Bitcoin Forum

You've got to be kidding me.  As of now (12:09 p.m. US Central Time) I've been watching the charts on Mt. Gox Live go nuts.  And what about Tradehill?  Last deal...31 minutes ago.  ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!  If I had USD to buy, I'd buy, but I need to SELL first to buy you pussies.  Get picked on too much in high school and now you guys can't play ball?

Yes, I had the same problem. I moved to ExchangeBitcoins.com and I'm getting much better action. I have nothing to do with ExchangeBitcoins.com - I'm just finding better liquidity there than TradeHill. Yesterday I pulled BTC off of TradeHill, moved it over to ExchangeBitcoins.com and got a quick fill. I requested an ACH withdrawal and the money was sitting in my bank account today! With their new bank branch deposit option I think you'll see a large influx of ready buyers and a stronger exchange. Their volume is already gaining on TradeHill and Virtex.

People are pussies for not buying... you're not buying... you are a pussy

LOL! Traders are always buying and always selling.  ;)

Traders use exchanges to transfer value from someone else's pocket to their own...and good ones succeed.  The flip side is that a fair fraction of the user base needs to be able to be induced to lose money.

Sounds like Tradehill, for whatever reason, simply lacks the user base that you traders are after at this point in the game.  If I were a trader I also would be looking for greener pastures.  Sad day for Tradehill, but it seems that they have recognized the problem and are diversifying.

As a BTC accumulator (at present) Tradhill has proven to be a reliable playground so far.  IOW, I have gotten what I wanted, and usually in a timely manner.

here's the biggest problem. and what if everyone was in your boat? they need money to buy first. this pretty much makes you the biggest pussy of all. stop crying like a little girl, just go to mtgox or another exchange.

I think you missed something in my original post Randy.

I bought at 5.  I bought at 7.  I bought at 9.  I bought at 10.20.  I bought at 11.01.  I then had 9 dollars.  I bought at 11.39.  I bought at 11.43.  And now, I have nothing to buy with.  Quit with your non-sequiturs and get off my thread.  Sorry I hit a nerve, you nerd.

oh your thread... i always thought it open to public comments. so what's the point of this thread? you're expecting only certain kinds of comments to pamper you, otherwise you get defensive? it's not like there's going to be an influx of buyers after reading "your" thread. looks like a troll thread to me, so i'm done here... have a good day  ;)

Do you like being gay?

Edit:  The point of this thread is reflected in the subject heading.  There are timid buyers on Tradehill at the moment, so it seems.  Pussy in this case is a synonym for timid because I am feeling bullish.  So yes,  it's egocentric in a sense.

I didnt miss anything buddy, i think you misunderstand supply and demand.

haploid23 expanded on my fairly crude statement with his post.

You bought alot, and now you want to sell. Nobody is buying because they all want to sell too. You're all in the same boat, if you're calling them pussies, then you're calling yourself a pussy too.

No, you missed something or you wouldn't reiterate false premises.  The thread's about timid buyers and low liquidity, not OPs who want to buy and are propagating -- and yes, hoping for -  liquidity.  I bought after I made the first post, too, with what little cash I had in order to bully up the price.  You can thank me for the 11.39 and 11.43. 

Even MTgox volume is way down as of late.

Yeah, but I feel the tension is thick.  I truly suspect this has to do with factors such as google trends and the conference.  I'm sucking up everything I can.  I'm pulling some other buy orders to pick up the loose scraps.

This is why Mt. Gox *is* practically the bitcoin exchange market.

It's the only way to get money in and out in a timely fashion. Other markets are just experiments and curiosities.
The price can change drastically in 30-60 minutes. A trade shouldn't take that long (or even longer)

I say fuck all traders/speculators, so, fuck you OP... pussy

Bitcoin would be better without you and valued at $.80

Godspeed

You read this whole thread and that was the best insult you could come up with?

Geez.  That 'play ball' part was more accurate than I originally thought.

$.80?  Yeah I'm sure that would really work out well for mining.  Once you get sub electricity-cost BTC values with the current number of users, you're looking at market collapse (or, at least the most ridiculous market volatility you may ever see as people buy literally 10's or 100's of thousands of BTC and sell off minutes/hours later).  $.80 worked earlier when you could earn multiple BTC in a week and had a realistic chance of solving a block solo in a small time frame.  Try it now and see what happens.  I dare you.

Yes, I agree.  But TradeHill has things going for it that Mt. Gox doesn't; namely the extreme level of customer service, accountability (they put their faces out constantly), and the fact they haven't been HACKED.  Nonetheless, I'm extremely excited about the new feature (forgot name atm) that will allow transfer of funds and BTC directly between TradeHill and Mt. Gox.  Party time.

It was not an insult, it was a fact!

If Bitcoin was valued at $.80 maybe people would actually spend them buying things and ot only trade them for $ and/or hoard.

Yeah, most miners could just give up because they are in no way better than you, speculators.

I still don't understand what was it that a big part of them we're doing in folding or SETI when there was no money to be made there... but now, all they see is money on their GPU's.

I'm secretelly hoping that GPU mining will become non-profitable and 90% of miners disappears not to be ssen anymore.

I bet Satoshi abandonned the project not because he thought it didn't needed him anymore, but out of embarassment of what Bitcoin started to be.

If you need a wall of text to understand what i trully meant, you are not a pussy, you are a donkey!

I think just for this complete ass clown teenager troll, we should all do a massive sell off BTC dump on tradehill :P

I should redirect you to my thread on the word 'troll.'  My thread, my emotive reaction -- deal with it.  If you'd care to release your emotions on the exchange instead, by all means, I would love for you to do so.  I'd love to buy your coins.

It's not a fact it was your opinion.

Speculators are risk-takers.  So, I'm a risk-taking pussy.  Nice one, smart guy.  Consistently trading and selling minimizes risk.  This can be smart, but its not risky.

If Bitcoin was valued at $.80, you'd have a far fewer merchants to buy anything from.  Increased volatility at this price leads to increased risk on behalf of merchants.

No idea about your SETI comment

Again, don't know, don't care.  But, miners are incredibly good for Bitcoin.  The more miners there are, the more likely it is that the value of Bitcoin increases and/or stabilizes.  More miners = less proportional BTC payout for solved blocks = more time required to gain enough BTC to sell.  Basically, more miners translates into a communal investment.

Satoshi is rich and has no need for involvement.  His rapid financial success was built into Bitcoin's design, and was probably the main reason he actually followed through on its creation.

I don't need a wall of text confusing your opinion for fact.  "Pussy traders" is an opinion, not a fact.  This should have been obvious, and it also should have been obvious that this opinion was referencing a very small time frame (i.e. the period of time during which the price at Mt. Gox shot up 50 cents). 

Call me crazy but I don't think people should invest based on how brave they're feeling at the moment :P I've made very calculated, logical buys and sells and because of that, haven't lost money on one single investment on the exchange so far.  You try and find out why the price dropped if it did, compare the prices on the two exchanges and determine which is likely to even out their values and in what direction, and look at the volumes required to raise and lower the price THEN make a buying decision.

or...

you could come troll the forum and try and insult people into buying it up so your unwise buy order goes back into the black.  Either way works I'm sure :P oh wait, the price just dropped since your initial post lol.

Misleading thread title.   >:(

I thought this was an announcement of a new service for pimps.

Haha
