Wow, this is one of the best quotes

Quote from: andreesen
If you’re used to living in a world where you trust people and institutions, then it probably does seem weird and bizarre that you would trust something where you don’t know who created it. But if you’re in a world where you trust numbers and math and code, it doesn’t matter. There is no appeal to authority. You evaluate it on the basis of the math. It’s just math

Crazy.  If we can just get those damn miners to shut off their rigs, the price of BTC would esssssplode!  Obvious inverse correlation!

You should look into pirates vs the climate. Wink

All-pro extrapolation, demonspawn.
My chart is as irrelevant to BTC exchange rate as the original posted by cypherdoc.

I could definitely see something like btm catching on around the Internet in the future.
What the fuck is BTM?

Just another altcoin called Bitmark.
Doesn't seem to be "Just another altcoin", marking is pretty awesome.

There are so many flavors of alts, and most of them are re-hash of non-original code.  Anything is possible in that space, and saying otherwise is pure speculation.  I do think that Mark Pfennig, coinsolidation is his user name in the forum, has a unique take on usability and adoption.  The notion of marking can be integrated with almost anything, including the Overstock/XCP notion of a securities marketplace.  Imagine how marking and reputation would integrate with that marketplace (read more here if interested: https://github.com/project-bitmark/marking/wiki and if not interested, that's cool, too....perfectly understandable)

Another Billionaire investing in bitcoin companies

New York City-based SolidX has raised $3m to bring financial instruments – including ‘total return swaps’ – to large institutional bitcoin investors.

Founded in early 2014, SolidX’s funding round came from a group of investors led by Liberty City Ventures and hedge fund manager James Pallotta.


http://www.coindesk.com/solidx-raises-3-million-give-institutional-investors-better-access-bitcoin/

"James Pallotta (born March 13, 1958), is an Italian American investor and hedge fund manager and, since August 27, 2012, the president of the Italian association football club A.S. Roma.

In 2005, he had income of about 200 million dollars as Managing Director of Tudor Investment Corporation. Pallotta's net worth has been estimated to be more than a billion dollars. In addition to his investment in A. S. Roma and other investments, Pallotta is a minority vanity shareholder in the Boston Celtics.[2]"


Did a little research. Pallotta founded the Raptor Group which offers Raptor Capital Management a $192 million fund

Would be nice if he begins offering btc to clients as well

you can palpably feel the incremental adoption of Bitcoin spreading round the world.

I penned a newsletter at the San Jose conf back in 2013 called Wall Street versus Silicon Valley. In other word,  paper pushers versus productivity drivers.

I still think Silicon Valley wins.

Dow down 150

There's no question is struggling. Like I said, All the major indices have weekly or intermediate term sell signals on.  I'm looking for a particular structural configuration that occurs at the majority of all major tops.  Unfortunately, it'sa  piece meal process that will take weeks to months

My view is that what happens to the stock market will have long lasting effects on the adoption of Bitcoin.

It won't happen ! ASICs company will temporary jack up the market in order to let their ASICs sales and this should be push back to 400+ in few days. If they don't do this they will have to end their ASICs business.
