The search, which usually just peters along breaking records by a few % each day, just broke the record by 30%. Watch the fuck out next week.

Where's that from ? Google ?

Yep http://www.google.com/trends/explore#cat=0&q=buy%20bitcoin,blockchain,buy%20bitcoins&geo=&date=today%203-m&gprop=&cmpt=q

indeed.

Its funny to watch people waiting exactly for the weekend, in order to sell off coins in chunks of 200 pieces. They could do the same during the week with 10% better prices, and 200 pieces won't succeed with manipulating this market.

What about this?

Well since we cant actually see the figures, you cant tell for sure - but just by logic it would seem pretty silly for someone to actually search for selling bitcoins once they already own them (you already know where to exchange them...). So yes, it would increase in correspondence, but the actual number I'm guessing is roughly 1/50th to 1/100th of what the buy side sees.

AFAIK, google search trends are delayed, so they're not a good indicator of how the price will develop, if anything, the price is a good indicator for how the google search trend will develop..

They are a developing indicator because they show how much NEW interest there is in purchasing. The price will naturally follow this and you can correlate it quite well if you look back historically.

Yes, the results are delayed 48 hours. But that doesn't really matter because it usually takes 3-5 days for wire transfers to hit mtgox anyway.

Yeah i know. But i had nothing to do so i thought let's look at how many are searching for selling bitcoins. What made me a little worried was that there were 2 big spikes, 1 in June -11 and one right now in March.

The problem is that this means money on exchanges no earlier then a week from now - and in the mean time a bear market can set up.  In exactly the same way the bear market in 2011 started - the searches also skyrocketed then.

That said - I am buying back this weekend.

lol, party is over.  Years long downtrend in place now. 

can i have your coins?

Guys, you know what this means... Buy!

Alright everyone - proudhon called it, we're safe now!

What are you doing posting here, Proud?  Go by some coin!  ;)

I'm waiting for the much lower prices that are on the way.  Seriously feel bad for all the Euro folks who bought recently thinking this was a good way to protect value.

I believe yesterday was a new all time high in bitcoin wikipedia views  :D

Oh that's actually a quite nice indicator :) and yes, it's even around 60% higher than the previous high in June 2011!

Yeah, we've got a ways to go...

$1000 BTC, easily  :D

Am I old if I dont know what Pikachu is?

Not young anyway

Ok so not old, just not japanese. I can live with that.  ;D

It was big in America about 15 years ago. I remember as a kid everyone obsessing over it and Digimon.

Europe too

Proudhon, you have jumped the shark. Nobody is taking you seriously any more.

Buy at least a hand full of coins at the next dip so that you can feel a little warmth in your heart again.  ;D

I saw the wall movement... this is not a normal market.

One person put walls from $55 to $64 where he planted a 4kbtc

When asks began to reach the wall and didnt get scared of a 4kbtc wall he just market bought everything to $69.

This rally is being maintained by a few perma bulls that are more scared that anyone.

Its a one man band bringing confidence to everyone, i hope he doesnt get agitated.

Sounds exactly the same as the way the sellers operate at high prices. TBH the sell walls look even more manipulative.

And we all feel sorry for you when you sold most of your coins < $10.

 :D

Awesome, we've reached pikachu-search-parity!  :)

wow, that's quite a botnet they must be running to manipulate that many metrics of interest/users of bitcoin to coincide with the increase in price

https://i.imgur.com/bFmDFzF.png

Nearly double the amount of searches vs what it was during the "crazy bubble over the last few months".

Do not be surprised if we hit 100 next week.

...and we got a new all time high  ;D

Still hanging around with nothing better to do in life.  ::)

Proudhon is trolling bitcoin into "single" digits.

Pretty soon we will be calling mBTC = $1....so I guess that is single digits.  :D

 ;)

One possibility: he is Satoshi's trollish alter-self.

You know,  it's ok.

I still love you.

remember when we managed to convert proudhon into a bull?  Let's do that again!

And you can bet your britches that when we hit mBTC=$1, proudhon will make a thread "Lol guys... see? I TOTALLY CALLED IT!"

"Long [upwards] crash into single digits!"
