double spend your coin on a big dollar deal i dare you.

The network targets 10 minutes for one confirmation. But it's usually less than that. For small transactions you don't need it anyway. Nobody is going to spend the mining resources trying to double spend a small transaction. They'd lose money. So for transactions that cost less than the average cost to mine a block, it's safe to go with zero confirmations.

apple pay... is going to flop.
I can't even use it, because its for US only
I can't use receive 1$ payments because it will cost 5$ in fee to do so
I can't use it to send money to africa because ...well idk why not...
I can't use it as a hedged its USD's
I'm sure the user interface will literally be 1 button "BUY NOW!", and this is very wow, but i dont care...
I can't believe i feel compelled to state such obviousness...

Since I'm lazy, how long do transactions take with bitcoin? 7 mins or something for the recommended # confirmations IIRC; so.. can this ever get faster or slower? I think we'd all agree thats a bit slower than it should be.
Other than that Bitcoin is incredible as a payment system.
do i have to send you a beer?
its instant!

Sorry I have not been following this thread of late. To all those looking to go to the Moon, the New Horizons spacecraft is due to reach Pluto on July 14, 2015. That is in 307 days 7 hrs and 38 min. It was launched in 2006 and I have been following it for 5 years.
So have patience it will come. Then again I hear that btc is a tourist trap.

This Apple pay service looks good, very fast transactions (not waiting around 30 minutes to buy your buckwheat smoothie while the vendor waits for the transaction to confirm) and best of all, your credit card number is completely safe because it is encrypted in the software, and Apple uses a one time randomly generated pass for each transition. Even if you lose your phone, your credit card number is safe.
tl;dr .... basically, every perceived benefit of bitcoin has been destroyed

does this mean you're going to leave us alone? for good.
Nothing that Apple does addresses the most important aspect, the elimination of the need for a trusted third party.
And yes, though I liked the cut your loose thing, it's kinda jumped the shark.
I think it's time to retire the chuckle account and come back with something fresh
Just my opinion, still a big fan

what no one told them iFapHarder is going to be GOOOD

205 new shorts opened, and immediately dumped at market.
What does that mean?
It means 1/3 of the coins sold on Bfx during this mini-drop came from newly opened shorts.
IMO, the drops have been small for the last 24 hours, indicating the shorts are unsure about their positions.

That's the dump everyone has been waiting for.

It's 04:40 in the morning, so I should go to bed instead of watching this slow rally. I'll just play the Bitcoin rally song one last time 
the next few hours are absolutely critical
just say'n ....
I feel ya.. especially since I am trying to get in touch with my humanness.... ..
in essence, the whole sin qua non of bitcoin, any crypto currency and the world as we know it, depends upon the next few hours. Seriously...
