I'm 40, and well in control of my money.

Me and the wife work (very) hard.

I'm struggling to understand who you're talking about?

We all have to go through this awful time together.

Keep Calm and Carry On.

Cheers BB

We all have to go through this separately :(

Not sure how it works in Britain but in the US education is paid for at the local level. As the boomers became seniors they moved funds away from schools, typically for more police. It's not uncommon for an American suburb to have overcrowded schools and a tank for their police department.

If i were a kid and somebody was closing my school they would be an ally :)

How do I get a reference code to send for somebody to join LB

just click "share" anywhere and you get a personal link to that content.

You just have to share something on lb, it can be a post or an item or a person, even your own page has share buttons on it. The link generated has your reference code encrypted into it.

Cheers bud.

Darknet folks like to stay on tor, they call this the "clearnet".

Ha...that's mad, just went and looked at that - it's the same but different! Crazy.

I believe that BTC price is determined by an alcoholic garden fairy, named Phil. He takes his most recent Pacman score (he plays nearly everyday) divides it by the middle two digits of a random phone book entry, then multiplies it by the number of things he can see that begin with the letter 'F'. That, to the power of 3 and dived by Pi, is the current value of BitCoin.

Haha, you write really well. Reminds me of Douglas Adams.

Kudos.

I've posted this before on here but when the Silk Road was a thing (around 2014), I bought 46 bitcoin for $9 each. Spent them all on drugs.

Didn't save any.

Apparently you live and learn but that was a hell of a pill to swallow when they went to $10,000 a piece!

Oh well. Fuckabix.

Cheers BB

Feel your pain here but. I've bought copious amounts of bitcoin at £9, £12, £18 in bigger quantities and did exactly what I intended to use them for, buying weed ha. Which was incredible at the time. No regrets, we weren't to know. It was a lot of new scarily complicated information at the time and a lot to figure out. I'd try spend mine as quick as possible as overnight they were way less or sometimes way more, this use to baffle and scare me ha

Wrong you forgot to multiply by infinity at the end.

oh that bigga

You also have the halving coming up, which will further reduce supply, unlike quantative easing from fiat currency.

Institutional investors and insiders have the biggest impact though the former are more volatile. It basically trades like a growth stock so news effecting the adoption of the currency like news on regulation has a big impact. Note this rarely has to do with adoption by users it's more about whether big funds can buy btc.

Pretty much all coins vary in value like stocks do. There is finite supply of coins based on mining, which is using processor power to solve pieces of the block chain which gets more difficult as it progresses. However no matter the amount of coins that are availible if they are not wanted then the price goes down.

Often times certain events influance the demand for the currancy. The reason it went down this time was due to a Coinbase announcement that they where not going to be allowing BCH trades for a specific period after the hard fork that happened just recently. A big BTC holder sokd off a shiload of coin which started it to drop and of course others started following suit and sold off their coin as well. There are also things like market corrections, people pulling out to invest in stock or alt coins and a bunch of other random shit. Some of which is predictable and others very much not so.

Hope that kinda sumarizes things.

Shouldn't that coinbase announcement help BTC as it's a substitute for BCH?

The cryto world is even more fickle then the actual stock market. CoinBase is one of the biggest market places / sellers of crypto so it put a lot of people on edge. Been downward a lot since then.

I noticed my wallet went down a couple days ago, the pound happened to drop at the same time, is this just purely coincidental?

Supply and demand. Not being short here but every price comes down to that.

OK what determines supply and demand?

Supply is limited by mining difficulty so it's always growing at a slower rate. Basically coins are getting harder and harder to mine.

So the bitcoin value should be increasing not decreasing?

Demand is another matter, who buys bitcoins? Besides biggaz? Speculators, "fin-tech" traders of every size and shape but they all look for one thing: a quick profit. Their dealings amongst themselves is all game theory and meme-pumping. So lots off ups and downs.

use the little biggy api and you can make 1

Someone is doing this http://smallxlpehpzsozaz.onion

Here is one that is live http://societywcowsoak6.onion

thanks but how do we know this is legit?

I spend the entire week trying to set up exchanges and wallets. I initially registered with coinbase because most say they are reliable and easy to use. Coinbase somehow did not work for me. Coinmama refused my verification (no idea why). After several attempts with others I finally managed to get it all to work with Binance to buy the BTC and an Exodus wallet. I just placed my first order here so I assume that combination works ok. Phew

I've been using localbitcoins no problems so far 3 months....

Ive come to really like Jaxx, took a few uses to get used to,
but it works well

GF

I am a bit hassled by Coinbase, although purchasing is easy. I use a separate wallet for my LB purchases... Never can be too careful ;)

I would have to say Bitpanda, especially for anyone new to buying Bitcoin. Check out a review here: https://littlebiggy.org/link/ZuuQR4

and a bonus 10 dollars bills for new users

Check out hodlhodl , its peer to peer. No ID needed.

Switchere , paybis or coinmama are my preferences

cex.io

Coinbase is the best....in my opnion.

I use Coinbase too theyr pretty good imo

Cpay

Download the etoro app you need photo id then just buy bitcoin as a trading stock with the amount you have put on there with your debit card or linked to your paypal then it allows you to move the bitcoin to a etoro wallet and from the wallet you can send it where you want, simple as that.

Localbitcoins. #1

BittyLicious, pretty much instant transactions and ID verification was only a few hours, site looks shady as but I've had no problems using my bank account to buy my coin there. Not sure how much more their fees are as I haven't used any other method to buy coin. Bitpanda kept refusing my ID and didn't try coinbase as I've heard they keep suspending people's accounts.

Agree with the guys below... BitPanda is very good. You can also try BittyLicious, the rates are a bit higher but pretty instant. SpectroCoin is another OK site.

Use a BTC atm
Check out my review on how to use one.

lots of atms have limited identity retrieval

What bothers you about Coinbase if you don't mind me asking buddy? I only ask as I just started using them, lower fees than BTC.com who I currently use?

They have good simplicity and good fees. Privacy is the worst and their leading position in the market makes them the 1st to confront challenges from banks and tax authorities. This is why they keep having trouble processing cards.

bitquick.co was good for my 1st transaction because i didnt have my ID handy and they do up to $400 without it. fast but dear.

Bit panda as well you can use normal bank or credit cards if u want less traceability but need photo id

no i.d. - i think bitquick.co does some of this and kraken

Blockchain or coinify

Aren't all names just crazy mouth sounds

It’s like Jody or Jodie, although I do know a bloke called Stacey. Is it spelt differently? Maybe I should have googled before I started writing this...

Can tell you’re bored and gone mad from the lockdown... lmao

Yes

Who actually defines gender specificity of a name?

Good man

fucking shmucks

I'm a bigga not a picka dammit

whoah is that some kind of future cannabis in your hands?

'tu like 2, pac like pocket" - this really is his 1st interview!

I always thought this guy was such a thug but he's a fuckin sweetheart.

well he was a ballet dancer before he was a rapper

He was a renaissance man, educated by his mother who was a black panther. He makes it sound tough growing up but that wasn't the half of it, they were pretty much on the lamb from the FBI for most of his childhood.

this bloke is my favorite because he was all these things and more, he was a poet but then you find out he took 5 bullets before the ones in vegas.

he fuckin showed en

2pac Santa is like a perfect concept.

Anything for Web 2.0 to end, its like cable television was to the Golden Era.

I think a key fallacy that arises is the argument that software is in layman's term a template and a mirror to human creativity; citing this as indication of its boundlessness should also be noted as an indication as to why centralization will ultimately occur. It's occurred in every other aspect of society where creativity maybe noted, what argument exists against that?

Yes its alive and breathes in and out.

Im not totally convinced yet, with the other waves it was really clear what the value proposition was. Even Pets.com, the poster child for dotcom excess, had a purpose. Those excesses were mostly ahead of their time, the DAO token folks don't offer things that anyone wants or even understands.

To stick with the dotcom analogy most of these tokens are more like the old network infrastructure providers say Global Crossing or Level 3. They were over-funded and they overbuilt but the network they left us was very valuable. It will be the same for a lot of the software the dao funded crowd is building.

one hundred percent with you on that one.

Anyone ever tried alpha brain or lions mane ?

lions mane is a great idea for most people, like vitamins for your brain. and a nice complement to cannabis imho

Thanks bud . I just recently found out about it. Gonna order some and try it for a few months.

I keep asking for them at my vitamin store and they act like Im nuts.

I can't say I blame them I'm having a hell of a time competing against modafinil here on little biggy.

If you like. I’m easy.

I’m away until Monday, my bro is holding down the fort, but If I order and he receives on my behalf he might start to party in the jungle without me.
