...lol with the recent news from Russia re competing with China in Bitcon mining - coupled with the faux China ban , and taken into context with the usual bullshit the MSM spout..

This "supposed" Russia "ban"

Who could really give a flying fuck.

Not me that is for sure.

Not a single fuck given.

(Even if Putin were to come into my  house and smack the hardware  wallet outta my hands I would still laugh in his face)

He would do a little martial arts on you, and you would not be laughing, then ...  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

With current USA gun laws, if a foreigner comes and smacks anything precious out of the houseowner's hands, are you really sure it is the trespasser who's going to laugh last?

I think Ted E Bare and HarryMMMM have a much better chance, or maybe Cryptoqueen.

About the referendum it is indeed ilegal, as anyone that knows spanish law and constitution do inmediately realize. It was the Judges and not the government who sent the police to seize the ballot boxes.

Such laws are bull shit. Referendum for independence should be every Earthing right. And specially every Europeans right.  Europe dont exist without it. It is simple as that. Countries that dont care of their citizens rights have nothing to do in Europe.

Nobody living in EU would speak about Europe like that - do you live in Europe?

I would.

52%. Is anyone believing that could pass 60% before November?

It was 87% just a few months ago so.... why not?

I would say it has more run up than down from here.

Sure it is nice to see some gaining on the bitcoin side of the ledger in this overall crypto marketcap space; however, BTC's gaining is not any kind of meaningful measurement of the value of bitcoin, when we have certain kinds of dilution through forkenings and even some artificial pumpenings of the appearance of competitive market caps by some of the alts that restrict their supplies and engage in other shenanigan measures to increase their coinmarketcap.com showings.

Furthermore, Ripple, really?

Anyhow, nice to see bitcoin gaining in spite of some of the bullshit shenanigans - on the other hand, even if bitcoin were to become 30% or less of the space, under certain circumstances, it's relative market cap remains only part of the formula - and perhaps there is some value to have some folks putting money into distractions and likely inferior products that may well provide them some short term gains or even longer term gains if they can identify and invest in a foundationally strong "competitive" crypto product, rather than a smoke and mirrors product...

Seems like we're experiencing the usual correction/profit-taking after today's jump up past $4.9k.

How long will this last? Yesterday's lasted almost a day.

My guess is that the resistance and fiat profit-taking will increase as we approach the ATH.

This might take another day or two.


At least we have a floor consolidated at $4000.

the world is a globe, so it's already 1.
unless you mean one fuhrer or a(nother) bureaucratic monster to rule it, in which case you better count me out.

I meant that we should live together happily instead of fight each other's differences.
Not that it needs to be one country.

I'm not suggesting the fourth Reich under dictatorship.

Illegal or not, you shouldn't beat your own people for: a) Peacefully protesting. b) Voting.


I do completely agree. AFAIK noone was beaten for that (trying to vote or peacefully protesting). Police had strict orders from Judge to seize ballot boxes, the only people that were beaten were actively hindering (not sure if that is the right english word) the police job. In fact, in most the places they were not able to comply orders because it would have mean a major confrontation and put people (and police units themselves) in higher danger. It was an extremely complex operative, probably the most complex this country has ever coped with.

I do also recognize this incident have had a very bad impact in international media. It would have been way better to have intervened way sooner and just arrest the promoters of the rebelion without exposing any law-abiding citizens to any innecesary risk.

What possible motivation could there be for removing someones freedom of expression by using law?
It is acceptable that a government may take a different view to a sub set of it's people, but it is not acceptable that a government denies those people from  expressing themselves in a peaceful way,



It is a common misunderstanding that freedom of expression is an unlimited freedom. It isn't. You can't publish clearly racist manifests, etc...

But this is not a matter of free speech. It is a matter of breaking the law.

Expressing anything (not ilegal) in a peaceful way is ok.

Who has said/or done anything against that?

Lol, the only thing they expressed in a peaceful way is their desire to separate from Spain. Which was promptly declared illegal and hence the following violence. Also, I do not think they expressed or published racist manifests... .

YOu are right, they didn't (mostly) it was just an example that even freedom of expression has limits but, as I said, this is not a matter of freedom of expression.

The "violence" you are referring to was the outcome of police following an order from the Judges to seize the ballot boxes of an illegal "referendum". No videos I have seen show the people peacefully cooperating with law enforment on their task, on the contrary you can clearly see people actively obstructing the judicial mandate.

Anyone has the right to express their desire to separate from Spain or anything else that is not clearly ilegal (as blatant racism as an example) but NOONE has the right to be above the law and obstruct law enforcement in a task that has been ordered by the Judges. I don't think that is allowed anywhere in the world.

That said... I would have put all this shitshow to an end way sooner going directly for the promoters of the rebellion.  It is sad and very unfortunate things let go up to this point.

So far there are no promotors of rebellion. Only promotors of independency. The Spanish government has made a terrible mistake by obstructing the referendum. They should have supported it and have promoted the no voters. Which now in a strange way, stayed home. Probably because they were afraid of potential violence induced by their government.

From what I see there are two things
 - people should be heard even if you disagree
 - the world should unite instead of break down

Ok, so I can go and do a "referendum" with a bunch of my friends and decide, for example, that we are not going to pay any taxes anymore?
So if the miners decide to hardfork you follow them? Or do you stick to the consensus rules you choose? Imo Bitcoin shows the flaws of our legacy governance systems. They are are not able to soft fork. Only hard forks possible. Either you are with us or against us. Where it leads to can be found in various history books. Seems learning from past mistakes is impossible.


In the bitcoin world, if someone creates their own fork, and some hash power follows, nothing happens.

If you declare independence in the real world (create a government "fork") you'll be beaten, jailed, and/or killed.

Can now Barcelona go a do a "referendum" and secede from catalonia? Can Girona?

Maybe they can.... is it legal? No. Do they have the right? No. Should they have that right? I don't think so, but it is of course opinable.

That said... I don't think any country would let me independence from it (and not pay taxes) while leaving inside its territory. Also, it would probably a chaos if it were possible because..... who the fuck wouldn't independece then? Who would pay taxes? Who would build roads, hospitals  or anything?

I don't think it is that simple as saying that there's absolutely no limits to freedom.

P.S.: If anyone knows of a country where that is possible (and living is GOOD), just tell me. I can relocate Smiley


If the colonists of the New World had thought that same way, there would be no United States of America.

Just sayin'.  Wink

But I don't live there where you live, so I can't judge. I'm sure the Spanish people will figure it out eventually.

Also, think about Bitcoin. Do the people have the "right" to create and use their own form of private money outside their government(s)? Granted by whom?

I just can't realize what would protect someone from anyone else from being abused by other individual if there is no higher authority or controlling system or laws/rules in place that have been agreed by all the rest.

You really believe that there will be a cop there to defend you if someone tries to kill you in the street?
That's funny.
