As of close, yesterday:



Drop the blue trendline down a bit and we are still on it.

Subconsciously or otherwise, that line is in people's heads and is affecting their long-term plans.

The further the price drops from the blue trendline, the more that trader sentiment is drawn to the trendline of 2012 as the underlying trend. I will be looking for signs of that divergence widening in future versions of this well designed infographic chart.
1.86% of daily growth is completely ridiculous anyway.
Coinbase user growth is double digit % a week

Don't know if that still holds true

....and if this is true expect a massive dump of 100KBTC - that would takes at $70ish in the best scenario - not even counting the stop loss orders and general panic that would trigger. Man, a 100kBTC market dump could well take us to very low double digits.

If I were the hotel staff, I would dump the coins with a market order just to add insult to injury Cheesy
Sounds like he's spewing BS to cap the price. Didn't he say something about his bitcoins are never even close to the same location at the same time..etc..etc

You overestimate the negative sentiment the masses have on financial institutions and governments.  Yes, everybody complains but most are content with what they have.  It's certainly not so drastic that people will go through the incredibly difficult processes of setting up wallets, getting money into the system, buying BTC and then finding a way to spend them, which we know are far and few between.

This week(including weekend) i plan to sell about 25k BTC. Dont know wich day, im waiting for high price and counting for nice bid walls and then sell-off.
How about this....name an exact amount of coins over 1k and post about it just prior to selling them. You love telegraphing your sales so much so it shouldn't be a problem.

It makes very little sense for the those bid walls to go up (1000 @ $102.3? really?) and stay there. Not if their intention is to actually buy... I mean, they are just letting smaller orders front-run them..driving up the price.
Why not? it could be the same person(s) who bought decent sized blocks today. They could be waiting for sellers to step up before they resume buying. Decent sized Bid walls have been enticing sellers lately. No need to run the price up too high with their purchases

I might regret this tomorrow, but I've entered some shorts in the $103.xx's and am headed off to sleep. I'll either wake up to some stop losses being hit, or it's back to $100 tmrw.

Virtual economies and the use of virtual currencies intended as
alternatives to government
-
issued currencies are a recent phenomenon,
and the extent to which their use results in tax noncomp
liance is unknown. Given this uncertainty, available funding, and other priorities,
IRS made a reasoned decision not to implement a compliance approach
specific to virtual economies and currencies. However, IRS did see value in providing taxpayers with information on the tax consequences of virtual
economy transactions, a low
-
cost step to potentially mitigate some of the
noncompliance risk associated with such transactions. The uncertainty
about the extent virtual currencies are used in taxable transactions
and
any associated tax noncompliance means that costly compliance
activities are not merited at this time
. However, the fact that
misinformation is circulating and the possibility of growth in the use of
virtual currencies outside virtual economies suggest that it would be
prudent to take low
-
cost steps, if available, to mitigate potential
compliance risks. The type of information IRS provided about virtual
economy transactions is one model.

If you are not out, get out.

I'll hold and add and wait for that one small spark to light a fire under bitcoin.

Panic fucking everywhere..oh no. Take a step back and see what is going on in the btc world. Weak infrastructure is being improved, protocol is being utilized in new ways, VC's are looking endlessly for investments, online casinos (10+ Billion $ industry that could greatly benefit by adopting bitcoin is looking into it). Uber bearish sentiment makes me laugh.

The reason there are Gold, Oil, Industry, and Country ETFs is that actually buying a brick of gold, or a barrel of Oil is a huge pain.   This is not the case for Bitcoins.  Any idiot can overnight a check to CampBx and buy Bitcoins.  ...and you don't need to declare anything.  If Bitcoins go up in value and you sell them, it is up to you if you want to declare that income (the IRS has not said it's taxable yet) - with an ETF, you WILL have to pay taxes, definitely.

Please try to recall that regions do exist oitside of US soil...
In numerous countries it is much MUCH easier to buy gold than it is to buy bitcoin. In the U.S it isn't anymore difficult either..probably easier in most cases

Are bears starting to have their ground shaken?

A couple days of stability after a spike up and I see bulls popping up everywhere.  Cheesy

your bearishness over the past few weeks contributed to me making some bad panic trades and losing a lot of money... so it goes both ways.  It was of course my decision to sell at the bottom and not rebuy again at 66 but your constant harping about hitting 50 didn't help.

It goes both ways.


Most bears here are bears because they're planning to buy (more) lower. you contributed to their buy-in

If someone really wants to buy lots of BTC before a certain financial crysis hits (Portugal, Ireland, whatever), then it might be possible
we'll see a pump-up to 95-100, but not more, because the sellers are desperate to unload their BTC above 100.
OTOH if we look at past charts, it seems likely to have a major drop from 90 to 75, then a small rebound to 80, and another drop to 65-70,
where the buying intentions are still very strong (for now). This major drop may happen even after a pump-up to 95-100, if the
expected financial crysis doesn't become news. Because then we might see BTC up to 200+. This suspense is starting to annoy me...


It won't make any difference to Bitcoin if 'Portugal, Ireland or whatever' as you put it go bust tomorrow.

These are tiny bankrupt countries where the people have no money due to their economy being broken for years now.
Altough I don't think countries going bankrupt automatically assume we see a rush to bitcoin I think you're mistaken in the size of the bitcoin market. "The people have no money" 1 person worth 8 figures could drive the bitcoin market upwards. The amount on the market is miniscule and many sellers have already blown their load.

By going up about 5%, Silver just increased its market cap 20 times more than the total of bitcoin's market cap. Silver is tiny, so bitcoin is minuscule.
Yeah..just think of google or apple going up 1%.   That's bigger than bitcoins market cap and it's 1 fucking tech stock.

So much potential here. I'm not calling bears stupid but I can't find a sane reason to short btc even if you think it may drop 50%..the rise may break your neck.

Bitcoin is almost half the market cap of rhodium right now, which is ridiculously overvalued. It's the only "monetary" metal with comparable volatility.
Comparisons with gold or silver just don't work out, since their inherent value is closely tied to our everyday lives while rhodium is not and neither is bitcoin.
Care to explain how golds value is closely tied to our everyday lives and bitcoin is more closely related to Rhodium?

You realize rhodium is mainly used in catalytic converters and golds main use is a store of value, right?

Half of all gold mined is used in jewelery, that's not really as a store of value since the jewelery is worth multiple times that of it's metal content.
 About every electronic device contains a small amount of Gold. Catalytic converters don't use rhodium any more since there are plenty of other catalysts which are just as good. The closest use is protective coating of metal surfaces which uses layers a few atoms thick, oh and in certain types of nuclear reactors. Certainly not comparable to gold or silver.




I believe 5-10% of the market cap of gold is from use in jewelry.

Look it up.
Most of the jewelry is sold in Asia. The jewelry is bought as a store of value. It doesn't matter if it's bought in a rectangle brick or a necklace..it's still bought for it's intended purpose.

It's bought for bling, that implies value but it's not bought as an investment. It's bought to be used.
Since jewelery isn't even made up of pure gold and is alloyed it's made to be used, a investor looking for a store of value in terms of gold wouldn't care if it's made up of pure gold, even better the alloying wouldn't have to be payed, pure gold bullion is the most popular form of use as investment.
So it does matter if you buy a a bar or coin versus a ring or necklace.
Most popular where? Gold here is 23k (96.5%) whether it's a bar or jewelry. jewelry carries a VERY small premium and may be used as "bling" but it is a store of value. 23k and 22k is prevalent in Asia as jewelry and it is a store of value. if I throw a stone in Bangkok I can hit a dozen gold shops..they're not selling alloyed bling to the rich..they're buying and selling a store of value to the masses at a pretty tight spread at the market price. Shit 14k jewelry with a 800% markup doesn't sell in most of the world.

It's bought for bling, that implies value but it's not bought as an investment. It's bought to be used.
Since jewelery isn't even made up of pure gold and is alloyed it's made to be used, a investor looking for a store of value in terms of gold wouldn't care if it's made up of pure gold, even better the alloying wouldn't have to be payed, pure gold bullion is the most popular form of use as investment.

That's bullshit. Metric Investment bars are 99.9 and investment bullion coins are 99.9. Oh and comex 400oz bars are also pure gold.
Again, look it up.
lol. You're joking, right? So 96.5% gold is only bought for bling and nothing else but .9999 is bought for investment..all other gold is just shiny shit that doesn't store value.

Mini-105 wall just popped up?

The numbers are different [500/1500 split] but in the end its basically half of the original 2600/2000 wall

If you watch the walls close enough, you can tell multiple if not all are one person. Most likely not all, but occasionally 101/102 might disappear simultaneously and then re-appear. So, its not too unlikely they are just cutting their "double wall" on 105 while still making it look like two people.

Wait so what happened to the other bit of the wall? Got tired of waiting? Whats he gonna do, just let the USD sit on gox for fun?

I agree we needed a drop to get people to start buying again. But I don't think a $5 drop is anywhere near enough. Many people out there were expecting to see 50 on the last drop and we never made it there. Not saying we do this time, but with the dead volume before the drop, it looks like interest (outside of wales) at these levels is not that high.

What do you use to determine someone as a whale? or (wale)?  Because someone doesn't buy 2k+ at one go on gox doesn't mean they're not interested in bitcoin and have a bunch of cash they'll use to buy btc or invest in btc related companies?

This thread makes me want to bang my head against a fucking wall.

As an exchange, CampBX is a successful proof of concept but they haven't continued developing it beyond that point.

Do they have reason to develop further? There is so little volume, why waste money expanding or improving the platform until the demand is there? I don't think this bodes well for other US-based exchanges on the horizon. There is simply no demand for them. I won't be surprised if many months after launching they still struggle to maintain even a small fraction of whatever volume is on gox.
There needs to be an exchange for high volume.

Coinbase allows 50 a day. CampBX you can't even buy that without moving the price a large amount at most times.

I heard the Winkle twins are backing an exchange..does anyone have any info on that yet?

Once the ask sum rises, the down trend will resume IMO.
Down trend? LOL

Take a look at the past week. The trend is up.

The slippage from 115 to 111 was probably just a combination of profit taking and correction, and possibly just a nice little bear trap.

Someone has invested too much in the last few weeks to allow a trend reversal.

I find hard to believe that a return to 115 and above is possible soon, according to the bid sum / ask sum ratio, not after such a drop.
But indeed, the lack of a large drop in price until now is significant. This happens mainly because the sellers don't rise the ask sum yet.
If the ask sum remains at this level on a longer term, then we'll resume the up trend.

ok good, so how long should i wait b4 buying once my money gets their?

lol...

UP!
I believe the consensus on this board is to wait until at the very least..$50. They all missed the phenomenal buying opp in the 60's / lower 70's

Whales should strike in the morning (in a few hours) if they want to keep the rising momentum.

If the whales have any intention to buy and hold, they would let this fear build up. That leads to more asks and a lower price. But not too long, as then we would correct down quite a lot.
They're fighting over very few coins. They can either wait and hope for a pullback or eat up the 10's of thousands available..now.

I have been in NYC the past two weeks working on several very significant Bitcoin related projects.

Any chance you can elaborate? Also - Will you be posting to your blog anytime soon?

Wish I could.

Just wait for the news, serious journalists like the WSJ have already been getting briefed but cannot write about it yet, which should come out around the last week of September. Additionally, this fall there will be probably 6+ 'big names', like Richard Bove or Chamath Palihapitiya [starting at 19:15], in the investment community that will come out in favor of Bitcoin and that will cause a lemming like effect.

And the private wealth managers out of Asia are stacking Bitcoins away as the new favorite asset class. Many of the HNWI family offices will not make an investment in the sub-$25-50m range. So, when Bitcoin melts up then it is going to be free range for a lot of these ultra-rich Asia families to move in.

If about $1m of new capital moves the price $9 then just imagine what $500m-$1B of new capital flowing into this asset class would do to the price. Especially if that $500m requires 'clean bitcoins' from a known source of funds. The making of a 'melt-up' in price to a much more fundamentally sound valuation since Bitcoins are largely undervalued given their characterstics (no counter-party risk, cannot be seized and equity based like gold).

This is going to be a wild ride this fall. So strap yourselves in and let's kick the tires and light the fires!

Going back to the "mike from ebay" thing: nightowlace story didn't seem a lie to me, I was just amazed that he did not ask more info (last name and position) to the guy making the questions - now I see he did.

Nevertheless, I still cannot understand how Paypal/Ebay could be seriously thinking about integrating Bitcoin - it's totally against their interests. Come on: irreversible transfers, decentralized currency, pseudoanonymity? It's a Paypal antagonist, I really cannot see how they could support BTC, it is completely opposite to their philosophy - in fact, aren't Paypal and Ebay jerking around with people dealing with BTC?

As I said when I saw the CEO of Paypal speaking about BTC: I'm very sure those guys are looking closely to BTC, but IMO they would develop their own proprietary crypto, they wouldn't embrace BTC as it is.
It does go against what they've been doing but they may be scared not to.

The EbayDeals video would of taken a hell of a time commitment for someone who's attempting to start a rumor. Doesn't seem to be a fake.

Also, If some higher ups have amassed thousands of bitcoin they stand to makes millions or tens of millions by giving it the green light. People do work in their own self interest..

It is exactly these evil manipulators who just dump regardless of the market at large and the effects who keep us from realizing the true value of Bitcoin Angry

Disclosure: I adjusted a little bit down this week. Wanted one of my companies to buy more silver. If anyone is seeking to buy about 500 BTC for a price higher than in Bitstamp, drop me a line. Otherwise I will just dump them.

Yeah, his price today was $133, which satisfies me. How can I sell them to him?

This BIT will almost certainly utilize fractional reserve, as all the similar gold and silver entities have done, and act as an agent of price manipulation. (If not, the relevant authorities will shoot it down or make sure it won't even launch.)
Doubtful. He's a self proclaimed bitcoin enthusiast and is fairly obsessed with it. The fund will not only bring his company money via fees but also drive up the pile of his stash.

I don't know if he's buying at the moment but if interest is high in his fund he may be. Contact him via twitter or his website would probably be the best way.

Look at the linkedin of the guy, read his bio, the Walter White kind of guy: http://www.linkedin.com/in/rossulbricht

Interesting quote:
Now, my goals have shifted. I want to use economic theory as a means to abolish the use of coercion and agression amongst mankind. Just as slavery has been abolished most everywhere, I believe violence, coercion and all forms of force by one person over another can come to an end. The most widespread and systemic use of force is amongst institutions and governments, so this is my current point of effort. The best way to change a government is to change the minds of the governed, however.

So why would Stamp and other exchanges rally too? There was no information released regarding them. Stamp already fixed its withdrawals days ago. And IF gox withdrawals are fixed all it means is there are more coins on the market getting dumped into Stamp.
Gox is denying the opportunity to arbitrage.

Stamp can't get dumped on if coins trickle out of Gox

Can someone also explain to me why they need to impose daily withdraw limits if they're not insolvent? Im not saying that they are but
I can understand they want to avoid a bank run crashing their wallet software or whatever but that would only happen if everyone started to make lots of withdraw requests. Why do you need a btc limit for withdraw requests?? Why would you not limit people to one withdraw request per day. The transaction size itself doesnt matter? Whats the difference between 100,000 .05 btc withdrawals and 100,000 50 btc withdrawals? The only thing that can be different if they cant cover 100,000 50btc withdrawals similtaniously. Am I missing something...

+1

Many are blind here, and still have hope of a back to normal situation. MK is giving them this hope.

There is no legit reason to limit bitcoin AMOUNT.  MK doesn't care about btc price on other exchanges!

Also, this announcement confirms to Billy & whales at gox, that they were right not being in btc, as withdrawals in btc will be severely limited in amount.Through legal avenues, fiat could be retrieved..
BTC in cold storage stored off premises.

security reasons may make it wise not to keep 100,000 bitcoin on hand

If 7% of all bitcoins really are gone then the price rise would be more like 30% because the 7% were from the actively traded float, not from the several million hoarded and locked away in Arctic-cold storage.

You seem to be forgetting that there were also a lot of fiat afloat at mtgox that was meant for BTC. BTC will lose that fiat, and probably any new fiat that would of came from those who owned it.

It's fun to see how everyone are trying to downplay the gox situation and are trying to make this look good.
How much fiat was destined for btc that ended up getting gox paper btc. Now when funds are wired to an exchange to purchase btc they will be purchasing btc. Future fiat will have a greater impact as it's not traveling down a black hole.

there will also be a percentage of people who lost all of there stash but now fully buy into the bitcoin bull scenario. They must buy again

Even though I'm long term bull, this has to be a bull trap. All these people could have bought last week for less money. Why is Bitcoin suddenly more desirable to them now than it was before? Nothing has changed.
People waiting for the pain to stop

The sell off from the 800's was illogical.

A 4k buy with maximum slippage right at the end of a wedge. The guy had plenty of time to buy during the wedge and instead chooses to buy when it hurts his wallet the most. Looks like manipulation to me.

There's just something off about this rally. I understood the rally after silk road closed.  I understood the rally after Gox closed. I don't understand balls to the wall in China when The PBoC has not reversed policy or no major exchange has closed. A market that suddenly changes direction without a retest of support and news that amounts to a loophole that may or may not be closed?

To use Alan Greenspan's term, it looks like "irrational exuberance".  Demand that appears this suddenly can disappear just as suddenly. Supply that can disappear suddenly can reappear suddenly. The market is too thinly traded to be trusted.



Put yourself in the shoes of Chinese gov officials.

If you can move a market this much you can profit hand over fist. People are driven by their own self interest. Pile into bitcoin, release clear guidance, make 10's-100's of millions of dollars.

It's still a good buy, specially if BTC doesn't drop more.

Indeed, and that is the problem:  many external factors are sudden and unpredictable, and the magnitude of their effect is largely unpredictable as weel.  But, in retrospect ,the causal connections are very clear.  

One cannot predict, from price analysis or any other way, whether and when there will be further moves against bitcoin by the Chinese government.  One can say however that if that happens then the price will probably fall by tens or dollars or more, depending on the severity of the move.  And if the PBoC reverses its policy about banks x exchanges, then the price may shoot up by hundreds of dollars.  On the other hand one can predict that if another store chain accepts bitcoin through BitPay, then the price will hardly twitch.

Since the last rally was due to the opening of the Chinese market, another rally to 10'000$ would require opening another market even bigger than the Chinese one.  Perhaps some big regulatory change would attract big investors in the US or Europe; but who can predict that?

It is not rational to expect that new markets will continue to open at regular intervals, each 10x bigger than the previous one, just because there were three such events before with roughly similar spacing.


Your whole argument fails here. BTCChina was established in 2011 after the $32 bubble. Bitcoin has been opening to Chinese since that was only $2

What's so special about 580-600 that we can't cross it?

$560 is support level imo. We busted the long term down trend at $480 and smashed though $560 pretty readily. There has been some resistance to $600, testing twice, but the market is at odds so we are going sideways. Next resistance point $625 so if we stay above $560 and consolidate we should see another move up.

I feel another leveraged cleaner dump coming on :/

Hi, greetings from the vast newbie/lurker community.

Would anyone care to speculate or provide a link as to the ramifications of $1 billion being dropped on the market as a long-term buy/hold. I suppose this probably won't happen until Wall Street or some other regulated exchange is able to be used. Just a random, large number I picked, but I'm new to all this and am curious as to how people will react the when/if the next round of big money shows up.

Thanks for your thoughts, ideas, and pictures.

i think it's pretty unrealistic to assume that these coins will be sold at a premium. however, any assumption that the coins will make their way to these horribly illiquid exchanges to chase arbitrage, is also misguided. there's a lot of variables at play.

Maybe I need to post this again. Unrealistic? trying to gather a smaller lot on bitstamp by wiring your $18 million to a foreign country, drives the price up 10 fold, and nets a lot less coin

Why do you bother with it then?

I like the idea that it is based on and I think that we'll see some interesting developments based on that idea.
To me, worshipping bitcoin is like worshipping macintosh 128k and thinking that it will be the future. The idea has potential, not the present simplistic models. Worshipping bitcoin is based on the assumption that technology isn't constantly evolving, but about stagnation. It's the mentality of the get rich quick folks who are afraid on development and they wish that the world would be as static as their own intellectual development.
I don't think you understand software, networks, the network effect, or protocols very well.

We're not dealing with hardware here, this is software, both the core protocol and the network are bitcoin. If some ground breaking code is written that threatens our network, the core protocol can adapt. Bitcoin will remain live and well because it's participants are bitcoin and we have billions of reasons to stay, very little reason to leave en masse.

Bitcoin is fluid if need be but it is the layers that are built on top of the protocol that will make it a success. Why build out on top of a protocol with an inferior network when the bitcoin protocol is all you need.

We have small auction to panic about instead. Way more important. How exactly nobody knows but it's good for keeping the price down. So we'll take it.
A lot of pent up energy for the next run up.

Seemed fairly obvious as all FUD releases came out as soon as bitcoin started recovering again, each and every time.

Oh well..infrastructure has caught up to the price, rules are more clearly defined, U.S has pretty much given it it's blessing, and soon enough it will be traded on the NASDAQ where trillions of dollars are a mouse click away.

Anyone who doesn't see where this is going among all the FUD does not deserve to be on-board when the rocket truly takes off.

They are happy now because they made 200 bucks and will buy in again with a loss when the train moves on.

The train stopped moving. The auction gave it a small push up. Then it slightly crashed because oooommmg 1 winner. Now we're stuck. I might be wrong but i have the feeling people need a specific reason to buy more. Another deadline that turns out bullish. Obviously amazing news about big companies means nothing anymore.

I don't see anything bullish happening soon so my guess is we will go down again. A big dump followed by panic. Or a new round of hot steamy FUD. People soon will be looking hard for a reason to dump.
People are looking for a reason to sell. Not to buy. And that reason for selling can be almost anything. The reason for buying, almost nothing.
And i hate to sound like Tera so i hope i am completely wrong.

Well that escalated quickly.  We can have a small period of stability - which is very likely in this $600 price range.

Really, price moves up 10% in 1-2 days and people are already getting impatient and antsy when the price stops moving up for one day or omg panic it moves down a whole 20 bucks! Another bubble with a seemingly endless parabolic rise is not going to happen at this point with the exchanges we have right now. Fundamentals and technicals are looking good but it's not just going to rocket up in a few days, the ride up will continue to be bumpy and takes time. People are spoiled and have no patience in the Bitcoin world, it almost makes me wish professor bitcorn was right. But not really, because the naysayers and pessimists are even worse.
I'm sure New Egg purchases put a bit of downward pressure on the price. A lot of money attempted to buy bitcoin but got outbid. The question is..are they willing to pay market rates or will they pile in once bitcoin starts running upwards again?

Rally is far from over.

It's getting ridiculous how much good news and how un-stoppable bitcoin is becoming. Next serious surge could send us to hundreds of billions marketcap.

So what is keeping the train at the station this long?  Or are those of us that have been through a "bubble" or two just getting a bit impatient this time around?  I guess we were stuck at about $120 and $140 for a while last Summer.


Probably a combination of things. A lot of misinformation had to be cleared up, FUD, shit exchanges going bust, horror stories, fear of the auction, selling because of the auction, etc.

If this rise continues I imagine a lot of new money who has been bombarded with bitcoin over the past several months will make it's way to the exchanges as well as a lot of big money front-running the ETF and infrastructure that is being built backed by VC's.

Will probably happen quickly again..but I don't expect a major crash as fast or one that completely stops the train. Bitcoin is looking like a probable bet and the payoff, if successful, is huge. Will become a must have asset soon

(c) Exemption from licensing requirements. The following Persons are exempt from the licensing requirements otherwise applicable under this Part:

(2) merchants and consumers that utilize Virtual Currency solely for the purchase or sale of goods or services

"Records of Virtual Currency transactions. Each Licensee shall maintain the following information

The speculatory value of BTC is dead. It never needed to cost thousands of dollars to be functional or useful.
It depends on your definition of useful. I'd say bitcoin is useful for basically fuck all if it's below $10,000 per coin.

It's barely worth thinking about in the grand scheme of things. But..being a more efficient payment mechanism makes it extremely useful therefore any value assigned below $500 billion is severely undervaluing it.

All of them using bitpay/coinbase which immediately dump them coins. And people do not buy those bitcoins back I guess.
Again..can people not think beyond what's in front of their faces? Merchants SAVE MONEY..what do you think will happen when merchants and their competitors both accept something that saves them money over cc's. Err.umm discounts. With discounts people have a reason to buy. Bitcoin then becomes a preferable way to spend..

lets not forget that Bitcoin has an annually inflation rate of 14%...which doesn't make it allot better than the dollar when it comes to inflation, now with declining rate of adoption and this high uinflation rate and declining confidence of investors the price going down is the only logical trend... beside the  inflation argument is old and fake, and I consider it an insult to m intelligence.

Bitcoin technically has a 0% inflation since inception. There's a 21M BTC monetary base which will never be inflated.

see you are wrong there, technically there is 13 million Bitcoin in existence and the annual inflation rate is around 14% , theoretically there will be 21 million after 150 years.

No, there are 21M Bitcoins in existence. It's just that not all of them have been issued yet.

as can see from this graph the dollar is rising for it's third peak in five years.
each peak is followed by a crash.

Crazyness...but understandable in the sense that every currency wants to devalue against the USD...how long until the madness ends..

I hardly see anyone cheering anymore every time we go down. What's the problem? Are all these cheap coins not so much fun anymore?

because there is no such thing called "cheap coins", coins will be cheaper and cheaper therefore less and less people want it

those who yelling for "cheap coins" are permabulls or scammers, that's why only few trolls are cheering about it

The permabulls you're talking about are just miners dumping their coins like no tomorrow & they're trying to get suckers to buy them for as expensive as possible!

I'm of the opinion that a large buyer is purchasing off exchange blocks and dumping on exchanges to build a massive and cheap stash. Nothing else makes much sense. Sure people panic but many of the sales come when you would least expect someone to panic

This guy already has a massive stash. This behaviour is not of someone selling to buy back cheap. It just isn't.

It's not buying back. It's setting his price on exchanges so he can buy off-exchange.

Miners / bitpay, ect use exchange prices to sell blocks. Drive down the exchange price and you get a lot more btc for your money

You would think that the miners could figure out a way to manipulate the price upwards then, for their own benefit?  Perhaps seriously slowing down mining when the price is this low or using some cash reserves to pump up price to sell higher?


This idea that miners are selling off exchange baffles me a bit.  Maybe there is something that I don't understand, but aren't miners just shooting themselves in the foot by selling off exchange.  Wouldn't they just be giving someone else the power to suppress the price while at the same time losing any buying pressure on the price.  If this turns out to be big miners trying to squeeze out inefficient miners, then I can see this taking a very long time to play out.




try to sell 10 k + coins on bitstamp and watch what will happen with the price.

This. They can deal with immediate slippage or sell off exchange for none

correct, you see the point and The Winkelvoss EFT is a dump. They bought a lot of Bitcoins and can't unload them without crashing the market. The EFT is a way for them to exit Bitcoin.

Another Billionaire investing in bitcoin companies

New York City-based SolidX has raised $3m to bring financial instruments – including ‘total return swaps’ – to large institutional bitcoin investors.

Founded in early 2014, SolidX’s funding round came from a group of investors led by Liberty City Ventures and hedge fund manager James Pallotta.


http://www.coindesk.com/solidx-raises-3-million-give-institutional-investors-better-access-bitcoin/

"James Pallotta (born March 13, 1958), is an Italian American investor and hedge fund manager and, since August 27, 2012, the president of the Italian association football club A.S. Roma.

In 2005, he had income of about 200 million dollars as Managing Director of Tudor Investment Corporation. Pallotta's net worth has been estimated to be more than a billion dollars. In addition to his investment in A. S. Roma and other investments, Pallotta is a minority vanity shareholder in the Boston Celtics.[2]"

The speed of the rebound will increase as it picks up speed Smiley
This. If the climb continues it will go parabolic with short notice. The world is now watching and we have simple ways to purchase bitcoin from a credit card. If we go up another 50% bitcoin mania shall begin

We are breaking the trend, but we haven't broken it yet. This is probably actually no man's land for trading right now (we went too low, this is probably about right in the interim).

Hate to burst your bubble but take a look at longs. They just sucked up all available swaps no more free money. And $ wise they outnumber the shorts by far. Or you can just disregard this and keep looking at shorts
?

Free money would be setting an ask of several thousand btc above $1000 and then buying 10k btc on market.  Forced liquidation sends the price stratospheric filling your asks. You then get btc plus several million $'s. Free money

Although, I have to admit, I missed a real solid trade here, selling at $400 rather $318 would is way profitable.

hmmmm.... soooo basically you want cheap coin because you were selling at 318 instead of 400 ? teheheheheheheheheeheheheheheeee

and I bought at 300, didn't want to risk holding Bitcoin for more than a couple of days.

lol..it's funny because if you've bought and held since you got here..well. I think you already know.


Must suck..

 Cheesy
How do to both:

0. Get a job / start a business
1. Convert all your savings to btc
2. Arrange to have your income paid entirely in btc
3. Every time you receive a salary payment, buy enough fiat to cover your expenses until the next payment. Hold the rest of the bitcoins as savings.

Exchange rate falls from $600 to $400? Congratulations - you just got a 33% pay raise.

Exchange rate rises $400 to $600? Congratulations - your savings are worth 50% more.

4. Laugh at all the daytarders

Yea, what a great idea...for the easiest way to lose money, when we advise people about investing only what they can afford to lose because of the risky nature of Bitcoin, you come here to advise them to put all they've got into it.... the best pump and dump pyramid scheme.

So true. People who been around since early 2013 or earlier and still didn't invest much/paid attention to it tends to become pure poison later.

TL;DR - BUY BUY BUY! Cheesy



disclaimer: mmitech, you're not that bad though, compared to others
Buy and hold is always the best strategy. It becomes apparent when you look at the bears who were here 2013 Q1 and prior.

If that is indeed the case, why exactly are you spending your time here, on a Bitcoin forum?

Surely, if Bitcoin is destined to end up in the dustbin of history you could find more productive things to do with your time?

I wonder what mechanism could make it profitable for you to spend your (presumably) valuable time on the enthusiast forum of a doomed technology?

Edit:  When you consider the likely response of governments, which we all know are on the central bankers' leash, the "investment" starts looking even less sane.


If Governments had outright banned it we would probably be worth more than we are today. Instead people are waiting to hear.

w/e..distribution takes time. If you have no ability to envision the future, the future where bitcoin plays an integrall part..then maybe you should be spending this portion of your life elsewhere?

Orderbooks just got massacred.

[SUMS ABOVE, NOT INDIVIDUAL ORDERS]

Bid wall on Huobi was fake? How do you know? It was never touched.

It was pulled as the price neared it. This is called "being fake". That was the test.

Also, I dont think you understand China markets have waves of high volume and low volume. -1hr to about another +2hr are almost always very high volume. -6 to -1 are not very high volume. Hence, "CHINA WAKES UP SOON" posts.

Winklevosses, Draper, Horrowitz, Wilson, the list goes on and on and only serves to show: The establishment in Silicon Valley is already on board of Bitcoin, and they will never allow the price to get too low (long-term) as long as they haven't cashed out yet. If they wanted, they already have not only the financial but the legal means to prevent new lows. It's completely legal to manipulate Bitcoin prices.

This. Once they fully place their bets on bitcoin infrastructure...setting a few 10's of millions aside to create demand is a no brainer

Market is still tiny.

is there a story behind this? Eligius is for the block limit increase and isn't including TX's to press the issue?

He stated that a blocksize decrease would be beneficial and settlement times of +24hrs for confirmations is healthy.

Since he created Eligius I am imagine that he is quite pleased it managed to pull a .24kb block.
