Wow... that's whole lot of price suppression going on.

Do you guys think that they will be able to keep it up until after the U.S. pres election is over? Because clearly that's the goal for now.

One thing's for sure, sometime between now and the end of the year we're gonna see a price explosion.

Yes... maybe ongoing discussion of hardforking efforts has better reception in other forums?

I think that some of the hardforking discussion is a bit looney, but it is a current dynamic that is likely to continue to have various rippling effects on the "bitcoin community"  (I put "bitcoin community" in quotes, because it is a bit of a dilemma how "bitcoin community" should be defined).


Which is a shame... not only are alt coins a division of the community but now even btc itself is divided with small vs large blockers. HF's are just going to fuck everyone, one of the chains will eventually fail and you will have to guess which one is worth keeping your money on... why deal with the uncertainty, don't fork BTC you fucks

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"


Bet we could swap that pie chart right around if BitcoinUnlimited was the only option available for download on:

bitcoin.org
r/bitcoin
bitcointalk.org

And core was available on bitcoincore.org

Just goes to show how Bitcoin is already centrally controlled. Domain names mean more than hashrate...  

JJG and his ilk blindly cheer while their more cunning cousins place native BTC in a chokehold in order to drive transactions off-chain and make Blockstream shareholders rich.

Guess we'll see what happens, cowardly chinese miners won't be doing squat until the price takes a swan dive.


Yeah, right... "JJG and his ilk."  

I am not part of any group-think, except to the extent to which I post in response to a lot of troll/shill misinformation that frequently attempts to mislead and spread FUD about the supposed broken status of BTC.

So, yeah, therefore, I seem to be posting a lot on a particular theme.

Last fall, I did not really have any kind of clue regarding there being any kind of "scaling issue," but then starting around the time of XT and soon thereafter with considerable extent of FUCD spreading about XT and then Classic etc, there seem to be a lot of misinformation circulating in these various bitcoin spaces.

After a while, I took a position because I saw the extent of the ongoing nonsensical making up of issues in order to attempt to describe bitcoin as broken.  Some of this whole dynamic is strange because the FUCD doom and gloom spreading seemed to intensify in late 2015 while BTC prices were in the $200s... and in spite of ongoing propaganda about bitcoin being broken, BTC prices shot up to $500, and then came back down for a while (and then continued bullshit propaganda spreading while we floated between largely $360 and $460), and then another shoot up to nearly $800... while outcry continues about bitcoin being broken.

Seems that bitcoin may be gearing up for another upwards price movement, in spite of a fairly small segment of "bitcoin's community" continuing to vociferously spread misinformation about bitcoin being broken and some supposed problems that need "hardfork" solutions that would supposedly "fix" the problems.  In fact, many folks realize that hardforking is not such a great idea, and likely puts bitcoin in a much more precarious position (which would be great for traditional banking institutions and governments).

So, what I am saying is not some kind of core propaganda bullshit, but it remains logically a variety of thoughtful responses to the frequent nonsensical postings that we see regarding supposed needs for hardforking and needs for a blocksize increase and needs to fix supposed non-existing bitcoin "problems."


So, yeah Lambie, and your various socks, I am responding to your various nonsense, even though it is possible that no response is necessary and a large number of folks already see the facts and see through your baloney and misinformation.

Adam hasn't posted in a week and a half. That's a long time for him.

I  hope he's OK.

Why the Needham Bitcoin Price Prediction Got a 29% Bump to $848

$2300 by 2020? guess that's possible. comes a time when it needs to stop acting like a low market cap stock and start revving its engines. considering how opaque most of the exchanges are I dunno if they can be depended on to figure out price discovery.

Are you sure that you are not a paid shill troll? 

OK, let us game this out. What exactly do you propose zimmah is shilling for, and who exactly do you propose is paying zimmah for this shilling?


My posts speak for themselves, but I would suggest that you, jbreher, are engaging in whiteknighting.... not the first time.

You are assuming no progress is being made, and nothing is being done, and there is some kind of urgency in doing something. 

Progress may or may not be underway. Results have not been forthcoming. The time for urgency was approximately one year ago, when persistently full blocks were imminent but not yet a reality. Core has utterly failed in addressing the problem before it became economically significant.


Where's the problem exactly, again? 

I had three transactions this week, and one transaction took about two hours (1st confirmation took about 67 minutes), and the other two took less than an hour (actually 7 minutes and 17 minutes to confirm, then a couple more blocks, I had access to the coins, with three confirmations).

There is no major problem here... just have to gear expectations in accordance with performance.

Your various assumptions are without merit.

You are wrong.

Yes, we disagree, again.

Back up above $600 then after a mini dump. Such a shame for all the bears predicting low 500's.
Butt hurt much?
