Not sure what is happening on our side, but there doesn’t seem to be a pattern.

everyoen will mint their own virtual currency

Only mentions bitcoin once, but relevant:

started a new thread here for more general discussion:
Silicon Valley Techno-Utopianism

buttcoins

Bruce Wayne uses Batcoins.

why won't these things die is my question

because people like this exist

its not exactly doing well, the price is still doing okay but trading volume is way way down, hardly anyone is actually spending them. still I would expect the price to hold around $400-500 until Bitpay gets shut down or w/e

Imminent short book about Bitcoin's rise and fall in China looks interesting..

Assuming its full of funny anecdotes and not a serious attempt to maike the case for Bitcoin actually being a great idea

xxxp i got less than 10s into that before i had to abandon ship. it's too bad you can't back currency with smugness.

looollllll

kind of lol, mostly terrifying

oh, huh. creepy!

xp lol at first i wrote "terrifying" in this post and changed it

Bitcoin, Bodysurfing, Biology

I want to cash this in, because hey why not, but I'm pretty certain my identity will then be sucked into a black hole and my soul will be trapped in my computer forever

on the plus side, awesome bikes and disc battles

i imagine you googling "bitcoin for beginners" and in like 48 hours ending up seasteading

GIS'ed "bitcoin for beginners", eventually found this:

(I have wanted to seastead since I was 8, though)

I think "100 bits" of bitcoin is about 4 cents.

it's like 50 haircuts and shaves
but only individual hairs

I still think the most likely candidate is Nick Szabo. This Wright guy seems like a hoaxer who most likely planted the (easily faked) evidence himself.

but who created dogecoin!!>!

Lol

Click this image to see the word "No."

ethereum and dash have tripled and sextupled their value since jan 1.

seems like buying a bit coin a few years ago might have been a good idea

i got really curious about investing in ethereum back in march but held off because, i don't know, it seemed like the kind of idiotic thing i'd regret doing later.

instead i took my $100 and lost at all on fanduel

I mined some bitcoin in 2011 on bitcoinplus but it turned out to be a swindle and no one ever got their bitcoin - goes to show what happnes when a govt cannot back a currency

But if fun from the FT:

https://ftalphaville.ft.com/2017/05/22/2189145/how-to-value-bitcoin-with-a-traditional-valuation-measure/

Premise is he value of bitcoin should correlate with the global money laundering index published by the International Center for Asset Recovery. Conclusion 238% overvalued.

This shit is making it difficult to time drug-buying.

I think bitcoin should be seen as something like gold - a non-stable value precious metal - oh I wonder if Glen Beck will start on some bitcion shit now

lol the £0.01 coinbase gave me for signing up is now up to £1.50
