Also "smooth out" is not the same as "hold exactly still". Things in the real world change and prices reflect that. The better and more quickly they reflect that the better plans we can all make.

In terms of Bitcoin price, if Bitcoin is ultimately going to be the main money in the world then signaling this as quickly as possible lets people rationally start building the infrastructure that will be needed. If it is going to fail and be worthless knowing that in advance would save lots of effort and resources. Whoever can tell us the truth (or be most accurate) will get paid, people who mislead with wrong predictions pay that bill in money lost from trading.

For your existing clients, probably not.  Will accepting bitcoins attract new clients?  Again, probably not, but this is the right question to ask.

For me, trading a few bitcoins back and forth makes me part of the drama while I wait for the bitcoin economy to mature to the point where there is something that I want to do that is more conveniently done with bitcoins.

Could you explain in detail how speculators in grain prevent people from starving?  I am NOT arguing, I actually do not understand this and would like to hear it explained.  I have a very rough idea that increased price of grain is good for speculators and bad for hungry people, but I am well aware that my models are over-simplified at this point.  If you would, please continue.

More channels being demonetized.

How is plantation vital to program?

Note: First use (unless warranted) of neologisms and terms indigenous to YuTü.Co.in are in bold (as depicted; glossary found at bottom of OP). Images - selectively cited - gleaned from the Net [to illicit emotions].

FIXZ is YuTü.Co.in's ERC-20-compliant native stablecoin available ONLY on our proprietary exchange, YTC-Sox, having trading pairs with every yAltcoin (yALT) - neo-asset class crypto-commodity pegged to a participating YouTube channel: initially backed by hard assets of YuTübopolis, Inc., prominently [purposed] 622-acre YuTübopolis Center; futurely, ALSO pegged 110% to viable yALT yaltz (shares) sourced from the Retention Pool (linked to below the fold).


Bonus

One PAQ (virtual miner/dowzer; follow link) rewarded for every U$25 worth of FIXZ purchased during the pre-sale offering, thereafter 1 PAQ rewarded for every U$50, U$75, U$100 ... worth of FIXZ purchased (mirroring HERE, precise [fair and reasonably balanced] schedule forthcoming, expanding upon the incremental U$25 increases).

Each PAQ is capable of dowzing (mining) no less than U$2,628 worth of crypto-commodity yALT yaltz per year based on the generation of one block exactly every two minutes (262,800 yaltz per year per PAQ), yaltz trading for no less than U$0.01 (1 U$ ¢ent) each on YTC-Sox. FOR EXAMPLE, verified well-esteemed YouTubers like Jenna Marbles, Ryan ToysReview or DataDash could relatively easily have their yALT yaltz trade well north of U$1.00 each IF registered as a Lynspinz on YuTü.Co.in. Mentioned YouTubers' proposed stylized TicSyms [Ticker Symbols]: JennaM, RYAN and DataDash (respectively) - inspired by their logos depicted in images below, linked to reciprocal YouTube channels.

YuTü.Co.in's YTC-Sox trading platform could feasibly act as an IPO proving ground for the most successful YouTubers' yALTs, exemplifying their carryover TicSyms (ticker symbols) for eventual inclusion on legacy non-crypto exchanges and/or the likes of Patrick Byrne’s security token trading platform - t0 (tZERO Group's logo as depicted).

PAQ:

Also known as "virtual miner", a PAQ (rhymes with pack) basically represents permission to dowze (mine) a specific yAltcoin (one yAltcoin at a time). Upon their purchase, each PAQ is numbered/timestamped, a lower numbered PAQ usually receiving priority when queuing to dowze yaltz if all other metric considerations are relatively equal. The more PAQs one has under their control (prime metric), the more yaltz one earns from the yAltcoins they're directed towards.

PAQs are available for purchase at any time directly from YuTü.co.in. Prices will vary during the different stages of development but will never exceed U$500 per PAQ. Registered PAQs can be deployed to dowze any yAltcoin, so long as at least one of the 100 slots are available. Anyone can become a PAQer upon enrolling as a YuTü.Co.in member, purchase at least one PAQ and register it to dowze yaltz of their preferred or [highly likely] most profitable yALT.

Distribution/Pricing Schedule

• Up to 20,000 PAQs sold: $25.00 ea. (<15K priorly dispensed)
• 20,001 – 30,000 PAQs sold: $50.00 ea.
• 30,001 – 40,000 PAQs sold: $75.00 ea.
• 40,001 – 50,000 PAQs sold: $100.00 ea.

PAQs will continue to be sold after this point, increasing in price increments of U$25.00 per every 10,000 sold, again, up to the maximum price point of U$500 per PAQ, culminating at 1 million assigned PAQs in satisfying the dowzing of 10,000 Lynspinz at 100 slots per (think: scarcity). Money raised from the sales of PAQs will be used to fund exchange operations, website development and security, as well as to occasionally purchase YTC tokens directly from select Lynspinz in support of their brands, hodling their yaltz for at least a 90-day duration.

Retention Pool:

There will be a total of 100 slots for PAQs for each registered yAltcoin (yALT). Thus, if one owns 10 PAQs that are all registered to dowze the same yALT, they will receive 10 yaltz of that particular yALT for each block period they are active. If all PAQ slots for a yALT are not filled, the outstanding yaltz generated in each subsequent block will be meted to the corresponding Lynspinz, namely if there are 60 PAQs currently dowzing a yALT, the non-allocated 40 yaltz of each block will go to the Lynspinz, complimenting the yaltz that their appropriated free PAQs will generate. anchor needed

The creation process of new yaltz will ensue as follows:

A total of 217,187,500 yaltz will be generated for each yALT over a period of 1,562,500 2-minute blocks, translating roughly to 5.95 years. After the first 781,250 block period (1/2 of the total creation period), the yaltz reward structure will change: 117,187,500 yaltz issued in the first half; 100,000,000 yaltz issued in the second half.

Structure of the 2 periods is as follows:

Period #1 (first half):

From Block 1 to Block 781,250, 150 yaltz will be generated every 2 minutes, consistently, which is roughly equal to 2.97 years. Of these 150, 100 yaltz will be issued to active PAQs (or remaining balance to Lynspinz if less than 100 PAQs are dowzing); 28 yaltz will be set aside in a Retention Pool (to fund FIXZ, development and other functions); an additional 22 yaltz will be set aside into a Reserve Pool to compensate each yAltcoiner possessing yaltz of closely ranked yALTs pegged to YouTube channels that have been shut down or deleted from YouTube, for whatever reason, or delisted from YTC-Sox for not meeting the minimum requirements set by YuTü.Co.in.

Apportionments:

• Reserve Pool: 22 yaltz
• 10 yaltz: Faucet Pool (yaltzet pool) for first 10,000 blocks only (100,000 yaltz meted from a dedicated yaltzet)
• 23 yaltz: FIXZ Development Pool (after 1st 10,000 blocks upon satisfying Faucet Pool above; 13 yaltz prior)
• 5 yaltz: YouTube Hall of Fame (YHoF) Trusted Escrow Pool

Period #2 (second half):

From Block 781,251 onward, 128 yaltz will be generated every 2 minutes until Block 1,562,500 (the last block), also roughly equaling 2.97 years. Of these 128, 100 yaltz will be issued to active PAQs (or Lynspinz; see Period #1 above) and the remaining 28 yaltz will go to the Lynspinz directly.

Apportionment:

• 28 yaltz to Lynspinz

Glossary:

.....................

First 781,250 Blocks (half):

An additional 22J will be Hashed During the First 781,250 Blocks Acting as a Reserve (17,187,500 yaltz)
10J: Faucet Pool for First 10,000 Blocks Only (100,000 yaltz meted from a dedicated yaltzet[G])
10J: Development [et al.] Pool (after 1st 10K Blks; 5J prior)
5J: YouTube Hall of Fame (YHoF) Trusted Escrow Pool
5J: Max Supplement (augmenting 3J) to Lynspinz Depending on Ranking (criteria TBD)
5J: Max to Affiliate Depending on Lynspinz' Ranking (criteria TBD)
2J: Guaranteed to Lynspinz from Onset of PAQing[G]
1J: Founder's Pool
Second 781,250 Blocks (half):

23J Minimum to Lynspinz (max 28J if no affiliate)
5J Maximum to [Usually Just One] Affiliate (splitting of shares available dependent upon an affiliate's makeup)
At the end of less than six years, each Lynspinz will receive no less than U$250,000 worth of their yAltcoin yaltz if: their YouTube brand maintained minimum ranking criteria; there's an attached affiliate; their yAltcoin sustained the maximum 99 sojourning PAQers dowzing yaltz; their yAltcoin doesn't surpass trading above 1 U$ ¢ent (U$.01) per YuTüSharez (yaltz).

Although it's theoretically possible for a Lynspinz to earn all U$2M worth of their yAltcoin yaltz, a realistic maximum will be somewhere north of U$281,250 if: their YouTube brand maintained maximum ranking criteria; there's not an affiliate; less than 99 PAQers dowzed their yAltcoin yaltz; their yAltcoin trades above 1 U$ ¢ent (U$.01) per YuTüSharez (yaltz).

BBanzai: You are a master with words. Do you think the bitcoin exchanges are any different from other financial markets, in theory? Isn't the goal the same everywhere, to do successful trades?

"You are a master with words." +1

I, for one, love BBanzai's writing style. He has a way with drawing me into his infectious hypothesis (or plural: ses).

Ronwan, I was hoping to hear your reply.

Out of interest, what's your day job?
