Funny stuff bro. Thanx for merit.
Not a money grab is it? Not that I blame you, if it is. Good luck. Respect.

You know what kills me is I vote right,left and middle.

I do not like corruption  and fuck them when they get caught.
LEFT OR RIGHT.

I wish we could have a TV show like surviver.

Just corrupt politicians.

The list is endless on both sides.

 

Now my opinions  do not mean much at all.

But I think ognasty has unrealized cap gains and does not want Harris to tax him bigly.


I have some rich friends that think Trump is a thief that belongs in JAIL but they will vote for him as they have over 25 million in long term cap gains that are not realized which could be taxed by Harris.

I think this is a big reason Trump gets supported

Hey bro, are you trying to trigger me into posting a comment on all the absolute nonsense this demented moron believes about eating the dogs and cats

I gotta say anyone on this thread, (and I don't care what your ideology is) whoever still believes this complete nutcase should be handed the job of the most powerful person on this planet with nuclear keys and all, is not thinking straight. Then again, all his base voters have the intelligence of a walnut, so no surprise there.
For fucks sake bros, get rid of this crook. You can elect your person of choice in 2028 . I'm not sure what the fuck the republican party was thinking when they let this complete moron dictator wannabe take over their party. Oh yeah, that's right, they didn't want to be offed, in case he does get elected. Case in point, Lindsey Graham, wont get into details. Google it and do your own research.
I remember back in the day I could have intelligent discussions with friends on the other side of the aisle. Not now. It's really sad.

Trump in his speech today calling for Nancy Pelosi to be prosecuted for insider trading is something I didn’t expect to see. He really is going all in. I can’t imagine Nancy, the greatest investor of all time, is happy about this development.

Is Trump going to finally put an end to insider trading by politicians while pumping Bitcoin to the moon?

Almost all devices are behind some sort of firewall and will never let UDP packets come in to a service like that.

Obviously it was the latter, a bug in cups-browsed:

Insanely overhyped, but now everybody knows the guy and possibly he might get a good hire.

Note: the El Reg article in my original post above has been updated meanwhile.

[Edited to add]: Sheesh, security seems now an influencer business, what a shit show. Thank you satoshi for freeing me from needing this shit for a living. This Margaritelli guy is a fucking twat.

was supposed to happen at 8pm UTC has linux bombed world wide or what?

I'll leave this here uncommented as it is yet not clear if it is actually a desastrous linux RCE bug affecting every single linux machine out there or simply a run-of-the-mill f*ckup in cups-browsed:


In any case, linux sysadmins should keep their pagers charged and online (jokes about balls getting blown off accidentally intentionally skipped).

My bet right now is that the guy is hyping his findings up much, but you never know.

Their loss.

An interesting sort field would be to add when last posted in WO. 

The list is long, yet there are still a number of notable regular WO posting members absent from the list.

I cannot recall exactly how to get to the list of most posts in a thread, so then that would give the names by number of posts in the thread and then there could be a way to pick out notable members but then also to show when last active in this particular.. so then maybe anyone who has been active in the past 6 months would not be considered "missing in action" 

There are some notable forum members, yet they might not have had posted very much in this thread... such as Loaded who ended up being the guy who got caught with 50,000-ish silkroad coins.. I am not sure if he ended up getting much jail time, since he seemed to have had been pretty cooperative once caught, and in some sense his only crime might have had been that he had a lot of coins, since not even silkroad was trying to get him for exploiting one of their software bugs...and yeah of course, other notables who might have ended up with some interesting story (forum related or sometimes not forum related) that may or may not have had been shared in the WO thread.


Could be fair point.

It might feel a wee little bit like 2007, yet at the same time, those of us who have bought into bitcoin (and have been studying bitcoin) know that bitcoin was not around in 2007, yet at the same time, bitcoin seems to be relevant to the whole overall question of macro-market dynamics - even though bitcoin seems so small in comparison, even though bitcoin is BIG at the same time, with right around a $1.2 million market cap.. and surely there can some bitcoin adjacent claims in the shitcoin space in which money flows in and out of various shitcoins in convoluted ways that affect bitcoin positively and negatively and in terms of providing additional liquidity too.. not that I am pumping shitcoins or even consider shitcoins to be anything but tail effects.. but not necessarily insignificant for liquitity to also exist in the shitcoin space and shitcoin-adjacent projects...

Some money that flows in and out of shitcoins come through bitcoin, yet other times the money that goes in and out of shitcoins might have some of their own independent on and off-ramps.  Sometimes not easy to keep track including if there are BIGGER players who have been increasingly heavier into the bitcoin space, and there can be questions regarding how much they are able to move bitcoin (or other value) around in terms of making sure that they do not fuck up their spot ETF custody and/or the various other BTC-related financial instruments that they might attempt to use to move the BTC price in one direction or another while many of them want to make money, they likely don't want to make money in such a way that ends up causing aspects of their involvement to explode upon them in the event that they might end up on wrong sides of trades involving sudden moves in bitcoin prices, and if they might have had been attempting for months to keep BTC prices down, they might come to some realizations that they might have to let it run to the upside for a while before resuming any of the downity (or flat) manipulations that they had been involved in.

I am not conceding that large traditional finance twats are successful in their attempts to tame bitcoin, even though it seems likely that they are engaged in efforts to profit from bitcoin, which in some sense likely involves their pushing BTC prices in both directions, and they likely already realize that they can ONLY push it so much in either direction without potentially causing damage to their lil selfies.


What do you do these days to prepare for potential downities d_eddie?

Are you keeping some dry powder on the side?

Most guys here know what I do, which is sell on the way up and buy on the way down, which I have been doing since about mid-to-late 2015, and I am not going to concede that a lot of what I do is merely psychological, because there surely is a financial component, even though the amounts sold are likely in the less than 5% for every doubling of the price (even though I have historically been allowed around 10% sales for ever doubling, I nearly never reach anything close to my own authorization levels, even when it seems that each year I do end up shaving off some of the BTC and actually spending that money, whether lambos, hookers and/or blow or sometimes various other investments. Even in 2022 I did end up having some BTC sales that ended up coming off the table.. yet I recall adding some more money too.. so maybe in the end, the whole in and/or out might have had played out as a wash in 2022 (for me)?

I don't really know how I do my numbers since roughly my dry powder is still ONLY around 2% the size of my total bitcoin holdings...even though my current buy orders do go all the way down to $26.5k-ish... so many of us are likely stacked in favor of up, yet we still might want to have systems in place in order to buy BTC on the way down, if it does end up going down.
