You hang around here long enough, then symbolism happens.  Seems to be part of the package, and don't try to act surprised.  You have become a symbol for quite a while, and you have partly created such, yourself.


I doubt that is an adequate defense.  It is largely attempting to frame the current direction of bitcoin as if it is NOT bitcoin, when the current direction of bitcoin includes segwit (since about August 2017) and has become bitcoin through more than 95% consensus.. so in that regard, you are not really reasonably able to get segwit out of the bitcoin, unless you are able to achieve a significant high level of consensus.. perhaps somewhere approaching 95%, but maybe with some whining and complaining, you might be able to get agreement about lowering the consensus threshold levels to remove segwit from bitcoin.


This is just going back to the symbolism point, but really, jbreher, we have to be careful about taking anything too personal on the internet anyhow.  Of course, sometimes I can get pretty pissed off at some of the WO posters, but sometimes those emotions will just blow over and with some passage of time, they might even be forgotten - if the personality (or on line persona) is NOT too grating.  Of course, with you personally, sometimes, I find your points to be extremely provocative, ridiculous and even bordering on disingenuous - yet sometimes, I will see that you make decent points too, which can be helpful to members (or even readers) to consider another perspective (yours, as jaded and/or pie in the sky as that might seem to be  ). 

Maybe. I’m shorting it very cautiously.

Is not going to happen. They will as usual make a lot of noise and then our usual drunks, Tusk and Stuka will settle the issue.

An actual european army would be the biggest disaster of the century. As in, the past hundred years. Bigger than even the two hundred million corpses brought about by socialism. We can not afford to let it happen.

MAN did i expect to see something else on my charts

refresh,
thats nice man everybody does like a x-mass present...
i didn't bought coins actualy, but just some presents some could be BTC-related
looking forward for x-mass

A quote from the interview:
Jay Clayton, chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), said Tuesday that he doesn’t see a pathway to a cryptocurrency ETF approval until concerns over market manipulation are addressed.“How that [manipulation] issue gets addressed, I don’t have a particular path. But it needs to be addressed” before an ETF gets approved, Clayton remarked during CoinDesk’s Consensus: Invest conference.


There has been some progress recently regarding vaneck addressing the manipulation issues. Vaneck declared who are the partners for OTC deals. They will be regulated by CFTC.
https://www.cryptoglobe.com/latest/2018/11/vaneck-subsidiary-mvis-reveals-the-otc-exchanges-behind-the-bitcoin-etf-index/
Circle OTC platform - Circle Trade is one of them. I've read somewhere that currently CFTC is auditing their activity (USDC etc.).

I don't know if Clayton is sincere or he is just hiding behind this 'manipulation' mantra.
1. Vaneck ETF proposal is desinged for accredited, not retail investors.
2. The deals will be made by OTC desks. As noted in the presentation, manipulation of the price of OTC deals is impossible without the participation of the desks themselves.
3. OTC desks will be regulated by CFTC, which already began its work.
4. It is seen in the last months that any rumour about manipulation of Asian usdt exchanges (so far not proven) is punished by the USA exchanges with lower prices.

Finally, it seems that 2 commissioners are for ETF, and in Dec. one more will be replaced. Whatever the staff decides it will be up to him to determine the approval of the ETF.

Of course Italy will be the catalyst.  That's one reason Jew puppet Macron is trying to shill for a "European army".  The military is nothing more than the collection agency of the international zio-banks.  How else are you going to attempt to get Italy to pay?  You can't.

WTF!

Isn't this thread supposed to be just tumbleweeds now?

Now, how do I get up to date?

This is not how capitulation works, mind you.

I will settle for the total collapse of the EU and its currency : The Euro.

I have a feeling this will happen and Italy will be the catalyst.

While it is true that technically, block size can be scaled up, the Core has already demonstrated that it is hostile to the very idea of inexpensive tx fees. What with gmax drinking 'champaign' over $50 fees and whatnot.

No, we don't need 128MB blocks today. But the time to scale up the blocksize was before the blocks became persistently full. Now, no business with any brain is willing to bet their livelihood on the chance that block size will be increased in order to stave off the next blockalypse. Those whose business models were destroyed in 2H17 are unlikely to return. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice... fool... won't get fooled again.

And you can dissemble all you want, but the demand for Blockstream's paid Liquid (so-called-but-not-really) Sidechain is undeniably increased in the face of chain congestion. Whether or not this was a causative factor in the Fail To Scale[tm] is irrelevant. It will be seen as intentional by at least a segment of the target market.

Start of WW III - this picture means Salvini soon goes full Mussolini.  Puts rapefugees in camps first, Jews next:

not much love for rsk?

No. However, the question was raised as to who was gifting bitcoin. I was one of the few (only?) who replied, and I am taking flak for it. I mean WT actual F?

You are publicly displaying an astounding level of ignorance by assuming what I am gifting, and being hostile besides by using this as a vector to denigrate my preferences.

If you want to have an intelligent conversation on the topic, go mine my posts for the last several years first to understand where I'm coming from. After your dropping instantly into attack mode, I ain't gonna spoon feed you. And if you insist on continuing to argue from ignorance, I'm done with this convo.

I love how the Jew supremacists of the thread chose this particular picture to try and pretend whites are the inferior race compsed of irrational, ugly, and stupid people who just can't stop irrationally gassing the Jews for no reason. The guy in the picture isn't even a Nazi, it's a fucking confederate flag.  I think that picture was from when SJWs (useful idiot NPCs of the Jews) were trying to tear down confederate monuments to try and delete all white history so they can be malleable people of no past, and you just can't have white people self-governed with state's rights when the goal is a global, communist govt run by Jews either.

The fact there's an angry lesbian attempting to start a fist fight...with a man...to try and protest against state's rights and sovereignty just demonstrates why women should never be allowed to vote.  Meanwhile, the outlier fat and ugly white people you use as your examples are roughly equivalent to non-outlier, regular Jews who typically always look like this:



Or this:



Oh yea, and Hairy McLairy is an actual, real-life Jew shill kike for anyone that didn't know.

finally caught a merit to Spend one for this post

awesome LOL

Agh, yeah that trick, tried many times, never worked... .  

The SegWit Omnibus Changeset, anyone?


Yours and its ilk are possibly compelling, MoneyButton certainly is. It will be interesting to see what the author's contributions will lead to. _opreturn. read.cash. A DB interface over the raw blockchain is certainly the type of infrastructure that can be used for good. ERC721 tokens. KeyPort. Coinfunder. ChainTip. BitcoinCashKit. Flowee. BitBox. ka-ching. HandCash...


Anything involving mundane day to day commerce.
