There is a couple of things wrong with this chart. First, scale... the BTC "penis" should be ~30x longer than ETH. It obviously isn't. Also BTC volume seems to be overstated by one or two orders of magnitude. Perhaps they included change amounts, not sure. More realistic numbers I've seen are around $5 billion per day or ~$60k per second.

You’re so smart. Big fan. I love it when you talk dirty.

Elwar is MIA.., again.. not the first time that he has pulled this kind of extended MIA.....

I actually got a little worried earlier today - 5 buddies in a row - and no Jay, Juan or Gee.
Must be down for maintenance and bug fixes, I thought to myself.

Looking good Jay. The human C-bots are also MIA today. So peaceful.
Still have lightfoot and philipma to bash on, so I’m OK.

Usually, I do not miss more than 3 days in a row.. but surely there have been times when I had not been able to post very much within a week or two... just the nature of my life .. both in terms of availability and non-availability as a bot wannabe.

Many of us might well know that if you want to receive credit for activity points, you have to have at least one post per activity period (which is a 14-day period - something like Wednesday to Wednesday(two weeks later)), so some of us have found out that if you have only one or so posts in an activity period, but you end up deleting that post, you will lose all of your points for that activity period.. and even sometimes end up going down in rank.. believe it or not that some members ONLY found out when they actually deleted their posts.. also if a mod or admin deletes your posts, a similar result could happen.

Since I registered on the forum, I ONLY have about 4 activity periods in which I did not receive any points, and of course, the living on of any bot likely has some human element, even though there is some Turing completeness that could be incorporated into such a bot (or bot wannabe). There is a reason that you do not see me spouting out in too many contexts regarding immortality - even though there are surely some ways that bitcoin does create some possibilities to set up systems for such time travel - but I still get some senses that there needs to be some human intervention in order that matters do not get too screwed up or off course from some of the outlines of the original intentions.. In that sense, it seems that Satoshi had created something that still retains a lot of his original intentions.. even though some folks proclaim that not too many lines of the original code are completely intact.. but that does not mean that those subsequently working on the code had not been largely following quite a bit of various aspects of Satoshi's original visions - despite some claims of the bitcoin naysayers, no coiners, fence sitters and/or shitcoiners usually.

The BTC accumulators and the HODLers among us are surely in a ongoingly great position, with options as long as we can recognize the value of BTC and at least accumulate/HODL some reasonable and meaningful amount.. and that amount may well not have to even be very much, relatively speaking, the more time that we have to work out the details (and hopefully not screw things up too badly)..
