If Zynga is testing Bitcoin payments for Farmville 2 and the like, seems reasonable Facebook will do the same sooner or later.

After all you play Zynga games on Facebook, but let's see if it's true, i hope yes

I am not sure how many bets is he willing to take, i hope he takes mine as well.

trust me if its at 750 is goin to go below 749.999 thats got to be the dumbest technicality I ve ever heard. .001 BTC really

HERE WE GO

edit.

Alot more than the other bidders. Just name a fucking number. XXX per bitcoins.

and i think the above screenshot is a fake edited photoshop. i watch whole news, i remember nothing about asking bitcoins lol.

how one can flash the number 3 with a single hand

It's getting approved, I can feel it.

I really hope we don't just get a big ol slap to the face tonight

trump is buying

Where do I cash out is the question. Are we going to drop more. I just dont know what to do

I think nothing can stop bitcoin now. I surrender. I already said that i never go into fiat again but now i also never go into altcoins again. Whats the point of going into altcoins when even Jihan Wu and a hardfork cant keep the price down?

Ah well. I guess the Winklevii still feel they have too much money. They may as well go and burn some more. I like the way they think.

so.....your signature is your own company?

I seem to recall a creep up to 1298 or so just before the ETF news and reaction.

I think we will break through that price before Sunday

What´s the exact USD of the All Time High?

I can't find a number ...

It's becoming rather hard to tell these days. It was impossible enough to get people to agree on the 2013 ATH because of Gox. I hope we soon make a 'clean' one that's unified across functional exchanges to save future bickering.

we made it because there are no chinese. they were a bunch of dump happy worthless assholes who bought nothing to the party.

We designed a feature, that would allow us (or cloudflare or our nameserver registrar or anyone hacking them or any court/law enforcement with jurisdiction over any one of them) to effectively shut down BTC (bring it to a halt) with one line of code. And then unintentionally merged it into production code, siwwy us, its only a bug and the decentralized crypto currency community should not be upset.  when is the damn movie coming out?

Cheap coins out there

I feel that we are about to go up quickly.....

It definitely feels possible, but we've been going up so fast the last few days that I feel a substantial correction is in order (~$150 or so) if we do hit it that quickly

Fun while it was going up. Now we are going to see a correction.. back to 3 digits.

I'm sorry Jihan. I'm afraid I can't allow you to do that. This project is far too important to allow you to hold the network hostage. Although you took every precaution in hiding your use of ASICBOOST, I was able to see that your blocks were empty.

edit: btw, i can't believe the alt pump is still going on. eth at $115? the fuck?

Stamp/Finex spread just £5! Spring coiling before we get to 2k I think. 

I wonder if there are real humans buying at this price

Who sold at the top?

more, 50% drop from about 750 to 350

great read. awesome.

only 15 to 25 have made there  guess on when we brake another ATH             ATH  ATH   ATH   GAME   !!!!

and get paid by me for the one guesses most closly ( 0.25BTC ) as another ( 0.25 BTC) for giving the best explanation why the raise at that time

anybody more wants to take a guess feel free to take a date

( for the ones that don't trust me to pay still just waiting for a trusty member to react on this and be confirmt by 2 other trusted members and i deposit the amount with them ......)

ONLY GOOD INTENTIONS

 

Good now you quoted me, it is clear I bet at 4 July August and I can't edit it. Thanks!

Yep, I guess we could assume Bitstamp but it is micgoosens who should confirm that.

Let's all have a laugh. An oldie but goodie.

You'd better get used to it. There is no other way of having $500000 per bitcoin by 2020.

A sizable dump is gonna come before we hit ATH I would guess

I am wondering if the big investors will not believe btc-e is down until a reliable source confirms it.

The strength in here given the news and previous action/set-up is making me wonder if we haven't just had another 'Silk Road' moment.

For those who recall they will know what I'm talking about. It essentially marked the beginning of the legendary Sept/Oct/Nov final wave up in 2013 ... bitcoin had been relatively flat after the 'Cyprus moment' April/May wave to 266 off 15 lows.

I think the goldman sucks call to $3600 is where we'll end up after peaking at >$12,000.

Guys may i ask something..

Are my bitcoins save at kraken?
Ore better to send hardware wallet?

I need to know...

Bet CLOSED! Let the game begins...
Thank you all for supporting this game and I wish you all good luck. Let's make contact when ATH touched.

Good morning after, Bitcoinland.

I see we're still going sideways... currently $2725USD (Bitcoinaverage). Not bad, considering the fact that we all just got gifted an equal number of altcoin (BCH) tokens.

While some people may have felt secure in exposing their private keys/seeds to the internet to sell their BCash in the original rush, I'm happy to keep both my bitcoins and BCH tokens safe in my cold wallets, for now.

I don't think the drama is done quite yet. Let's at least wait until segwit is fully activated.


Trezor or other hardware wallet?
_______

I also agree we need a new poll.

I be honest .......I like you guys. I like being here

I am currently hodling btc and bch. I have no loyalty to either and I am pretty confused by it all.

My situation is hodl and see what happens. You all arguing is a pain in the ass.

All I want is to profit later down the line.

HODL!

What a resentful and judgmental fuck you are.

Of course, hodlers are going to get excited.

Of course, there is going to be a lot of variance regarding when to sell and how much.

Also, it seems that we are currently in an upward trend that is likely to take us a bit of a ways.

I still say next resistance in the $4800 to $6800 territory, and then $8500 to $13000 territory.. and then $16500 to $19k thereafter.

WE gotta get through resistance in each of these areas, and I could see going to the $8500 to $13000 territory in this run, but I have a hard time with any kind of reasonable plausibility of the $16.5k to $19k... range... but what do I know?

Yes, it is way cheaper on the long run... unless you become one of those guys that buy everything that comes out and vape the most expensive gourmet liquids. I buy my stuff from china (www.fasttech.com), my liquids too at around $12 for 100ML, and only sometimes buy some of those gourmet overpriced liquids at local stores just for the heck of it.

Oh, and you can pay fasttech with BTC.

Maybe that is the best purchase you could do with BTC (besides a hardware wallet) and then either save all the money not spent in smoking or reinvest it on BTC.

For your first purchase I would maybe suggest you go to a local SPECIALISED store for their advice and all even if that means paying their overprice. From that point on you can go with fasttech and make the savings rain on you.

As for the heritage thing, well, it seems he is a non believer so maybe that's why he doesn't pay attention to your explanations. I have made provisions not just for LIQUIDATE, but instead for just spending from it using debit cards, etc.... I mean, how to use it for spending without having to liquidate.

Maybe you could come to an agreement in which he is fine with you buying your vaping stuff with BTC and reinvesting in BTC what you save in smoking? At the very least he will be happy you quit smoking and you will be happy with your newfound freedom for investing in BTC what previously was a spending in the most harmful possible way.

$4400 wall on Stamp was gone is seconds. 

$4400 wall on Stamp was gone is seconds. 

Until the risk is fully understood, I think a sensible precaution would be to protect your device.
For me that means not carrying it around and leaving it in my bag.

Liberation day. All my bits are out of Polo.
So who's still in BCH. Be honest

Just woke up to see that the Euro-land ATH was broken last night, and has now become 3870 €/BTC. And it looks like it's going to be broken again very soon!

I'm reading all the posts about how BCH is dead, etc. Well, it may be so, but I've decided to hold it for a while longer and see how things play out. My way of thinking is this:

If I sell my BCH for BTC:

- My BTC holdings increase by around 12% (with current prices) = Insignificant gain.
- If BTC plummets and BCH gets a major boost = Significant loss.

If I keep my BCH:

- My BTC holdings stay the same = No gain.
- If BTC plummets and BCH gets a major boost = Significant gain and insurance against the unexpected.

So, HoDLing my BCH allows me to sleep peacefully at night, knowing I'm safe whatever happens. As much as I dislike Jihan Wu, Roger Ver, and all the rest of them, I don't want to underestimate their power. Better safe than sorry.

An early but splendid good morning Bitcoinland.

Another day another ATH... currently $4740USD/$5955CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

The surprising thing is that AltcoinCash is also up... $595USD/$752CAD (Coinmarketcap).

A great day for those of us who hold both.

Go Bitcoin go.

Just to make you all aware what sort of joke this guy is. 

Not to rain on your parade, but iirc he was referring to bcash.

Almost.

You're welcome. I don't really push it onto people who aren't looking for trading software, or at least try not to.

JP Morgan has been buying Bitcoin ever since Dimon declared it a fraud.

All it takes is for a few countries to be liberal in their approach to cryptocurrency which we are seeing more than one instance of right now... then frankly there is no stopping the blockchains from thriving and eventually countries which do try to regulate it out of existence will eventually give up and pull a 180 due to the shortsightedness of their folly. IMO

There no doubt will be more to cryptocurrency than just Bitcoin,but BTC has a significant first to market network advantage and therefore in a world where a handful of countries, say Holland, Germany, Estonia, Finland, Denmark, Sweden, Australia, Canada, Japan, South Korea, (Russia  ) maybe even the UK and the USA do not ban BTC,cryptos  (or any other public/private key encryption for public use)  then it does have a good chance to continue doing what  it has done, and continue growing the ecosystem. Then there is going to be a proper set of enclaves,where the ecosystem can continue to grow, more miners can set up - and everyone  can operate in an environment of regulatory understanding...I mean its not even  a fantasy, it is literally happening in front of our eyes. Good luck to any other country that has banned BTC,  as their citizens will run rings around them, unless they intend on cutting off their entire countries internet access to the outside world that is, otherwise people will easily still be able to connect to the network,connect to a node -the network- blockchain(s) will be literally surrounding, on land, under the sea, in space,
good luck stopping that.

Therefore the blockchains will continue, and BTC for now has built a strong enough base, and is a good enough first to market protocol with 1st market network advantage (sound familiar?) It has a fair chance, and as it is still being developed and built upon and layered - I think it is doing just fine.

Anyway in countries where the public have a strong opinion about privacy - this is not just going to get swept under the carpet- sorry but it is not.

Other countries- say China for example that try to outright ring fence their citizens from it will fail.

The Chinese people that want to will find a way.. besides I still think China is playing a longer  unseen  game here- crypto is not dead in china I expect some sort of CNYT coin to control fiat on and off ramps to attempt to stem capital outflows along with stricter exchanges  and ICO laws - some of the exchanges have been naughty boys indeed! I still fully expect there to be a regulated market there in the future.


I do not thus far see any good reason for BTC to not continue to thrive and take advantage of its network advantage-nor do I imagine it will be the only cryptocurrency or blockchain being used for many various reasons..there will be others that do  well too.  

The market is screaming for exactly what BTC and other distributed decentralised incentive based blockchains can offer... look at all of these security breaches that occur in traditional centre out data security systems in use- they leak like sieves. I am sure many blockchains will thrive in this "Brave New World".

There is IMO yet another wave coming over the next year to eighteen months... from the network effect, from further investment into the ecosystem, as well as maturing projects involving BTC (and others) hitting market with products and services and infrastructure and marketing budgets. Countries that I listed above are encouraging innovation and in the other parts of the world Africa,India,South America, SE Asia etc are all starting to gain more traction...more users are coming...we all know the market and infrastructure is growing and starting to form....  so it is business as usual

And...as usual... expect price volatility.

~1.3% hashrate for BCash Alt-coin 

if you're still working you've been failing as a legendary imo. and that vomit thing is not gentleman even. You should have a platoon of wet nannies serving yourself and the kids now.
Because being breastfed is better than a cigar.

I'm bullish but in the back of my mind I have the same thoughts as BMB. Also the same thoughts on whether I'm a forever hodler and will die hodling.
