Indeed, that's why I have a footprint in at least a little bit of most everything.  Wink

Bitcoin.com still signaling for BU

On reddit a confirmed Dev said they haven't rolled out the BIP91 code to every server but well ....

at least enough other pools joined that the 80% should be met without problems.

Bitcoin.com was signaling for BIP91 then stopped. Also, Gemini has made a statement that they may support BCC while Coinbase (GDAX) will not.

Holy shit, it's about time! Yay!

I am impatiently refreshing the Coin Dance website every 30 seconds or so, for the last two hours. This is going to be epic. If BIP 91 is activated, then there is going to be a huge spike in the exchange rates, unlike anything we had seen in the past. For the BIP 91 to lock in, a total of 50 blocks are required out of the remaining 66 (75.75%). God! This is more intense than the WW2!

Looks like price is reacting to the probability of SegWit locking in! Those of you who bought at 1800~ have made a lot of profit!

Ummm, to the moon? Undecided


Maybe you did not buy any in the $1800s, Allivain?  That is why you are giving the emoji face?

Ah no for sure I did not. I'm cash poor. I just mine and that's it  Smiley

You can still dollar cost average with whatever cashflow you have, no?

I was cash poor in 2015 (during the most recent long bottom), because I had some business issues that kind of blew up at a bad time.

I was not able to buy any between March 2015 and May 2015, but I still managed to buy a few between June and October.  Thereafter, I started to sell very small amounts of the ones that I had bought lower than I sold.. which gave me more and more cash as the price continued to go up.. At first a little and a later a lottle. Wink.

Yah maybe. I kinda sort trade btc with a traditional forex broker so it's a CFD not actual coins. Bought in as low as 180, but because it's very very small lot sizes I'm only up like ~$1800 in profit. So I can sorta trade, just not really gotten heavily into it. I think I'm just better off starting a BTC business and contribute to the btc economy that way instead of sloshing fiat and btc around.

We all have our niches as Searing said.



Of course you  have to tailor your approach to your personal circumstances, and allocate your time and your money in a way that is comfortable to yourself.

I tend to take a relatively conservative approach to my bitcoin investment and strategy.  So, I do find that whenever I add some new aspect to play around with my bitcoin holdings (and moving it around as you say), I have to spend a bit of time to figure out how I am going to do it and incorporate it into my plan. 

For example, I have only recently gotten involved in a small amount of bitcoin lending.  I pretty much went down that path only because another poster was talking about the process.. and initially, I said that I did not do it for various reasons.  Then after he explained the process, I decided to start with a little, and then I added a little more and then I added  a little more.   My point is sometimes there is a bit of a learning curve that is needed to employ before you change your practice, and maybe if you are not willing to put some time into one learning curve or another, then that particular strategy or avenue is not suitable for you at that time in your life.  A similar reason that I never got into mining.. because I did not want to invest in some of the learning curve, even though there are certain payoffs that may not be completely be financial (as you already mentioned in your discussion with Searing)


1) Self-Custody is a right.  There is no such thing as "non-custodial" or "un-hosted."  2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized.  3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

For the BIP 91 to lock in, a total of 50 blocks are required out of the remaining 66 (75.75%). God! This is more intense than the WW2!

As I type, it appears that the locking in of BIP91 is pretty much a done deal.  At first, we thought it was a nailbiter; however, in these final hours, the BIP91  signaling really picked up...

Currently, there are only 35 blocks remaining in this signal period and 20 of them need to be BIP91 in order for BIP91 to lock-in.  Therefore of the remaining blocks, only 57% need to signal BIP91 in order to lock it in, and then we move on to the next stage... of this matter which has to first do with the locking in of segwit and next with the activation of segwit.... It is quite likely that some of the drama has been quelled by this BIP91 locking in (and so quickly, too); however, it is likely that more drama will o.k. because THIS IS bitcoin.


Anyhow,  let's move on guys (and girl).   Wink  Our next relevant step is the monitoring the locking in of segwit.  That part should not be controversial, right?  We are going to need some new graphs and charts for such monitoring.... Exciting!!!

I went to bed anxious about how close it was and woke up to this. Nice. Let's see how smoothly, or otherwise, the aggressive bip91 deployment process goes. I suspect every remaining pool will be scrambling to signal segwit to not be left with orphaned blocks very shortly and it will be a non-event. Only 3 pools remain not signalling BIP91 but they can't be living in a cave and have been ignoring this. They're just protesting futilely.

Who said anything about hard fork? That's the next hurdle since BIP91 activates BIP141 which is a soft fork so no users need to adjust their nodes. If 2x goes ahead in 3 months' time and most users remain on core nodes, we have a split where the vast majority of users will be using a client running off a minority hashrate chain.

For all his vocal support of hard forks, he doesn't seem to have figured out what they actually are yet.

I hope we can get there seeing miners showing their strong commitment these days.

Super auto refresh is great. It's even better than firefox's reloadevery because it remembers which pages have refresh set and how much and uses it automatically next time you navigate there.

13/28 - We crossed the 50% barrier. Time for fireworks!

After BIP91 locking in having been activated, according to my interpretation, a miner cartel with 51% of the hashrate (that reverts to a non-BIP91 client) would be needed to not lock in Segwit. (Please correct if wrong). Very, very unlikely.
