Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Gold getting schooled? It's older and more experienced. There are still some tricks up its shiny sleeve. Then it'll have to pass the torch.

Gold is too old to rock, no more rocking for gold.

you wish..  Tongue

If you're not excited by the idea of being an early adopter 'now', then you should come back in three or four years and either tell us "Told you it'd never work!" or join what should, by then, be a much more stable and easier-to-use system.

To close the gap to Bitcoin, gold would have to double. Possible, and even probable (for physical gold), but then again - nobody has argued that gold would outpace Bitcoin's growth. Tongue

As tvbcof pointed out, they have nearly identical purposes, but are in different classes.

Gold is on the launchpad, its purpose to escape the the planet's gravity. It's a short event, taking minutes until in orbit.

Bitcoin gets launched from space and is gaining momentum for interplanetary travel. Velocity is built up over time, taking weeks to months.

They would even sell derivatives on their grandma, if they smelled profits. Just wait that they notice BTC. Paper promises are just that, and there is always plenty of suckers.
Moreover they have more reasons to short gold, until BTC become mainstream at planetary level as gold is.

the "unfair competition" as you call it, was "defined" by your compatriot in gold, silverbox.  his definition was the beginning of this thread.  so there you have it.

What do you call Bitcoin futures and options?

Also, Bitcoin is now in the danger zone range of $11-12. Expect about a 10% decline over the weekend.

They don't have enough volume to be the primary driving force behind the price, though. If derivatives were the primary form of exchange instead of direct BTC holdings, then I'd agree. For now, the Bitcoin markets are still heavily dominated by the equivalent of physical gold trading - the real thing is in vogue.

Its not a competition, pretty much everyone here is a BTC bull.

I'm still waiting for that "COLLAPSE"  and "CRASH"  that you called for in the general markets and PM's (Gold in particular)..  Its been 6 months, how long is it going to take?? Wink
