With Consensus reached wouldn't it be time we get above the $500 mark this week?


I guess it depends on what you mean by "consensus."



I was talking about this consensus. Maybe i don't read enough but isn't this the thing that gets everything back on track into 1 camp again?

Well, if you feel that a bunch of pool owners meeting behind closed doors with Core reps & signing a stump speech document makes for consensus, I guess it's moon time Smiley
Edit:
Please read the thing that was signed, and examine each item on the list.
Even if we construe this as a legally binding document, what, other than "[limit won't be more than] 4MB," did Core commit to? What did the miners?

The title is slightly misleading talking about miners, but the article is clear enough - developers and pools representing a majority of miners have agreed a roadmap. They've got consensus in as much as they've agreed the roadmap. But it's not until that roadmap is complete, and miners* can be seen to clearly support a hard-fork that consensus in the Bitcoin-protocol sense occurs.

* and nodes? I used to be a miner, long ago, but never really paid much attention to nodes.

BTC price is going strong still despite of the sell orders that was triggered when it hit the $450 mark. Lets all hope that there'll be a new floor brought to us by the 'consensus'.

Can't we make a thread called "let everyone one fight over bitcoins issues and developments" and let this one for TA and graphs about speculation?  Sad

You go first. Or was that it?  Huh

Oh I'm no good at it. I'm not an excellent trader and I suck at TA! That's why I need this thread :-/

Just a bit tired of the debates on this thread, I learn some things so it's cool but most of the time I don't understand shit...

I don't remember any TA and graphs in this thread. All I remember is either rocket pictures with MOOOON  written on them, or pictures of sinking ships with BITCOIN IS DEAD written on them.

Well from time to time some TA is explained here ^^

It's like a big trollbox, but with most* of the absolutely pointless noise/spam/brainfarts filtered out, except it is played out on a slower scale.

Similar to a trollbox, you have to sort the wheat from the chaff, and there is a shitload of chaff.



Also, thread is for the lulz.

(though, those are also rare since BJA and most of the other entertaining trolls sold their accounts to imposters)

we don't bet high, since china is the biggest base of bitcoin mining/trading.
China is the biggest base for many other things. It is quite natural to be the biggest base for bitcoin mining/trading as well.

I agree, but my concern is with their closed and ultra-controlling political system. since they're not a democracy, it's not good news for bitcoin that so much of it's structure is in the hands of a totalitarian regime... no?

Don't let yourself be brainwashed by US propaganda machine. China is more democratic than US!

In China political class is named "The Communist Party". If you want to make political career you have to be part of the communist party. They have 4 political wings competing for country's top leadership. In US political class is named "The Establishment". If you want to make political career you have to be part of the political establishment. They have only 2 political wings competing for country's top leadership. It is obvious in which of those countries you have de facto political monopoly and totalitarian regime.


USA/PRC is just the two sides of the same coin, really.
