> bubble in the making, everyone profits Post-BFX/OKC: rally time (or what looks like it) -> everyone gets on board -> savvy traders skim profits from the pigs Sure, nothing entirely new, but the scale of it is different today. The way I understand him, he's trying to drive home the point that we, the "regular" Bitcoin guys should anticipate this strategy and stop blindly following the unmotivated rallies until a "real" rally starts. What he forgets of course is that the distinction between "us" and "them" is unmotivated. Or maybe I'm just reading too much into his posts.

Looks like Ripple has decided to hijack "The internet of money" lmfao. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoixyCNWg5kWhen they hit just over 30% of Bitcoin marketcap we can expect those other 70 billion xrp to be "released" to the market so they can leapfrog bitcoin, just like they did with litecoin. Lol, in the time Bitcoin's market cap has halved, Ripple's has increased 20 fold.

Be careful! Bitcoin is the land of self-fulfilling prophecies.
