things you own end up owning you

What is a 'weak hand'? Why is this type of penny stock terminology used in bitcoin? Does this imply that bitcoin is some type of investment scheme to hold rather than a currency to use?
It's a poker term long before "penny stocks." It means you lack confidence in you ability to play.
So it's a profit making game and not the future of money?
Is money not about profit?
Bitcoin is supposed to be about creating a decentralized network to change the way the world does finance and payments - not about getting all the bitcoin participants to be rich off of the successive waves of bitcoin participants because the unit value rose and having a contest about who made the most profits.

I invested to make money and to be able to reach some goals ( the volatility makes it easier than working hard to earn that money Wink )... I literally don't give a fuck about the technology behind it, it is a cool innovation and all but I don't think it is a reason for to risk my life savings and be a "strong hand" when I could collect profits and not be a greedy bastard.... most of the time people here will attack you when you tell them that you are trading to make a profit or when you tell them you cashed out some of your holdings....



That is NOT why you were attacked.  You were attacked b/c you failed to articulate any plan that made sense to anyone beyond yourself.. and even then, NOT clear if it made sense.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-all-time-high-and-the-hoarding-theory-poll-included-656657

I've attempted to make a quick response within that thread, and to also respond to the poll to the extent any of the answers come close to what is really happening here.

In essence, the mere fact that you spending a lot of time publicly discussing this matter in various threads seems to demonstrate that you do NOT really know the fuck what you are talking about or even that you have adequately analyzed or understood your own position nor your plan.

 I am NOT sure whether you have bad intents, so in that regard, I feel sorry for some of your ignorance... and lack of recognition of your own inabilities to know when to stop and when you likely need to spend some private time figuring out what you are doing and why you are doing it in order that you can explain.. to the extent that you end up continuing to post these kinds of matters in public threads....

Otherwise, you decisions regarding your investments or lack thereof in BTC or in other crypto-currencies are your own private concerns, and probably it would be better for everyone, including yourself, for you to keep your seemingly stupid-ass ill conceived and inadequately contemplated ideas to yourself... until they are better formulated.    That's just my sense of the situation, at the moment, so take it for what it is worth.. and if you are NOT ready, willing or able to understand or to accept my thoughts, then NO problem to just let my comments pass.

you didn't answer to a single argument... you just choose a personal attack path.. you are a joke.

This is the land of wolves now & you're not a wolf
will the result(s) of the fbi coin auction be published?

Most likely the info will reach the internet, whether it is supposed to or not. i assume this because even a tentative list of potential buyers was leakes, even though it wasn't supposed to

I agree. Typical wall street slang. They will soon come. You will notice it also on the price.

You really think it'll be like that? Maybe later, but definitely not when they start. Expect surprises.

I agree with OP, but I also fear Wall St. with their lobbyists. Wall st. is just so pellentesque.

Don't use bots. They will just lead you to having 0 BTC. And yeah, the volume on Kraken is pretty low.

I don't know, I was able to code an arb bot that was reasonably profitable, but in the end I found I wasn't up to the task of accounting for all the possible failure scenarios and decided the risk for me was greater than the reward. At the time there was a big differential between a small exchange and a larger one, and sometimes good opportunities arose when prices were fluctuating. Unfortunately, those times were also the times the API on one or the other exchange was most likely to bug out due to heavy load, and figuring out how to deal with the risks introduced by an unreliable connection seemed too much for me. Someone with actual coding skills could probably do a better job than I did, though.

Just to make a further point, loads of blocks on the legit chain from GHash means that they are NOT using A LOT of their potential hashing power to make a fake chain. It is more concerning when their hashrate suddenly DROPS because they still have the power, and could be using it (in theory) to make a fake chain of greater length than the main chain full of double spends etc. Every time I see a legit block from GHash I can be fairly certain that must be using their mining power for the most obvious reason, to generate bitcoin.

absolutely love your sig!!
awesome video. great music.

Thank you very much.

Sideways on 600-610... This will be a long week.
Ghash.io hashrate went up again. Greedy bastards. I don't see why it's so hard for them to just create two more pools and split up.
and not to destroy the value of the single thing that their entire business relies upon.

Thank you for your elaboration.
It makes sense.


Thank you for your appreciation, it felt good Cheesy

Has Bitfinex stopped updating the orderbook, or just for me? bitcoinity and bitcoinwisdom show no trades for about an hour.
f5

Confirmed, when fetching order book or trades history, Coinorama robot is getting Incapsula (DDoS protection) errors.

Does anyone have or know of a BOT that I can get for Kraken yet ? Last time I enquired I got the response that the volume was too low for anyone to consider building a BOT for it.

Thanks

Don't use bots. They will just lead you to having 0 BTC. And yeah, the volume on Kraken is pretty low.
Also I think just using exchanges is going to eventually lead everyone into having 0 BTC until the regulated exchanges open.

Bitcoin is incredible.  ONE bitcoin is over 600 dollars!!  Everyone gets hyped up over charts with moons rockets and trains but just stop and realize a digital token is worth 600 dollars.  That is absolutely amazing and even if it falls apart tomorrow, it just shows that crypto is for real and will be a huge part of human history.

LOL, like $600 is something. Wait until we hit $10000 Cheesy You'll go nuts.
Bitcoin can go only one way in the long term, and that's up. Demand, demand, demand.

600 is something incredible. I bought during the hype of the April bubble with most in the 140-160 range.  Just the fact that a digital token on a decentralized global ledger has ANY non-zero value is an incredible feat and worthy of ribbons, nobel prizes, and all the pussy Satoshi wants.

The difference is each new low doesn't go below the height of the last high. Also, Bitcoin are limited supply and have utility.  Oh it is fonzie, why did I even reply
