If this has happened it may have more effect on btc price rise than the impending halving....
it would have already because of insider-trading. i don´t think it is happening anytime soon.
I can't figure out (in my pea-brain) why anyone would make an ETF out of bitcoin. Why not just buy bitcoin? Then again, derivatives exist for everything, right? I'm just ignorant.

Mempool and price could reach parity soon.

Absolutely right, we're going down. Hard. The reason for the drop is this:

What's funny is that Brian Armstrong is probably expecting some deus ex machina of a developer to save bitcoin.

Long term, we need to form a new team to work on the bitcoin protocol. A team that is welcoming of new developers to the community, willing to make reasonable trade offs, and a team that will help the protocol continue to scale. Youll be hearing more about this over the next month or two.
Or he's just planning on competing with blockstream when it comes to influencing bitcoin core's roadmap. If the price is falling because if this, I think that people are taking him too seriously. The problems he talk about have existed within the bitcoin space for a long time, the recent block size drama is made to look serious by unnecessary reactions like this.
I'm just your "average Joe", and me and all of my average Joe friends, and all of the rest of the average Joe's out there are not going to use bitcoin if it takes more than ten minutes for a transaction and high fees will soon price alot of people out. Those are the cold hard facts. You can kiss the fabled "mainstream adoption" goodbye.
Nope, these attacks are not net positive.
How many people join bitcoin in a day? 5000-6000 tops?
Well, by doing an attack this scale probably worth millions of $$ to do, actually they are donating that money away to miners and it benefits existing users more than what we would lose over that 5000 people not joining.
So the bottom line: Attacking the bitcoin network is always a net loss for the attacker and a net win for the network.
Not to mention it helps developers give them new ideas to protect the network with, which can be used for defense against future larger scale attacks.

Could they say "core" a few more times.

"Market at start of wave 3 of (3) of primary 3 of cycle III"
Translation: Strongest wave, of the strongest wave, of the strongest wave, of the strongest wave.
The Master left because the time for daytrading is over. This is it. This is what we've all been waiting for.

I think everyone knows which these are by now.
Well, maybe this is a sign that reason is returning,a nd people are being allowed to fight it out with facts. My guess is that the possibility that Blockstream/Core can't hide behind Censorship is scaring some people.
And who are the people behind Blockstream?
Reid Hoffman / Co-Founder of LinkedIn
Vinod Khosla / Founder of Sun Microsystems
Eric Schmidt / Google
Jerry Yang / Yahoo Founder
also.. Nicolas Berggruen, Crypto Currency Partners, Future\Perfect Ventures, Danny Hillis, Max Levchin, Mosaic Ventures, Ray Ozzie, Ribbit Capital... and others.
There are big corporate interests behind both Blockstream and some of the companies that support Classic.
WHO CARES PEOPLE.
I'm sick of these forum idiots and conspiracy theories that
think there's some grand plan to "infiltrate Bitcoin by the banksters" etc...
Yes conspiracies are sometimes real but not everything
is a conspiracy.
The world is usually much simpler than that. Everyone is out for
themselves to make a buck. That's how business works.
In fact, pretty much everyone in the world is concerned
with their own agenda.
Blockstream is NO DIFFERENT in that regard. They
want to "scale" Bitcoin THEIR WAY that suits their
interests.
I really don't understand why some people can't
get that through their head.
The lions just magically disappear.
Hey,
Since a couple of minutes, BTC seems to go back to $400.
How far will it go ?
