Re BTC [...] Everything is going according to schedule, so to speak

It's sure isn't going according to what the Chinese miners thought was the the schedule.
But you're not wrong, so to speak.

Bears like you failed to grab cheap btc and now they are trying to bring down btc price by any means. This article is bullshit. Its author is someone from Mike Hern`s camp. Btc`s growth is unstoppable.

You seem to think bears are the opposite of holders, which they're not.
Real bears will do the opposite of what you think they do -- they *help* you pump the shit out of BTC, feed your mania, and only when your hysterical optimism crescendoes & BTC crests? That's the ideal entry point for shorts.

^Timely, and topical. Much journalisms. Grin

Just the facts, Ma'am. I realize some parvenu douche serial entrepreneur and technologist Andreas M. Pumpendumpolos extolling the virtues of our digital gold is far more newsworthy, but I take the good with the bad Smiley

^WTF was that? Why does the recorder app on my shitty phone have better production values than that ... whatever that is? Had speakers on, soon as that Benny Hill music kicked in at, like +20dB, panicked; tried to close the page, to get that helpful Clippy pop-up "are you sure you want to navigate from this page?" pop-up all the malware sites use.
Technologists! Why not at least put it up on YouTube?

Is there a TL;DR? Stupid woman says stupid things about stupid things?

TL;DR Bitcoin Uncensored hosts face legal action over Perianne Boring interview. Slow news day. Undecided

Bitcoin enthusiasts stick it to The Man by alienating Big Business and needlessly making another enemy. More at 11.

It's finally happened. The good professor has snapped his marbles.

https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/4qxchc/professor_of_computer_science_i_have_no_words/

Didn't realize he's still posting (not so much in here anymore though).

Always felt he was wrong on a number of things in here, stubbornly so unfortunately, but still added the occasional insight, and quite some rigor when it came to modeling (DAE dino graphs?).
Agreed.

It's funny though, that somebody who is the opposite of bitcoin's economical values target audience, and is "extremely sceptical" of it, is arguing to make it into something more of his liking.  Such hubris, much faceplant...

>somebody who is the opposite of bitcoin's economical values target audience
What's "bitcoin's economical values target audience"?
For that matter, what's "economical values"?
Did you mean "economical" as "like economic, but makes people giggle"? (Think using "tragical" in place of "tragic," e.g. "Bitcoin's tankening to $650 a few minutes ago was quite tragical.")

Roughly put, I would say that it is people who like dislike inflationary money. Of course there are other properties of bitcoin that some people might value, but I believe the 21M is the crux.  Please spare me the technical  "but bitcoin will be inflationary x more years" nitpicking.  

As far as economical goes, not everybody lives in an English-speaking country Lambsie, but good for you that you can still giggle about something like that.  

>Roughly put, I would say that it is people who like dislike inflationary money.
So people who don't have a clue about economics, or why the world economy works exclusively on fiat currencies?

>there are other properties of bitcoin that some people might value, but I believe the 21M is the crux.
Feel free to invest in BBQ coin.
Or Beanies, for that matter. The value of both depends on artificial scarcity.

>not everybody lives in an English-speaking country
Sure. And that's why I see it as my noblesse oblige to educate the underprivileged.

P.S. New low hit as I type. How tragical Sad

Crosspost. Because explains our current price predicament Sad

Bitcoin Plunges In Value As Hackers Spook Market

The unpredictable progress of Bitcoin hit another downward spiral as more crooked dealings were revealed.

Bitcoin hit a two-year high of around $775 just a few days ago and then plunged by 25% after a major exchange went offline after an attack by hackers....

http://www.moneyinternational.com/currency/bitcoin-plunges-value-hackers-spook-market/


Doesn't explain shit.

The article is a miss-mash of bullshit piled upon bullshit, and even likely purposefully misaligned connections in terms of timelines, causative effects and creating incorrect associations.

The current price correction likely does not have anything to do with any of the items stated in the article, and bitcoin was likely due for a correction, since the price had shot up from $630 to $705 in the past few days.

Looks like it's shooting back down Sad

Anything above $500 is bullish because it's only a little over a month ago that the price went above $500 for the second time since September 2014.

Exactly! We're probably going into 500s, but I'm OK with that Smiley

start worrying if the price goes below $400 and especially if it stays below $400 for any significant period of time..

Don't try to act like you are some kind of genuine regular person raising your various purported nonsense concerns.

have you been feeding journalists with bad info..... have you taken trolling to the next level?

Your love is fading, I can feel your love fading, Gentlemen, it is fading away from me. Because your touch, your touch has grown cold, as if someone else controls your very soul. (Could it be Nyarlathotep?)

Disheartening.
