When it comes down to it, most of Bitcoin's problems tend to come from the interactions with the fiat system.
~$70 million of their problems came from their oh-so-clever 2-of-3 wallet implementation.
If not for "the fiat system" they wouldn't have a business (which, as I understand it, is exchanging BTC into fiat and back again).

Once you have bitcoins you shouldn't need to go back to the fiat system and all the problems that come with it.
Bitfinex provides a platform for people wishing to trade fiat for BTC and vice versa. That's what it does.
Saying that finex's "problems tend to come from the interactions with the fiat system" is like saying that a boat's problem come from the interactions with water.

That would be true if that's what I said.
Ah, my mistake, apologies. Assumed we were talking about finex.
You're right, most of Bitcoin's problem do come from interacting with fiat. Since that's what it is mainly used for (trading), that's a boatload of problems.

I'm what we in the intelligence circles call a "Hungarian Code Mule," was passing some "happy" code for my spyfriend. Edward "Special Snowflake" Snowden, because NASA is watching him.
I don't really know what those launch codes mean :\
P.S. Did i say "intelligence circles"? Lol, major typo, disregard. I meant shoe! Shoe salesman circles.

They're likely moving their nukes due to what happened a few weeks ago with Turkey sending their troops to "inspect" that base. Basically they are not well enough equipped to stop an army from taking all of the nukes, so they're moving to a more stable country.
Never mind about that. Right now we need to get both of my cars out of this bad neighborhood, allright? Come on.

You're being a little unfair. They absolutely have to trade on BFX to make it successful, otherwise the the tokenized debt tokens their money was replaced with would remain worthless.
You gotta spend money to make money, it's just common sense

JayJuanGee I traded on Bitfinex happily for two years: it seemed to me the best exchange around and the most advanced too.
As you suggest probably the truth about what happened is in the middle even though I'm more oriented on the dirtier version of the story.
I was lucky enough to have moved all of my coins out of that mess before the theft.
Everybody would love to see a sort of silver lining for this story but it will not probably happen.
A serious business would have never created such a bfx coin to repay its customers. To me that's called QE
Market is pricing their tokes at almost $0.40 so the haircut is around 21% which is apparently better than what market priced in. Also their ask side just vanished only

Not seeing it, maybe they did it wrong. Could you point out this pattern in the 40-year chart below?
In my region we have more than 50% unemployed.
You gotta move to a better neighborhood.

[...] it appears that some folks have moved to other exchanges (off of Bitfinex)... but we need to get some volume before we attempt to hammer any coffin nails.
There will be no drama at the End. No drawn-out funeral processions with weeping black-veiled women, no stoic undertakers in opera hats with those weird mourning veils, no funeral dirges swelling, no nails getting pounded into coffins (AFAIK, that sort of thing went out in the 1800s, and even then -- only for the terminaly poor. Driving
nails through the lacquered and hand-rubbed lid of Perma-Seal Stainless Steel Princess Deluxe? Ugh! Unthinkable.) or hysterical widows throwing themselves into the grave.
This isn't gonna be like that. It's gonna be exactly like this: Everyone leaves, in a couple of weeks the neighbors start complaining about the nasty stench coming from 4b.

Yeah that's why no one in the world is using wire transfers, you know cause "there is no way as of yet to do a refund or a redo if you send
coins wire to the wrong addy,or if you get hacked at home on your PC"
If all fiat transactions were bank wires, fiat money would have died on the vine & you'd have a great point. As it stands...

Spot the fallacy.
Blocks aren't anywhere near full now, and mempool is nearly empty. What you're suggesting doesn't happen in practice?

Post 16105644 (copy this link) (by BathSaltsDealer) (scraped on 2020-04-04_Sat_14.57h):
Even when "blocks are full" and mempool queues are several megabytes long, there are always a lot of transactions served in the near zero cost segment.
Not sure I'm following. Shouldn't the blocks be always full, due to spam transactions filling them up to capacity? Why aren't they full now?

There is a large triangle formed during the last 4 weeks, it should break one way or another in less than a week.
If it will break up, it won't go far IMO, but could form the wave 1 of a new rally.
But if it will go up nicely, close to 750$, then correct, then this would be very bullish IMO.
Looks promising

SegWit was promised to arrive in april 2016, it's now September.
And I have lost one tooth
And I walk a little lame
And I ain't got time
For the waiting game
And the days dwindle down to a precious few
September ... November!
And these few precious days I'll spend with you. These precious days I'll spend with you
