Thread: Bitcoin Cracks $5000

  1. #571
    Alts are going crazy this weekend. ADA moved into the #5 coin spot. Even the small cap coins are on a big boost. I'm not sure what to credit this to - moving out of BTC at the end of the year to find the next moon? New players in the game realizing there are lots of alts out there? McAfee making his coin choices have massive interest and alts are growing as a whole?

    A lot of people see a crypto is only $0.05 per coin so it must be cheap. Under $1 is getting in on the ground floor! It's like buying a stock because of the price per share with no regard for how many shares outstanding.

    I don't even understand crypto and I've been involved in computing from almost the beginning. Started programming in the 80's and still do all our office tech (and home of course). I trade in crypto as a hobby (not very good at it) but I really don't understand the blockchain and the encryption. I'm getting old and slow though so that could have something to do with it...

    i am a computer engineer..

    the best little known coin i know is Pascal Coin. You can only buy it on Poloniex. Get a wallet http://www.pascalcoin.org/#wallets

    The wallet is ugly but it works like a charm and Pascal Coin has solved the scalability issue with a smart design choice. Few people already know that.
    For me right now Pascal coin has a huge upside potential. it is not a $#@! coin. I have been a bitcoiner and maximalist. but coins like Pascal made me reconsider.
    trust me. buy 100 pascal and HODL. you will thank me.

    "Buying" something with bitcoin is the same as claiming you are buying something with a share of Intel stock.


    LOL@jawboning bitcoin back up with "libertarian" Peter Thiel today. Looked to be faltering and then wham, Peter Thiel is trotted out to push it back up. He's a libertarian, dontcha know? A libertarian Bilderberger that develops big brother software for the NSA. But he's a libertarian so buy some more bitcoin. Cuz libertarian. Libertarian.

    And bitcoin is so not an NSA creation. Cuz libertarians.

    Hmmmm. Pascal was my favorite programming language back in the day. I'll have to give it a try. Do I have to buy Pascal coin with another crypto?

    You will need to create an account at poloniex then send some bitcoin or litecoin or something over to your account at poloniex and trade that for Pascal.

    BTC doesn't have durability the way physical money does. It's currency, not money.

    I heard EOS may have a run against ETH as well.

    Have you looked into IOTA? It's a coin based on the internet of things, and while people like AF may be turned off at first it looks to be about securing and privatizing data in the IOT (internet of things) paradigm.

    Thats awesome, my wife can earn her allowance automatically based on her vacuum cleaner, dishwasher, stove usage data.

    In addition to her other chores ofc
    It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.

    Yes, and the government won't be able to come after you for paying her slave wages because it's all encrypted.

    If you direct Fidelity to convert a share of Intel stock to dollars then Fidelity remits those dollars to a seller of a trinket, you would define the share of Intel stock as "currency" or a "medium of exchange", instead of a security? Interesting. I consider something as currency when it is DIRECTLY exchangeable for goods/services and does not require conversions (different national currencies notwithstanding).

    A trinket is not a medium of exchange(except in primitive bartering economies, perhaps, but that's not within the scope of this thread). Surely you must be joking me with this entire post.

    You do understand that no retailer accepts bitcoin directly as payment, yes? They all employ an exchange like Bitpay that converts bitcoin units to dollar units, then the exchange remits dollars to the retailer. The retailer is paid in dollars, not bitcoin. Saying you are buying from a retailer using bitcoin is like saying you are buying from a retailer using an Intel share. The trinket is what the retailer ships you after receiving the dollar units.

    Some retailers do but yes, overall it's still very rare until a complete supply chain can be entirely paid in crypto. Overstock is keeping 50% of all bitcoin payments as bitcoin, up from the 10% it used to hold.

    Fine, you win. We can use bitcoin to watch Mordan's balkan girlfriend diddle herself for 15 minutes. Not sure how that's a "retailer" (there's a tail joke in here somewhere) by definition, however.

    Ethereum breaks new record by reaching $1,000 for the first time

    Ethereum tokens (ethers) have reached $1,000 on multiple major exchanges for the first time ever. This is an all-time high and the result of a multiple-day rally. The total market capitalization of ethers currently available is now $100 billion.

    And yet, ethers only represent around 13 percent of all cryptocurrencies out there. 2017 may have been a huge year for cryptocurrencies across the board, but one of the most important stories is that there are now many different tokens worth tens of billions of dollars when it comes to market capitalization.

    One ether was worth between $700 and $800 for most of the second half of December. But over the past seven days, ethers have been trading up 40 percent.

    Despite this incredible performance, Ripple is still the second biggest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. Somehow, Ripple has been up over 1,300 percent over the last 30 days. Ethereum has been lagging behind Ripple because of this rally.

    Bitcoin is becoming less and less dominant. It now represents 32.5 percent of the value of all cryptocurrencies in circulation.
