If you're talking about solo.ckpool.org, that's a solo pool so the entire premise is that each miner mines individually for themselves, the pool just facilitates the logistics.

Playing Black jack sounds much better than the odds being described above - hence likely the reason that hardly anyone mines solo unless they have enough hashpower to hit on a weekly or maybe monthly basis or so.. which probably would cost quite a bit of money.  I suppose if you cannot generate enough hashpower to attempt to hit close to 10--12 times per year, then likely you would have to join a pool.  This post likely demonstrates part of the reason that I am not a miner.

Centralised BS. The complete opposite of Bitcoin!

Since you didn't bother to mention what country you were referring to I will do the same.
(see how easy it is to manipulate with graphs and numbers).

Changed my mind, my graph is for Sweden, I assume yours is for the UK since that's where LFC lives.

They're not touching so that doesn't really count as a gay Christmas card.

Basically, in US, if the family has $1mil in ret funds

People seem to get more stupid than i thought, but in the end i think Einstein was correct with his assumption that the only thing bigger then the universe is the stupidity of mankind 

Sadly, I also feel the same. It would have been so much better for him to be a man about it and admit defeat. But instead of facing the facts, he seems to be moving the goalposts on every failure. OK, he may now be selling fewer PlanB hats, but that's his own problem. Bitcoin is fully alive and kicking last time I checked.

For me, the best "model" is the White Paper itself. Halving = supply reduction by half / 4-year period. That's enough for me to know for a fact that "it's going up forever, Laura!" That's a qualitative assessment that's good enough for me. As for quantitative, short-term, Crystal Ball^TM predictive models, I'll leave those to the resident magicians, purely for amusement purposes, with the occasional collateral damage (read: mindrust events caused by masterluc).

One thing that I've always wondered though: with the 18650 cell being cylindrical, won't there be wasted space between them in the pack? Wouldn't it be better to design rectangular-shaped cells, so that they are stacked more efficiently in the pack?

Wow amazing love you bro…10/10!!!

But I think I need my laptop to wear it because I tried from my phone (iPhone) and it’s coming with white background.

(Btw why iPhone doesn’t support pngs or transparent backgrounds overall?).

It seems that at some point there will be an adequate phone wallet with both advanced (to get your private keys) and basic functionality (for noobs).
I looked into wallets and some are gaining more and more functions lately and seem on the way to a more polished product.
Maybe a good phone wallet is going to be a solution.

Moreover, considering that in those 11 years that you have been here, you have not deigned to put an avatar, then such a trifle should not worry you much.

BTW, is it just me, or is reddit really so messed up and poorly designed for browsing posts? I just hate it every time I visit. I find it hard to navigate...

Thanks. Do you have any experience with any of them?
