What a fucking terrifying nightmare though right? Imagine the data they would be getting from you through all of your transactions, anyone that accepted facebooks facecoin would definitely have bots on their page that see how long you check out each item and what not.

like that isn't already happening

Still, it does indicate that some shareholders in Circle view the firm as less valuable. “{I] reckon it’s a combination of liquidity discount applied to private companies + crypto bear market + Circle getting absolutely killed on write down of acquisitions + bear market volumes,” one U.K.-based crypto hedge funder said. In 2018, Circle acquired crypto exchange Poloniex, which has seen its trading volumes collapse since it was scooped up by the firm. Today, it sees less than $7 million worth of crypto trade hands each day. Meanwhile, Binance sees approximately $520M in 24-hour trading volumes, whereas Coinbase Pro sees $37M in daily trading volumes.
Excellent news.

Degenerate bull hatter & Bitcoin monotheist
Sharding is a rabbit hole and orthagonal to the concept/threat of tech companies printing their own global currency.  But I agree it is a deep rabbit hole for Facebook to fall down.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"

 I'm pretty sure MicG is talking about the original not the original.




You can't hurry love
You just have to wait. They say
love don't come easy

(edited to be in haiku form)

Which is, of course, a Supreme fork.

Probably you need to clarify your above statement, jbreher.  

I understand that in the past, you have expressed beliefs that attacking bitcoin, even by fork, is merely a free market dynamic, and therefore, if we believe in free markets, then we should embrace such forkening events.  So, are you still caught up on some kind of suggestion that there is some kind of praise that the bitcoin community should be giving towards various attacks upon it that are likely going to continue, including through various forkening mechanisms?    

Jeeze... lighten up dude or dudette.

We went from Phil Collins to You Can't Hurry Love, which is a song that was first performed by the Supremes. IOW, the Collins version was a fork of the Supremes' original.

IOW you continue in the practice of praising bitcoin forks and likely attack vectors on bitcoin through your analogy.  In that regard, there is no need for me to lighten up about your attempt to paint forks as positives, especially given your recent history in supporting the bcash trash... and likely you have not learned in the right direction from your recent support of scams (aka bitcoin attack vectors).

Facebook is so far removed from Bitcoin's values that I cannot see it as a competitor in our world.  

However, Facebook could start competing against banks.

That no-name business, Chainspace, seems to be ethereum-focused, too.

So, such a focus of shit, could cause facebook to get distracted down the wrong path (or maybe companies do get a lot more excited about various proof of stake mumbo jumbo directions?), possibly because their ego continues to muddy their corporate vision, and they are striving to distinguish their path from a winkelvi-following direction? which would be a BIG mistake.  

Yet, by the way, the winkelvi have also taken a nutjob direction when they created their Gemini "stable coin" with an ERC 20 ethereum base.

Convolution continues in the space - and fear of associating with bitcoin.


Edited to add below response to V8:

wrong
State Sharding that is used by Chainspace, Harmony and Ethereum 2.0 is the future

no, right of course, in the sense that they'll lie to their customers, lose a lot of other people's money and no one will punish them for it

As always... V8 is quicker than me to have identified the importance of this matter and the seeming distracted direction in which facebook seems to be heading with this matter.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
I have one personal Localbitcoins story, in this regard.  About a year ago, maybe a little less than a year ago, I had conducted a cash transaction for about half of a bitcoin around $7k.  For some reason, I had miscalculated and gave the person $600 more than what was the current price (So in that situation I gave the person $3,800 rather than $3,200 - something like that). 

I caught the mistake about 10 minutes after the transaction, and after the person already had left the transaction location with the extra $600 that I had given to him.  Neither of us had intended such a situation, he acknowledged the mistake, and after I repeatedly texted him, and even offered to go to his location to retrieve the $600, he did not do the right thing of returning the $600 to me. 

He also began to call me names in what seemed to be a kind of rationalization for him to keep the $600.  Anyhow, I consider that person to have been a regular person, and even that he had rationalized in his own head that he was correct to keep the extra $600 that I had given to him (windfall), but I still believe (my assumption that people who you meet in person are usually honest) only a minority of people would have kept the $600 in that particular situation... but the real test remains getting into the situation, and test of character about whether you personally do the right thing when given an opportunity to nearly anonymously profit.

Perhaps I am cynical.  But I think the average provider on LocalBitcoins is, how can I put this delicately, statistically less likely to return $600 than the average person in the street. 

You are likely correct.  I am a little bit particular in my localbitcoin's advert, and from those peeps who contact me, I end up screening several of them out.  Yet, overall, the more experienced Localbitcoin participants do seem to tend to have a certain level of shadiness.

I've been interested in PR for the same reasons.

I think Argentina might now have a higher ratio of white people vs taco people, mestizos, black people, etc than the US does.  Their black population is only 9%.  They even have clean public transportation that's not littered with graffiti and level 5 chimpouts 24 hours a day:

What do you guys think of the avatar I made for my ICO?

ICO's are gayer than Rick and Myself, and more lame than Stephen Hawking without his wheel-chair.

I will slap the gay out of both of you and Hawking back to life.

Such a violent inclination that you have there, goldkingcoiner.

Perhaps you have not had any fortuitous trading luck, recently?  No 80x mistakes in your favor?   Tongue Tongue

You accidentally make nearly 100k once, and.... Roll Eyes
I was telling my buddy about you stumbling ass backwards into that money and being Mr. Bigballs and sticking with it. Hopefully it hasn't been completely pissed away yet.

Its in my BTC long term hodl wallet of course Wink

Hmmm. The British Pound used to be 12 oz silver. Now it is central-bank-created paper. Which means that today's British Pound is not the same British Pound of 317 years ago. Which also means that no currency has been with us for 317 years. Sure, it's got the same name, but it is not a 317-year-old currency.

Thx for Clearing that one out Smiley
