lose: unfind ... loose: untight


Australian TV last night. How odd to see this. I wonder when if and when it'll become the standard thing to throw in there.


Gee, they're not showing altcoins. I wonder why?  Roll Eyes

Slowly but surely Bitcoin is thrusting itself into the mainstream worldwide.

Geeks may quibble about altcoins, scalability, development politics etc. Meanwhile the masses are just beginning to learn about crypto and they know it as Bitcoin.

At least Ethereum must be added, in my opinion.

Ethereum is bitcoin number two right now.

Until Ethereum declares a known emission schedule, it is useless as a commodity, currency, or any other asset class.

This is fresh off the press. That's a lengthy list of signees but some conspicuous names are missing.

Segwit followed by a 2mb hard fork six months later. Will Core toss their cookies or join in the fun?

I'm going to laugh my ass off when someday ETC catches up to and surpasses ETH. Lol. Continuing to prove how hard forks can go wrong.

How is it 'going wrong', when each side gets exactly what they bargained for?

this is crazy territory. play at your own risk, and don't be surprised when it snaps back violently.

Bitcoin FTW!
And it is also harder to move money to Kraken. Ive tried several times to no avail sadly, maybe when it becomes easier to move funds to em I'll check it out.

Are you in USD? The Kraken USD market is traditionally a strange and stunted little thing. All the action is in EUR and you can SEPA there very rapidly if you're not in a third world country like the US.
Yep. Best we've got is Finex, which i use every now and then. I mostly hold anyways so I don't sell much.. Hopefully it'll become easier to access exchanges overall in the future, would be a lot more convenient for me.

also, how the fuck is stamp so far ahead of the others?

That's really strange, bearstamp's at $2235 and bitfinex is at $2211. Since when was bearstamp's price higher than bitfinex's?

And kraken is lagging behind at 2172$ :/

Please come buy coins here! They're as shiny as the others and a bit less expensive! :3

Haha look at the Kraken chart now! And again my sell order did not execute. Maybe their API is fucked up. Or it's that Dark Order thingy that they're doing?


NO, the dark pool does not show on the order book nor the public price. This is just totally erratic, negligent or premeditated behaviour.

5-19-17.  Sell at 1890 and buy in a pullback to 1775. I lost about 2k in position on that. How can a guy ever make money besides hodl paying for advice like that.

dumping on bad news and buying back. very reliable.

Virginia tobacco and corduroy pants. We really are the new wealthy elite. Smiley

That's a giant corduroy memory foam beanbag. I sit there like a lonely turd at sunset all day casting aspersions across the globe.

We do what we can. We're the heroes the world needs.

Again, that description you are giving is of stop-loss or stop-loss triggered limit orders. Nothing to do with that I am talking about.

When you have a limit order on the order book, ie: an ask at 1995€ for 1BTC. There is no way price should rise higher than 1995€ without honoring your sell order at 1995€ limit. No, the price can't reach 2082€ if I have sell orders already on the book (since several days before) for much less than that price.

Otherwise the order book would have no reason to exist and the exchange would just pair orders however they feel like.... ie: matching orders with their way higer ones ignoring more favourable ones for the buyer. That's nonsense.

Again, if you are describing how stop loss limit orders behave, yes, that's correct, but that's not the case here, otherwise it would be a non issue.


Ahhh shit sorry my bad- doing several things at once here and obviously did not read your posts properly when scrolling through..  nor look at the kraken charts..   got the wrong end of the stick... thought you were buying and hadn't seen the Kraken chart... yeah that is.... quite odd.


(hmmmm let us know what Kraken say..)
