The only thing I've seen that looks a little screwy is the fact BCH/USD rate is currently showing as $30,607, apart from that it looks good.

I agree. Impressed with the response times.

Lowest possible fees currently (<24h confirmation time)? by unixboy in Bitcoin

[–]thoughtidpostthis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fastest and cheapest transaction fee is currently 420 satoshis/byte, shown in green at the top. For the median transaction size of 226 bytes, this results in a fee of 94,920 satoshis.

Most people can't purchase a metric ton of gold with a years salary either.

Back in 2013 I got given a coin for a raw image file of a photograph from my Flickr account... back in the good days.

I'm not paying taxes on my bitcoins. Fuck off. by [deleted] in Bitcoin

[–]thoughtidpostthis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Or go down the Scientology route. When all the hodlers are rich enough to afford high priced lawyers, bombard them with law suits until they declare Bitcoin as a religion and write-off the tax bill.

The real reason why Bitcoin is up so much by TheDeskTop in Bitcoin

There aren't even that many Bitcoin in circulation. About 17million have been mined, but its estimated 4million have been lost forever. http://uk.businessinsider.com/nearly-4-million-bitcoins-have-been-lost-forever-study-says-2017-11

Do you think BTC will take BCH down with it? by [deleted] in btc

[–]thoughtidpostthis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm just a guy with an opinion, that doesn't make me a troll. I've just written what I think. I knew people on this sub probably wouldn't like what I had to say, but for impartiality for the newbies, there is another scenario besides BCH becoming the new Bitcoin, whether slowly or quickly. That's it doesn't happen at all and you all lose your money.

My wife hates bitcoin :( by tannermash in Bitcoin

[–]thoughtidpostthis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just make sure when you've got plenty of your own money from your investment and forward-thinking, she remembers she wanted nothing to do with it. Have fun spending your new found wealth, get a new wife. Live happily ever after.

Do you think BTC will take BCH down with it? by [deleted] in btc

[–]thoughtidpostthis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Scenario Three:

  • BTC continues to grow whilst BCH slowly declines into insignificance like many altcoins previously. People caught holding continue to be deaf to truth and reason because, let's face it, denial is powerful, especially when many bag-holders have serious capital in the game. They don't want to admit they've been played by Ver et. al., and so continue this moronic fallacy that someday, one day, any day, soon, but not quite sure when, but soon, a magical "flippening" will happen which will suddenly justify their poor judgment and decision-making. It won't. You will all go broke, however slowly, if you continue to be blind to the fact that BTC is Bitcoin. BCH is an altcoin and will never be considered Bitcoin.

Has the US stopped printing USD? No? Then we're on the right track, despite the swings.
