A million μBTC question is therefore, is the slope of the trend changing, to more closely resemble that of 2010-11?

Here's a pretty graph:



this is the speed of adoption that miscreanity underestimated in our earlier debates in 2011.  and he's a young man too.

i'm an old man.  what's that say?:

In 2010 an ounce of gold could buy 40000 bitcoins.

Now it can buy less than 4.

As a result of these developments, right now I have neither 4 ounces of gold nor 40,000 bitcoins.  Cry

I remember when people were talking about silver parity like it was this big thing that might never happen. "But if only it did reach silver parity, maybe then the PM bugs will take Bitcoin seriously." The good old days, nine months ago.

Bitcoin confirms my theory that we shouldn't measure time in a linear fashion in "seconds" but based on how many observable events come to pass in a given process.

In Bitcoin so many things happen so quickly that nine months of linear time seems far away (measured in events) so that we can talk about it like the "good old days"  Grin



I too recently have begin to observe time in fractals instead of constant intervals.

That is both really funny and WOW has it really only been 9 months? I feel like I am 10 years older since 9 months ago.

this is OT, but this vid was mentioned here some time ago,
i put it on documentary thread (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3569469),
and a user asked for background info on James D'Angelo who's doing the 101 Blackboard series on world bitcoin network channel (http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgo7FCCPuylVk4luP3JAgVw/videos).
just doing some research here...
Has somebody any info on this guy's educational background?

James has found his groove.  he's clearly a smart guy.  he's doing a great job with the new blackboard format.

i'd bet he visits this thread regularly given the last gold comparison video he did.  he cited many of the principles i've expounded upon for years now in much the same way.  

he's doing an excellent job.  anyone know his handle around here?

Did you notice that your thread happens to be the only one on the forum tracking the entire Bitcoin price history and people's reactions from 2012 until now? Tongue Even Adam's wall observer thread was rebooted once.

Wonder if the historians of future will scroll through pages to read our replies...

don't forget this thread is just an extension of:

Gold looks foreboding. Bitcoin EXPLODING.

Well you know, we gotta get going.

To get to the parity party.

Edit :  and beyond

I remember when people were talking about silver parity like it was this big thing that might never happen. "But if only it did reach silver parity, maybe then the PM bugs will take Bitcoin seriously." The good old days, nine months ago.

that was a much more significant event than people give it credit for.

gold and silver are linked at the hips more than ppl realize.  silver was supposed to be the metal that REALLY made goldbugs rich in the end as its price projections based on the gold:silver ratio were supposed to head to all time highs with the ratio to all time lows. 

as bullish as i was before, i became 4x more bullish once we passed parity @ around 20.  in order to really understand what is happening, you have to have been a big gold and silver holder.

the supreme quality of his content is out of question, one of the (if not the) best explanatory series i've seen so far that goes much more in depth than others.
he would really be an enrichment for bitcointalk community.
probably he's already registered? (please pm me if you read this, James  Wink)
