What's the relevance? No crypto support that I can detect:

You can pass in any three characters and it will be treated as a valid currency code.The reason for this is that it allows support for future currencies. For example, Bitcoin can be supported with its currency code 'XBT'.


..........

The relevance is newly developed payment request API being deployed - W3C  has been working on it for some time (since 2013) It will improve checkouts - and be usable and inter-operable across all major browsers- and in app social media platform browsers....in a push towards standardising payment methods - a push towards currency agnostic web payment standard to streamline checkout and user experience... and seeing as BTC is touted as a means of sending value online-  it is relevant.. its Bitcoin- its Google-its W3C it Chrome, Edge Firefox-facebook its the fricken internet. The fact they even use XBT as an example is enough- but the I hope understood implication of "build it and they will come" should make sense to you...

Do you honestly think they decided to simply use XBT as an example for no reason..?  methinks not.

Sure as  of today right this second -it doesn't mean much- but the implication is obvious? non?

Today - right now does it allow for receiving BTC payments using the payment request API- no.. (well yes actually, people just need to start coding and integrating it;) but will it in say 6-9 months have been rolled out- yes I believe so!!  - this has just been released as a stable build expect coders to code and businesses to integrate.. and as it has the capability to support "future currencies" whaddya suppose they are referring to? SDR's? (lol)

It is just another step towards mainstream and ubiquity and general acceptance.

I thought a cryptocurrency thread was a relevant enough place for it - outside of a google developers forum-maybe its just me?

You're never too old to think young.

How many times does China have to "ban Bitcoin" before there's nobody left to give a f*ck.

Nice one Jimbo, I was just having similar thoughts this morning and yes, what resilience there is. 
Looks like 4k will be a new floor soon.

I don't know Why but i Just want to make same ATH guess like last time
Rules ....: the one  with the right date of ATH gets .25 btc paid directly  (UTC time)    (closest to ATH.....)
I look to Every page in here from now When a date is picked first iT cannot been taken again ( 1st =1st)
Another .25 btc is rewarded for ho makes best of technical analyse of the time When we strike ATH.... and Why iT happens at that time.....
So This .25 also only to been payed 1 time .... and not 2 times te same explanation.... (1st =1st)

Both answers to win must been inside before 20-09-2017
Goodluck to the ones that like This 

UPDATE listmaking                 notice a * is when the person put good enough explanation for other .25 BTC  (person with no * only play ATH or have to put little better )

OK You finally got me to play.  I'll take Oct 2, 2017.

Why? If all 3 major Chinese exchanges announcing shutdowns didn't slow the recovery from the September beartrap/correction/panic, nothing will. I figure it'll take about 2 weeks and I'll take the Monday.

Note the unconventional cAPITALIZATION!
I was thinking phone apps.

I would never keep more than a few hundreds $ in crypto on a smartphone. My favorite option is encrypted volumes and files on linux only.
Phones look like some security hazard walking.

Look like?

We have never seen as a race an information security hazard larger than the cellphone.

We just had two weekly red candles (historically significant), confidence has returned to the market after the China news, we're less than 10% away from resistance at 4400 (USD) I give 5 business days to recharge fiat in trading accounts and then new ATH.

please kindly put me down for 16/11/17 goossens, thanks mate

Wish I'd gone for a bit closer to the current date on the prize bounty, new ATH game. Oh well, I'm happy any way that the price has recovered so well after China news. I wonder how many people here got absolutely ruined shorting?

I don't think most people here are shorting, at least not big amounts compared to their stash.

I wonder how many people in general sold the dump and are now feeling very bad about themselves.

My coworkers want me to sell too. I have told them that my goal is to leave them fending for themselves while spending my days drinking mojitos on a beach, but they don't understand, they don't believe it's possible.

It's like the whole world has been gaslighted into believing that if an investment goes up you should immediately sell it, and if you don't then you're an idiot. Never mind the fact that the truly wealthy people of the world never exhibit such short-sighted behavior. It's no wonder that most people are poor.

Well good morning Bitcoinland.

Seems that the little FUD-induced beartrap is closing... $4055USD/$4945CAD (Bitcoinaverage) after hitting a bit of resistance at $4.1k.

All cryptos are also up with AltcoinCash currently at $469USD/$572CAD (Coinmarketcap).

Remember when China seemed so important?

I didn't expected this rebound back to $4000+ so fast  Shocked

Also, today at work some co-workers came to me asking that i should sell my coins asap because...they saw that article from JPMorgan.

I told them that's bullshit they should buy the dip with a smile on my face.

They where laughing so hard they had tears in there eyes...

Explaining why they where wrong is just talking to a wall...just pointless.

Those faces are priceless when we reach a new ATH again  Cheesy


 One of these ATH's I hope not to have co-workers anymore  Roll Eyes
(except my two gifted guys of course - you know who you are!)


1 Minute silence for the golden bitcoins dropped on the way down to be picked up by others

(having said that, a while back i sold and lost 0.5 i only have 1.2 now and 28 ltc)
Hold until 1 mill

I had weathered a big drop before, and kept my BTC, but lost interest in it for a couple of years (no mining, no posting here, etc.). Long time hodler so, but mostly invested in the stock market. When we passed 2000€ a few months ago I decided that the stock market wasn't good enough, sold all I could and more than doubled my BTC stash.

I wasn't entirely sure of my hodler resolve after that bold move, since BTC went from ATH to ATH, there was no test of it.

When it went down the other day, I can't say I was happy (for one I had no fiat to buy the dip), but dumping never even came up in my mind.

So now I'm more certain than ever, hodl !

My coworkers want me to sell too. I have told them that my goal is to leave them fending for themselves while spending my days drinking mojitos on a beach, but they don't understand, they don't believe it's possible.

I will take 2/10.  No real reason except I think we are just leaving a bear trap now and should resume mass buying and a general FOMO especially by new investors.  Should be a fun few weeks coming up.
