Who thinks we could go to double digits again?
Unless some fundamental catastrophe happens, no f-ing way.
Triple digits however, I would not entirely rule out if we get a bad case of liquidity crunch, but it would not stay there for a long time.

Nope this one's for pain and misery...  Grin Grin Grin

where to get such a hat?
You go on a mythical quest that involves staring at charts for days without sleeping or eating (drinking is allowed, but only alcoholic beverages), until you can see your spirit animal in the candles.

I stare at charts since 2011.. quite enough?

and guess which animal i'll see  Grin

In the next step your spirit animal will help you recognize the pattern of the ever expanding fractal in the candles.
Like Neo staring into the matrix, all the noise of the trade data will vanish before your eyes and significant numbers will appear over and over again: 21, 42, 69, 420, 666 and 1337.  You will realize these numbers are clues, derivations of a shape in multidimensional propertyspace that reveal the single governing law of the universe, predicting everything from the bitcoin price, to the exact timing of the outbreak of the next world war or the location of BMB's pants.  Having mastered this single law, you are now able to bring into existence by sheer force of will the avatar of your choice.

Alternatively, you could just ask xHomerx nicely to make you a hat.

I think I am in love with the woman in the Japanese drum video.

It's not love if you were still unzipped from the previous video.
You guys never fail to make me laugh so hard  Grin

Chosing a bottom is never an easy task


They all need to be tested


I have a bit of trouble with the concept of "choosing" a bottom, rather than "finding" a bottom or "predicting" a bottom.

I understand that the meme works better with "choosing," even though there's something that seems missing,... not quite right about the analogy.

Wow, you manage to even make talking about bottoms a pain in the ass.

I think you are actively trying to encourage 'bash on JJG thursdays'   Wink

There is an excellent article which I read which explains why odds are stacked against shorts in the long run.  Shorting is always a short term play.  I am going to try to find it.  

hope you can find it, like to read it Smiley

I am not sure what the article says, but I can name 2 reasons:

- mathematics: in a short position you can only maximally make 100% of the money you put in (if you don't use leverage).   If you short $100 worth of something, the best you can hope for is it goes to zero and you make $100.  For longs, profit is potentially infinite.  Ask somebody who put in $100 in bitcoin when it was worth $1/BTC how much money they made, it is slightly more than $100.

- inflation: In a world where fiat is the currency, and central banks have a mandate to produce 2% inflation, assets that break even on purchasing power go up in price 2% a year.  That means that shorters lose 2% a year as a baseline.  (shorting something denominated in bitcoin might be less unfavorable for this reason).


EDIT:
- a third reason: risk: a short position is always a margin position with risk of liquidation.  Longs can just keep their position for years without ever having to worry about being wiped out due to market volatility.

What about this guy? -> 1FeexV6bAHb8ybZjqQMjJrcCrHGW9sb6uF (https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1FeexV6bAHb8ybZjqQMjJrcCrHGW9sb6uF?offset=200&filter=6)

80000BTC. Hasn't moved since march 2011.

... who are you that you go trawling through everybody else's business, IRS??

pretty sure I know this guy and he's probably forgotten about this stuff, bitcoin just isn't important to him anymore, he's got a lot going on ...

just leave people the fuck alone sometimes would ya?
He just forgot about 80k BTC?
Holy shit...

I'm prepared to buy all the way down. I will not begin until we reach the next resistance area around $2,700ish.

I've held off for a long time, but finally took a nibble between 3200-3500. Here's to 2019 and prosperous buying!
I wish I had your patience.  
But alas, similar to what Majormax described, even if my analysis is 'after such a longer period at basically the same price, a break downwards will cause a big move down', my actual buying pattern is too optimistic.

What this thread needs more than anything is its very own baby.

I thought we had infofront's?
Any day now PoolMinor's avatar will go through the last push and we'll have our very own WO baby.

With that much hate towards females I think he has been rejected all his life. I think I even feel a bit sad for him, but just a bit.

.. and that bit is gone now too.

An excellent topic for the next poll. Roach: lifelong virgin or not?
You might have to clarify though: does receiving a Golden Shower from a prostitute count?

I view Bitstamp as the only honest exchange in the ecosystem.  I think a lot of OG whales there.  And they only trade physical so no bullshit about the price being pushed around by leverage (short or long).  
So do I.

This song seems apt for today : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7TuFy0fcuw

EDIT: This one might describe the mood more though  Wink : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2ku1A5Ox8U .  But it aged quite well.

I've been telling you guys for years. Bitcoin is dying a long death, but it is dying. No question. See you guys at sub $1000 in 2019. Officially irrelevant by 2020.

We might soon get drunk on sweet bear tears.
It would appear the bears are feasting on my tears instead.
