I am amused that we have made a new ATH of $29,700 and no one seems to have noticed. Including myself.
I don't like saying, "I told you so" but I did mention it in my morning greeting.
I realize nobody actually reads it but it's a good way to keep my post count up.

So posters with 0.5-10 coins may still be posting a lot. As they really need BTC to move to 100k or more
before they think they have decent money.

Eh. I've been enjoying New Year's (thank fucking God 2020 is over) but at the same time I'm really just in awe of what's going on. I'm sure it will pop at some point but truth be told I don't need any fiat right now so no need to screw with the bitcoin stash.
But yeah, it's a good thing to remember that if it goes to 100k I'll probably feel the same way.

ATH for 🐜
↑ What is that a llama for ants?
I woke up to the new ATH but by the time I had made a cup of espresso, it was back down to $29,350 so I decided to wait for 30k to celebrate.
see, I've been generating 30k addresses.

The computer is pulling nearly 500 Watts to do this so it's keeping me nice and warm too.

wow, elwar made it to one of the most reputable german newspapers! (only in german)

here is a quote:
you are the man, elwar! the entire article is way more friendly/neutral than some of the reactions in bitcointalk. i am impressed. ms satoshi story is also covered.

Elwar surely has some HUGE balls! He's sort of a public figure and everybody knows where he lives etc... frankly, don't want to sound cynical but I'm surprised he's still alive and well and nobody has tried to extort his coins yet
So seems like many WO-ers overestimate the importance of opsec. 
Or maybe not... OpSec is more a risk management of possible future events. (not only unlawful ones)
It's much harder when you're having a business, especially one associated with bitcoin...

You are right but now we are at $29300 hopefully now next stop is $30K very quickly coming.Just squeeze your butt cheeks tight and pray the tether train keeps chooching.

I think there are a few people that now have made serious $ or should I say serious
Maybe 100+ coinsThey may have decided to back off on posting like mad.
I think there are some in the 10-50 coin in holdings that now are Maybe I should shut up as my 290k to 1450k could get me hurt.
So posters with 0.5-10 coins may still be posting a lot. As they really need BTC to move to 100k or more
before they think they have decent money.
The thing is that "decent money" is very subjective. And while somebody's goal is $1m there are peeps who have that amount in fiat and its a not big deal for them. So they're just waiting until their 50 coins will cost say $25m... that would be a life-changing money for them...

^ looks like an IBM XT (with 8086 or 8088) with removed or photoshopped logo. Good old times and burnt in monitors...
EDIT: 5.25" 360KB (iirc) Floppy disks were standard. You could cut/punch out the write-enable tab at the other side and turn em around (vertical flip) and use em double-sided. Just like the old 8" dinosaurs, but a little more handy and soo above punch cards and tape reels back then.

I had a very similar-looking Siemens Nixdorf XT 088 with a monochrome monitor (black and amber?orange?) and a dot matrix printer these floppies had to be handled very carefully and didn't last long anyway
these floppies had to be handled very carefully and didn't last long anyway yeah looked like a green monochrome monitor. got one out in the barn somewhere.
