 But this bear market -- the longest one ever -- threatens that as well.

It's not the longest. In 2011 there was a much longer period.

So there's no mining with NXT. Who keeps the computer making transactions online, and why ?  How are the transactions processed ? And I understand they are much faster than bitcoin ?

Sorry for the insults addressed to you. I mean I never saw you insult anyone, so I don't think it's appropriate to be insulted but probably some persons here can't debate intelligently so they have to resort to what they know best.

So the answer is: don't trade based on that alone. If you're interested, find some online resource (or probably better: a book) on TA, and you'll probably find moving averages as lines of resistance/support in general, and the the SMA200 in particular covered. But there is no single "magic" indicator signal you can slavically follow. If there would be such an obvious one, it would be broken through use and become unprofitable in no time.

Thanks. I use multiple signals and macd.

That would for example be breaking the daily SMA200 conclusively, and almost certainly breaking the previous 680 top.

Hello,

Is this link ok for tracking SMA200 ? And what do you mean breaking ? Crossing above the current price ? Or what ?

It's colder in Canada, so it's easier to open mining facilities. Lots of cold air for free.

I answered this some 6,223,678,221 pages ago on this thread.  "Success" will be when bitcoin (or crypto) gets used by a large number of people because it is cheaper/faster/safer/easier/whatever than the alternatives.  Not because one has a BTC stash to burn, not to support the cause, not to evade taxes or make illegal payments, not because it is hip, not to speculate with, not out of curiosity, etc.

That's a pretty reasonable point of view. It's just that with this approach one could never profit from early investments in startups and unverified ideas.

Thanks.

Sent her a PM as well. If she has email notification on, maybe she'll reply. If not, was worth a try.

Thank you for your offer and generosity. And post here if you managed to find her so others can donate too.

if gox came back, it would likely be the best exchange out there. It would have a point to prove.

This is what everyone is hoping.

I would support the idea of a rehab of mt gox, not only so I could get some money invested back (I don't trust I would get much otherwise) but to support the chance of a new type of btc exchange creation. That is, if this new Gox 2.0 is indeed a new type of btc exchange, a transparent and very trustable exchange led by experts and no noname un-knowledgeable administrators.

A liquidation would return to the clients some amount X that they can invest any way they like, including in MtGOX 2.0 if they want to.  The Sunlot plan would return them less than X and force them to invest the remainder in MtGOX 2.0, with no option to get out.  I still don't see how this can be better than that.

I'm guessing with the Sunlot plan, the clients have a small chance to get back their entire account. At least in a long time. And that is probably better than getting back only 20% or less (zero according to some here)

This save gox campaign was a joke.  Offering 1 BTC?  I don't know who is more foolish, the people trying to make a name for themselves with this ridiculous offer, or the idiots who believed this scenario was possible...


Why do you care ? Since people like Jr65 say the clients will get zero coins anyway. So where's the risk ? It can't be any worse than zero, no ? But at least there's a chance with the Save Gox campaign.

It seems the clients have to choose between the liquidator selling all the coins with 10 $ per coin and the clients getting zero / and the chance that some investors restore Gox and maybe the clients will get their money back, 20% now and the rest in 5 years.

Re: 200k Gox Coins in the Pipeline

Dude, are you paying any attention? Wake up! The coins are going to be liquidated privately! No Japanese Bankruptcy Liquidator, who doesn't even know what BTC is, will take the time to spread sell orders over time at public exchanges.

The continuing notion, on this forum, that a Japanese Bankruptcy Court has some inherent sense of fairness is just plain absurd. Bankruptcy is never fair!

So all the courts are unfair and nobody ever was served justice through a court of law, and that's just how it is, no ? Because life is unfair and everyone is out to screw you, because it's a dog eat dog world, and we haven't made any progress in the last 100 years.

It seems to me like this whole thing, as it relates to people who had fiat or coins in gox, comes down to:

Choice #1:
Support this and get 23% of what you had, but not be able to move it out of gox for 1 year.
You can get paid back for the rest of the loss over time if this exchange does well.

Choice #2:
Don't support this, liquidation will happen.  You will get (at current exchange rates) about 27.5% of what you had.
Lawyers fees and any other debts gox had that we don't' know about could reduce the 27.5% number..




Or the choice nr 3, the option which most here will say it will happen :
 Mark Karpeles will pay himself most of the money because corruption and bla bla, the lawyers will get most of the money because bla bla... , the liquidator will sell all 200k btc with 10 $ per btc to an acquaintance of his because corruption bla bla... and of course the users will get zero, or maybe some pennies.  So... what to choose ?

There gone.

How are "there" gone if they just found 200k bitcoins ? How do you know that under pressure they'll not "find" another 200k ?

And to the guy above with the " In real capitalism the strong hands take over after the weak hands fail. "  what are the strong hands that took over after mt gox ? What better exchanges emerged after  ? None, zero, nada. We need much more exchanges than those 2 in Europe.

And if Gox is bought by some knowledgeable people it will be just like a new exchange, it won't have anything to do with the old management, so you all don't have to be so afraid.

Owning a BTC in Gox would be like having bought a product and payed upfront, you simply will never receive the product or your money.

Yes but the liquidator and judge's role is to impart justice and set things right. How is wasting the btc holders money, right ?
