0.12 (to be released tomorrow I think - still one can build from source right now) can be tuned in terms of mempool size to avoid problems.


For non-technical guys, this means Bitcoin becomes much more hardened against possible issues that arise from spam/stress situations, despite "blocks are full".

I'm going to speculate that they are now starting to work in reverse. At some point a good nerd rage war is going to drag in other nerd and geeks who would not have considered getting involved in bitcoin but can't resist a juicy intellectual stoush, passive-aggressiveness, handbag throwing, it's got it all They are over-egging the FUD pudding.

Any publicity is good publicity is the oxygen bitcoin thrives on ... drug markets, ransomware, volatility, central-bank bitching, infighting, etc, etc haven't stopped the crazy train yet.

That's why it's the last.

1) I still don't understand why you want prices to stay the same in this equation (and of course as lambie pointed out, the amount of money doesn't decrease, the rate of new money created slows down).  
2)why would you need to burn the btc?  I think you need to read about LN some more (actually so do I about the technical details, but I think I have most of the big picture down).  You are trading "spending rights" for actual bitcoins that are locked in a special transaction.  If you start of with 10 btc, after the payment channel closes, there will still be 10 btc.  During the use of the channel, there is only ever 10 btc worth being exchanged.  How on earth does this  resemble fractional reserve banking?

You're too smart for them; bought @ $1200, like a boss

These media propaganda stunts (and other arguable creative efforts of spreading BTC FUD) seem to becoming less and less effective... because overall the word is getting out regarding bitcoin's underlying value... even though you are likely correct that there are going to be continuous attempts at such FUD spreading, and likely for years to come (whether prices are being kept below $500 or below $10K)

That one deserves a big lol  

Sometimes the last cut is the deepest.

I think Marcus is on to something.

I'm going back to saying you're lambie.

... don't have too, the big block camp are doing an admirable job of warning everybody about the coming higher fees, (their FUD has been remarkably effective ) ... and so they should to, after mis-informing them for years that bitcoin would be "free" to use.

The overall sentiment of your various posts seems to imply that there is some other better investment out there, rather than bitcoin, because in your framing, the various possible prospects for bitcoin are so dismal, no matter how it plays out.

Accordingly, why can't you come up with a decent formula in order to expedite your exiting of the bitcoin space to place (or diversify) your supposed bitcoin holdings in these so far non-specified "better" investments?

Accordingly, cashing out 10 BTC per week or some other more quick exit may be better for everyone, however many weeks that may take.   






Maybe you are correct?  That is called growing pains.  While BTC's market cap remains relatively small, and while there are only a limited number of exchanges that lead BTC's price movement, it does not take a whole hell-a-va lot of capital to push prices up, down or to hold them steady within a range (even if such manipulations are occurring at a bitcoin loss, such manipulations can be very profitable for stake holders of other institutional financial and even governmental entities who would like to keep bitcoin as small as they reasonable can accomplish for as long as they can reasonably accomplish).



Yeah, right.  Since you have supposedly been in bitcoin for so long (since 2011), you should have a little better abilities to zoom out a little bit and to understand the context a little better.  But instead, you continuously frame this artificial frame to suggest a decline in bitcoin, such as going from $1150 to $502 to whatever other selective lower number you select, which is nearly full bullshit due to its selectivity and lack of meaningful context.



Your error in your thinking is that you currently, again, seem to be talking your book, even though you are nearly continuously selectively presenting negative aspects of bitcoin in a naysayer manner (and no matter what you are going to find reasons to make up things and to selectively complain about bitcoin) and out of this world levels of speculation, rather than providing some more accurate and balanced analysis based on meaningful factors.. rather than fear mongering with speculation that is a hella-va-lot less likely.

Lol @ that "I'a a former Green Beret"  link, didn't click it at first, fully expecting
(navy seal copypasta)
...but no, it's clickbait for the pathologically paranoid, no joke



Why can't they just leave our bitcoins alone?

P.S. Google image search "crying," get a bunch of these: http://lookslikegooddesign.com/crying-children-jill-greenberg/
Now, this is a Canadian studio photographer, pics are all high-def, multi-source-lit studio shots.
Jill, what did you tell/do to those kids to make them break down like that?

so what? the next 24 hours / 2 weeks^TM are critical?

sideways movement for a few more months, probably.

attacks on bitcoin, in a bitcoin forum, very suspicious user accounts.

defending one self against accusations, defensive as its true?

are these actions that move markets, unable to determine.

You know I actually re read the thread looking for your picture? I was like "what? Never saw this one did I?" ^^

I am the only person on this entire forum where my handle is my actual name. It is trivial to verify that I am not a sockpuppet or an impostor.  Yes, I talk my book. Who doesn't? I make my trading positions known more often than I think is wise.  In short, accusing me of not being me just makes you look foolish.

Thanks for the link. I think that is a very interesting article and I agree that a Rough Consensus attack may be ongoing, as I have said many times. 

nice price right now, im glad to see that it is staying, thankfully the price is not dropping and im not losing money

That's very gentleman.

Oh, another moon post. Missed this ^^
