Just curious... What you guys would say is the probability YOU give to Bitcoin to be over $10.000 at any moment during the next 4 years? honestly.
100.1%
No, really. Even 100% would be way too much.

Really.

Next four years ? That's an eternity for Bitcorn.

Considering that the next block halving will occur before the next four years, it's simple math and supply/demand that we'll be above $10k before then.

I BELIEVE !!!

Yeah but 100% doesn't exist in anything. Otherwise you would just sell everything and put it into Bitcoin again. Let's just say you consider a 95% chance? That is still a fucking awesome asymmetric bet!

https://www.businessinsider.nl/didi-taihuttu-sold-everything-for-bitcoin-fans-2017-12/?international=true&r=US

He's the famous man everyone knows from the news in Belgium & the Netherlands. Sold everything (incl his house) to invest in BTC . Some think he's insane, some think he's brilliant.

I think he is sorta insane no matter what the outcome is. If Bitcoin goes to $100K and he is able to hodl until then some would say he was brilliant... not me. There is high probability the outcome will be good, but still it does look like a very risky/insane thing to do. I wish him all the luck of course!

The guy is a genius. He has garnered a lot of attention and social media following via the MSM news articles about his sacrifice to King Bitcoin soon to be ruler of the 100k throne. His monetizing of social media as he documents the adventures and experiences of his family Im sure will more than pay for any loss he might ever incur.

Apple products are expensive. You can tell that just by looking at the high margins they have, which they do have thanks to economies of scale that go directly to their profits account instead of a lower price for the customer. Other than that, Apple products are excellent.

The base iPad is actually pretty competitively priced for the hardware (which is a shame because I loathe Apple).

wtf, more and more people are arguing with roach. at least stop quoting him or risk getting ignored by the rest of us WO's.

^^^ Please.
This place can be vaguely entertaining and informative when the drivel is removed.

Yes. A high % of drivel here atm.

Although roach is bigoted and some of his theories are wild, a lot of the replies are pointless ad hominem attacks.. To an impartial observer who has no opinion to start with,  roach's posts might have a semblance of logic.

Is this akin to the de-platforming of extremist views ? Should free speech be aired in order to debate both the wrong and the right ideas ?

If posters really must reply, at least engage with the points made, or ignore.

Optimistically, a high % of nonsense posts could (maybe) indicate we are in the bottom-forming phase.

"To an impartial observer who has no opinion to start with,  roach's posts might have a semblance of logic." LOL wut?!

I notice more posts urging Virgin Roach responders to self censor than actually urging to censor Virgin Roach. If people really are annoyed with him and want to censor him, than why not all get together and request infofront ban him. If you want to let him have free speech than why all the debbie downer chastising of those who gallantly engage with him in the name of the mighty King Bitcoin. Surely we deserve to have our say.

If you insist on letting the insane drunk at the bar act a fool, then dont guilt trip patrons of the bar for smashing his head against the wall when he acts up.

I also notice the same posters trying to get people to stop engaging him are also short term bearish and calling for new lows(maybe shorting on the sly too ehh..) Roll Eyes.

It seems to be the "hell no muthafucka we aint going under 3k Cool" believers taking on Virgin Roach atm.

In a bear market sure, its cool to sit back and let Virgin Roach drivel on about BTC heading to zero, but the Bull Market is here in many peoples opinions and its time to feed him estrogen and experiment on him as we head to 100k. Also my Jewish employers dont just pay me Bitcoin to hit the ignore button on their arch enemy ya know.

Now fight me! Wink

JK. But, the beatings will continue until Virgin Roach visits Israel and Africa.

It appears shitcoiners are still trying to trick people into believing shitcoins are made of physical gold instead of being imaginary, valueless tokens.

@jbreher, are you talking BTC or the bit'alts ? to hit that 100K ?

My hope is that it would be SV. As time goes by, hope diminishes. I will continue to think big blocks is the proper scaling solution regardless of the outcome.

If SV or ABC hit anything approaching 100k, I win extra-bigly. If BTC approaches 100K, I win something less bigly. Either way, future's so bright, I gotta wear shades.

Good you keep on the originals as well.....


He probably has way more BTC than most people here... Of course that is just MY speculation.

P.S.: For sure he also has huge heaps more Bcash (both flavours) than anyone else here Smiley

And as a single anecdotal data point, I steadfastly resisted iOS, waiting for years for Android to solve their audio latency issues. I finally gave up. Maybe today, you can run music apps such as soft synths, DAWs, drum machines, etc. on Android. Back when I made the switch, the unbounded variable latency made it impossible on Android, no matter the manufacturer.

For all I know, you still can't, at least with the stock OS. It simply wasn't designed with realtime in mind. I think there was some experimental kernel that supposedly took care of that, but I never checked it out.

However, I use my phone mostly for... uh, calls and some texts.

Dude... An iPhone running $100 worth of apps from Korg (for example) is synth sound generation capability we couldn't have dreamed of at any price even in dedicated HW little more than a decade ago. Add a couple free metronome and tuner apps, serious memo recorder for capturing ideas, guitar amp sims (external converter desired - impedance mismatch between pickups and mic input make for lousy signal), drum machines, MIDI remappers, BandHelper, ... it just goes on and on.

The miracle of personal computers is that they do more than Fortran calculations - they've become incredible multipurpose extensions of our personal capabilities. And the miracle of smartphones is that they do more than make phone calls - they're general purpose computers with a full suite of IO that's with you at all times.

Hmm... this branch took kind of a weird turn, considering all I really wanted to say was 'I can understand that choice of platform is a singular thing, but to call Apple products flawed incapable garbage is nonsense'. Smiley

Thanks for the merits, dear sirs. Much appreciated Smiley

F*** i have difficulties with keeping those sendables......  but you got so much activity just need some more MERIT to get it to HERO, and i was waiting to, for once be the one that could give a JUMP KICK under the ass of getting there
(also THX to marcus, otherwise i was sitting with 0Smertis as a bum as well)
also think those 10 are very very very well spend
the rest of them will flow in smaller amounts Grin

Yup, let's just make d_eddie a more than deserved hero already!

I would give him a good push if I could. I am sure there's people with some expendables that could help here!

Indeed Wink

However, I use my phone mostly for... uh, calls and some texts. And I much prefer hardware than obeys to me first, and to its maker second. With Apple it always feels like it's the other way around.

Agreed, you never use plugins to record, only to mix.  If you record with them, you can't undo it.  Plug-ins are purely for the mix / post-production.

And if the pre-amp/ mics are good, a laptop is perfectly fine for tracking excellent audio, I would not think twice - the data rate is minimal. The room is far more important than the computer it's tracked on.  As for 96K? Why bother? It makes it way more cumbersome (at least 4 times the file size), but IMHO is pointless since no one can hear the difference. Except maybe dogs.

One exception about plugins: a zero-latency reverb if the singer needs it to feel comfortable and you're going 100% ITB.

I have some mistrust for laptops, but maybe it's just me. 50 simultaneous tracks at 96k... it just doesn't feel right.

And I agree, the room is the first issue. Take care of that, and only then think about boutique mics, preamps or converters.
