I think XT won't be happening given the market uncertainty it caused.

Currently zero percent of the miner vote.

XT supporting nodes have more than doubled in a few days though (810 Bitcoin XT nodes today vs 3xx late Sunday)

I don't think we've bottomed out yet with more core and XT split discussions to come.

XT'ers shouldn't be lobbying miners directly. They should first lobby the node operators, then the exchanges and payment processors. If they win those two battles the miners will follow.

Many mining pools have already indicated they want bigger blocks. That doesn't necessarily mean we'll see a switch to XT but if we start seeing the higher block version numbers increasing in number, it could start a rush to XT.

Or a half decent solution come out of the core team that addresses the need for bigger blocks but doesn't fork the network, raise the block size so large the spam bloat on the chain will render it humongous  or move us from a team of core devs to two mavericks.

This gif made me lol so hard.  Bitcoin market in 2014, and the Oil market and Chinese stock market now.

Of course I'm now more bullish on the Bitcoin market for 2 reasons, and the second one is a pretty sad but true reason:  

1. We've bottomed out.

2. Hi net worth traders absolutely LOVE volatility, and they've basically exhausted all other markets for now (U.S. stock market, European market, Chinese market, commodities market, gold market, etc.).  

There's really no where else for them to run to get that fix, and the Bitcoin market hasn't seen a real rally in a long time.  And they know that public sentiment is down for all those other markets right now.

So IMO, it's just a matter of time before they come back to the Bitcoin market again.

So if i start mining on XT, will the blocks be easier to find?

No.

It's all mathematics...!
Remember the best time to buy is when there is nothing but pessimism and "blood on the streets".

No doubt the drop was due to two things...leverage and the whole uncertainty with the Gavin XT split issue!

Guys... I don't really understand what u discuss here... but I have a simple question... there is any chance the price of btc to coming back like it was 24h ago?

It will come back eventually.

I think there was downward pressure because we prematurely jumped from the $240s due to Greece news. It helped to highlight the uses of Bitcoin but people expected it to cause a big rally.

But at least we were on a long term upward move so no worries.

Funny how this dump happened almost exactly 1 year after the old ATH high long bubble popped.

Are you saying that there are pictures of Jeff and Gavin in their underpants?

Strong buy now imo. Anyone agree?

What happened was due to swaps. Did you watch the other exchanges? They followed to a certain point, but there was no selling pressure below $220 even when the sky was falling. These are cheap coins.


not sure they are cheap coins.

 is it not likely that the current price ($232) is the old recent price of about $250 discounted down for the core/xt uncertainty? ie the spike may not have been about the core/xt issue but by happening it has lead people to react ie by not bringing it back to $250.

if then it can drop $18 on $250 (7%?) that easily/quickly  I think there is likely to be much more prospect of it dropping again in more chunks as larger and larger numbers react to the core/xt uncertainty.

No market likes uncertainty especially not a volitile market like bitcoin. There was litte new demand before but now i see there being none until well into 2016 when things might be clearer. So its only existing players trying to outsmart existing players. sh*t fighting is its common use name. no place for weak hands
