    Hey, just confirmed, convert your spare cash into ETH for the fork on 18/19th...should cause alts to spike or at least hold their own against spooks and other scary things that create red screens.

    I don't have a private key to my Nano, just a recovery passphrase, and not a clue what an ETZ wallet is.

    Jamie Dimon, mid-September: Bitcoin is a fraud.

    Jamie Dimon, mid-October: "This is the last time I talk about Bitcoin. BItcoin is 'a great product' if you are a criminal. Governments like to control their economies, currencies. Governments are going to crush Bitcoin one day. Who cares about Bitcoin? People who purchase Bitcoin are stupid. I don't understand the value of something without value. I could care less about Bitcoin."



    Early Dec, JPMorgan announce a joint venture with two other banks using blockchain.

    I reckon they realise there's money to be made from this young and unregulated industry, and crucially that it's here to stay, so positioning to pounce and ultimately control it.

    of course it's a scam, and of course Bitcoin traders are stupid idiots, if they weren't, they would put money into real productive assets instead of playing lotto, or roulette, or Bitcoin all day

    Bitcoin Trader == Lazy Chav Trademark (see Lulu)

    All good bud.

    My portfolio's about 0.3% less than it was last night.

    Was about 7% less an hour ago.


    0.03% is small money for such excitement.

    he's now bought at two tops and sold at one bottom...and probably a second because he's been tellingly quiet of late.

    whatever transaction he makes, do the opposite as quickly as possible...you'll be in no time.

    Overall update: Portfolio still up. ETH has done quite nicely for me. Nearly all my bets have paid and i've invested in the right coins.

    Hey Ray: why don't you go check my post history if that makes you butthurt. I've been throwing down all the coins I've been buying. You tell me whether they are up or down. Ball don't lie. See you on the next dip bitch

    REP pushing on like a muthafoker. 25% for the day, up to 24% of my portfolio as everything else has withered away.

    I picked up so much 0.0000xxxx (DOG, HYP, QRK, XCN) during the blitz at ridiculous prices, was just raking them in, with the unintended and just noticed consequence that XCN is 8% of my portfolio, equal with REP. Don't know if I'll ever get rid of these junkies, fun to watch...

    Yup. Alts Portfolio is now an all time high.


    Looking forward to tomorrow morning's dip of 20% wiped off in a few minutes.

    took out my profits (about 200%) last week (after a few weeks) and left the sum of my initial investment on binance in various alts to hold for the long term (won't be bothered to follow it daily).

    It is rather an unusual feeling to know that butterfluffer now covets Lulu's cock

    Be careful with the xrp . It is not required for their blockchain

    As I have said before . Ride it for the gains but understand that it is not integral for their centralised protocol to work

    You keep saying this, and the more you say it doesn't make it any more true. Moneygram is using xRapid which uses XRP. They're not the only ones doing it. The whole "Banks aren't using it" is basic Bitconer FUD. You need to update your FUD to "Only the banks are using it".
    Some people think it don't, but it be.

    Alternative way to check on portfolio: If no posts on thread from gaycarey and butters then portfolio is up. If either of them posts, your coins are likely down that hour. They think about your coins more than you do so no need to bother with checking them yourself. Cheers, hope this system is able to save everyone some time!
