I wish that we finish the week lower than the previous. Because 7 or more weekly greens is danger zone.

So...weekend lift or dump?

ATH BTC date = 0.25 BTC + 0.25 BTC EXTRA for a specific reason why this date!

ATTENTION: When the date is in the middle of two guessed dates. Both get paid! Example: ATH = 10/10/2017 and nobody picked this date but 09/10 and 11/10 is taken (equal distance) then both get paid.

Greetz, your Bitcoin sponsor                                   

Some more than others... The $ has lost a lot against the EUR (not saying the EUR is not falling too).

When africoin posted



Its how hodlers are made.

It was $~1200 range an I got a 50% haircut.

Now my only strategy is

[pic]

Ya...but that crash from $16,000 to $7,000...   

Sheeit. Smell a correction comin'

SELL, November FUD is starting, buy at lower for quite a profit. Going to 3600 soon and who knows where this will end.

Is there such a thing for Monero? I get the impression the wallet situation is less than ideal.

2500 is a good buy

Might need to spend the day getting the last of my B*CH over to bitcoins while they still have any value.

Shorts getting rekt?

Being left behind is always a risk. Price seems steady for now and positive news is coming in. It looks like we may be headed upward soon but the market is still jittery so beware.

This is slightly terrifying.

Can someone tell me what's the deal with alt coins? Are they holding their $ value? Or is it as bad as it looks?

We’ve all been happy to wait a year for this brother. Let’s hope the next 3 year period sees a proce rise like 2013-2016.

Previous ATH is somewhere around $120. 

I seem to recall TERA being much derided during the 2013 bubbliness for making v bearish calls. History shows vindication with knobs on.

What do you mean by source like I'm befuddled would you be able to let me know in spread words that I can get a thought regarding the source which you have specified in your post then we can undoubtedly help you on the grounds that on the off chance that you are having data then we can give you numerous data and profound detail so yes mercifully affirm me as you heard what sort of source.

Can we switch to millibits already? 

Linki, please.

Either way, what are you talking about ? My goal is, to smash this Maybach into a wall, and walk away like i just let a fart . . .  

I was forgottten. 8th Feb 2018 please! Thanks!

Sorry, your TXID doesn't exist  when I use accelerator.

if 12900 doesn't hold we're going to 9300

and then one day there was a solar flare...BZAAAAAAAPPP...   ...   ...huh

The price will probably stick at $6666 for a while.

I have not seen a single media report that Bitcoin is dead.

I'm still looking at cat food, but it's gourmet cat food.

I smell mt. gox...they have 1.9 billion in usd to move in BTC by the end of the year....this could get a lot worse....if they KEEP dumping on lows and on exchanges etc (idiots)

so I suspect that is what is going on

GDAX just came back up

Its the trolls and the shills, who make it all up

Maybe we've done the beary bit. What usually follows is endless sideways until we've all gotten second hobbies as cheerleaders. Only then will it go bully.

The next peak is $180,000 in December 2021.   But the next 12 months are going to be boring and depressing as batshit, with occasional moments of sheer terror.  

Make your plans accordingly.  I suggest deep cold storage. Put it under a concrete slab if necessary.

I can’t see ANY ETF getting approved for at least a couple of years. Getting annoyed with seeing $6,xxx.
Really feels 2015 rolling along $200-$300.

When is this market going to move, man?

I was promised Lambo’s, hookers & cocaine

And yet here you are, jinxing it.

I like your hypothesis better, QuestionAuthority, but the others have kind of substantiated their view with external TA or with their own arguments. Why do you think the bottom is in? Please share.

I'd also love to hear a contrarian opinion, like Tera's. Alas, (s)he's not here anymore.

what have I gone and done now? i mean, you're welcome and all that, good speech you made and all that, but explain pls

Where are BlindMayorBitcorn and Aminorex and Jimbo at these days ??

2 mins to last trade on CME

Just merited a quote instead of the original.

You guys look all the same with that hats.

I dont see support at 2900.  But certainly above 1000.  At 3 digits, BTC is failing as a project. Possible but unlikely.

I would estimate that $1500 needs to hold, and I expect it to do so, some time in late 2019.

time to start shooting krokodil in my eyeball

$1500 now wait to buy    weeee

You mean first bubble is 6k$ and second 40k$?

I put up with him for -years- but that one night over the holiday was just beyond the pale.

How do you know we haven’t seen the bottom already?


Most of us are willing to wait a number of years

The exchange holds roughly 26,500 bitcoin ($92.3 million USD), 11,000 bitcoin cash ($1.3 million), 11,000 bitcoin cash SV ($707,000), 35,000 bitcoin gold ($352,000), nearly 200,000 litecoin ($6.5 million) and about 430,000 ether ($46 million), totaling $147 million, according to the affidavit.

What appear to be leaked bank documents suggest that millions of dollars-worth of cryptocurrency from the now-bankrupt bitcoin exchange Mt. Gox may have been sold on the the open market through Japan’s BitPoint exchange.

He could have sold it OTC with the buyer dumping them.

Exactly. He is clearly a phony, a pretend "bitcoin maximalist", same as the other guy.

No, but he is just an irritant since apart from his 'chartology', there is NOTHING that predicts what he is saying.

10:45 AM - 10 Feb 2019

The clock is running on the new Bitwise & VanEck bitcoin ETF proposals. The SEC's current deadlines are April 1 for Bitwise & April 6 for VanEck. Remember, the SEC can & likely will delay up to three times. The absolute final deadlines to watch are October 13 & 18 respectively.

I was waiting for a decision, between bullish and bearish scenarios, since 6h PSAR was close to flip to bullish, and 12h PSAR close to flip to bearish.
With this bi-directional spike, both flipped, so no clue how this will unfold...

Apparently yesterday was highest volume on CME ever



Edit:  sweet mother of god confirmed.  Look at that volume candle.

jeez

I just can't muster any interest guys

I need crypto-viagra or something

Does anyone else see bitcoinwisdom showing large price swings on high volume these week but then upon refreshing remove all trace of it without proof it ever happened with the price flattish?

Is it bugged?

Edit;

Now every refresh the last hourly volume bar drops to zero and starts recounting from zero. Very strange.

We estimate this will take about ONE WEEK. We will post updates frequently as we progress.

Most importantly, deposits and withdrawals will need to REMAIN SUSPENDED during this period of time. We beg for your understanding in this difficult situation.

So the $78k could be the second peak and after the halving and there would be no dip after $150k and instead the moonshot would be all the way from ~$30k to $500+K at the end of 2020.

$BTC is up 180% off the 4-Year Cycle Low. Took 5 months, with relatively little attention/fanfare.

To reach all time highs, it needs just a 122% move from here.

It's finally here...
The Bitcoin Super Guppy has flipped green on the 1-week chart
2012: 400-day uptrend followed a flip green
2016: 700-day uptrend followed a flip green
2019: the 1W Super Guppy has finally flipped green and it shall be a bountiful market the next few years

Bitcoin is about to have its third monthly bullish MACD cross of all time. Its worked out pretty well in the past.

Don’t do it in one hit.  Scale out.

Sell 1.5% for every $1k rise from $20k to $30k.

That way if it hits $23.5k and retraces you won’t hate yourself.  Also if it hits $30k you won’t hate yourself.

Personally I think $25k is too low a target but I can appreciate that some people may have a hell of a lot more than me invested in Bitcoin and need to recoup a fraction of their investment.

Make sure you have a longer term plan for Bitcoin hitting $1 million in another 10 or 15 years.

I recently got hold of a presentation given to special agents in the IRS Criminal Investigation division that discussed investigating taxpayers who hold crypto. I went through all of the 181 horribly formatted slides (attached for reference haha) and here's what I learned...

Whether institutions were going to adopt crypto or not was an open question about 12 months ago. I think it's safe to say we now know the answer. We're seeing $200-400M a week in new crypto deposits come in from institutional customers.

I would love this to be true but Brian Armstrong is completely full of shit

On-chain data can show us how long someone has been holding their Bitcoin before selling

Based on ASOL, the avg coin had been held less than 30 days during the price dip

= the sell off wasn't from long term holders selling their stack

Fidelity Digital Asset Services is rolling out its custody and trading platform to all qualified clients, after initially expecting it to launch in March.

“Fidelity started adding clients in the first quarter and is now engaged in a full rollout of its custody and trading services for digital assets — a boon to what is a fragmented and complicated industry, Ms Johnson told the FT in a rare interview.”

2012 halving reduced the new supply by $302,400 per week.

2016 halving reduced the new supply by $8,190,000 per week.

2020 halving will reduce the new supply by $63,000,000 per week.

Making the next #Bitcoin halving the most dramatic yet.

“In the U.S., and other countries around the world, it is just a matter of time before we see massive disruption,’’ Tobias Adrian, the director of the IMF’s monetary and capital markets department said in an interview. “There is at least the potential that new technology might lead to a new global payment system fairly rapidly.”

The 50/100 Week moving average is due to cross going into December. I could see us ranging into the existing channel until we get to the end of the year when this narrative picks up and we start moving towards the upside once again. There will be 6 months to go before the halving and the narrative will no doubt gain momentum as we go towards it.
As you can see, this cross has happened before the previous halving and was accompanied by a huge kick to the upside. I continue to maintain that we will see a move towards all-time highs faster than we saw in previous halving, due to better information out in the market place such as the Stock to flow model and because we already know that Litecoin moved earlier than in previous cycles when it had its halving.

It's interesting, I hadn't seen it like that ..

Ron Paul is predicting a major economic crash and as host Naomi pointed out; we are no longer at the stage where we can make a lot of money but the stage where we need to protect what we have.

    “It’s not easy, hopefully the crypto market is going to help. Protecting wealth has traditionally been done by owning ‘stuff’. People will want to get out of the dollar and buy assets such as property. Some people, if they’re comfortable with it, will be buying cryptocurrencies,”

Although it is true that there are no instructions concerning how to make withdrawals from the service, it is expected that Bakkt will be providing those to investors who are ready to make their withdrawals. Most likely, the company doesn’t want to make its withdrawal process open to the public.

In a world where assets get stolen in a flash, who can blame them?

Huh?


Would the "pop" be: 1) up, 2) down, or 3) sideways?

8/ As a final note, mass miner capitulation will probably look like something like what we saw in November 2018, as $BTC prices started collapsing.

Every other significant event since pales in comparison.

50/100 week ma bullish crossover in 1-2 weeks.

The last time that happened:
Price was $430 (down ~62% from ATH)
A few months before the 2nd halving

Now:
Price is $7,600 (down ~62% from ATH)
A few months before the 3rd halving

It's been amusing viewing while we Bart out.

I like this chico guy.

Really hope so.

I was never quite sure if he REALLY had sold all or most of his BTC at around $3K-$4K. I really hope he didn't or that he rebought soon after before the big bounce.

An upwards breakout isn't stopping at $9000 for long imo
#bitcoin

The breakout from this thing is likely to lead to the biggest weekly green candle in bitcoin's history.

Consider yourself warned!

This breakout is the real deal. Fundamental investment activity is backing this $10k breakout.

Dirty banknotes may be spreading the coronavirus, World Health Organisation warns

Oh stop it with the bullshit already. HALVING THIS HALVING THAT. This is obviously due to the corona panic, just like in every other market.

Human panic is unpredictable. We could see Bitcoin go down to three digits, no problem. Halving is not going to do squat at the moment.

People have only started panicking. We are not even in the eye of the storm yet.

You are right.  That move was a first for crypto, and it is worrysome. It could be an indicator (much as we don't like it, deny it) that the market/trend has changed in some fundamental way.

For me the real negative sign was the failure, in an exponential spike, of 13500 and 10500 (twice), BELOW the ATH.  That had not happened before. Exponential rises to ATH are temporary exhaustions, but below (in TA) signal long bear trends.

Of course, there is the argument that BTC is not like other markets, but with this move in lockstep with stocks etc, it is looking more like BTC has matured .

Now lets hear the bull case.

Federal Reserve to print $6 Trillion

European Central Bank to print €1.1 Trillion

People's Bank of China to print ¥2.8 Trillion

Bank of England to print £200 Billion

Bank of Korea to print ₩11.7 Trillion

Bank of Japan to print ¥12 Trillion

This is why bitcoin was created.

The price of bitcoin may set a new record in the next twelve months. It’s not going to happen overnight. My best guess is that it will take institutional investors 2–3 months to triage their current portfolio issues. Another 3–6 months to research new opportunities like distressed debt, special situations, crypto, etc. Then, as they begin making allocations, those markets will really begin to rise.

Halving, 2012: Neat!
