Then IRS is doing more than just setting a bad example. They are breaking the law and now, they are trying to cover it up. Someone will find those supposedly "lost emails".

The 1hr chart on Bitstamp seems quite rythmic for the last 3 days.

I'm so used to the regular "pump and dumps" that every time the price goes up a little, I get a feeling of remorse.

I think "The Great 1 Day 2014 Bull Market" just ended.

You think Mt. Gox is solely responsible for the ~ 1200$ price tag? That's interesting. Has anyone explained how? If so then Bitcoin's collapse is also due to Mt. Gox as well as bears and the bear market.
Willey bot.

Take another look. I think that thing grows where the sun don't shine.
Where is the button that makes the needles come out?

I may not post a lot but I've been around for quite some time. It appears to me that the large majority of FUD is coming from the "Core" camp.

lol wtf
first off you can't have anyone and everyone "the community" making changes as they please to the code base without completely destroying that code.
second, if anything XT proves just how decentralized Bitcoin dev is, and at any point in time a change can be made WITHOUT consensus via forking, whether or not this fork is accepted by the community is another story.
third, TLDR too much nonsense
The nonsense is centralized developers calling the evolution hostile, blocking discussion, and spreading FUD. The bottom line more users will not break Bitcoin and preparation for more users as soon as next year isn't rushing anything.
Bitcoin development is centralized about 90% of the network runs centrally developed code. That group of developers are actively pushing to move Bitcoin transactions and their fees off the blockchain.
Moving Bitcoin fees off the blockchain will compromise security as the block reward diminishes.
Exactly!

One thing is for sure and you can quote me on this later. This whole XT mess will go away at some point when all the devs get together and sort it out, agree to future pull requests etc. When that happens god help the shorts.
That will never happen until Blockstream is removed from the equation.

I started buying my first Bitcoins in march of 2014. My Bitcoins have never been worth more than I paid for them until the last week or two. It feels pretty good!

During my 20 days, 5 hours and 59 minutes in this forum, I've come to two conclusions.
1- Half of the people here are comedians.
2- The other half have no sense of humor.

Those are not even close to anarchists. Those are identical to the collectivist leftists posting in this thread. Leftism is a mental disorder based on inferiority complex where you can only relate to groups deemed weak, discriminated against, wronged, inferior, etc.
Those people latch onto the whales because they see them as having been wronged. It's a clear case of textbook collectivist leftism. Their mental disorder is often mistaken for just common empathy, but that's not how it works. Anything seen as strong or seemingly normal they have contempt for, so it's not empathy, but an actual behavior pattern/defect.
They were all dumped into the trash can when they were younger and now show contempt for anything in their mind that they see stronger than themselves (which is everything).
I think that pretty much sums it up. I totally agree.

Follow the weekly Bitstamp chart. If it closes green for 6 times in a row, we are on bubble territory (currently 4 consecutive weekly greens). If we instead end this week in red, there is nothing to worry.
IF we get 6 greens, this means we can go on for a long time still but watch for a blowoff top and trade accordingly.
The methodology worked perfect in the latest 500 spike, and you can easily check a very good match with all previous bubbles as well.
First TERA and now Risto- we're getting the band back together!
no better indicator of a bull market than old-timers becoming active again
Hold on there, Pardner. Don't confuse cause and effect. All that means is the price is higher. The bull market isn't really back until the ATH is topped. That won't happen without a scaling fix because long before we get to four digits, we'll slam into the 1MB blocksize limit.
When the blocks are totally full, the fees could go up 100X what they are now because there is only enough capacity for ~600,000 transactions per day. That's it, no matter how high the fees go, there won't be enough capacity for each of us to have even one xation/day each. NO MATTER HOW HIGH THE FEES GO.
You don't wait until the snow starts falling before you start chopping firewood. It's coming.
Maybe the chiming of old timer voices is just the sound of Bitcoins death knell?

I'm afraid that my belief in the success of Bitcoin has truly been shaken in the last few months. I just don't see any light at the end of the tunnel.

They don't call bitcoin the honeybadger of money for nothing. You think the honeybadger gives a shit about Mike hearn?
I hope you're right.
