#TheGoyimKnow
yet another far right wing multiple murder?

Give it up (((shitbag))).  Nobody believes these govt staged attacks.  Jew puppet director of the FBI, Christopher Wray, comes out of the blue claiming "white people" are the #1 threat to America and then two days later they do these false flags and load up the entire news 24/7 with pre-scripted actors like Beto O'rourke and Pete Douchebagajig trying to ban guns and demonize white people.  

This new false flag shooting is even more obvious than the Florida one where crisis actor David Hogg first claimed he was inside the school when it happened, and then later he claimed he was AT HIS HOUSE and "rode his bicycle" to the school to see it and wasn't there when it happened at all LOL.  He can't even keep his false flag story straight.

Disagree. Energy and performance.... It's almost all in nutrition. Get used to eat low carb.
20% carbs, no sugars, no sweeteners, no softdrinks, avoid wheat meal.
30-50% fat, it delivers slow, sustained energy
50-30% proteins. Preferably milk, cheese, eggs, meat.

The more fibers (more vegetables, less fruit), the less obstipation. Once you start to lose weight and gain energy, start exercising and probably add muscle supplements in small doses. Watch your joints, do less running, more exercise without weights, only body weight (planking, push-ups 15-30mins over a day). This is just for compensating posture problems when you sit around most of the day. Walking and moving around (playing with the kids) should be enough to keep you fit. The body works best when delivered the right "fuel".

Just my three cents.

EDIT: I'm keeping myself to this "diet" 95% of the time. I eat 2-3 times a day and i don't feel hungry for 6+ hours after eating. I remember times at McDonalds and the likes, where i was hungry 2-3 hours after feeling fully saturated.

Thanks for your advice, I have no overweight problems (high 1.82m / 75kg.)
As of everything but little amount, the gym bores me, the only sport I practice is skiing, the rest of the year I will walk 2 or 3 times a week and it keeps me well.

I'd like to see any of these shitcoin lovers that come and grace this thread, answer this one question:

If Bitcoin functions securely, has the most and widest user/broker/exchange/merchant/miner support, and does everything it needs to do for both e-commerce transactions and SoV, why look elsewhere for anything else?

If you can't answer honestly without throwing in " 'cause speculation reasons", then you are full of shit. Because outside of that, trying to get rich on a flyer or something, you'd have no valid reason.


Horrible privacy, Horrible scaling at the first layer, unreliable for microtransactions...etc, and now toxic community that has cult-like features.

Beam is everything that Bitcoin is not that is why I say it is not a zero-sum game.

Also, ain't no one telling me about how is the code is great, I worked for a company that basically made shitcoins for other companies (private blockchains), it is so much insulting to hear about how much talent Bitcoin devs have, other industries have thousands of better-talented people that you can't even start comparing.. I cringe so hard every time I hear this especially because most of the time it comes from noobs who have no idea.


I love how you shitcoiners are always jumping ship. I thought it was Grin or some shit that was "bestest". So Beam is the shitcoin du jour this month? What'll it be next week, or month? Another new shitcoin? I guess there's always a new "bestest shitcoin" right around the corner.  Make sure you catch the pump tho, and then dump it. No reason to support it for years, or even decades.

Degenerate bull hatter & Bitcoin monotheist

same mistake as Monero.

Wrong a tiny tail emission that supports mining is not infinite coins.



Tail emission forever *is* infinite coins. Monero’s tail emission rate is 3.6%.  

 Bitcoin’s current inflation rate is 3.87%. In May 2020 Bitcoin’s inflation rate will be less than Monero’s tail emission rate and will keep falling.  Monero will never match Bitcoin as a store of value.  

The transaction fees on Monero are sufficiently horrifying that there is plenty there to support mining.

Tail emission is a fatal flaw.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
I argued the mere fact that Beam is not a shitcoin after someone mentioned that it was. Happy speculation, I will probably check in after another 3 years.

No one will use company/foundation/corporation/country/whatever owned coins. Specially with alternatives they have.


Data show otherwise, Beam average number of transactions daily is much more than Monero and definitely more than Zcash and Grin combined and it is growing daily, again I am not trying to convince you anything, just get your facts straight.

Someone asked me how come an OG like me is into altcoins, the truth is that I joined this space for 2 things: interesting tech and making profits, and after 7 years I am still looking at all kinds of tech and trying to make a living off it at the same time, so all I can say to you guys is don't be stuck in that echo chamber of maximalism, be a minimalist on maximalism because it is becoming a cult.

Ask yourself what is the goal behind your involvement in this space, then be agnostic about it.


Sad to see another legendary account sold/stolen and turned into a shitcoin shill. Angry

Regarding the sold or stolen, no way... he is the same dweeb as before.. in other words, he was always like that...  at least from 2014, when I became familiar with him.  I did not look back at his pre-2014 posting history.

There is no such thing that all legendary accounts automatically are "with the program" like many of the WO active participants - and not saying that only legendary accounts are enlightened because sometimes you could be a newbie account and be enlightened about bitcoin.  I have been hearing some good podcasters, recently, and fuck some of those guys seem to be quite with the program and they have only been into bitcoin for short periods of time.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
I hope that the world does not deteriorate further in that direction... though I do agree with you regarding the likely transfer or wealth from nocoiners to coiners, so in that regard, it is not too late to join the world of coiners if you happen to not be one, yet.  Surely there is some benefits to getting into BTC earlier.   Is there a saying about when is the best time to get into bitcoin?  yesterday.  When is the second best time to get into bitcoin?  today.  

I think that there are at least a few more 10x price runs (maybe even up to 5) before the wealth transfer from no coiners to coiners has largely and mostly taken place.

Many of us who are mostly not easily shaken from our coins will be decently rich, maybe even approaching "filthy" level with one or two more 10x price surges.  One 10x surge puts prices at $100k and 2 10x surges puts prices at $1million.  Most others participating in this thread with lower BTC holdings should be able to achieve such status by the time three 10x price surges occur.. that would be $10million a coin, so in those circumstances, even .5 BTC would be decent, but a whole coin would be even better... and you guys holding 5 or more coins will be sitting pretty... problem is that $10million per coin seems a bit of a stretch of the imagination, even if it is after 2028 or so?  there are quite a few participants in this thread that have at least until 2028 to stack their sats, no?

To me current probabilities look like this:

Within 3 years (2022), I estimate the probability of $100K at 50%

If 100K is achieved on schedule, $1mil probability in 2026 might be 20-30%

It is also possible that $300-400K (roughly a marketcap of gold) would be a longer term maximum for a decade or a bit longer.

TL;DR 10X surges will not continue for multiple cycles, maybe only 1-2 such cycles left.

Your numbers seem to be pretty reasonable, so instead of settling for "filthy" rich, it is better for many of us to just to count on "normal everyday regular" rich.   Cry Cry Cry

And, maybe peeps who want to achieve at least a minimum of $2million, would need to have at least a minimum of 6 coins - that is if there is any kind of sustainability in the $350k price range.

Personally I would not expect sustainability of any kind of meaningful price in BTC for the next 20 years or so, but there might be some frequently passed through areas that are sticking points from time to time... and market cap for gold seems to be a kind of reasonable one - even though bitcoin, in and of itself is probably decently 10x more valuable than gold, as a whole and as a system, but yeah, we are not going to see true value for a while, and also peeps of the world are not going to appreciate the value of bitcoin for a while, whether retail or institutions and surely retail is likely to lag behind institutions, I would think... but hey what do I know?

nothing to see here
I’ve started to go for a long walk every night now to try & get fitter. When you hit your 30’s your metabolism goes out of the window & it’s tough to stay in shape. Think I’m gonna join a gym soon.

Man, you think 30s are tough on metabolism, wait until you hit 40. I simply eat too much these days, whereas 5 years ago it would have been just enough, and my job keeps me inside. Still not really a good excuse to avoid exercise. I should find a gym nearby and try to hit the weights again. Beginning to grow old man tits, like Craig Wright.
I am on my 37th. Last two (three) years I am not into much physical work (almost no physical work). Most of the time, I am in my desk, with family, day out once or twice in a week, visiting relatives are my regular life. I have to admit that I eat too much and get hungry very quick. I am too lazy that I do not do any sorts of physical exercise. Last few days I am having this thought that I really (seriously) need to look after my physic. I mean I look healthy and strong but I feel I do not have much stamina, get tired very quick. Body full of fat especially the bally area. It's getting bigger. I used to drink and smoke a lot but not into serious drinking from years and gave up smoking (almost zero in a week but sometimes one or two in a month) from last two years.

Every day I keep saying my wife that I will start exercise from tomorrow but this tomorrow never comes. I have to admit it's hard to find motivation to have a lean healthy body.

Start walking for about 45 minutes 2 or 3 days a week, you will not become an athlete, but will keep you fit.

I have called every bottom and top since 2012

I sold most around $9K bought back with some of my stash around $4500

Muahaha just for your info, $9k was not the top and $4.5k was not the bottom   Grin Grin Grin

I will probably check in after another 3 years

Please check in... never


I didn't phrase that accurately it was not the exact top and bottom, it is not like everyone catches the exact bottom and top, Buying back around $200 gave me 45X gains and I also bought Ethereum at around $0.85, I made a killing there as well.

After each #bitcoin all time high (ATH) we saw a downward difficulty adjustment. In the chart the lowest monthly difficulty level (blue) is reset to 100% .. and seems to be an objective start of the next bull run (green/yellow), with 100x opportunity. Just started a new run ...

If Bitcoin functions securely, has the most and widest user/broker/exchange/merchant/miner support, and does everything it needs to do for both e-commerce transactions and SoV, why look elsewhere for anything else?

If you can't answer honestly without throwing in " 'cause speculation reasons", then you are full of shit. Because outside of that, trying to get rich on a flyer or something, you'd have no valid reason.
BTC isn't ideal for small/fast transactions and has proven to be conservative as far as making changes to address such problems.  Waiting around a random amount of time from a few minutes to much longer for a single confirmation is awkward and confusing in a world where most things are nearly instantaneous.  I feel like that at least leaves the door open a bit.

Fast transactions do not have to happen on 1st layer, and there seems to be a lot of building of second layer solutions in bitcoin, so if it is not broken, it is still in development.  Perhaps bitcoin could also absorb some other coin that might be better at transacting quickly as a second layer solution... although it does not really seem necessary to have any other second token for that... but whatever, who the fuck knows... things develop as they develop and there is a kind of snowballing effect anyhow that comes out a bit differently than expected and with variants of unexpectedness.


You should think bitcoin as a Swiss bank account in your pocket. Best security, best liquidity, most known, best store of value. But you can't buy that goddamn coffee with it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

LN is not perfect but at least somebody is working on it. Will it solve the problem completely? Who knows...

Till then use doge, ltc, xmr or whatever you like.

I believe for what it can do right now, Bitcoin is unrivaled: Security, Liquidity, SoV. If you just tune it to make it coffee-ready, the system collapses. I am fine with that. I can still use my CC or Doge for $1-10 purchases. Bitcoin is for > $100 payments and keeping your wealth secure away from banks.

If it was possible don't you think ETH, bitcoin's closest rival, would have solved it first? There isn't a magical solution to that problem.

ETH collapsed under heavy load too, no blockchain can carry the world demand. You can't expect the impossible from blockchains. If the blocks are full go use something else. I don't see anything wrong with that because there isn't a known safe solution, if there was one, BTC devs would have implemented it already.

People tend to forget just how speculative bitcoin really is. Sure it has been around over ten years but it is still a grand experiment and experiments fail sometimes. I tend to think in 5 years bitcoin will be either be worth more than $50,000 or zero. If Wall Street can make money from it that is a powerful force to keep bitcoin alive. Sure it is decentralized but governments can shut down the on and off ramps like Coinbase if they decide bitcoin is a real threat to fiat. Or regulate them to the point price crashes.

First you seem to be giving way too much probability to the possibility of zero in such a short period of time.  Of course, some governments could start shutting down on ramps, but how the fuck you going to get all governments to cooperate in that direction?  Governments do no necessarily agree with each other, and you think that they are going to agree with any figure head like The donald?  Furthermore, even if there were a more likeable and agreeable figure, there is still likely going to be localism battles that are not going to necessarily go along with the shutting down bitcoin theme that you imagine to be possible in the next 5 years.

Regarding your point about bitcoin being highly speculative, this has been my point all along about why it seems to be NOT necessary to diversify too much into other coins.  Bitcoin is already risky, and the other coins largely just follow bitcoin, and if bitcoin were either to go to zero or get pummelled down into a lot lower market cap (in other words more underground), then it would be difficult to imagine a world in which other coins would still be able to prosper in such a system in which bitcoin is not able to.. .because it seems that so far bitcoin is the only one that really has any kind of degree of decentralized secure mining that would be sufficiently resilient to really back up potential grandiose attacks, were they to occur in any kind of systematic way from BIG players such as governments.
