Well, I might consider responding in detail to you, if you weren't engaged in selective, repetitive patronizing lecturing, and if you were willing to discuss your own investment strategies, as well.  But, yeah, many of us already realize that you , and your other lambie sock accounts, are not in this thread to actually share information and to engage in any kind of meaningful and interactive way.

Sometimes your financial situation, timeline, and risk tolerance will net you 7000 BFX tokens.

I suppose this means you'll be researching a good way to safely hodl your own bitcoin? Avoid the risk of leaving it all on exchanges, no? Or is your angaper risk tolerance just that elastic?

I talk to people in  terms of their apparent ability to absorb information.

I they seem to engage, then I will engage.  If they seem to glaze over, then I will change the topic.

I only give advice if people ask, and that tends to be pretty rare, and only after getting to know them pretty well.

People tend to want to give advice rather than take advice, yet sometimes, it is possible to get some back and forth going about any topic, including bitcoin related matters.







You are crazy if you think that many coins will survive to 2140.  We are probably already down 2 million coins in less than 10 years of bitcoin's existence, due to loss, death, etc.




I believe in lead by example, and over time, bitcoin is going to become more and more known and more and more adopted.. some people just take longer than others,... I am not about to attempt to persuade anyone who is not already inclined in such direction....  My thinking is that non-adopters will come to bitcoin in due time and in their time.




I agree that bitcoin has a lot of potential, yet at the same time, there is a lot of monied interest that may also engage in a variety of tactics (and even lose money) to attempt to keep bitcoin down.  So, how is it going to play out, and how long will it take to get to $10k or above... Difficult to know for sure.





Based on your previous posts and your previous bragging.. especially in your earliest post in this thread, I have my doubts about whether you are actually telling the truth, yet in the end, it really does not matter to me whether you are telling the truth or not.

I personally am not competing with anyone and I am only attempting to tailor my activity to my own financial situation and my risk tolerance, etc.

I think that ultimately each of needs to attempt to our best ability to tailor our practices to our financial situation, time line and risk tolerance.  And, if you can accomplish that, then you are successful, whether you make money or not, and hopefully be able to learn from mistakes to make better plans in the present in order to better prepare for the future.

Bitfinex is talking about possibly processing withdrawals manually, and delaying the reintroduction of leverage until after withdrawals and normal trading have been reintroduced. Doing manual withdrawals will be as slow as a snail, and they can halt them (and a bank run) at any time with a slippery excuse.

How is anybody going to know the answer to this question with any degree of certainty?

Anyhow, if we go above $800, there is about a 70% chance that such will occur less than 2 years from now.

Therefore there is about a 30% chance that going above $800 will take longer than years.

What about you?  What is your prediction? 

Not going to happen! ...

But... This will probably happen:




*Edit: I suspect that those 100k+ coins that disappeared are being moved on to SSD cards or on multiple phones and sold on the streets of China hand-to-hand like drug dealers would do... Cuz Hong Kong(Finex) is very close to China! ... And hackers are like 98% from China...

*Edit2: No one would suspect a thing... they would just see 2 people holding their phones and looking on their screens! Something normal..

'bout two weeks.

You should put it more in perspective for them... "Buy bitcoin or suffer!... Your money will be worthless!" or something like that... or at least break it to them in a diplomatic way.


Many of those 20.999.999 coins will be lost on their way home to 2140! ... I'm thinking that just 19.500.000 coins will survive... the most positive outcome I think about that.

And if you are convincing enough... your friends will convince other people as well for you, without bothering too much! ... Just try to create ripple effects in time...

*Edit: And when I talk of 10k ... I mean as in a bottom!

*Edit2:

There I did better than you ... Sold at 655 something like 55% - 60% of my total  ... When I saw that 5$ dip from 660$ ... and waited... and waited.. waited... etc... and a few hours later price dipped 1$ per 15-20 minutes... till it reached another 15-20$ ... And then I sold the rest when I saw that 50$ dip... but I actually sold before the 50$ dip, because my exchange reacts 2-3 minutes later than the Chinese exchange. So I can basically short with no problem, at a 5-10$ loss per coin.

after say the fall of the last exchange and the next silk roads auction
can we get a ETA estimated time of arrival on the next bubble  ?
about how long till we see positive 800 per coin and up  ? 

You mean scrambling to buy coin as fast as they can to exit that mofo?

shhh, you'll ruin it.

But this is all predicated on the chance that they get this rat's nest trading before the jackboots freeze their accounts and kick in the door... lol.

and how will demand be met if everyone is busy withdrawing coins out of bitfinex?

^Dunno. You think that buy wall @530 on BTC-e is real?

Not seeing the "Buy an archipelago and build a franchise of privatized gulags" option. Where is it?

Fact: Dignan, the picture's not doing it for me right now.

P.S: You turn off those KNC space heaters yet? Satisfied with the decentralized security governing your freedom of association and transfer of value these days?
Anyone else getting a feeling of foreboding, a sense of impending doom?


(Imagine a numbers-matching smoldering pile of US dollars?)

new poll

the day grows nearer, BFX/BTC trading to go live SOON^TM

what will (or would) you do with your BFX tokens?

A boatload of value just got transferred to the nice gentlemen running Bitcoin's premiere, most secure exchange: Bitfinex.
In return, the gentlemen are giving you some valuable tokens.
Makes me feel good inside

You know what Adam, I kinda agree. Not that bitcoin can't break, but that we'll fix it as it happens.

This is my own personal separation of off what bitcoin means vs what "blockchain" means.

Blockchain is the means to an end, but bitcoin is the idea of freedom of association and transfer of value that once envisioned, cannot be overcome.

EGG-xactly!

Your crypto money is only as secure as whatever the current state of the art cryptography is capable of.

How can elliptic curve possibly be as secure as shipping paper bills on pallets? Transparency be damned!

If you get blocked by the shitty wall street journal, just Google the following "U.S. Sent Cash to Iran as Americans Were Freed" -no body bothers to do their own work any more , the media has become the best echo chamber ever!

Some egghead is gonna crack this thing eventually. Who wants to become a systemic risk? Spread it out like butter on a burn. That's what I say.
