The blocks are full again. I have been waiting a hell of a long time for a single confirmation. It took an hour to find one block, then the next few blocks afterwards were all full so my transaction's still in limbo. Until somebody fixes this I don't think the price will moon.



There are those who would say this to you:

Pay up or use PayPal.

Blocks full with no stress test seem only good to me, I don't like the price movement lately. That's a concern.
Maybe the marrket knows more than you and understands that full blocks are the opposite of good.

Evidently a system that pisses off its users is b'locks.

Extra capacity is required asap.

I get confirmations up the arse whenever the blockchain permits me to interact with it. I guess I'm some kind of special snowflake but I always knew that anyway.

The $7/tx subsidy only illustrates how ridiculous the coffees-on-the-blockchain idea is, and how critical it is that BTC become high-powered money rather than yet another retail payment rail.

Those four tps are the most precious rare things in existence.  The ability to store and/or transfer value quickly, securely, and without permission is unprecedented.  A gigawatt is a small price to pay for the provision of such a modern miracle.

It's adorable you think Honey Badger cares about ignorant Gavinista fuckwit ramblings and desires for a contentious hard fork and governance coup.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
the price fell a little bit and it is stable right now once again, when there will be more movements? i need some action

it's bleeding. There is tension in the market. We could be at the edge of the next bear cycle if this bullrun really dies of like that.


Well, considering the past couple of weeks in light of the past couple of months.   

About two weeks ago, we had a considerable drop in BTC price in light of the piling on of FUD surrounding the Mike Hearn article (and other simultaneous exaggerated FUD) that caused a precipitous drop to $352.  Thereafter, I had considered that a fairly decent volume pump passed $410 would bring us into a kind of safe-zone regarding whether we would go below $352 again. 

The pump over $420 from a bit over a week ago did not end up being as long-lasting as I had considered it to be, and so, yep, we came back down to the upper $300s, and we experienced some half-assed further attempts to bring BTC prices below $360, or lower if possible, yet it remains unclear if bears were throwing all of their ammunition or if they may be running out of coins to dump? 

Anyhow, I would not put it passed the bears to be able to come up with some more coins for dumping; however, it is beginning to appear that we are floating in a price territory (mostly $374 to $379) long enough (a couple of days) in order that we could witness another attempt at a break out within the next two days (ending the weekend and maybe awaiting some Monday financial news - stocks were up on Friday, but doesn't mean such uptrend will continue).

 I am fairly certain that we are going to see some price action within the next couple of days.. To me the first bounce by 5% or so could go either way.. almost a toss, and I am thinking that the next bounce of at least 10% from our current price territory, is more favorably on the upside... I will give it a 57% chance for upside and 43% chance for down... but, like everyone who is not a whale, I am formulating my best guestimation.

Quote from: liquidiser
I had no choice of the fee I paid because I withdrew from an exchange that doesn't let you control the fee. Now I have been waiting almost two hours for the first confirmation, and the last six blocks were all full. I would happily pay a higher fee if I could, but most exchanges don't let you choose your fee.


Bitcoin is broken, sell all you have.

Yeap, it's not a stress test now, it's just stress. Feels good man. Pay up suckas, and grok my ethos. When we get to $7 per tx we're golden, and that's a sure thing because no competition.

That percentage of full blocks on ChartBuddy is accurate today, I'd say 97% full is right.

Shhhh, friend.

Sounds like you don't like the smell of sweet, sweet success and rapidly increasing competitive advantage.

Bitcoin is high powered Central Bank reserve monies. Poors may use dog-coin.

There's really only two outcomes without a higher or removed max block size: stagnation or network congestion failure. 

Like you don't need a gun to kill an ant, you don't need bitcoin to buy your damned coffee. Bitcoin is for gentlemen's transactions. Capisc?

Don't tell me what I need. It's that kind of arrogance that is going to make Bitcoin an asterisk in the history of cryptocurrencies. Businesses that dictate to their customers what they should want are gonna have a bad time.

This map reminds me of: http://nerdapproved.com/misc-weirdness/map-reveals-that-only-the-u-s-europe-japan-care-about-zombies/

But then again, that's a close resemblence of the internet activity map, which overlaps pretty much most internet activity, including bitcoin nodes Tongue

That's spooky, man.  Embarrassed

>“Zombies” in their Google searches.
Because English word?


zombie:  About 167,000,000 results (0.45 seconds)
зoмби:   About 14,600,000 results (0.43 seconds)
AFAIK, Bitcoin nodes aren't susceptible to this sort of thing, because Bitcoin is a WW¢ (world wide currency!!!1)

If you're suggesting what I think you're suggesting (and I think you are), that the Oxford Internet Institute is somehow involved in the conspiracy to cover-up the swelling zombie populations in places like South America, Africa and Asia, then I agree.

But what does Blockstream have to gain from all of this?

Blockstream absorbs Light and Hedons & excretes Darkness and Dolors. No point in anthropomorphizing it with phrases like "have to gain."
Just basic digestion of nice things and excretion of Hell on Earth, Blockstream simply is.
