I had that thought.  I too have seen very smart people intellectually and verbally crippled by a stroke.  It's a true tragedy.

However this is markedly different.  Check genuine Satoshi's posts:

Then re-read that letter.  It's not just a linguistic breakdown; the entire personality and approach has changed.  I simply can not believe that they are the same person.

I affirmed that there were no audits, and that is a fact.  What Ver and Antonopoulos did were not audits (even Ver admitted that).  Saying that they were audits is a lie. 

Everyone who went to school in the U.S. until about 1995 was taught to double space after final period.

I think that Satoshi thought that bitcoin will go to $1000 and not stop there. I thing that Satoshi estimated bitcoin maximum final price to be either $160 000 (replacing annual VISA volume) or $330 000 (replacing gold) or $800 000 (replacing USA GNP). He did not estimate bitcoin to go over $4 500 000 (If all the world economy was converted to bitcoins.).

WTF are you talking about? Plug is pulled by who?

After seeing the effects of a stroke first hand, it is absolutely possible to go from white-paper nakamoto to newsweek nakamoto.  

its not enthusiasm believe me....its just feeling culpable for having sold the goxcoins profiteering from other peoples Stockholm syndrom..

or who were blinded  to see through this " making the Ponzi work to rid the last idiot of his monies" which is still going on because nobody wants to

accept the fact that there have been 800000 stolen coins sold down to a hundred dollars at empty Gox.....

I would be rather worried that the plug is again pulled- why not tomorrow morning ? - nobody else suspicious why it is being held at 650 if you ´d really

come to your senses thinking the matters through ?   ok then cheers

Fair enough that you have your mantra or your view of things in which you seem to want to simplify and to describe BTC bullishness attitudes as a form of cultish behavior.

 Frequently, there is some truth to any fiction and/or any propaganda, including the framework that you are outlining.  

I do NOT really have any major problem with you having your viewpoint and expressing it - though I remain somewhat bothered that your simplification has a tendency to dilute and distract and to mislead....  and also sometimes it rises to the level of patronizing and criticizing guys for being blind followers - when that frequently is NOT the case.  YET, I have seen that a few of your posts have made decent points, from time to time, so long as you steer clear from what seems to rise to personal attacks.

By the way, my various times stating, millions, billions or gazillions, it does NOT matter was to suggest that the exact number was NOT the point that was being made at that particular time... though, I recognize that sometimes, we may need to get fairly specific concerning the numbers that we are considering.... .. and in that regard if we were to take a snapshot of bitcoin's current infrastructure, we are going to come up with several ways to calculate the value of that infrastructure.. and some ways are going to produce larger numbers depending upon which aspects of the infrastructure that are included in such snapshot(s).

 

Right. But the two of you are taking up over 50% of the posts. Your enthusiasm about this news is obvious and representative.

I wonder if Leah hears a train coming?

don´t see any bears here yet besides me and kaspar

yeah unluckily the whole craptofuck thing turns out to be a pump and dump scheme where all insiders are short now, having fractionally stolen

the entrusted coins to loot away all " invested" fiat now from the unsuspecting suckers who still want to be delusional about the string of

 " informations" being thrown at them....never mind...GTFO

Interesting. I've been waiting on some news to come out so we could judge, based on market reaction, whether we are still in a bear market or not.

Here on the forum the bears are out in full force. But the exchanges have only gone down slightly. This is the kind of semi-neutral news that could be interpreted good or bad, with a slight lean towards bad.

But the exchanges are holding their own so far. If we go up from here, I might reconsider whether this bear market still has legs.

While I agree that LTC should cost more, I think that LTC is even more concentrated and manipulated. Someone is constantly forcing the market with 2mil.$+ buy and sell walls at BTC-E. I bet it's the same guys that run BTC-E, because I really doubt that an outsider would trust this amount of money to the anonymously owned BTC-E

Ok

Market orders are not static. Start dumping even 50k coins and most of the buy orders will get pulled to see how low will the dump go. 1mil+ coins will easily get the price back into cents and most of the fiat will permanently leave the exchanges because no one will know if there will be another wave of 1mil coin dumps.
Only thing that keeps people calm at the moment is that this hasn't happened yet.

great thing about bitcoin is that the market is never worried about the obvious implications that its completly rigged on his way back down to 30 bucks  

and if there would be at least a smear of integrity about all craptofuck left, LTC /BTC would be at 0.25 not ten times less

Cents? There are xx millions of dollars on exchanges at least so price would be at around $xx. What bottom price would be at flash crash doesn't matter.

Just as Gutenberg's movable type revolutionized printed word, typewriters were the first time the common man could print anything without a pen or pencil.

Double spacing after a sentence's closing punctuation was "the way to do it" for a long time. Typewriters (around since the 1700s) had mono-spaced fonts. In the spacing within a word, the letter i was just as wide as a w. Double spacing at the end of a sentence was a convention when typing anything.

Early PC printers were a typewriter with a serial port. It wasn't until word processors in the 80's were developed a bit past the first-gen, that proportional spacing was available. Dot-matrix printers could print it.

Those that have not heard of that were either born into the word processor age, or never taught to type on a typewriter. Then there was teh intarwebz, which changed everything...

I don't know what Satoshi thought.. I don't even know who Satoshi is, so it's very hard to speculate his motives and plans. And that makes it funny that people are calling bitcoin "sound money"... they are actually trusting their wealth in the hands of someone they know nothing about... because if those old 1mil coins will be dumped, then bitcoin is back to costing cents and won't ever recover
