Title: BitFinex Sentiment Index: vote with your wallet not with a click Post by: myself on December 05, 2012, 07:55:44 PM https://i.imgur.com/kgD4K.jpg (http://bit.ly/11GIrpv)
web page to view BSI : https://bitfinex.com/pages/bsi (http://bit.ly/TDcZCv) BSI is sentiment index based on Bitfinex users actions not based on a poll, yes BSI use the approach "vote with your wallet not with a click" if a user is not on the market ( he is not long or short) he does not count so if anyone wants to change how the BSI look he needs to put money on the market and go long or short. example if there are 2 user in the market user 1 100 bitcoins long user 2 100 bitcoins short BSI will be 1:1 Title: Re: BitFinex Sentiment Index: vote with your wallet not with a click Post by: lucif on December 05, 2012, 08:06:11 PM wow. cool!

Its cuz, there is no USD available for longs.Price is going to rocket very high, very soon. Exactly, there is no credit available in USD for people to be able to take a long position. So the only positions available are short positions in BTC and that's what generates the bearish sentiment.
