It's not a scam, just a gamble/experiment that didn't launch so well. I also got completely rekt trying to time the bottom of this. Hold tight, the project has a solid use case and will take off in the future.

Former Bitcoin Core developer Peter Todd faces rape allegations, refutes with defamation suit

In a recent turn of events, Peter Todd, a former Bitcoin Core developer and cryptography consultant, filed a defamation case against ‘isis agora lovecruft’, who had earlier accused him of rape and sexual assault.

No comment. Roll Eyes

I will comment. Yet another jealous feminist cunt made a false accusation against an innocent man. Do some research and you will see she is mentally disturbed. Avoid women, gentlemen, they are all sick in the head.

Anyone know if there is any wallet support planned for this coin? To move coins off the exchange.

Well, Rick is off jet-setting around the globe, somewhere, to attend some fancy event, and I'm left home alone this weekend.

Thinking of consuming 7mg of dried mushrooms and talking to Jah and The Flying Spaghetti Monster tonight.

What could possibly go wrong ?

7 milligrams? That won't do anything. I like to indulge now and then with about 0.25g dried. Anything less and I can't feel it.

Those who managed to buy heavily into the IEO dumped it all on the market for instant profit. At least the price is back down same as was asked in the IEO, so those of us who believe in this project can have a second chance now.

Wauw Roach, you are really a broken man..
But you are talking nonsense right now. It's very superficial that you put women in 1 corner and I don't know what the point is you want to make? Hoping that everyone will follow you into the lonely life? Good luck. I am wondering what happened to you? You talk about women leaving their men after many years just because they get bored, guess what, a relationship is a verb and if some men think that we will just stick around no matter what then they are lazy men and they should blame themselves. (Same for women who doesn't give their man any more attention) And what if they start cheating on their wives? We should also stick around he? But in your opinion it looks like men are the perfect creatures in a relationship OR you just think that men can do whatever they want and women not? Because don't blame us and check your sources again. Men fuck up more then women but I try to find someone who seems reliable, but that's never a certainty and that is LIFE. Should I hate all men now? I have better things to do in my life than always being negative. Maybe you should think the same, because the only one who loses are you in this game with this attitude. To be honest, people like you really scares me (Read: Elliot Rodger) and on the other side I am sorry for you people (Read: Mysogyny). I can not imagine that you dated many girls (or many types of girls) because I know there are bad girls but believe me, even worse men but it's up to you to find the good ones.



"Broken man", accusations of misogyny, incel shaming... The feminine imperative has programmed you well.

What does everybody think will happen to BCH & BCHSV?

Assuming (as we all think) ‘our’ original bitcoin remains the number one, what will happen to the above mentioned shit coin’s in the mid to long term?



They will collectively hover around the 0.1 ratio as a warning that if scaling is not improved in time for the next adoption wave, they are ready and waiting to take over.

I'm in Bitcoin more than just for profit. What if what they say about LN trending towards centralization (and therefore government interference and control) comes true? What if BCH does live up to its promise of achieving massive on-chain scalability with low fees within the next few years? These are possibilities I take into account. I used to be a hard core maximalist, but I have changed my stance. It's much more than just bitcoin now, a whole industry is forming. I believe ICOs do have value. They offer anyone in the world a chance to invest in projects they believe in. I don't collect tokens, but there are many projects I respect and are trying to improve the world.

Really? Very simple 4 question litmus test:

1) Expain to me, what makes bitcoin decentralized?

2) Why did Segwit 2.0 attack fail on bitcoin?

3) Lightning network, convince me how it is contrary to what you earlier said, free from government interference - explanation? Take a stab, play devils advocate. (tip: talk routing)

4) Why is it, even since 2013, the hundreds of most 'established' altcoins after years, are not nearly as secure nor decentralized as bitcoin?

Simple four questions.



Your point seems to be that first mover advantage is everything. I agree, when comparing Bitcoin to alt coins. But I don't consider forks of Bitcoin as alt coins. I see them as different implementations trying to reach the same goal.

I have no idea if LN will be free of goverment interference or not. Maybe some countries will force all Bitcoin transactions through government controlled nodes and sending freely on chain would be illegal (enforced by deep packet inspection). I don't think anyone really knows how LN will end up. I hold Bitcoin forks to hedge against the possibility of LN becoming a failure.

some of the big block arguments resonate with me.

Retard

The typical ad hominem response I was expecting. It just proves my point about group think.

Seeing as I am a leftie, I will make it more PC for you.  Differently abled.

Retard or retarded is much better and more descriptive about what is really meant.

I'm retarded for keeping an open mind?

Your position is not an open mind, even if you are trying to present the position as such.. largely for the reasons that I already outlined.. and there may even be some other reasons.. but does not seem necessary to go down that path because it remains your burden to back up your bullshit, nonsense, retarded, position with facts and logic rather than my burden to show why you seem to be lacking (assuming that you really mean what you say rather than either being a paid shill, alt coin pumper or a disingenuine troll).

I'm keeping my mind open about which strategy is best for Bitcoin in the long term, in terms of a complex mix of decentralization and scalability. I think that it is too early to say for certain, especially since I do not have a deep understanding of the Bitcoin codebase. For example, I couldn't explain to you right now exactly how SegWit works. So for this reason I keep all forks instead of making a guess or going along with the majority.

Yeah, not only do you not understand the codebase (as you admit), you also don't seem to understand what differentiates bitcoin from other projects, whether those are forks or altcoins or ICOs or other purported imitator wannabes that fall quite short of the bitcoin mark.. think about sound money and network effects of bitcoin rather than getting caught up on dumb-ass and mostly irrelevant supposed distinctions based on code differences.

The crypto scene is the most "group think" thing I have ever encountered. Most of it stems from reddit, which is an easy-to-manipulate hive mind. There are even busineses that attempt to sway opinion using paid shills.

LOL, if you hang out here long enough, it will become abundantly clear that there is a multitude of alternative and conflicting opinions expressed here. I mean look at r0ach. A good portion of his posts are definitely not popular, yet a good portion of his posts remain. The moderation on Bitcointalk is actually quite light compared to reddit. Both the btc and Bitcoin thread there appear to be echo chambers.

The only thing I notice here is that everyone seems to hate BCH with a passion. It's understandable. If only there were one single definite strategy for scaling Bitcoin and maintaining decentralization, and therefore no need for multiple competing implementations. Then people wouldn't feel like they have to pick sides and defend their choices like their future depended on it.

No you are retarded due to your failure to properly understand the trilemma.  And if you don't know what that means, GTFO this isn't a noob thread.  

I'm no noob, check my join date. The fact that there is even a trilemma to understand suggests there are valid arguments to be made from different sides. I have spent much time doing my own investigation and came to the conclusion that I don't have enough information to predict with absolute certainty the best path forward in the long term, so I choose to keep all forks. I am a long term holder with no intention to ever sell my coins.

I really despise the term "group think." Has it ever occurred to you that perhaps the reason the most popular opinion is popular is because it is the most compelling? Although it is true that sometimes the most popular opinion is dead wrong, it doesn't mean that every popular opinion is dead wrong and that I should only accept "alternate" theories. Every argument has to stand on its own merits.

I could not really bring myself to sell my BTG - and maybe that was a bit short-sighted - so I still hold all my BTG.

My excuse that I was hoping for more than 3%.. and I think that there was a pump period that they bounced between 3% and 5%, but I recall that I had not yet split my coins (meaning my BTG) during that period.. and I think after I split my BTG, they have not gone above 2% for any significant period of time.. .so mine just sit there and seem mostly irrelevant at less than 1%.... Doesn't matter a whole hell-of-a lot to me, if they go to zero before I take selling action, if I do decide to, some day.

I still have my forked BTG, as well as my BCH, and soon BSV also, and I have no intention to sell any of them. I like the idea of keeping an equal stake on all forks. Bitcoin forks get trashed in here, and I think it is ignorant group think. This is a long game, and may the best chain win. I believe small blocks and second layers are the way forward, but I keep an open mind and some of the big block arguments resonate with me.

Time to drop a truth bomb in here. Never tell any woman how much crypto you have. They do not love you, they love what you can do for them. If they think you have money, they will feel entitled to it.

$6000 seems to be holding a little too falsely to me. Got to be manipulation holding us arund this range, no?
The price fell all too easily from $8500 to $5800 but recovered to above $6000 (just about) but we’re holding here by literally $5 - $100, why?

My conspiracy driven mind tells me we’re being played by whales who are still accumulating at these prices before we begin the next bull run.

It just seems so artificial clinging onto $6000 for dear life & not showing any sogns of crashing significantly below it or pulling away & going up.

Bigger forces at play here, this is not just ‘the market’.

This is my opinion, and has always been. The game is rigged and the only winning move is to not play, ie. HODL.

Bitcoin will become [a/the] major global currency, and everyone knows it (especially the haters).

Is Bitcoin dead? Because somebody on reddit just told me so. Apparently it is as good as dead already and it is currently being phased out by superior crypto 2.0 coins using block-lettuce (TM) technology.
