Rise'n'Shine
From prior "crashes" this should be the first race towards a plateau around $6800. Then resting and racing towards new ATH's.

Since the price started dropping I stopped looking. Haven't looked for a while.
Are we ok?

When watching a rising Bitcoin, I highly recommend listening to some fine epic music at a decent amount of volume.
Like Lesiëm's Times, and other albums.
https://youtu.be/9FEKdfFTHh8I think we need this with Leonidas fighting herds of attacking altcoins on top of a steaming CCMF while in the backdrop the bitcoin chart rises from $0.001 over time!
Video magics go to work!

Argh, so tempting to do some daytrading on BCH this weekend.... The thought of getting roached and ending up a bagholder for this crap is stopping me tho.
Just got an update on an altcoin signal channel on telegram:
Haha sounds legit, a newbie posting that BCH will be pumped, with known shills like Peter R asserting the same at the same time.
I'm not gonna touch it, I was merly pointing out that there might be movement (aka temptation to dt)

Very true. We can be excited for what appears like more adoption and a subsequent price increase. But what we don't ever know is if the current price truly reflects a public buying demand or not. In 2013, it did not. Which is only something that you can see in hindsight, after a downturn and a subsequent bear market begins.
The value of transactions is going up - but that does not reflect the fact that adoption "appears" to grow - as the price of BTC is going up the value of transactions is increasing naturally. Using the moving average of the number of transactions, there is no "greater trend of adoption" visible:
https://blockchain.info/charts/n-transactions-per-block?daysAverageString=7So my question would be: how do we judge adoption in main stream societies?

Ok, I actually did read the German sub forum, and I believe you, but I couldn't figure out at first why it was about a bet and not a charity.
it started as a bet. forum user elrippo posted that he bets 0.5 btc that btc would not reach €4000 within this year. I took the bet and said if I win, I would donate his 0.5 btc and my 0.5 btc to poor children for xmas. that is how it started. I am no charity, I am a private bitcointalk member. but I will stick to my word. and other forum members have donated also to that address. now its more than $80k.
it is of course way more than enough. bitcoiners are wonderful. and crazy. I had to quit going to work for a week to be able to get the logistic challenge done. I am working on it right now. it is crazy. I just thought I let you know.
600watt, which is the current donation address? Is it too late to add, I like the idea. Also, let me know if you need some help with the whole media attention thing:
"Random bitcoin owners group to give away, and casually raise 80+k."

So for my rebuy strategy: Will we see a dcb with this or will the green candles rise instantly after the drop levels out? Don't want to get back in too early and miss out on potentially a few hundred bugs/coin for free.

Are the ATH's crashing through the roof not enough to get your attention?
PS: That moment when you need to write ATH's as if it was a frequent thing.

Most of the traders are too emotional to make real profit. The only way to prevent the bankruptcy is to learn to hodl. The usual scenario is like this:
1. Buy Bitcoin.
2. Bitctoin doesn't rise.
3. Some altcoin rises 50-100-300---% in 2-3 days.
4. What to do, what to do.. Ok let's sell the bitcoins with 10-30% loss.
5. Now let's buy altcoins 1,2, 3,...
6. Yupee, they rise 10%! I'm rich!
7. Oh, no!! They lose 10-20% in several minutes! I can't sell because the exchange is broken!
8. Finaly, exchange is working. I'll wait to get back where I bought it.
9. Oh, no! Alts lose another 50-80%!!!
10. Ok, let's sell now!
11. Look, Bitcoin is 20% above the last ATH and 50% above I sold it!
12. I'll wait for the big crash to buy it again. In the meantime I will spread FUD in the forum.
13. Finally, Bitcoin is 10% less than the previous ATH but 100% above where I sold it!
14. Let's buy now.
14. Oh, no bitcoin is down 10% again. Go to step 2. Rinse and repeat.
Balance at the end of the year:0
So much. So many people approaching me asking about altcoins ("it's rising so fast and much better because x,y,z bla") just to come back to me a week later telling me that they bought back into BTC.

In the time it took me to check the thread, read the latest posts, start the capture and go back to bitstamp, the 100 btc "wall" I saw was already munched down to 75...
but anyways, i think we are munching:

You completely ignored the fact that China and Russia are both very clearly going back to precious metals as money. So again, why would they let the west derail their plan with these centralized, imaginary tokens that don't even scale when metals are far better for them and more sound as money anyway?
And there's more to crypto than just Bitcoin, which renders your argument regarding China entirely redundant.
God, I'd love to know how roach's brain is working so efficiently at neglecting any information that is not in compliance with his views and believes. It's astounding.

For example, A and B connect to me with 1 BTC each. I copy their public key to an offline machine and have it generate a million transactions each (or however many are needed) to account for every possible signed transaction then transfer that to a computer online.
Also, if this is possible, what prevents me from signing all of those transactions then spending the bitcoins somewhere else. Or is this what SegWit fixed?
No you can't do that. You only get some coin from Alice that you must pass on to the opposite end of one of your open channels. Each channel has only two ends: you and the other guy. So you get money on one channel (Alice), you pass it on to Charlie, which will help with another hop, until the coins reach the final destination - Bob, but none of the intermediate nodes knows that. You can't withhold the funds within your node. They must travel onwards.
And in this scenario could we interpret every single channel "section" (aka my combined 2 connections (Alice to me, and me to Charlie) as a tx confirmation? Thus, a passthrough of let's say 5 channels equals 5 confirmations?

Also, could we interpret the dropping number of average txs as a result of LN growing?

On a related note, what is with the low transaction backlog? This morning there were under 5,000 unconfirmed transactions, that's exceptionally low compared to 200k plus last month. Is this LN, the network without all the spam, or what?
I'm checking the LN growth on a daily basis. I would not say that there is any correlation between the mempool and the growth rate or total number of channels or volume.
Mempool 1W:
