I don't know what you guys are smoking but any type of economic activity is good for a currency. It doesn't matter if it's the girl scouts or ransomware. I don't believe the ransomware market is anywhere near that big though. I'd be surprised if it was 1/10th of that.

Well for one thing i don't think you understood what i was trying to say.
I made an observation not a judgment.
I never DID say Ransomware market activity is bad.
So no offense but you are the one smoking something not me.

I find this funny because no matter how intensely hardcore i bend over backwards to lay out a verbose rant
spelling out every little bit in excruciating mind bending detail i still get utterly misunderstood completely.

Also I pulled my numbers on the market activity of Ransomware via the news website Neowin.net.
Who i believe gets the estimates from AV manufacturers like Kaspersky etc.
Feel free to Google it though.

I do find it amusing how you all took a small tiny part of the grander larger point i was trying to make
and gone off on a tangent railing on and on about an irrelevant point unrelated to the topic.
It's like sliding in a keyword that sets off alarms and all of sudden the hounds are let loose.

I was talking about the end of month dumping i have postulated many times on the forum over the last few years.
And that the Ransomware coders collecting Bitcoin revenue are simply a part of the whole entire economy.
A large collection of people made up of anyone & everyone.

When i posted here last night i seen a giant pile of dumping of BTC on BTCe
so i brought up my theory to say hey.. that it explains it
BUT.. we are STILL going up.. bit by bit gradually.
I also just checked right now and i am right as always.
The dumping stopped and the price is rebounding fairly quick.
And i am fairly certain it will keep doing that with maybe some more bursts of dumping.
Because although the overall price of Bitcoin is going up and up there is still people out there that need to dump.
My point that was 100% ignored completely was..

That not everyone out there is in the position of sitting on their Bitcoin indefinitely..
There -ARE- people who have bills to pay or people who simply want the money.
Maybe try and reread what i actually said if you guys want to argue with me ?
Then at least we can be arguing about the same fucking thing Cheesy

I hoped my point was crystal clear and i was just gonna hit submit but.. uhhhhh i fucking doubt it Roll Eyes

Point ? ..the price is going up on Bitcoin.
And this is tied to Altcoins being dumped because of the speculation that "the halving" will cause BTC to rise.
Which i already said i personally think it's a self fulfilling prophecy at work by you all.
EDIT: and not just because of ALT's dumping but people buying just because..

Generally speaking i have a hard time taking other peoples "market analysis" opinions
when they fail miserably on a consistent basis to address or understand what is being said by someone.
And as usual i always feel compelled to say everything here repeatedly in different ways
Which is EXACTLY why i always have long comments.. I am talking to people who are off in their own little world.

It's not about judgment or agreeing with someone.
It's about understanding what is said and what is going on around you.
I would never skip through reading 1 line of a guys rant then argue on with him (which is what most of you do to me)
Nor would i rail on and on 100% ignoring the guys point and if i did not get it i would simply ask.
