31 august and the poll is about to get obsolete again. Just in time. Nice work, bitches
So what's most likely "the price is right" for 30 september, maybe $6000?

Russia ban Bitcoin
<-->PUMP
Nah, "Russia ban" is out of the question. Putin was on TV just now, discussing cryptocurrencies, said "I'm aware of Central Bank's position" , but "it's important not to create too many barriers".

Jihan Wu of Bitmain imho, made MILLIONS on this pump and dump
Correct me if I'm wrong, but running
pump and dump scheme doesn't come with 100% guarantee of success, right?
If 90% of the pump cycle is manipulator, and 10% are suckers, and the same for the dump cycle, the result is not much profit for manipulator.

Once bitcoin was out of the bear run (transitioned into a bull run), we can still use the approximate $250 price stability point of 2015 as our starting reference. Accordingly, it took about a year to triple to $750-ish, and then it took about 9 more months to triple again to $2,500-ish.. .and then it took about 3 months to triple again to $7,500-ish....
Funny, but I've been making this graph, to show how last 5 doubling events since $250 look like two distinct exponents:
270 days
270 days
90 days
90 days
90 days
The question is, how much longer the second exponent will last...

Personally, I came from a PM background so had a healthy hatred of that fiat trash already. I also had recently read Neal Stephenson's Baroque Cycle, a monumental work of historical fiction that deals with the nature of money and cryptrography that I would strongly recommend hodlers to read. So my response to discovering Bitcoin was more like "OMFG... ... ...an IMPLEMENTATION!!!"
Personal favorite. Short and sweet.

You're only awarded them if your BTC transferred between addresses you own between November 11th and a couple of days ago. They didn't tell anyone this until after the fork. So most of you peons are officially 'inactive' and therefore toast.
http://www.ub.com/project/getEligibility
All users who transfer Bitcoins from his/her own address to his/her own address between Block 494000 and Block 498777 (11 November 2017 to 12 December 2017 GMT) will be eligible if the transaction meets the following criteria.
The output address (receiving address) must also be listed as one of the input addresses and cannot be a totally new address
The output address (receiving address) must end up with a balance of more than 0.01 BTC
If you are not sure if the operation is complete, please make two transfers.
How deeply mysterious that they only outlined this after the fork.

Get real.
Bitcoin Segwit is not under attack by Bitcoin Cash. Rather, Bitcoin Cash is competing with Bitcoin Segwit in the marketplace.
Then how would you explain such ridiculous terms as "Operation DragonSlayer"? As you can imagine, Bitcoin is the "dragon" here and Bitcoin Cash is its "slayer". Pretty aggressive tone.

I looked at hourly stats from Bitstamp in 2017, and the biggest drops from ATH look like this:
ATH = 2631.204711 -> 1860.808877 (100% -> 70.72% drop)
ATH = 4941.708812 -> 3011.191850 (100% -> 60.93% drop)
ATH = 7719.501657 -> 5704.976298 (100% -> 73.90% drop)
ATH = 19572.557343 -> 13775.041897 (100% -> 70.38% drop)

Damn, by drop calculations expired rather quickly. We're at 2/3 of ATH level now.
For comparison, if we'll take this drop
4941.7 -> 3011.2
and multiply it by 4, it would look like
19766.8 -> 12044.8

I don't like 'electronic gizmos' because it's like 'I have bitcoins' advertisement.
For long-term storage, you can put your wallet.dat into encrypted container, now you just have a small file, very easy to store, very easy to hide. Copy it to a dozen old flash drives, even diskettes, bury them in a dozen different places.
New you have deniability and it's pretty safe from loss/theft.

Kodak, wow just wow, 400% in two days - not bad for a company that destroyed itself by ignoring digital photos.
Here's a script for any ailing company:
1. Start pushing an internal cryptocoin or blockchain integration agenda
2. Quietly buy up company stock shares for 6 months
3. Publically announce said crypto agenda, even it is complete vaporware
4. Watch shares of stock
get pumped jump 400-500% overnight
5. Profit !
And rename company to Kodak Blockchain, of course.

It's not impossible to move 600 or so 100oz silver bars, but it's very inconvenient. Even if you dig a hole in a ground, someone might see you. Or government will take your land via eminent domain. Or something Venezuela-level happens nationwide, and your better leave the country asap. Crossing the border with 600 of 100oz silver bars would be impossible, even if you lift a lot.

On the other hand, it might be worth putting an encrypted private key into at least one safe safe.
Most of my BTC is on hardware wallets and a smaller part on exchanges for trading purposes (probably only around 10% currently) so I feel comfortable with my storing strategy. But I wouldn't mind "diversifying" a small percentual part of my storing into an online third party *IF* it was fully insured... and no custody fee. That's what I meant.
I know, but you won't get a fully insured storage without paying an insurance fee in one form or another. If you pay it directly you know what you're getting into... with a proper contract. If you're getting the storage "free" you're paying it behind the scenes, potentially through the bank or exchange trading your Bitcorns. And at that point the counterparty risk increases dramatically. And I think we all know that banks don't keep sufficient backups and whine for bailouts when they fuck up.
And if they'll receive government's bailouts, that will be in USD, not BTC, obviously.

I hit 50 in mid 2021, it's probably a good milestone to retire and start a new life. Selling 10-20% at that time would be easy, no struggles at all. But 3.5 years is a long time to wait. Meanwhile, life is hard, and I haven't traveled anywhere for 9 years.

So, what's the alternative to capitalism in your book? Cause I don't see anything wrong with it. It's the only system, if unobstructed, that self-regulates. Everything else is artificially steered by humans, humans that are inherently incapable of seeing the bigger picture of all the interactions in a system as complex as our planet. And so far I haven't even read about anything that comes even remotely close to capitalism.
Democracy on the other hand... is just the opposite extreme of authoritarian regimes and ultimately not much different.
Capitalism self-regulates just fine in some cases, like it will determine the number of barbershops in a town. But there are other cases: bank runs, monopolies, etc.

Bank runs are only a problem because banks lend out 50 times more than they have.
It's just an example of an unstable system. There are plenty of such examples, aside from banks. Sometimes a small problem for a company might create a self-fulfilling prophecy, and lead to bigger and bigger problems.

Yes, and that's a good thing, as we just covered.
It's not a good thing. We need atmospheric temperature to be lower than normal human body temperature. Plus, our cognitive abilities suffer from high CO2. Anyone who tried to study in a stuffy room with poor ventilation knows that. We already went from 300 to 400 ppm in one lifetime.

O.k.... fair enough...
Even if you have not been predicting BTC down... you still did say sideways... so, that seems a bit presumptuous, even though such sideways could be possible .. and even down is possible... but like I already mentioned, I don't really see any conclusive evidence of waning interest that suggests that it is more likely that we are in a 2014 scenario as compared with a early 2013 scenario.. even though there are others who are suggesting deadness for the next several months and even a need to correct down to $3k-ish.
Hmm... no, I didn't say sideways. I said "we might spend a second third of 2018 inching back to 1/1/2018 levels". That's not sideways. And you saw my graph with a tiny train. That "cute straight line" going where?

If your chart does not include a new ATH this year, what you have is a bearish chart.
You can't just say "wait 3-5 years for new ATH" and demand that people treat this as a bullish prediction.

Well that was a big squeeze a 400$ increase in just 15 minutes shows signs of Bitcoin's strength and its bulls are showing that they are no pushover when it comes to price action. 9,000$- 9,200$ is the next target if we have stayed above 8,800 to confirm that we broke it. The bull flag is looking good and reaching that target has a high chance because of the increasing volume as well. If the RSI on the daily trend will hit double bottom in 40 this will confirm BTC is going on the bullish side.
Ranging between the daily 50 MA and 200 MA is just noise. Your confirmation is daily price breaking through the 200 MA, testing and holding.
Both daily 50 MA and 200 MA seems to be rising, next week 50MA will be around $8500 and 200MA will be $10300.
Maybe the price will bounce between $9000 and $10000 for a while...

Russian Banker Warns, Tighter Crypto Regulations Will Hurt Blockchain DevelopmentA ban on cryptocurrencies on state level would endanger the development of blockchain technologies and prevent the disclosure of the full potential of digital currencies, according to German Gref, a prominent banker and former minister of economy and trade of the Russian Federation. Although he admits he does not use cryptocurrencies, Gref notes that he considers them a source of financing for the blockchain development. In April, he said the technology was still “unripe and overvalued.”
German Gref is the president of Sberbank, which is the largest bank in Russia and among the biggest in Europe. Earlier this year, reports suggested that Russia’s “savings bank” was planning to circumvent local regulations and offer clients overseas crypto-trading services.
Gref also shared his opinion that the majority of countries do not recognize cryptocurrency because of its decentralization. “No state will part with the monopoly on money issuance. Most governments believe that cryptocurrency is a property and, like any other property, must be taxable,” he said, quoted by Kommersant, a leading Russian business daily. The banker also cautioned that investing in digital assets is associated with high risks.

Played with different SMA intervals, until 3 bottoms lined up perfectly (at 56-hour SMA):
Looks like a falling wedge:
https://www.investopedia.com/university/charts/charts7.aspWhen the pattern completes, and the price breaks out of wedge, it is usually in the opposite direction the wedge was pointed. This is why it is called a reversal pattern. For example, if a wedge is angled downward—called a "falling wedge"—the price will often break above the top of the pattern and rally.
Bullish.

Hey Phil
Do you agree with Donald Trump when he says that Russia is America’s friend and the EU is America’s foe?
I agree that Russia is America’s "competitor", that seems to be the right word:
https://www.rferl.org/a/trump-view-putin-competitor-not-enemy-provokes-ire-in-congress-mccain-corker-menendez/29360576.htmlU.S. President Donald Trump's assertion that Russia is a "competitor," not an "enemy" has provoked alarm and outrage among some prominent lawmakers in Washington.

The daily 200 MA is falling pretty steeply these days. At this rate, it won't be much longer until it encounters the 50 MA for a golden cross.
Assuming the 50 MA flattens out around current prices, this would bring us to mid-September-ish. This is how it played out the last time we had a golden cross in 2015: the 200 MA fell to meet a flat 50 MA.
200 MA fall would slow down, pretty soon. It would be just barely under $8000 in September. It might even stop there...
We would be very lucky if the price (let alone 50 MA) reaches $8000 in September.

If Trump needs Russian help to defeat the ((deep state)), then so be it. They may have allied to fight the most dangerous enemy in the world, the ((deep state)).
Furthermore, I have no problem with cozying up to Russia, and distancing ourselves from Western Europe if it furthers our national interests.
Not a debate about which intelligence service is more honest than another intelligence service (hint they are both dishonest).
There is no debate. The President of the United States should side with his own country.
They don't represent "the country". They're actual people with their own personal agendas. They want to destroy Trump, and he should side with them?

It’s one factor but needs to be viewed in a broader context, including threat scenarios.
The bit the alt-right completely misses is when the walls go up, most of them are so poorly educated and poor that most of them will be on the wrong side of the wall, and the wrong end of the sentry guns. By working to destroy social protections, the rootless, low educated, white males who are Steve Bannons troops are only digging themselves a hole.
I intend to be inside the walls. But I would rather that there were no walls at all and we all managed to get along peacefully.
If the walls do go up, it is because we have made bad choices as a society and focused on ourselves to the exclusion of all others, enough to make those others desperate and dangerous.
Yet you're against peaceful relations with Russia. Walls might protect you from poor "low educated white males" masses, but they provide zero protection from nukes, you know.

Here’s the thing. In some ways the objective truth doesn’t matter.
The appearance to the world is that the American President is a weak fool. That damages American interests and it damages Western interests by extension.
The "appearance" is created and managed by the media, at least 90% of it. President himself through his actions and polices controls maybe 10%.
The media can demonize anyone, or make someone a hero, easily.
So take a guess who is responsible for "damaging American interests and Western interests by extension" here.

Putin assumed Mueller investigators want to come in Moscow to interrogate recently indicted 12 Russians, so he said "I'll allow it, but you'll have to let our investigators do the same". Tit for tat.
But of course he's 100% wrong. Mueller got his PR moment, that's it. He doesn't need to prove anything. Why would he need to interrogate those 12 Russians? It makes no sense.

I guess it depends on the scale and what would you consider "old highs"...
https://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/cupandhandle.aspAs a stock forming this pattern tests old highs, it is likely to incur selling pressure from investors who previously bought at those levels; selling pressure is likely to make price consolidate with a tendency toward a downtrend trend for a period of four days to four weeks, before advancing higher. A cup and handle is considered a bullish continuation pattern and is used to identify buying opportunities.

I'm afraid once fiat conversion is unnecessary, they'll move the tracking to the actual goods, as they're already doing for assets with substantial value, e.g., cars, real estate etc - as pointed out several times in recent posts.
Exactly. And they'll even apply it retroactively:
http://www.cityam.com/264481/mystery-bankers-wife-losses-anti-corruption-order-appealThe high-rolling wife of an anonymous banker has been defeated in her push to overturn efforts by the National Crime Agency (NCA) to make her reveal how she was able to afford properties in Britain worth £22m.
A High Court judge overturned an attempt by the woman, identified as Mrs A, to block the NCA’s use of one of its first-ever “unexplained wealth orders” (UWOs) – new powers to battle corruption which force owners of assets worth £50,000 or more to prove they acquired them legitimately.
The NCA’s order said that Mrs A – who is the wife of a banker from a non-EEA country – had to reveal the source of her income, or face having the properties taken away from her.
The new orders – which reverse the burden of proof, forcing those suspected of gaining assets through crime to prove they were legally obtained – came into effect in January.
The court was told Mrs A had made lavish purchases, including spending over £16.3m over a decade at luxury department store Harrods, and has access to fine wines, private jets and luxurious properties.

They'll publish her name eventually, as it seems they want to make an example.
The point is, it might affect some of us in the future, as £50,000 is not that much.
I guess the lesson here: sometimes it's better to rent expensive things instead of buying them.

I'm not thrilled with the fact that they are holding over 150K BTC in one multisign address, even though it is a cold wallet. Hopefully it is more than a 2 of 3 multisign; otherwise, all one needs to do is compromise 2 of 3 keys to steal that amount of BTC. Bitfinex already had multisign addresses compromised in the past. Also, it would have been nice if they gave us some kind of supporting document listing their fiat holdings.
Edit: Just looked. It's a 3 of 6 multisign. I guess that is a little better.
I certainly hope they have the 6 keys stored in separate locations and have a way to airgap the signing process.
I bet it's something like this:

Posing as "locals" with a grudge, a bit like realRoach but slightly more sophisticated, sickening posts that are suposed to suck in the stupid (it worked). Big business like facebook have been accepting viral adds, and fake news stories funded directly or indirectly from the Kremlin, in a cyber war to try and divide Europe and weaken what they consider an enemy.
Internet is global, there are no borders.
If some Chinese wish to express their opinion on Brexit, or some Russians on U.S. midterms, good for them I say. It's their right. Deal with it. What's the best way to fight bad, false information? Maybe with good, truthful information, idk... Centrally not with censorship.

UWOs are a perfect example of the decline of the legal system in this country. Pretty sure we'll be locking people up based on rumours next.
On the face of it, the Unexplained Wealth Order against Zamira Hajiyeva shows the UK cracking down on the torrent of corrupt money that gushes in to the City of London every single second. But dig deeper.
Hajiyev’s husband had fallen out of favour with the appallingly kleptocratic Aliev regime in Azerbaijan – a dictatorship whose corruption can be measured by the infallible indicator that Tony Blair is currently working for it. Hundreds of billions have been plundered from Azerbaijan’s oil revenue by the Azeri oligarchs.
So is the British government going after the very substantial assets in the UK of the ruling Aliev family? No. Is it going after the very substantial assets in the UK of the oligarchs surrounding the Aliev family? No. It is only going after almost the only Azeri oligarch who fell foul of the regime, and is taking an action which the Baku dictator will applaud rather than decry.
While her father was still dictator of Uzbekistan, Gulnara Karimova was subject to seizure of looted wealth and investigation in Switzerland, France and Sweden, among others. In the UK, where she had a home and very substantial assets, no action whatsoever.
What are we to make of Theresa May’s huffing and puffing about the Skripal affair, when the UK’s richest resident is Alisher Usmanov, who is Vladimir Putin’s old flatmate, right hand man in the media and business world and chairman of Gazprominvestholdings? There is no chance whatsoever any action will be taken against Usmanov, who acquired his assets in the most dubious manner imaginable. Usmanov is far too entrenched in the City.
These people interact with the British “elite” in any number of surprising ways. Claudia Winkleman’s husband made big money from producing a vanity film project for the Azeri dictator’s daughter. Former Foreign Secretary Dr David Owen is Usmanov’s factotum in the UK. Just two of many thousands of links that tie the UK’s gilded elite in with the looted wealth.
The Conservative Party has directly received donations totaling over £3 million from Russian oligarchs. That buys a lot of influence. But more important still is the influence of the City of London, where wideboy bankers grow rich on the World’s most sophisticated and “respectable” money laundering operation. While the Tories are determined to bluster us into a new cold war to benefit the military, industrial and security complex, none of the sanctions taken to date and none that will be taken have had any serious deleterious effect on the holders of the hundreds of billions of money looted from the Russian people during the Western mandated and organised privatisation of Russia’s mineral and industrial assets. Even as false rage over Salisbury fills the airwaves, the oligarchs are privately being reassured their money and lifestyles are safe.
In a United Kingdom dominated by the cesspit that is the City of London, it is not just that money talks. It is that nobody else is heard.

Nice round number. But it might be prudent to choose a number that's not too round. To beat the crowd, you know... I bet lots of people think selling the day we hit 100K.

https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-forex-lawsuit/big-investors-sue-16-banks-in-u-s-over-currency-market-rigging-idUSKCN1NC34JBig investors sue 16 banks in U.S. over currency market rigging
NEW YORK (Reuters) - A group of large institutional investors including BlackRock Inc and Allianz SE’s Pacific Investment Management Co has sued 16 major banks, accusing them of rigging prices in the roughly $5.1 trillion-a-day foreign exchange market.
The banks being sued are: Bank of America, Barclays, BNP Paribas, Citigroup, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, HSBC, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, Japan’s MUFG Bank, Royal Bank of Canada, Royal Bank of Scotland, Societe Generale, Standard Chartered and UBS.
The plaintiffs in Wednesday’s lawsuit accused the banks of violating U.S. antitrust law by conspiring from 2003 to 2013 to rig currency benchmarks including the WM/Reuters Closing Rates for their own benefit by sharing confidential orders and trading positions.
This manipulation was allegedly done through chat rooms with such names as “The Cartel,” “The Mafia” and “The Bandits’ Club,” through tactics with such names as “front running,” “banging the close,” “painting the screen” and “taking out the filth.”
“By colluding to manipulate FX prices, benchmarks, and bid/ask spreads, defendants restrained trade, decreased competition, and artificially increased prices, thereby injuring plaintiffs,” the 221-page complaint said.

Following the 2018 midterm elections, the U.S. will see two new pro-Bitcoin governors sworn into office.
Jared Polis (D-CO) and Gavin Newsom (D-CA) both won out against their respective Republican contenders last night, November 6, 2018. While their campaign points and platforms were capitalized by a progressive agenda, their favorable attitudes toward cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology have caught the crypto community’s attention.

Previously, we have been unable to drop the Bitcoin part of their names, because it simply left 'cash' which is of course ambiguous.
I guess its obvious but, we can now correctly relegate them to the proper Altcoin categorisation by using:
ABC Cash
SV Cash

China launched a rover early Saturday destined to land on the far side of the moon, a global first that would boost Beijing's ambitions to become a space superpower, state media said.
The Chang'e-4 lunar probe mission—named after the moon goddess in Chinese mythology—launched on a Long March 3B rocket from the southwestern Xichang launch centre at 2:23 am (1823 GMT), according to the official Xinhua news agency.
The blast-off marked the start of a long journey to the far side of the moon for the Chang'e-4 mission, expected to land around the New Year to carry out experiments and survey the untrodden terrain.
The experiments also involve planting potato and other seeds, according to Chinese media reports.

I find it sad that the fascists and the communists are no longer hiding behind their previous softer labels and are being a bit more bold in feeling they should publicly express their fascist and communist ideals so boldly.
At least for a while the communists were calling themselves democratic socialists. Fascists were ok with staying in their KKK tea parties or wherever they were hiding.
Now they're just inundating social media with their nonsense as if it's perfectly normal.
It's the price I'm willing to accept, if the end result is the "mainstream" losing the monopoly on narrative.

Prediction time? OK - I will have a pop at it:
This dip seems pretty much right on time; mid January. It's been the lowest price point of the past four years, except for last year, which was coming down from the ATH, just like 2014 was.
Therefore, if history repeats itself the current few days (if not now, then no more than over the next three or four days) will be the lowest Bitcoin price of this year. We are if anything a day or two ahead of schedule.
Some things are indeed quite predictable, it's pretty weird. Like on schedule.
I even saw the Jan 8 high almost a month ago:
Just for fun, I'd like to make an additional prediction: Jan 8 for the date of the highest price.

So far they published videos of those 2 dudes walking around Salisbury while being Russians, not much else.
Not a single video puts them on the scene of the crime. We don't see them touching the doorknob, we don't see them near the bench.

There are plenty of CCTV cameras around town to reconstruct their movements. And movements of Skripals.
Why not publish the official map and official timeline, then?

3. I don’t know shit about the Skripals but I do know that Putin doesn’t give a damn about human rights and will happily kill anyone that presents the faintest threat.
It is possible that Skripals presented a threat to people who "disappeared" them.

Does your line start in 2013 (as shown in the chart)? or does your line still apply very well to BTC prices if you go back further for context? Maybe starting in 2011 would skew your line too much?
I don't think such ancient history matters.
It's just 2x per year line, I don't claim it predicts the future, or even fits the past particularly well.
It starts at $3200 and goes back...

He's correct the level of journalism in this space is on par with straight bloggers.
It only appears that way because this happens to be a niche that you are particularly educated on. It's the same for every other subject too. Remember this when you are listening to "journalism" on some subject you aren't that knowledgeable on. If you were more knowledgeable on that subject it would sound just as bad as it does for the thing you are knowledgeable on.
Right, right...

Governments can crack down on metals without much effort.
They would declare it "illegal possession" unless bought through official, licensed channels. That's it.
https://www.rt.com/russia/442527-gold-busted-yakutia-russia/The 52-year-old man was busted in the forest carrying a bag with about 13kg (29lbs) of gold in the form of bullions and "non-uniform powder", the local branch of the FSB told journalists. The market worth of the treasure is estimated at over $500,000. The man, who failed to explain how he came into possession of the gold, is facing up to five years in prison for illegal possession of the metal.
Yakutia, also known as the Republic of Sakha, is one of the biggest centers of gold extraction and processing in Russia. However regulations on precious metals and gemstones are pretty restrictive - a measure meant to limit theft, unlicensed prospecting, as well as their use for payment for illegal activities. Individuals may possess them, but only as jewelry or as bullions purchased through a bank.
Still some people answer the age-old call of gold, either hoping to legalize their treasures in some way or simply hoping that the restrictions would be lifted someday. Just a week ago a man in Yakutia was sentenced to two years in prison for illegal possession of over 28kg (62lbs) of the metal, which he claimed to have purchased from a stranger he never saw again, RIA Novosti reported.

I don't want to sound whiny or anything, but.. homer, wouldn't it be easy for you to remove the white background?
Looks better without it.
Well, normally I save my files as jpg because... I'm old. There is no transparency for jpg and GIF doesn't have the level of colours I need so it would mean learning something new. I'm not averse to learning but I think I'm getting to the point where learning something new comes at the expense of forgetting something (I've run out of the human cognitive equivalent of a computer's RAM) so it's really fear that keeps me from removing the white. I'll try to grow a pair and learn how to adapt and remove the white.... but it might take some time

Yeah, but India is one of the most populated places on earth. Fix India and teach them sanitation and you've got a clean Ganges. Shitting in my toilet doesn't mean that yours is about to get dirty though. Just like an ant colony shitting in my backyard won't pollute that of my neighbour.

Opsec lessons from Jameson Lopp:
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/12/technology/how-to-disappear-surveillance-state.htmlMr. Lopp, a self-described libertarian who works for a Bitcoin security company, had long been obsessed with the value of privacy, and he set out to learn how thoroughly a person can escape the all-seeing eyes of corporate America and the government. But he wanted to do it without giving up internet access and moving to a shack in the woods.
Many celebrities and wealthy people, wary of thieves, paparazzi and other predators, have tried to achieve Mr. Lopp’s vision of complete privacy. Few have succeeded.
Mr. Lopp viewed the exercise as something of an experiment, to find out the lengths he’d have to go to extricate himself from the databases and other repositories that hold our personal information and make it available to anyone willing to pay for it. That helps explain why he was willing to describe the steps he’s taken with me (though he did so from a burner phone, without disclosing his new location).

Only accessible by ferry, the remote island has only about 50 permanent residents, and can feel like your private playground.
The number of undocumented migrants located on Thursday on various parts of the small island of Gavdos, south of Crete, Greece, is 140, according to police from Chania on the nearby island of Crete.
According to sources, the migrants arrived on a large fishing boat in the area of Tripiti, just off the southern coast of the island, from where they managed to reach the shore by themselves.
Hmm...

"As a U.S. citizen, I have to pay taxes no matter where I live in the world. We do not get to stop paying U.S. taxes just because we leave the U.S.," he said.
He said his main concern right now was for his girlfriend and that he wishes he'd never gotten her involved.
"She would still be in Bangkok right now, enjoying her life if not for me. I hope to get her someplace nice so we can live a quiet life away from the insanity and perhaps capture, once again, a small fraction of the freedom we had on the seastead."

“We believe he is still in Phuket. I am searching for him so talk with him and to enforce to law,” Col Kathatorn added.
Provincial Police Deputy Commander Col Witoon Kongsudjai confirmed to The Phuket News, “Right now we are preparing to get evidence against the entities responsible for building the seastead.

They are in good spirits, but still are not out of the woods yet as they still need to leave the region for fear of local intergovernmental relations leading to his potential extradition back to Thailand. As a result for their own safety they will not be posting again until they are home, but he wanted me to thank all of you on his behalf for your kind words and well wishes, and said he hopes to be back on the forum posting soon. He didn't give me much other information for obvious reasons, but at least we know he has made it out of the country, which is very good news. Hopefully we can help bring awareness to this issue so others do not find themselves in a similar situation in the future. Godspeed Elwar.

Probably the question of rules and regulations, as usual.

Try declaring sovereignty in a trailer on the mainland and see what happens.
It is a very powerful idea. Which makes it dangerous.
Nothing will happen. Declaring anything is just words, and words are protected by the First Amendment.
Actions matter, like if someone would start breaking laws, and stops paying taxes, such actions will invite trouble.

I think an old supertanker or massive container ship would be a better option.. and a lot easier to obtain...
Granted, there would be more upfront work involved to make it usable.. but with those huge wide open holds, you could basically build in whatever infrastructure you want.. Kinda like buying an old warehouse and turning it into high-end flats...

I was reading over some WO comments from the July 2015 pump to 320. The vibe was pretty similar to this and unfortunately dumped back below 200 about 40 days later. If we can stay above 6K for 40 days then I believe we get all time highs this year. If not then I expect to see a ferocious dump back to 5k or less.
Either way this pump is a lot of fun and everyone will know if we dump that its just a blessing to get cheap coins and not the path to 1500 and final capitulation.
Its a bull market ya know
The russian government didnt want to buy bitcoins in 2015.
I guess they are behind this rally. If they started buying, we will see a crypto cold war. Which side will buy more?

I find it amusing how the somewhat maligned teenagers in their parents basements making charts on tradingview and crypto twitter have issued better calls than many of these "experts".
It's scientifically proven that experts are not very good at predicting the future. Interesting article:
https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2019/06/how-to-predict-the-future/588040/The integrators outperformed their colleagues in pretty much every way, but especially trounced them on long-term predictions. Eventually, Tetlock bestowed nicknames on the experts he’d observed: The highly specialized hedgehogs knew “one big thing,” while the integrator foxes knew “many little things.”
Hedgehogs are deeply and tightly focused. Some have spent their career studying one problem. They fashion tidy theories of how the world works based on observations through the single lens of their specialty. Foxes, meanwhile, “draw from an eclectic array of traditions, and accept ambiguity and contradiction,” Tetlock wrote. Where hedgehogs represent narrowness, foxes embody breadth.
Incredibly, the hedgehogs performed especially poorly on long-term predictions within their specialty. They got worse as they accumulated experience and credentials in their field. The more information they had to work with, the more easily they could fit any story into their worldview.
In Tetlock’s 20-year study, both the broad foxes and the narrow hedgehogs were quick to let a successful prediction reinforce their beliefs. But when an outcome took them by surprise, foxes were much more likely to adjust their ideas. Hedgehogs barely budged. Some made authoritative predictions that turned out to be wildly wrong—then updated their theories in the wrong direction. They became even more convinced of the original beliefs that had led them astray. The best forecasters, by contrast, view their own ideas as hypotheses in need of testing. If they make a bet and lose, they embrace the logic of a loss just as they would the reinforcement of a win. This is called, in a word, learning.

Guys... No need to time the top.
- Set a financial target for a comfortable life for you + loved ones.
- Add 30% to that as a safety margin.
- HoDL your coinage until half of it is worth the above target.
- Sell said half of coinage (be careful how you do it).
- HoDL other half.
- Enjoy your life.
- Reap the new profits gained by your HoDL stash.
- A comfortable life is not a lazy life. Be productive.
- Keep working if your job is creative and enjoyable.
That's my plan.
That doesn't work for me. I don't have a specific financial target, and lifestyle can be flexible after a certain point... But I definitely want to catch
this top and sell 20-25% instead of missing it and feeling stupid just because a predefined "financial target" was a bit too high.
I want to retire and enjoy life
now, ok well maybe I can wait 2 years, but not 6 years! No way.
Catching the top is tricky though, esp. for a non-trader, so I'm thinking of selling 1-2% at every ATH, or something like that. It's too early to think about the exact strategy, will figure it out later. Maybe even oversell a little bit to rebuy later? For a non-trader that's playing with fire... might risk it anyway.

Moon news:
https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/2019/06/massive-blob-discovered-moon-surface/Huge mystery blob found under the moon's far side
Researchers have discovered something massive lurking underneath the far side of the moon: a mysterious blob with the mass akin to a pile of metal five times the size of the Big Island of Hawaii.
The structure, described in a recent study published in Geophysical Research Letters, sits at least 180 miles beneath the South Pole-Aitken basin—a colossal crater punched into the lunar landscape billions of years ago, when the moon's initially molten surface had cooled just enough for impacts to leave a lasting mark.
The blob is likely related to the crater's formation, and it may be the remnants of an ancient impactor's metal core, says study coauthor Peter James of Baylor University.

There are over 38 known clusters of these meteor showers..that we know of today. Combined with NEO's and comet's, these are what cause me worry from time to time.
Small rocks are harmless, they burn in the atmosphere. Meteor showers are pretty, and cause zero damage.
Big rocks are rare, and unlikely to hit Earth.
Even if/when is happens, they might miss highly populated areas and not cause a lot of damage anyway.
Really big rocks are all discovered, counted etc. No worries here. None of them on the collision course.

A support line that runs all the way back to the dawn of time. At $2.22 at the bottom of the crash in November 2011. A support line that held us up during the depths of the cryptowinter.

HM does a 2014-15 fractal overlay quite frequently. Does anybody or would anybody have a 2015-16 fractal potential overlay? This would potentially mirror what we are expected to see up to 12 months after the halving in 2020.
I’d be interested to see how the price is predicted to play out, if as HM predicts we hit the halving at or around $12,000 (matching the 2014-15 fractal).
It's hard to compare very slow 2015-16 period to crazy 2019.

https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/invest-1-000-bitcoin-instead-110127803.htmlShould you invest £1,000 in Bitcoin instead of relying on the State Pension?
Despite the City’s doubts, Bitcoin now looks as if it’s here to stay and the crypto asset seems to have taken on a new role in financial markets.
...
These developments seem to suggest many investors believe Bitcoin offers the same kind of safe haven qualities as gold.
The two assets do have some things in common. Neither is controlled by a government or central bank and there will only ever be a limited amount of gold and Bitcoins in the world. Further, gold can be a great store of value, and you can use it to buy or sell other assets all over the world. The same goes for Bitcoin.

Some of you may get a kick out of this article...
Of course, technical analysis sometimes seems to work, says Janny Kul, who crunched the numbers on hundreds of TA research papers. Likewise, a coin flipped several times might yield five heads in a row. But falsely assuming that the coin’s past landings affect the probability of its future landings is wrongheaded. Indeed, the fallacy even has a name—“statistical independence.”
https://decrypt.co/9002/technical-analysis-the-art-of-wrongly-predicting-the-future"Coin’s past landings affect" analogy is stupid. There's a big chance tomorrow's price will be close to today's price, everyone knows that. Tomorrow's price is not "statistically independent" from today's price.
Multi-year trend lines also can be useful for multi-year predictions.
Even past 2-3 months can be useful, like right now we're experiencing 80 days of sideways. So there is a good chance we'll continue moving sideways for at least another week.

Haven't really made my mind about it but for now I am planning to dump %15-20 of my stash for every $10k increment starting from $50k and make the final blow at $100k.
Also I'll buy back every piece I dumped if the price goes $10k lower from where I sell the coins.
For example;
Sold %20 @ $50k. Now there are 2 possibilities.
A) the price goes down for $10k to $40k and I buy back and increase the btc amount,
B) It goes higher and reaches $60k. Then I'll domp et again another %16-17.
If A) happens in the first round > back to hodling
If B) happens > again another 2 possibilities A) and B) but this time it's happening @ $60k.
Will probably play that game to maximize the profits till it reaches $100k. Not really decided on anything just thinking. I may completely ignore the "buy back" part too.
I think the trick here is to avoid the unprofitable Scenario 1 and stick to Scenario 2.
Scenario 1:
Scenario 2:
So I'm going to play the "buy back" game only if the price drops significantly, like 75%.

Can you quantify the 'good chance' and why the week time duration of your prediction?
It's a gut feeling, not quantifiable math. And it's not a week but "at least a week", so could be longer. Maybe 2-3 weeks.
I think the analogy works when you consider the prediction is not whether the price is close to short term past but whether it moves up or down relative. That's the coin flip part. At least that's how I understood it.
There are different types of predictions, from unreliable short-term predictions for traders, to pretty reliable long-term predictions for us holders. It would be wrong to just dismiss all of them.

Something is wrong with your round number of $14,000. It just does not resonate as being an important number. It's not bold enough.
Even if I add bold, like this:
$14,000, it does not do anything for me. Perhaps because $14.000 is too close to $13,880. Its distance is only $120 (which is less than 1%
(which is actually .857143%)), so hopefully you are not saying double top.

Perhaps.
But one issue is that bitcoin tends to be a bit more volatile, so you seem to be projecting (or perhaps hoping) for a kind of price stability that is not very much a part of current BTC price dynamics.
Yeah well, I already made that point:

I think i found something interesting. Bitcoin 15th dec is very important. At least it was very important in 2017 and 2018! What happened on that day? On 15th dec 2017 bitcoin made ATH almost 20k. On the 15th dec 2018 it bottomed at 3k. Could 15th dec 2019 have reversal again? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5208757.msg53318853#msg53318853
I dunno, we were at the peak of an epic bullish rise in December 2017. We were at the absolute, depressing low of the last bear market in December 2018.
It seems December 2019 is like neither of the above, just an accumulation phase. The halving is in May 2020, the current situation is probably more similar to December 2015 or December 2016 (i.e. nothing-ness).
HM promised us mid-December doom-and-gloom, which I assume means 6400, but we'll see.

Trump finally impeached. He belongs to yet another very exclusive club now.
It was rare, because the old standard required impeachment to be bi-partisan.
Now that the threshold is lowered, expect every new president to be impeached, on a pure partisan basis.
It was more symbolic than anything, but at least now maybe future presidents will think twice before asking foreign leaders to investigate their political rivals.
Nothing's wrong with investigating Biden. He shouldn't be above the law just because he's running for President.

Nothing's wrong with investigating Biden. He shouldn't be above the law just because he's running for President.
Should a sitting American president be asking another, newly elected president to investigate his political rival during what was supposed to be a congratulatory phone call? There are separate diplomatic channels for that.
The problem is Trump thinks he can get away with anything. He was just proven wrong about that.
The difference is you think the word investigate means make stuff up. I think it means uncover the truth.
I don't care who's asking who to investigate who, as long as we uncover the truth about corrupt politicians.
Diplomatic channels? Who cares.

Right, so now you're assuming Joe Biden is corrupt...
The threshold to start the investigation is pretty low. I don't have to assume he's 100% guilty. Just probable cause or reasonable suspicion, maybe even less. Just the facts we know about Bidens... it's very fishy.
The framework governing U.S. diplomacy and foreign policy standards cares. You should care too. Trump should have cared, but he didn't, and he paid for it.
The framework and foreign policy standards are for diplomats working for the State Department. U.S. President is above the State Department. He can conduct foreign policy any way he likes.

I get where you are coming from and largely agree, but one can easily carry the value of a good used car in Ag with one hand.
Fair enough, 1000 ounces, approx. 63 lbs/28 kilos valued at $17,900 will likely be the limit for the average able-bodied human and only for short distances unassisted. 4000 ounces valued at $71,600 would be a heavy wheelbarrow load.

Several members of the Diamond Princess crew have appealed for help from the Indian government, and alleged that they are at risk of infection by not being segregated.
So far at least 135 people (including five crew members) have tested positive for the Wuhan coronavirus on board the vessel, amid signs of a full blown outbreak -- one of the largest outside of mainland China.
The cruise ship passengers have been under strict quarantine for over a week now, confined to their cabins as medical personnel conduct tests on the 3,700 people on board.
“We are extremely scared at this point in time,” Binay Kumar Sarkar said in a video obtained by CNN. “Our request is to segregate the crew members from the infected.”
He said neither he nor his colleagues had been checked for the novel coronavirus.
“Only people who are recording temperatures higher than 37.5 degree Celsius are being checked,” Sarkar said. “If Japan cannot take stock of the situation, please ask for assistance. The United Nations and government of India should intervene as soon as possible and help segregate us.”

https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-price-bullrun-may-last-1000-days-as-2020-now-best-average-yearFor 2020, the average for BTC/USD is $9,120, according to Todaro’s calculations. This is higher than even 2017 when the pair reached its current all-time high of $20,000. For that year, the volume-weighted average was $6,125.
Curiously, the metric actually produces a higher value for 2018, despite this being the year that Bitcoin spent in a near-constant bear market bottoming out at $3,100. 2018’s average was $7,657.
Best consecutive 365 days are: [2017.11.01 ... 2018.10.31] with the average price $8666.
Right now it's $8122 and climbing fast, so we should break that record by April.

The fact of the matter is that it was the boomers who voted in socialism in practically the entire world. They deserve to die, and they need to die before we have even the possibility of building something better.
And I'm saying this as someone with old parents. Good parents at that, even. But a few worthwhile people, if they are, do not make up for an entire world run by old people who deliberately make things worse.
If Corona-chan kills most people over 60 and stops unlimited immigration, then it may in the long run turn out to be a good thing. Even better if the world turns on the chinese for releasing it.
Careful what you wish for... Youngsters are extremely pro-Bernie/pro-Corbyn.
https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/02/this-one-chart-explains-why-young-voters-back-bernie-sanders.htmlAn Economist/YouGov poll released this week found that 60 percent of Democrats younger than 30 support either Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren; among those 65 and older, the progressive candidates’ combined total was 27 percent.
That young people are clamoring for radical left-wing reform in such exceptional numbers would be noteworthy enough, were it confined to the United States. But the phenomenon is apparent throughout the Anglophone world.
Millennial leftists lifted Jeremy Corbyn to the leadership of Britain’s Labour party, and their peers would have put him in 10 Downing Street if they’d had their druthers: Exit polls of the 2019 British election found Corbyn’s party winning voters under 30 by roughly 55 percent, even as it claimed just 14 percent of those over 70.

It's Saudis, not virus.
“The market is shocked with the Saudi vow to step up oil production,” said Alan Li, portfolio manager at Atta Capital. “The collapse of oil prices triggered further sell-off of other asset classes.

https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2020-03-09/oil-crash-saudi-arabia-s-price-war-worked-once-but-may-backfireOnce you consider the dependence of the Saudi economy on oil production, the best complete measure of Aramco’s overheads is probably the price at which the country’s budget breaks even — and that’s a whopping $83.60 a barrel, which we haven't seen in more than five years. Russia’s fiscal breakeven is around half that at $42 a barrel, and after sharp improvements in recent years, commercial producers in America’s Permian basin are around the same level.
Of course, at current prices everyone’s losing. Brent dropped as low as $31 a barrel Monday, and should a prolonged price war set in, it could go lower still. That’s where we have to start thinking about all three players’ ability to endure pain.
Riyadh’s race-to-the-bottom strategy only worked in 1985 because it was the lowest-cost producer. Now, its bloated budget means that it’s one of the highest-cost and shakiest players. It remains embroiled in a costly and brutal military quagmire in Yemen, and on Friday arrested senior royals on the grounds they were plotting a coup.
More than four years after Prince Mohammed Bin Salman began the economic reforms that were intended to diversify the economy’s dependence on crude, the prospect of prices ever returning to fiscal breakeven levels looks even more remote. Even Saudi Aramco shares are now trading below their offer price.
Countries embarking on wars often expect they’ll be over in a few months, only to discover their opponents were stronger than they thought. Should this turn into a prolonged fight, Moscow is unlikely to be the first player to fold.

Eventually natural immunities will develop and herd immunity will kick in. But not before at least 80% of the population is infected. This is not guessing, we can compare with other diseases with similar infectiveness.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-51555420Kentaro Iwata, professor at the infectious diseases division of Japan's Kobe University, described the situation on board as "completely inadequate in terms of infection control".
After visiting the ship, Prof Iwata posted a video to YouTube stating that the quarantine measures he witnessed failed to separate the infected from the healthy.
He reported:
Passengers and crew members moving freely between the green zone, which is supposedly infection-free, and the virus-hit red zone
People eating together and sharing living quarters
A failure to wear protective clothing, including among medical staff
No professional infection control specialist on board
Yeah sure, a ship is not a country. It's way worse. Population density on the ship is huge compared to a country. Imagine living in close very proximity to 700 infected passengers, all of them breathing, coughing, etc.
More from that guy:
The expert said he was more afraid of catching the virus on board than he had been working in the field in Africa during the Ebola epidemic and in China during the Sars (severe acute respiratory syndrome) outbreak.

Why do you assume that a replacement must exist
before it collapses!?
Because its value is rooted in psychology. Right now people sell all types of assets (even gold) to buy dollars. Completely illogical, but that's a reality. Dollar will collapse when people will lose faith in it, when they'll rush to sell dollars to buy something else. That "something else" will become a new universally-recognized replacement.
Lots of worldwide value is locked in dollars right now. That value will not disappear. It will flow into "something else", into a replacement vessel.

Finally, some good news:
Coronavirus cases have dropped sharply in South KoreaAmid these dire trends, South Korea has emerged as a sign of hope and a model to emulate. The country of 50 million appears to have greatly slowed its epidemic; it reported only 74 new cases today, down from 909 at its peak on 29 February. And it has done so without locking down entire cities or taking some of the other authoritarian measures that helped China bring its epidemic under control. “South Korea is a democratic republic, we feel a lockdown is not a reasonable choice,” says Kim Woo-Joo, an infectious disease specialist at Korea University.
Behind its success so far has been the most expansive and well-organized testing program in the world, combined with extensive efforts to isolate infected people and trace and quarantine their contacts. South Korea has tested more than 270,000 people, which amounts to more than 5200 tests per million inhabitants—more than any other country except tiny Bahrain.
South Korea’s experience shows that “diagnostic capacity at scale is key to epidemic control,” says Raina MacIntyre, an emerging infectious disease scholar at the University of New South Wales, Sydney. “Contact tracing is also very influential in epidemic control, as is case isolation,” she says.

Even though I'm inclined to be on LS side, I want to keep an open mind, and frankly, Italy's numbers (600-800 deaths every fucking day) are pretty scary.
https://www.rte.ie/news/world/2020/0322/1124706-italy-new-death-toll/However, top health officials sounded, while not upbeat, encouraged to see Sunday's daily deaths fall back from Saturday's grisly 793 to a slightly less shocking 651.
The hardest-hit northern region of Lombardy remained in a critical situation, with 3,456 deaths.
"The figures announced today are lower than those for yesterday," said Italian civil protection service chief Angelo Borrelli.
"I hope, and we all hope, that these figures can be borne out in the coming days. But do not let your guard down."
Italy has sacrificed its economy and liberties by shutting down almost everything to halt the spread of a virus the government views as an existential threat.
Around 80% of cases of Covid-19 will be a mild to moderate illness, close to 14% have severe disease and around 6% are critical.
Generally, you need to be 15 minutes or more in the vicinity of an infected person, within 1-2 metres, to be considered at-risk or a close contact.
