Clueless!
still waiting on butterfly lab$ to ship!

I hope their former management are doomed to live a life of mediocrity, until they die from wasting away due to some horrifying malignant disease.

Sorry. BFL Corp took the fall with SEC. I think one person had a 30k fine for mining issues
on site. From what I understand they otherwise kept all the ill gotten BTC.

They are reading this post and ROFLAO at our puny curses 3years later

What seems new here is an open admission by Blockstream CEO that their business plans are predicated directly on Blocking the Stream.

Blocking the Stream... Well, did you derive this nonsense from Blockstream?



Trolling corporate interest in the space is a righteous time-honoured tradition. I trolled Blockstream for a good while, it didn’t get me anywhere—compared to the DCG they might as well be saints.

But I’m still watching…

because the "anonymous" hashpower is @BITMAINtech that's why. @JihanWu is undermining the value of his large BCH hodlings by centralising it

for example if @BITMAINtech were asked to freeze it, mechanically they could because they're majority of the hash rate.

being in central control of a coin is risky for you, and makes the coin less valuable because people understand that risk of freeze.

for BCH that may be ok as a medium security slightly higher scale, on-chain only retail coin, and his choice. but for Bitcoin that is NOT ok

Adam Back reveals Blockstream's plans to make bank off of enabling sidechains.

Everybody is allowed to make and sell BTC sidechains including big blocktards that still hold BCH.

Yes, I agree that this is a decentralized, permissionless environment. Accordingly, anyone is able to implement what they damned well please.

As if we hadn't already surmised...

Who would have thought that the most comprehensive, deep, and balanced review yet written about the upcoming S1X/S2X split would have come from the mainstream media? Laura Shin of Forbes knocks one out of the park.

Even more fun from the fallout:

Adam Back reveals Blockstream's plans to make bank off of enabling sidechains. You know, those things that are necessitated by an insane centrally-planned production quota on blockspace, which leads to transaction capacity limitations upon the main chain.

On Electrum you go on Coins tab and you spend them from there, one by one. Didn't you know that?  Wink

I was a Core man, but have been using Electrum recently and have been quite impressed. Watching-only wallets, like Armory offers, was a deal sealer for me.

Whatever happened to them? Last I heard they had gotten their pants sued off or something.

Naw, just pulling your chain a bit. Tongue

Hehe... yeah I'm a head case for sure. Too bad once the rubberband gets stretched far enough, it never goes back to the same shape it was before. Tongue

Btw, you have to be at the top of the list for one of the most likeable people here. You kinda fill that hole that Adam left behind. Cheers brother.  Grin

Well, this is nerve-racking... Up and down and up and down again...

Without the stupid BCH/BTG/S2X forkathon, we could have already achieved 5-digit values. OTOH, maybe all this is a good thing. Let them come. The harder they hit, the stronger BTC becomes.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
I thought that a little off-putting gayness was keeping with our recent thread theme.

See what happens when you meddle with powers you don't understand ?

Thanks for crashing the price, faggot.

That's right ! I just called you a bundle of sticks !

What are you gonna do about it ?!

I learned a long time ago, when in doubt to deny any kind of responsibility whatsoever.  

Accordingly, I am going to attempt to provide an alternative explanation for our little price crash.


Here goes:
In "price-finding" bullish markets like these, "little price corrections" are, from time to time, "healthy".   Tongue  Tongue

I see your point. I did my transfers with coin control for every single address I had. A bit of a pain but fees were already paid by Roger and Jihan.
Sold @ 0.14 BTC... And I'm living happily after then.

You did very good there! Congrats.

How did you send your coins with coin control?

what, did you expect the truth?

No, actually I didn't. I know the truth.

Wait until the people wake up and realize that the U.S. stock market is actually melting up, and that the major FAANG corporation stocks are continuously rising not because higher profits, but because they are covertly being 'nationalized' by the world central banks right under the peoples' very noses.

ah, fun times, eh?
