I used the right word. I've looked this up before. Only a few months ago because I just to make sure I was doing it right. Then refers to time, than refers to consequence.

If it doesn't look like bitcoin is rallying, than zoom in and out until it does.

I went to the store, then I went home.

Are you willing to bet your dick on that?

Well no... maybe I misunderstood what I purposely went out of my way to make sure I learned...

Fucking hell. The website that I read, I really did it was highlighted purple in google search, https://www.wikihow.com/Use-Than-and-Then didn't have any examples like  "If *, then *".

But here it is here. http://grammarist.com/usage/than-then/ "If this is the case, then it exists alongside a surprisingly resilient sense of class belonging."

You caught me. Yonton is my other account. He and I are one and the same.

Fucking grammar, how is this shit just so easy for everyone else? How do you all just know this sort of thing like it's so obvious and easy? Angry

Lol, better than then. Smiley


You gotta be pretty confident to bet your dick, or just be an attention whore.

The fact of the matter is that you should not be betting your dick, unless it just does not work anyhow.. but it seems to be amongst the most valuable of assets.... don't they say that one of the most important things that you can have is your health, which is kind of a factor of time and years to live, and gosh, I would think that you would want to have your dick for such time, if you have time that is available, then it should be quality time..  which in sum, means using your dick to the extent feasible.  Perhaps, I am too sentimental?

We do hear about some guys who agree to some kind of treatment (such as prostate cancer) or other kinds of drug treatments that take away libido, but then we have other guys who take viagra to off-set those other drugs.  It is difficult to proclaim to know the answers for other people, and I do understand diminishing hormones that comes with age too, and surely some guys might not be wanting to use their dicks no more...

Anyhow, my point is perhaps moderation, and don't be betting your dick, because none of us know.



Lol, Age does funny things to your priorities. Smiley

By the way, I don't need $300k to be happy, and I probably could be happy with $6k.. or even $2k, yet I have a decent amount of confidence that bitcoin is going to continue to appreciate in terms of price, so we have a certain great investment and icing on the cake for any price appreciation that comes from here.... Gosh, anything approaching $300k, and I might not know what to do with that much wealth.  hahahahahahaha.. but I would probably figure out something.. perhaps helicopter lessons, though I might prefer a chauffer (private pilot) rather than to end up killing myself because I don't know how to fly my (currently hypothetical) helicopter properly.

$75k would be sweet, I'd say 5 years is possible.

What should I buy, the trezor https://amzn.to/2NdhnKE or save some money and get this keypay wallet https://amzn.to/2ulIMmQ ?

Have you considered the minimalist Digital Bitbox. Without inbuild screen, looks like a ordinary usb stick.

................BTC is really only meant to be used  as a store of value and to transact with large sums of value. So scaling is not necessary. The wealthy do not mind paying the high transaction fees to move large sums of value around. Also, according to his arguments, the wealthy elite don't want some platform that is going to constantly be changing. They would prefer something that is immutable and demonstrated to be secure. When changes are constantly introduced, it is possible to have some insecure vulnerability be introduced and have some black hat exploit it..................
Thats more or less how i see it. Do away with the banks but use preloaded visa, mastercard cards, topped up once a month or whenever desired from your own bitcoin bank. Use existing infrastructure and scaling issues done away with in in instant.
Most likely it will work out like this by default anyway as inflation intensifies and more people store wealth on deflationary bitcoin.

Monero is the only coin I hold (for obvious reasons) and I don't think there is anyone left that feels that is a shitcoin.

People with a load of money don’t tend to brag about it, they’d rather be discrete. Nobody of any real means wants others to know their personal wealth.

I’m pretty confident of that btw.

As if those with a lot of wealth can actually prevent anyone from finding out. Delusion much.


Still, your idea of decentralized forum will never work.

People will be abusing it to hell. What if CP lovers be the majority there? Hard/Centralized moderation is the only choice.

You seem as usual to not comprehend anything that Shelby designs and writes about.

The entire point is decentralized moderation. That means you can select mtwerp to be your moderator if you want and he can hard delete everything that you will ever see. But others can still find the content if they wish to choose a different filter of the blockchain data.

As for spam, that is simple. You spend something to post. Small enough that you don’t care, but large enough that spammers do care. And besides, if you are given the tokens to spend with for free, and those tokens are appreciating in value, then you are not spending anything. But the spammers will not be able to get those tokens for free, because they are not real people. But if you prefer to remain an anonymous little shit poster, then yeah you’ll need to buy some tokens. Might cost you 10 cents a month. Don’t know if you can afford that though?


then you could figure out how much trolling you would allow before you took some actions and whether flaunting a previous ban would be good for your forum?  Oh, that's o.k.. just let banned accounts come back and do whatever the fuck they want.     Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

You cannot understand anything Shelby designs or writes about. You continue to make technological and economics errors every time you reply to anything he has proposed or written about. IOW, Ignore (which is precisely what a decentralized moderation scheme enables).

I put him on ignore because he quoted and responded to our resident troll too much.

So you’d also cut your dick off because someone pointed at you and yelled rape? God misplaced the discernment module when he conceived you.


If someone wants to use cryptocurrency as a means to handle everyday expenses, then he recommends people just use one of the multitudes of altcoins available.

He tells me (via Crypto.cat) that your summary is accurate although lacking details such as the fact that Satoshi miners have no choice but to defend against some other miners using the booty to finance double-spend attacks. And Core is one of those altcoins you mention which he stated can be used as a checkbook, but which should be differentiated from hodling large value in which security is the paramount concern. And there is the post he made where he explained the technical reasons that all of LN (that remains when it fully centralizes as it must) can eventually be done on the real Bitcoin as well without the Core cruft added.


Certainly, I take any posts and posters with a BIG ass grain of salt

Yup that is quite evident. Everything goes in one ear and flies out the other, nothing stuck inside to be worse for the wear and tear on actual thinking.

(I'm still not convinced there is except to those who are exceptionally paranoid[not airheads like most of us in this thread])

FTFY.

IOW, the SegWit booty donations are not a low probability outcome. More like virtually guaranteed. We just have to wait for the booty to grow into the millions of BTC.

This is a good case of how those with lower IQs are unable to differentiate their peers with higher scores. Hence why every tenth person is "a genius" according to the general public.


Well Shelby admitted that. How would you define genius?

Your statement implies a claim that your IQ is high, but your analysis of the future of the US stock market lacks insight into the coming dollar short vortex which Shelby has written about.

What is the virtue of genius if you lack the resolve to feed your brain with all available data? What is the virtue of genius if you waste it in the W.O. thread of airheads.

And what “good case” have you proven? Data? Or did you just pull that out of your pompous, self-important asshole?

I understand his desire not to want to rewrite the same arguments over and over again but couldn't he avoid invoking the ire of the mods by simply making a nice blog and linking to the relevant articles?  

WTF? So you get to discuss and he has to relegate himself to non-interactive communication because why? Because airheads prefer a forum that is an echo chamber. No the problem is that Shelby needs to go to a forum of his peers that does not exist. His peers being those “non-geniuses” who dig deep into technology. As he has been doing with @keean:

https://github.com/keean/zenscript/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+sort%3Aupdated-desc

Two peas in a pod over there. And most of you will not understand any of it.


I never suspected there would be a transaction capacity issue. Then I came to the conclusion that it was a governance issue and the blocksize thing was just a symptom.

And you continue to make mistakes in your analysis, because you do not understand economics.
I would tell you to read @anunymint’s posts because he recently explained everything, but all the effort is nuked.
So relax, mtwerp protected your blissful ignorance and high IQ genius echo chamber.
