CEOs don't run bitcoin. CEOs don't speak for users. https://twitter.com/tedmrogers/status/905686142044868608 --- Dollar fucking sucks. It's sinking vs all other major currencies. Looks like a geopolitical event is approaching. Vice-chair Standley Fischer resignation. He was a hawkish member. Power struggle happening. S&P500 is droopy. Gold is strong. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-09-08/gold-trading-volumes-hit-record-high-dollar-crashes --- Music by Joakim Karud

DXY - 92.57 - Trying to bounce saying low in 92. EUR - 1.19 - Euro inflation should be picking up, but because of EU *growth*, which I think strengthens the Euro still further. The relative weakness of the dollar signals low growth in the US, add to that the risk of war with NK. The US economy is horrible, the only thing people can point to to say it's strong is the stock market, which is extremely overpriced. ----- Music by Joakim Karud

Jeff Garzik is increasingly insane. There's only a very small percentage of people wanting 2x, and everyone is looking for an exit. Bcash is a shit show, and funny to watch. The ocsilations only lasted for two rounds until the price ratio didn't work out in their favor. It's very expensive to continue mining. It's also expensive to continue spamming. See the percentage of txs that are Segwit here. http://segwit.5gbfree.com/countsegwit.html https://fork.lol Many of the corporate coup types are moving to ethereum. Thank god. Ethereum is a more natural home for these corporate crazies. Price is at ATHs. Keep calm and bitcoin on. The contention is great for bitcoin. The infighting is great for bitcoin. Gridlock is great for bitcoin. bitcoin Core 0.15 is coming. Bring on the attacks. ----- Music by Joakim Karud

The show you can trust. ----- Full on BitPay boycott is happening. They've lied to their customers and everyone knows it. https://btcmanager.com/misleading-users-bitpay-forked/ Bitmain is the major hurdle for bitcoin. They have huge plans for a brand new chip, and not in bitcoin. https://qz.com/1053799/chinas-bitmain-dominates-bitcoin-mining-now-it-wants-to-cash-in-on-artificial-intelligence/ Bitfury is not going away. They have been the company that Russians are talking to for their new mining operation. Other chip makers are sure to go past GPUs to ASICs in the near future, right as Bitmain is going after a new market. First bitcoin transaction received via satellite. From Adam Back of course. A dawn of a new phase. https://twitter.com/notgrubles/status/899447987163844609 Jeff Garzik and company of B2X aren't going to change the world by copy & pasting Core updates into btc1. Keep bitcoin decentralized. The US Congress is doing what they do, trying to coopt better men's inventions. http://dailycaller.com/2017/08/19/congress-considering-validating-bitcoin/ Be vigilant of the sick fascination with mainstream adoption. Bitcoin will get there on it's own. It doesn't need the govt help. ----- Music by Joakim Karud

Lightning is going to absolutely take off. The list of dissenting businesses to the Nov2x NYA http://nob2x.org/ The list is growing and unofficial, but it makes a huge point. The NYA is only about 1-5% of businesses. Did Something Just Break in Stocks? The VIX Volatility Index Spike https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/%5EVIX/ I called this a couple episodes ago. Traders on futures were RECORD HIGH net SHORT! Pain. 60% move.

Vinny Lingham was on Vortex's Bitcoin Show https://youtu.be/7x5qF7vI-Sc?t=1h31m He was destroyed by Bitcoin Error Log an Gabriel D Vine. Big Tweetstorm by @Soveriegn_ind https://twitter.com/sovereign_ind/status/895036725323608073 He made several good points, like the general consensus claimed by 2x is wack, and Jihan, bitcoincom and ViaBTC have broken the agreement already with BCH. Bitcoin is very healthy here. There's going to be lots of bullish news coming out in the wake of Segwit activation. Call out FUD if you see it. --- Fire and Fury https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bt4t05m_j0 Trump is just using bombasitic language, right back at Kim Jung Un after his crazy statements. Trump is definitely watching Game of Thrones on his vacation. Fed Discontinues Use of Labor Market Index https://mishtalk.com/2017/08/07/feds-labor-market-index-discontinued/ Yellen's favorite jobs indicator is being abandoned because it doesn't fit the narrative. Another example of the Fed not dealing with reality. ----- Music by Joakim Karud
