I don't think anyone here really realizes how very rich you are all going to be someday. Oh, sure you all bla bla bla about holding coins and buying more but don't realize that you will honestly be wealthy. If any of you were to get hit by a bus and wake from a coma 10 years from now, if you properly secured your wallet, you would want for nothing the rest of your lives.

10 years?  Hopefully 2 or 3 years is all it takes.   Grin  I could do without the coma too. Wink

I think many of us are very optimistic.  Nothing is for sure though.  The strange thing is I tend to be pretty conservative and not much of a risk taker but with Bitcoin it is hard to not just throw caution to the wind and go all in.  The rewards outweigh the risk so much that it is more logical to do so than not to.

Cryptsy is imploding.

I've taken my coins out and would suggest the same to anyone.

Based on what?

Er... it's actually down right now:  Error 502

Edit - back up - but it has been weird at losing trades and having balance problems lately - not sure it's 'imploding' just yet - what happened?

Love watching the bitch ass bears fold out..  love it.

You do realize that in Poker, the ones losing the most are the ones who go all-in when their cards are not as strong?

Historically in bitcoin, the only losers haven been the ones who sold.

have lost a chance for future gains Cheesy but of course it was so much easier to buy and hold.

Better make sure you pick the right co-astronaut for the trip, just in case...

That one.  I pick that one.
Haha, I know right? 
Too bad her character on "the newsroom" spouts a lot of nonsense about economics, otherwise I might have considered her as a candidate for the future Mrs. Spaceman  Wink .

Lucky for me, I've never seen The Newsroom.

I'm looking at this picture and all I can think is "why the F would we want to go there?"

the human race has an instinctive drive to explore and experiment
its what got us this far
its what will insure our survival
its fucking important
This is the "Official OFFTOPIC thread" so here's my thought:

Because if for some unfortunate reason , something happens in THIS planet there will be the seed for the society to be rebuilt.

This would be great, and a huge advantage to the network and for security of exchanges and customers alike.

But will the exchanges do this?

It may be they already sell BTC they don't have.   These exchanges are not run by paragons of virtue!

Getting BTC-e, Stamp and Gox all doing this looks tough - UNLESS they are more afraid of security issues than being found out for what they are (potentially) hiding from the market.  It is possible on balance this is the case.

It would be a leap forward if it worked - but it will take the will and a lot of work.

EDITED to remove thoughts on how they could sell coins they don't actually have - no need to freak everyone out!
In order to get the ball rolling it's only necessary to get three sites to join the first pool. Once that happens, we've got a method for adding new members to the pool one at a time (up to the Bitcoin protocol maximum of 20).

So maybe you don't start with BTC-e, Stamp and Gox to begin with. Perhaps you convince LocalBitcoins, CampBX, and Coinfloor.

Then you make it a competitive disadvantage to not join the pool  by heavily emphasizing how much more secure deposits are in the exchanges that join a pool versus those who do not until the remaining exchanges either join up, or experience a run on the bank which reveals their insolvency.
