It is you, well you and every other person on the internet who thinks bitcoin was shat out by jesus and anyone who says anything untoward is guilty of the highest orders of heresy.
I was thinking it was looking at how people taking side roads in some areas are basically "cutting in line". Where i live there is a side route that you can drop off the freeway and then get back on right before where the congestion ends so you are effectively adding to the congestion (because of the heavy merging) but lowering your total trip time. Of course, as the article states, now with the apps you have everyone trying to use this route so the alternate route is just as congested as the primary with the added bonus of making it more congested still on the primary route.
Go check it out for bitcoin. It's hilarious and anyone with investing knowledge, not even 101 level, like maybe kindergarten will see that the price is a house of cards built on stilts built on a decaying ocean cliff on an active fault line in California.
It's really pitiful this site has become part of the pump and dump scheme. Hope they make plenty of money off of other peoples tears.
A market order of that size (which is relatively small) will drop the price around 5%, that should put things in perspective for people but it won't.
Good thing this person: https://pineapplefund.org/ is altruistic because if they unloaded all of their bitcoin in a market order he would drop the price around 60%.
People are going to get crushed when the bottom fall out of this thing. It's not going to be pretty.
"Bitcoin's value fluctuates by 1000% in a single month"......Is objectively 1000% good news when trying to find more bag holders in a pump and dump scheme. It surely applies here as well.
Your describing rational actors, not the droves of uninformed people who can only see the upside potential: "1,000% in one month? That's like 12,000% a year potential return!"
There's a reason the casino is filled with "jackpot" machines and not blackjack tables.

Anyway, it's not the fact that pretty much 1 out of the 10 stories a day is about bitcoin, it's that they are completely uninteresting. This one is basically "Rich people have money"
Also, it's not impossible someone one of these days could try to signal flight crew without bringing attention to themselves by doing any of the above if they were trying to back out or something like that.
In my anecdotal experience it's the biggest slackers who notice and complain about stuff like that.
Also it's been widely known for quite a while now that taking frequent breaks increases productivity because we work better in "sprints" that are rewarded in the short term with a break. If I recall correctly it was coincidentally 15 minutes per hour of work.
Smoking is a gross habit and the 15 minute breaks are better spent doing something else but from an employer standpoint the 15 minute break people are getting more done than the people bitching about them.

I think we can do better than that. When I come here I want the entire 1st page of articles to be about bitcoin.

It's almost like they know what the overwhelming amount of the audience wants.

Wage slaves in other nations has lowered the pricepoint to one that is acceptable, well enough to put our wage slaves on welfare.
Just buy on the rumor and sell on the news like everyone else.

The only difference would be pets.com had some office furniture and whatnot so there was some underlying tangible asset.

Well in that case, it's really hard.
Really easy, it just crushes the price as it tears through sell walls because of relative low volume.

How is this worthy for a /. thread? 5,000 other speculative bubble are inflating and deflating daily and bitcoin is usually at the top of the list.
