Though I doubt Cobra will just sell the domain to someone like Roger, holy fuck if Roger actually gets to own two high-authority Bitcoin domains.
I don't think Cobra will just hand over the domain to Roger, as we can see the reply on twitter. He will definitely hand over to someone trusted and of course a supporter of BTC.
It would be better if some trusted from the bitcointalk forum could have the access of it, may be theymos?

theymos controls too many resources, it's better to pick somebody else, even though he's obviously very trustworthy.


Couldn't you leave the domain to him, for temporary safe-keeping until a worthy candidate is chosen? Or let theymos help you choose one?

Plus do you have a list of names of possible good candidates? Curious.

In the last post on GitHub, the nickname Cobra Bitcoin announced his plans for the future related to leaving bitcoin.org. From the beginning of its existence, this service was aimed at educating new users about the leading cryptocurrency. Cobra Bitcoin announced that he is still looking for the right people who will be able to convince him that the site will be put into "trusted hands".

What will we see from this ...

He will sell it to Roger for $1billion.  Grin

And from that point Roger will have the power to forge the history and the future of bitcoin in whatever way he pleases.

Kind of shows why the Price of Bitcoin keeps dropping , the majority of the bitcoin community are nutjobs.   Kiss

You may need to zoom out a bit, if you believe that bitcoin price keeps dropping.

Bitcoin can't scale, Bitcoin Nutjobs don't care, Cobra mentions transferring a domain and the nutjobs lose their fucking minds.  Cheesy

I had not noticed anyone losing their minds in these various threads that had been responding to Cøbra's bringing up of his intention to retire his profile and accordingly is considering take over or ownership transfer possibilities, but you seem to be getting a bit excited about the topic.

https://cointelegraph.com/news/roger-ver-wants-to-buy-bitcoinorg

I glanced at that article, and weird way to end it with Greg's quote...   They apparently did not reach out to Greg, but they thought that reaching out to Roger was a great idea for article content and supposed due diligence.   Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

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

it is amazing how many of you are concerned about his domain transfer ,
but could care less how Greg Maxwell and Blockstream have fucked over bitcoin while getting a payoff from the Banking Cartels.  Tongue
Sounds familiar as i have heard this quote somewhere  Grin. But yet to find the banking cartels. BCH is also funded as well as BSV if those are cartels then you might be spot on Tongue.

Kind of shows why the Price of Bitcoin keeps dropping , the majority of the bitcoin community are nutjobs.   Kiss

3.49% increase in bitcoin price and going up, looks like the cartels have seen your message and fucking with you pumping the price  Tongue Cheesy.

You guys that claim any price increase are very selective, using the dead cat bounces as your origin point.   Wink


You are really good at making up shit (well maybe "good" is not the right word).  Anyhow, have you heard of straw man fallacy?  You just make up some kind of weak argument and attribute that to your opponent then say that you were right because your opponent has a weak position... blah blah blah..


Anyhow, zooming out for 4 years, for example?  What do you see?

How about if you look a that whole cycle, and then you attempt to postulate whether the December 2018 bottom of $3,124 was the bottom.  Where do you get when you look at broader price moves?

Yes.. I understand that you are hoping that there has been a BTC down cycle since the June 2019 top of $13,880, and maybe you want that as a starting point of your analysis.

Whatever happens to be your analysis seems to be considerably weak and based more upon wishful thinking rather than really trying to grapple with actual BTC price dynamics and the likely BTC price direction in the coming years.




Bitcoin's price reached a peak of nearly $20,000 per bitcoin in late-2017.
Over ~2½ years later, price is on average less than half that.

Yes.  That happened in 2013 too.. remember?  Remember it took 3 years to get back to the November 2013 high of $1,163.  I remember that there were a lot of bitcoin bearshills in 2014, 2015 2016 who were saying that BTC would never get back to its previous ATH levels that were the $1,163 levels.

So until $20K is achieved you are living in a slump.

If you have been dollar cost averaging for the past three years, then your costs per BTC are going to be around $6k per BTC...

Don't have to get back up to $20k to be profittable, and in fact you are decently profittable, even if BTC prices were only $7-ish.

Of course, there are other variants upon BTC accumulation methods, and since the BTC price has been lower than $10k for a considerable amount of time in the past 3 years, it is quite likely that there are a variety of ways, even if you messed up several times, to be somewhere close to profits, even at these current BTC prices.


The way people claim bitcoin is a success when it is failing is a sure sign that a nonsensical nutjob belief system is in place, instead of an actual observation of reality.
 

How's your no coiner status doing?  Do you have other investments that are doing better?

LN is a 3rd party system that works better with litecoin than bitcoin,
litecoin has better onchain scalability 4X that of bitcoin , but bitcoin nutjobs ignore that.

 Cool

Great.  You have been investing in litecoin?  How's that been going?  I cannot imagine too many scenarios to been doing well with any kind of a long term litecoin investment plan, even though it has had some price spike periods, but personally I do not recommend people fuck around with short term matters or various shitcoins, and in that regard, bitcoin is the only game in town when really looking at fundamentals.  Anyhow, if you look at litecoin over the past 5 years, you would be about even in terms of the price now as compared with 5 years ago.  In bitcoin you would be up about 40x.. so seems like there is much more upward potential with bitcoin as compared to litecoin just by following a dollar cost averaging accumulation system.   But hey, do what you want with your various levels of seeming distraction.

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

I did not attack him or his behaviour. Its simply that there are people leading the project and not "the community".
Of course theoritical it can be choosen by the community, but practical these people and major DEV lead Bitcoin. When you want to bring in something new, they say "create an altcoin or fork"

I was having trouble replying to that, but first I had to make sure who Gavin might be.
And when I did - amidst congratulating hv_ for his sharpness - I decided not to. Roll Eyes



Anyone else want to play , add up how much better off you would be if you sold everything at the $20K peak , of which is forever gone.

Quoted for posterity when BTC hits $20k again - this year.

Other than that, yeah-ey, your shitcoinz to the moooooon. Tongue

Reread the above in Bold RED, Confused_Fury.

Cobra got this,

it is amazing how many of you are concerned about his domain transfer ,


Of course, but you would want it to handed over to some like, Roger Ver? Right? Go to https://www.bitcoin.com, click "Buy Bitcoin". Cool

Is that what you want?

theymos is also giving, and patient enough to let your trolling ass stay.

Okay.

The longest chain not only serves as proof of the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest pool of CPU power.

BCH and BSV = Emergency Difficulty Adjustment, or life-support to avoid having been stillborn with an insufficient hashrate to even survive, let alone propagate.

Didn't even make it past the 'Abstract' on the first page.  Perhaps your preferred chain is not as well represented by the whitepaper as you like to imagine.

Lol

Any idiot can build a longer chain, but not with honest mining and enforcing the Satoshi rule set

Sure, one bit needs to be unfucked from ABC shitlord, that s true and EDA must go asap.
Afaik it is on the road map. But its not a consensus relevant issue, working transactions is the most critical thing

What is your purpose here? you aren't listening to anyone who responds to you

You are convinced BTC is not BTC but something else is, you offer feeble arguments that avoid the main points.

Dancing around the main facts and coming up with at best the argument something else is more like the initial white paper. Despite the fact bitcoin had moved on significantly from that before Satoshi was taken from us.

Assuming there is no point in arguing with you? or you with the people here? what is the point?

What is you main intention? Magically change all our opinions? Or troll.
