Silk Road forums

So whats the deal guys???  I got over 10 btc in account!!!   I am not sure if i am going to wait a few days for it to go back up, because i lost hella money the past few days!   But i dont wanna buy now, and take this loss if it is just going to go back up in a couple days. ya know?   

Need some advice guys!

Consider the money you lost a sunk cost. All that matters is whether you believe the price will go up or continue to go down. I believe it will continue to go down, so for me the rational choice is to spend or sell the coins.

If you follow the log chart, its really not that bad.

LOL, this is true. And if you change the y axis scale to 0 to $1000, the drop looks even less significant.

This place has been described as the smartest forum on the internet.

The exchange rate on SR has been frozen at $84 for a few days, so the price shouldn't have changed in that time period. Was the last time you checked before Tuesday?

comsec: that's because you got past 100 posts. Congratulations, you graduated!

Even better is a hellban. If someone posts too often or in a certain pattern, their posts become invisible to regular users, but they don't know it. Makes them waste a lot of time.

Other exchanges don't use Gox. They rely on their own order books. A trading engine uses the set of buy and sell orders in its database to execute trades. What happens on btc-e is independent of what happens on MtGox... except for arbitrage. The prices on the exchanges tend to agree over time because if there is a large discrepancy, people will buy a lot on the low exchange and sell (the same coins) on the high exchange, bringing the prices closer together.

That being said, non-exchange traders do tend to rely on Gox a lot, but arbitrage guarantees the prices are never too different among the exchanges, so in my opinion in doesn't matter that much.

I am using an android device, and only downloaded it again yesterday, so i assume its tge newest version.. Anyone know how to contact sr support on the forums, never had to do it before..

Try logging on with the regular TBB on a normal computer. If it works, then you have narrowed it down to the Android app. This is not a support question for SR admins. They don't make the app. I highly recommend you don't contact the Tor Project about your inability to log on to SR either. They won't help you if you mention illegal shit anyway.

Well, there was the giant warning message on check.torproject.org itself. All that happened was that their mechanism for downloading the exit node list failed so they couldn't compare your IP address to the list to confirm your TBB was working, even though it would be working for 99.99% of users. As usual, the paranoid darknets went ape shit.
