no, but if I mined a few back in the day I wouldn't be using a windows XP right now. I was never a "no coiner" and yes I (and probably most people) couldn't fathom that it would get to this price so fast but even than I get butthurt for not knowing the future. It just always comes back to the "what if I had..."

Please go back to sub $100 Ether, BCH fucked me so hard we need to make our gains again.

>tfw I could've sold BAC+B for a meaty profit and bought back in later on the dip but can't because Robinhood is (((protecting))) me because I might get confused into thinking I bought stock
>have to hold during a hard 40%+ loss instead because I'll never be able to buy it again
T-thanks

I love too how they block the warrants but decide to allow options soon

explain?

no ones trading it, even with metro in october. the price hasnt moved from ~0.65 to ~0.85 range in months, and the little movement it has had is down.

the usd chart is worse, it keeps bouncing off $300.

i bought some around 0.08 and feel like im going to baghold this forever.

>>3320323

>It's the "I sold a stock premarket because it looked like it was dipping then panic bought back in at open because it was rising and panic sold because it was dipping and now its rising" episode again

its literally consumed a large chunk of my life

i hardly have time for anything else anymore

segwit is shit and is why btc will never reach $5k. the coin is dead,for real this time. everyone already jumped ship to eth.

you need to be a special sort of retarded to still be in the hodl cult right now.

eth has a 100m token cap, the dao recovery was community driven and decided on by miners, not vitalik.

dont believe blockstreams propaganda. just fucking buy eth already.

>mfw I bought cripple at .36c months ago

If only it had gone just a couple of cents more I could of sold at a couple hundred loss but no this coin just keeps edging and edging until it goes fuck you and back into the abyss

bitcoin is broken and only works with a patented lighting network that you have to pay extra for.

alts are cheaper and faster to use, can scale better, and have better privacy and usability.

however, bitcoin is using censorship, lies, and propaganda (ie eth is inflationary, everyone is a chink shill, etc) to artificially inflate bitcoins price and normies think itll rise forever.

>verifiable undeniable proof btc is being bought with fake tether, literally the next gox event, literally existential btc crisis that could end the coin, price is 100% manipulated
>"$10k soon guys! segwit2x guys!"
we are definitely balls deep in peak mania right now.

Anon, have a little bit of faith that some people actually do want to support their fellow /biz/realites.

Besides, you can look up the contract address by yourself. And how on Earth would the "add custom token" button lead to you sending me money, especially if you're not inputting the number of your tokens?

This is why I said I favor Sia.

All money is paid up-front and put into a file contract. The host is guaranteed to get paid for storing the data over a long timescale, regardless of the actions of the renter. Similarly, the host is guaranteed to not get paid if they lose the data. The renter doesn't need to be online to check. Furthermore, in Sia the host can put up collateral. So if, for example, the renter is paying 10 SC into the file contract, the host can pay 30 SC into the file contract, which means at the end of the contract the host will either get paid 40 SC or 0 SC. This is significant incentive for the host keep the data. To make it profitable for the host to drop the contract, the next person would need to offer a payment that is 4x what the existing contract is worth. This can be compared to Storj, where it's worthwhile for the host to switch after any bump in price, even very small ones.

It's important to remember that on a decentralized network, you are dealing with greedy, anonymous, fully untrusted hosts. You have no idea who is getting your data, what their motivations are, and what their timelines are. If a host knows they only care to store data for 6 weeks, but knows they can sell the data for more by advertising that they will keep it for 2 years, they can leave suddenly. On Sia, it is very expensive for a host to leave early. On Storj, there is no cost at all.

Alas, our enlightened liberal masters, who control the press and influence educational policy, have deemed it. And thus, so shall it be~

I want the student debt bubble to explode.

Hang on then; how is this monetized? What drives the growth of the token's value?

Factual, of course. I don't read trash. The book itself is primarily academic and was named best policy book of the year by the American Political Science Association some time ago.

The author, P.W. Singer, can be considered one of the leading security intellectuals of our time. You can read his full bio here:
>http://www.pwsinger.com/biography.html
Met him once in 2012. He's a bit of an inspiration/hero to me.

One of his latest books, the one on cyberwarfare, is now considered required reading in military academies, I believe. I just bought a copy like two weeks ago, but haven't gotten to it because of work.

If you're interested in books concerning security and the like, I'm loaded with recommendations, if you want.
