Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[Searing]

we have the power to make the world what we want it to be and we should use that power.

Tell us why you are better off because the dodo and the passenger pigeon are extinct. Actually on second thought, don’t.  

It is impracticable as well as impossible to keep every species that ever existed or will exist alive, that is just a fact. That was not even remotely my point, I shouldn't have to tell you my point if you reread my post and comprehend it.

The whole argument is a fallacy, it doesn't matter if its man made or not. we have the power to make the world what we want it to be and we should use that power. It's natural for species to become extinct, should we not do anything and become extinct because its natural? Terraforming the world is a natural advance of any civilization if it wants to survive, it is no different than protecting that world from space born objects.

As an argument this picture makes a good case...1 species vs billions of species..some days I buy this argument more than others

You're jumping to a lot of conclusions based on a photo.

Geeze you nailed me. Gato negro.

I've always had a soft spot for black cats. My favorite kitty in Mexico is una gato negra. Sweet as sugar and an expert huntress.

I get good luck from black cats, just like from the number 13. Everything in nature balances, so I figure there are so many people drawing bad luck from black cats and 13 that there's an excess of good luck to be harvested.

Life is good.

I can not wait until our data processing methods are advanced enough to make studies on such esoteric assertions.

Certainly could have some merit given that one of the fundamental laws of Physics asserts that every force comes with an opposing force of equal magnitude. And given the seemingly fractal nature of the universe (as evidenced by homogeneity, and the way networks form on every scale - e.g. neurons, clusters of matter, the central nervous system etc.) it would not be far fetched to assume that these laws might apply on other scales and structures as well, such as the network of nodes (entities) with good and bad luck. We're still decades away from being able to even collect, sort and process that sort of data accurately though. Never mind analyzing it.

Hahahaha. I still can't understand, how to become the hat then?

Ask Papa John's to make you one with everything.
Or kindly ask our mad hatter xhomerx.

Papa John's and mad hatter xhomerx, please help me to create my own unique 'hat' with bitcoin/cat/dog theme.  

Papa John's is a pizza joint in US, lol

In other news:

why captcha became so f-ed up around here?
it cannot properly recognize either the bus or a fire hydrant.
is someone/something messing with it?

I've been wondering about that. There's no way it can be that shitty when AI pretty much obliterates entire teams of human players in the most complex games available.

 I also returned the merit he sent to me because of that.

Stop presenting fantasy regarding how merit works, here.

There is no such thing as "returning merit" in the context that you suggest.

That was part of the joke.
But this is less and less funny the more we talk about that.
My point is this thread is fun, but as I am relatively new here I still have to work out to understand how the attention span works here.

It's easy, if you want merit post a shot of your chow.

According to the 2014 / 15 crypto market schedule, the train is running on time.

Drunk thought of the day - what if this time around the buyers were forced to capitulate! Oh shit - it keeps going up from that not-a-capitulation low!!!

Relevance to my observation that dishonest and dishonorable opponents are once again using falsehoods to try to taint a coin by association? None.

Your relentless defensiveness and apologism for creepy people and aspects of things you have no influence over is really bleedin' weird.

It is not a defense of people. It is in defense of my preferred blockchain. Are you so dull as to not see that? (I rather doubt it). Are you going to tell me that the intent of the post to which I replied was not to besmirch SV? Ayre is not SV, and SV is not Ayre. Ayre is neither the CEO of BSV. Such is a lie. Why do you defend a lie? Defense of lies is reprehensible. Defense of the truth is not. Casting aspersions upon those defending the truth is 'creepy'. Not to mention reprehensible.

Your phrasing of such hypothetical is confusing because it seems to use the wrong terms. 

First of all, you cannot force capitulation, even though capitulation may have more than one meaning.  There is a traditional meaning of capitulation that would be that a person capitulates by selling all of his coins. 

Or there is a kind of bitcoin capitulation which seems to be what bitserve is doing, which is a kind of psychological capitulation.  He is not selling his coin, but he is not taking any other further action either, such as buying more bitcoins, making plans to buy bitcoins or making bullish moon/lambo plans.

I hate to suggest that bitserve's strategy is normal; however, there seems to be a kind of phenomenon in bitcoin that involves the presence of a decent amount of HODLers of last resort.  We don't exactly know what that number of HODLers is nor the quantity of coins that they HODL or the BTC price that would cause only the HODLers of last resort to remain, which would then leave no option for the BTC price to go up, once all of the non HODLers of last resort are weeded out.   

You, Dogboy714, seem to be suggesting a totally different scenario, in which bearwhales might unsuccessfully engage in a tactic to attempt to force the BTC price down more and more to cause capitulation, but they are unsuccessful in their attempt to weed out additional weak hands and the BTC price goes in the opposite direction, which is UP.  This kind of scenario that you are proposing has happened quite a lot in BTC's history, and at some point it is likely to happen again.  It remains unclear who gets rekt in these kinds of scenarios besides traders playing around with margin that gets called or no coiners who refuse, refuse and refuse to buy until BTC prices have gone up a considerable degree and causes them to buy way higher than they should have.. and contributes to a kind of FOMO dynamic in BTC's price rise and also losses (at least on paper) when the BTC price subsequently crashes after the exuberance wears off (which is far from clear at what price point the price reversal would take place to correct from the previous exuberance).

Boring!!!!!!!!  Such an old talking-point.  Can't they be, at least, a little bit more creative and come up with something half-way new and interesting?

It appears to me that some people in this thread are projecting a little too much.

JBreher seems to me to be one of the few people in here who can have arguments without getting emotional. I certainly don't agree with him on the BTC vs BSV matter, and likely on many other issues. But he sure seems like a person that is worth talking to, as he's clearly capable of keeping an open mind without acting as if - or even worse, believing that - everybody who brings up points he doesn't like is his enemy.

If they could they wouldn't have to use misinformation tactics in their attempt of maintaining power.
