With PoW, CPU mining would be the best. Access to CPU processing power is most widespread and CPUs can be utilized to a lot more tasks then just so solve one task. This would be A LOT more energy efficient and less costly to the users of the network.

Nonsense. Regardless of technology, the energy consumption of Bitcoin mining will tend up to the amount where the money spent upon it will be ever so slightly less than the dollar value of the bitcoins mined. Basic econ 101.

But because the bitcoin community is mostly one big echo chamber, this hasn't been exactly discussed.

Nonsense again. It has been discussed over and over and over and...
N00b.

If you want a shitcoin with some other algorithm, there are hundreds to choose from. Why are you focused upon destroying bitcoin?

I've always known you liked it! Wink

Goldman sachs backed Circle just bought Poloniex
what does this mean for bitcoin ?

How much have they paid for it?

"On Monday Circle will announce, as Fortune can confirm for the first time, that it has bought Poloniex, one of the world’s most active cryptocurrency exchanges. A person familiar with the terms of the deal who was not authorized to speak about it tells Fortune that the price tag comes in around $400 million."

Then I think it is somewhat bullish... but not terribly bullish as it had been the case if they would have paid over 1Billion.

Also I assume that price tag doesn't include any "crypto assets" they would have accumulated over time and only the "core business".

Ride it up and ride it down. End of day/week, price doesn't change much.

This means that it's time to move your bitcoins away from Poloniex.

a UK-level of quietude or pussification (take your pick).

"quietitude"[sic]

yes a terrible exception. a teenage self-destructive craze like a spike in suicides or w/e. already under legislative review. inb4 there is a mass of knife crime. yes thugs will always find ways to hurt others and especially themselves. it is still notionally quieter here now that said thugs are gunless.

"quietitude"

The meek shall inherit the earth. Well, meek doesn't mean weak. It means those who are able to kill but refrain from doing so.

And doesn't that describe brits perfectly, and europeans in general? We don't like to fight, but by jove, if we have to do so then we shall give you such a thumping that you shall never cross us again. And we have done quite well since the last war.
