What the hell is going on with the BTC again? Just dipped below 2600 ...?

Glad you like it 

Amidst tons of doubtful bearsh*t, here's a grain of truth from our c*ckroach. I wouldn't use the phrase "fake news" for that anyway, since it's not news but fact/opinion.

Really? No.

But what do you say ?, what gives value to bitcoin is its usability, people buy as an investment and barely know how it works, you think they are going to put to mine? LOL. If bitcoin did not have core 4 and 5 dollar commissions many more stores would use it, more value, more people, more stores, the exponential price. But the core company is not interested

A level playing field if you first purchase an ASIC from Jihan Wu, which allows Jihan Wu to build 10 ASIC of his own for each ASIC you buy from him?  This is fake news.

Sounds Good 
Let see to 3th of August

Have no idea what you're babbling about brother ... bitcoin's a level playing field for anybody who wants to run and smart enough to hide, they need to be quick or dead ... and anybody who wants to hunt needs to have a sharp eye or they go hungry. Math is the final arbiter for honesty in cryptography.

... and kind of sad to see a useful idiot for the central bank gold holdings pumping in a bitcoin forum. You seem really, really, lost.

Yeah, but this was before I'd seen about the fork in Bitcoin. Wishful thinking with tin foil hat would be that the synchrony of the fork and the LedgerX are a conspiracy to create one last buying opportunity. Feet on the ground thinking would be that we're heading DOWN

LedgerX has 11 million usd in collateral.  

also Ethereum hacked 4th time this month ~8 million usd. can't be bothered to link cos who cares at this stage

Sounds huge!

Roach, you went from the biggest bitcoin shil to the biggest troll.
It's really obvious you shorted, hope it wasn't on margin. 

As opposed to the other useful idiots who hype blockchains where every transaction is traced and monitored - the ultimate Orwellian police state dream - while also helping in the banker's goal to eradicate cash from society so they can then control the remaining digital infrastructure and turn everyone into a slave instead of people just using gold and silver to defeat them?  Did you mean those other useful idiots?

I figured we'd all enjoy an updated version of Bitcoin's development visualization. Dramatic music for effect. https://youtu.be/kyi8ac4jrOs
-actually, the music is frightful

... looks like the hard-fork-now fail army are back out on the intertubes doing the FUDster rounds again.

Everytime they show up with latest hard-fork-now FUD price dumps. They probably don't realise they are tools (useful idiots) of the bankster players.

you must really really love us a lot to spend so much time, energy & effort trying to save us all from our own stupidity & ignorance 24/7.

none of my parents, siblings or mates have ever shown such enduring consideration.

will you adopt me?

#baggage!

There's no reason for any common man off the street to support bitcoin unless he can mine it himself.  Supporting bitcoin at this juncture simply means helping Jihan Wu and a handful of other monopolies become richer.  Bitcoin would likely have already died if it wasn't for altcoins that could be mined then converted to BTC, otherwise the ecosystem would be entirely walled off.

I can't ever see Bitcoin switching to proof of stake, even if the cryptography mathematicians do find or have found a workable solution

If everyone mined that would help de-centralise the network, however there is no PoW change that fixes the current one's problems.
GPU's, different algorithms, they all simply kick the centralisation problems a few months down the road. We need something new, but until that comes we are stuck with what we've got.

Cognitive dissonance can do that to a guy when reality starts to poke it's ugly head through the fog of self-delusion.

You "hard-fork now" guys have dug such a deep hole for yourselves using lies and ego butt-hurt and then back-filled it with sloppy FUD, propaganda, bad ideas and worse programming. There's basically no coming back without major crow-eating humble pie and general all around ugliness.

No-one is against 'scaling' bitcoin. No-one is actually against a safe, timely hard-forking and very few are actually against bigger blocks. Your biggest problem really boils down to being butt-hurt about no-one listening to you so you kicked up a stink about things not happening on your timetable. Transaction capacity increases will be achieved in a myriad of ways. Sometimes in ways you haven't thought about and 'don't feel good about' and other times in ways you'll love ... but in the end no-one really cares about how you "feel" about a technical solution to bitcoin capacity increases.

Several 'core' BIP proposals included HF yearly block increases, even a 20% increase per year and a 2MB, 4MB, 8MB block increase ... either of which would have been in place by now and delivering bigger blocks than your recent pathetic 2MB now! current obsession, without all the governance and control shenannigans, stalling and mud-slinging at good people. The bitcoin market place for technical ideas can be brutal but it's time you built a bridge and got over yourselves.

No-one has yet proposed the solution to the problem of long-term evolution for transitioning from block rewards to a fees regime for incentivising network security. Not long after that happens the hard fork will get scheduled and then activated a year later.
