The shills are losing the battle  Smiley

Their arguments are repetitive, obvious, and each time they post they get smashed out of the park by our resident shill-busters. Keep up the good work guys. I usually add ~2 shills/day to ignore, on average. I wonder how much they are getting paid for their sad effort.. Only the most dull-minded could read their posts and see anything but increasingly desperate attempts to derail the inevitable.

And no again. Fiat has this thing called *cash*. We store it in special wallets called "pockets," which require fuckall to operate.

Yea, and the average person in today's society has about enough cash on hand as might feed him three meals a day in a restaurant - for maybe three days. Whatever cash is on hand, it'll be about gone before people are scrambling for potable water.

Please. You guys can't figure out how to increase the blocksize, and you're gonna whip up repeater network? I remember you were planning to send up a bitcoin comsat, how's that project goin' Cheesy

Whatevs. When the chips have been down (twice, by my recollection), the community has rallied to collective action to resolve the impending doom before a handful of hours had passed.

*Of course, you've cleverly redacted the most important part, which I stuck back in & emboldened so's you can read it again

What's that? Your 9 survival-quantity person-months of water, probably sufficient ammo, and single firearm? Tryin' ta scare me? Is that your point? I ain't skeered.

if the lights go out quickly and the power stops working fiat cash is going to be in high demand ... less than 10% of all monetary reserves are in cash form, and it will be the most recognisable in the short term.

if the lights go out quickly and the power stops working...
- you can accept fiat if'n you want
- fiat is *way* down on the list of what I'll accept, unless it be pre-64 US coinage (i.e. junk silver). Other preferred forms of currency: Food, ammo, fuel, anything else tangible.

Long term in a post-apocalyptic scenario bitcoin as a highly distributed network is well-placed

Better placed than the traditional banking system. That was my point.

Technically, *unlimited*.
You must also realize that I don't buy groceries with SWIFT. Few people do.
I use cash or CC, of which Visa is but one. Visa has a peak capacity of around 56,000tps.

That's roughly 19,000 times more than Bitcoin Smiley

Bitcoin wasn't meant for buying groceries. That it was based on Bit Gold gives a hint of its purpose. This mediocratization of the system to facilitate the transaction of individual corn nuts will end badly.

Going to 6 tps from 3, and 12 tps from there, until 2019 at the earliest, is nothing like trying to replicate a visa or swift. This all or nothing crap is tiresome, on both sides.

I really wish those 200k gox coins would drop before we get resolution on block sizes followed with the halving. That would be the perfect storm.

Yea but thats going to hit mainstream news on the ATH then even more of a rush towards bitcoin.

Disagree, ideally, they would be returned to their owners at the lowest price possible, rewarding those who decide against dumping immediately. The possibility of 6 figures of coins being dumped is bearish, even in a bull market.

The global economic news is currently so bad, I'm expecting to look out the window and see empty grocery store shelves and shootings in the street any second.  I estimate each round of gunfire will be worth a 1% BTC increase.

Asia’s richest man Li Ka-shing has boosted his investment in bitcoin .....

Yeah, in may of 2014. Bitpay has since laid off a good chunk of their employees? (that isn't supposed to happen at startups before ipo or sale)

Monkey likes BTC for the next 5 days at least.



Monkey also liked XMR and now has a bad back from carrying around bags and bags of that shite...

I'm starting to think Aminorex is messing with our minds.

I think he's got an actual monkey, pointing aimlessly at the screen while Aminorex is writing down whatever it's pointing at.

Monkey prefers not to elucidate. Monkey prefers to shit in his hand and throw it at naive observers.

Get to buy back all my bitcoins


You will have to buy back at a higher price, maybe?


I tend to just leave what I sold in fiat... but I am only trading with a small fraction of my BTC holdings

if market runs me over, i'm going on vacation.

...

for like 3 months!

The more that you trade BTC, the more likely that you will miss a few calls... but if we all agree that ultimately bitcoin is going up, then we just have to error on the side of hodl..., no... and hodl a lodl and not a little...


So for example, if you own 100 btc, then you know that for every dollar rise in BTC's price, your portfolio's value goes up by $100.... accordingly only trade with the profits, until after BTC goes past previous ATh into the $3k to $5k territory - where it will be a bit safer to rake higher levels of profits and possibly trade in more of the principle.

O.k.  admittedly, I have no clear formula except for attempting to error on the side of hodl.

Making memes out of the disabled is kinda in poor taste brah.

i agree ... but taste was buried a long time ago after lambchop and the shit-slinging brigade showed up to smear this place with their excrement, begin there?

Peon might be able to take a hint.

Lambie is lambie. Like I said, newbie jail is a possibility, but forum owners like more forum users. And when you think about it, this place would be boring as hell without a little shit-stirrin'
