while btc is struggling on ethics to stay decentralized, eth has no shame going full data centers
seems to work lol

This gets confusing, I'm not FOMO at this point but more fear of losing BTC in the event this goes south quickly. I remember about 2 weeks ago ETH exceeded BTC's 24 hour volume then vanished to about 1/4 the volume. It was the same 3 exchanges with the majority, polo, bithumb, and coinone.
I think this pump is directly related to that buy. This might not dump for awhile longer but its anyone's guess when (if it does).
Would hate to miss out on this if its going over 1k and I'm deadly accurate at buying the top

Why is there no hype for ETH? It seems like it's just building quietly
yeah that is right. literary nobody is talking about it with 0 hype...
but i don't know why everywhere on the internet that i turn, such as forums and stuff i see some new accounts are created to talk about ETHEREUM! with some similar script. hmmm!

First world problems. I would have taken them had I known.

all impressive stuff, but how are people gonna get to all these riches when they're all locked up in poloniex? i've been waiting three months to get my limit over $2000. still nothing happening.

We all backed the wrong horse. How did this happen? Is this Roger Ver cashing out of BTC into ETH?
June 12, 2017, 04:28:27 AM
well eth is new tech with hype who can go bonker with only one killer dapp (if they ever release one for starters lol) has an iconic autistic genius, and is pretty scalable for the near future (dynamic block size based on traffic)
so there is that.
Also this kind of move is meant to push btc to get its shits straight sooner than later...

Is eth actually taking over bitcoin??
Seems like marketcaps will meet sooner than expected...somewhere in July probably.
Will be a shitstorm imo.
how many etc premined? 60 mio? but they still count for calculating its "market cap", right?
etc does not have a fixed limit.
fun thing is, I as a bitcoin bull, cannot comprehend what is good about eth. to me it is a scam. a successful scam. but I cannot wrap my head around it, nor can I let go precious bitcoin to buy this scam coin. and this is exactly what the average person thinks about bitcoin. so thank you eth for teaching me a lesson. and yes, eth fanboys, go ahead and profit. I am ok with others getting rich.
but I still cannot invest btc in eth.

No problem. Just keep hitting that money button. I'm starting to feel sick. 
You have a problem. You don't have bitcoins.
Are we having a rap-style beef?

I am starting to feel like in Las Vegas now 
Baby needs a new pair of keys.
What does that mean? Is it some sort of english joke or something?
It's a mashup between a classic line referencing gambling from an old movie and the cryptographic concept of key pairs.
(Edit: It appears the phrase may date back more than 100 years)
Agreed; or it could be someone wants another Lambo..

Apparently young black soldiers during the late stages of the First World War used craps lingo (also known as African Billiards at the time), and included in their patter "Baby needs shoes!"—and that at least some young white American soldiers understood the lingo well enough to record it accurately for a predominantly white audience.

Perhaps you aren't aware that people of low self-esteem are more like to experience schadenfreude. If you've done well by bitcoin, take pleasure in that rather than the misfortune of those who didn't listen to you. Otherwise, they still win.
Hm? The guy spent most of his time as I recall ridiculing Bitcoin and insulting everyone in sight like an autistic tourettes kid.
Yeah, he seems to be a troubled soul.

I am having a hard time doing that. Any time I pick up a coin or ICO and do some research about it all that I found out is rubbish behind it. Yet they still keep rising. It looks like a fucking gamble to me.
You do what I believe is called "Value Investing". Not so much the fundamentals of a coin, but the team or devs behind it, what they promise to do, and what the public thinks about them, or what you think the public thinks about them (you can't really tell.) You try to predict which one will rise. Get in the mind of the pump and dumpers, without being them. I mean, I don't participate in the troll box or other forums, but I read them all, or mostly.
In short, it is gambling. LOL. Sorry. My so called "equivalent" 50 BTC is now 70, but as you or someone else has pointed out, it is not yet realized, so ... I better trade some of these back to BTC soon.
Yes, it looks like value investing is worthless here. Probably that primalbase shit will be get a good pump because of the people behind it. I mean, none of them have any practical espertise in real state investments, they are all "ethereum specialists" but the name, the idea, the people sound good so maybe it is something stupid people will buy like crazy. I would never invest in anytthing like that as a real business, but maybe I can throw some spare FIAT into it and exit in the middle of the expected (?) pump for more BTC.
NOw there's that other ICO by Vinny Lingham, Civic... the idea is ok.... but the numbers? So they expect to get $33 million for 33% of the coins.... that means $100 million for a fucking simple "identity verification blockchain"? Something that could be done with just 1 million.... But we are gambling, not really investing in real business, so.... ok, maybe another little bit of change into it.... I am starting to feel like in Las Vegas now
I used to do modeling and simulation of military networks and was given a new MOSPF (Multicast Open Shortest Path First) protocol that was supposed to be superior to the network standard used at the time to create a model of and simulate against the standard model. I worked on these models for months and finally compared the two and found that the new protocol was far superior. I immediately invested in the company that owned the protocol figuring this was a great advance in networking. I invested when the stock was at $2. I cashed out when I wanted to close my Scottrade account at a few pennies. Fortunately I only invested $1k. It was also about the time of the dotcom bubble popping so there's that...
