Thanks guys, for the well-wishes!

Yesterday I was feeling better than ever.
Today I'm feeling better than yesterday!

Bye-bye COVID, welcome Carolina.

BTW, I feel that $38k+ is kinda boring... I need more!
At least a 4 in front of the number. 3 is so last year...

Wow! Kraken now shows an almost perfect reverse Bart that almost cancels the dip. The entire thing looks kind of like a huge axe...

Maybe Bitcoin's trying to tell us something: "Don't you go fuck with me, coz I'm going to axe your ass muthafuka!"

These Bitcoin swings go almost as fast as COVID-induced fever/diarrhea cycles.

I speak from experience (12 toilet paper rolls down... in 3 days).

Glad to see you alive today. Do not use your paper wallet as TP.

Hey did you get a bidet by chance? God they are just. so. nice.

Yes, I have a bidet! But I seldom use it. Find it awkward to use. Females seem to like it though.

You don't need no bidet when you have perfected the TP technique.

Kraken EUR chart is frozen like a lost penguin in Antarctica...

I actually like Kraken, but why can't they upgrade their servers to something better than refurbished Amstrad 9512s?

Coinbase down caused the dip?
That’s what I was thinking

cryptowat.ch seems broken.
Confirm anyone?

Can't post new orders or modify existing orders @Kraken since a few minutes, price updates are very erratic.
NOW it feels like 2017 for Kraken users  Grin

Damn! For a moment, Kraken showed a graph similar to alevlaslo's!

It's all so 2017...

Hey AlcoHoDL, recovering well I hope?

Yes, feeling better than ever!

Doctor said I should stay at home and wait it out. I did, and a couple of days later, ALL symptoms are completely gone, no headache, no fever (exactly 36.6 degC / 98 degF, without taking any pills), no diarrhea, no coughing (never had this), full strength, feeling absolutely great. Not taking any medication at all, as I wasn't taking any before it all started. Oximeter reading is between 98% and 99%.

I don't know if I'm going to die tomorrow or not, but today I feel great and I'm enjoying myself. Will keep an eye on it, of course, but my body tells me it's over for good. This is serious stuff, but I guess if the body is in good condition and there are no underlying illnesses, it can be taken care of by the body itself.

Bitcoin price is soaring and it's great to be back with the WO gang!

Onwards & upwards!

HoDL.

  Good news.

 No matter what you think play it safe for a few more days.  What's a few days.

As you don't want to spread it around.

By Monday you should be cool.

With a shit ton more wealth due to your holdings.

Thanks man.

Yes, was quite unexpected. Will definitely wait until Monday and get tested again to make sure I get a negative before getting close to others. My feeling tells me it's totally over, but then again, this is new stuff that we haven't experienced before, so we never know...

Yes, wealth has increased to the point of not thinking too much about what I'm buying. I'm not the greedy type, so I won't go spending uncontrollably, but things that I was reluctant to consider, I can now get without much thinking. I'd say, having a good job and a decent-sized BTC stash is the best combination. You cover your everyday expenses with your job earnings (and at the same time you enjoy what you do), and use your BTC for the larger toys and objects of desire that you may have, together with the psychological reassurance that your future is well secured and you can have more or less anything you may want.

Good times. Well done, my fellow WO brothers!

HoDL.

Edit: Also thx to Cryptotourist & Thanos01, I appreciate it guys!

alright man, I respect your opinion body.

i'll just try to ride the wave then !

I've been here since 2017 and have never had any of my posts deleted (and I'm pretty sure some deserved to be). WO is one of the most open and tolerant threads around. For your post to be deleted you must have said something that was way out of line. This is where you should be focusing on...

Photography is awesome for when you get older or not suited to serious exercise.  I know people in their mid 80s that take amazing landscape photos. 

Also local wildlife photography can help advance science if you get the right niche for rare birds / critters in your area

My dad was heavily into photography. Landscape, supercars and these soft filtered 70's portraits. I grew into it, automatically.
Got my first Canon AE-1 from him at the age of 12, i also have two inherited lenses here, which i use occasionally. A Tamron push-pull zoom and a fixed focal length 24mm f2 lens. Both can't keep up with modern sensor resolutions too well, though.
Stepping into digital photography at 2 megapixels from 35mm film was awesome.
At the time you can shoot landscapes like this a lot:



I'm into photography too. This hobby can be expensive (esp. the lenses), but Bitcoin can take care of that. I kept postponing upgrading my aging equipment (Canon gear, but very old—body is a 20D, still works fine), but after my COVID-19 situation, there's going to be a serious reshuffling of my priority list. If/when this shit clears away, the first thing I'm going to do is buy a nice mirrorless body with a couple of good lenses. Below is one candidate (APS-C sensor, but I like the overall camera design), and also looking at the Sony Alpha mirrorless series (full-frame sensor).

FUJIFILM X-T4 Mirrorless Digital Camera

Enjoy it, it's an immensely rewarding experience.

I have the diarrhea unfortunately.  Sad

Apologies in advance for the low-tier pun of you suffering through a shitty deal.

Sincere hopes you start feeling better imminently, and bounce back from this at full strength.

Thanks Bob, I hope so...
1595  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: January 04, 2021, 08:13:00 PM
Thx man.

I have the diarrhea unfortunately.  Sad
Smelling OK.
No blisters in mouth.
Do not feel anything bad when fully inhaled, and can keep it for a long time.

Will keep an eye on it.

You have fever, headache and diarrhea.
Have you talked to any doctor yet?

If you have a qualified doctor in the family then reach out to them, give them a call and share them the symptoms. They may give you some better suggestion than anyone else us here or someone who are not qualified. If no doctor in the family then see a doctor near to you.

I hope it's not anything to be worried about but it's better to consult with a qualified person and follow their suggestion.

Will get tested to confirm it first. The plan is to do it tomorrow. Pretty sure it's going to be positive...
1596  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: January 04, 2021, 07:01:15 PM
Alternating wildly between feeling "OK" and having a fever and headache. No coughing, no shortness of breath. Not yet anyway. Hopefully never.
Hey brother. You are fine. This might be normal virus fever with headache. Don't worry too much.

Careful about things like
Can not smell
Having diarrhea
Blisters in the mouth

Do breathing exercises, when inhale notice if you feel any pain in the chest. Obviously always have the oximeter. 97/98 is fine but regular person should have 99+

I am not a doctor but I am saying all these from experience being with covid patients.

I hope you get well soon brother.

Thx man.

I'm strongly considering quitting my job, and doing something, anything else while living off crypto for the foreseeable future. This is the first day of work after a 2 week break, and instead of being "refreshed" and ready to work, all I can think is the break wasn't nearly long enough. Despite finding the work deeply unfulfilling, my job is stable and pays pretty well (a quick Google search says I'm in the top 97% within my state).

Probably the biggest thing holding me back is losing the structure that comes with the daily grind. I'm not completely confident I have the necessary self-discipline to create my own structure over the long-term, and while there are a lot of things I want to do (contribute to open source crypto software, write a novel, go back to school, etc), there's the non-zero chance I end up wandering aimlessly without purpose until wasting away.

Has anyone else gone through this or a similar thought process? This might be the only place (that I know of) with people who could relate.

For my part, i'm unemployed since 2011 now, mainly because of fatigue, weak immune system and memory problems.
Eight years before that i ran a home/small business in the IT industry. I got good health and social insurance.
(EDIT: On about a third of what i used to earn, but it's enough)

So now, back to your question: You have to have some "mission", a hobby and take the times just as they come. I had to learn to never feel bored (through meditation).
You have to be immune to people's talks, because not many can get along with somebody making a living of not working. In my case i undergo a lot of neurologic therapy, and i'm restored to some extent, at least in terms of fitness and immune system strength. Your "aim" may be to discover everything you didn't know about yourself yet.

And there's that golden tip i got once...
Go into absolute darkness and silence (some people used a coffin), relax without motion, just shut your mind down to a point where you imagine "this is it. i'm dead. This was my life..." Pretend to be dead. Take your time, i'm serious, and then you will start remembering what you did, all your experiences, your life and, most important, what you didn't do, what you regret you did, which dreams you didn't work on to realise them....
If you do this right (authentic) you will know what you want to do with your life. Trust me. It's being taught at seminars in Germany.

Remeber: You need to look at your past life as if you're dead already. It's not important how you do it, it's only important that you actually do it.

+1 WOsMerit.

@AlcoHoDL

Hodl tight man. If you haven't seen bad symptoms yet, you likely won't. When it's bad, it's usually immediately bad. This pattern of yours hit two of my friends (one in her early 40s, the other in his late 50s). Both were out of it in just over one week, plus of course some time to get back to full baseline.

EDIT - No muscle/joint pain? That was the worst of the "light" symptoms apart from head splitting headaches. My older friend, a former athlete, said he'd never felt anything like that muscle pain, even in post-traumatic conditions.

Thx man, I appreciate the post.

Fortunately, no bad symptoms in the sense that I must be admitted to hospital. Just fever swings and diarrhea. In fact, when I take paracetamol (for the fever) I feel pretty good. I can feel I'm sick, but I can still enjoy things. No coughs, no shortness of breath, no muscle pain, nothing like that. If it completes its cycle in a week, that would be great!

In my 40s, quite fit, exercising every day, not overweight. Hopefully this will help kill it faster.

Hey WO gang!

Thanks so much for your replies, I've read and appreciate every single one of them!

On the PC now, at last. WO is a pain to browse from the screen of a phone, let alone posting, quoting, etc. Should get a good tablet. iPad Air maybe? Why not, we're rich now, aren't we?

Still alive, confined at home monitoring myself. This has got to be the weirdest illness I've ever experienced in my entire life. Alternating wildly between feeling "OK" and having a fever and headache. No coughing, no shortness of breath. Not yet anyway. Hopefully never.

Got an oximeter as suggested. Readings look good (alternating between 97% and 98%). I read that 94% is the warning threshold, so all good. I'm quite fit, exercising regularly, not taking any medication, etc. This should help me win this fight.



On topic. I see we had a correction for ants, which is already bouncing back up and has entered the typical decaying oscillatory response. Based on what I've seen so far, I'd say it will either go sideways for a little while and then shoot up, or it will shoot up straight away. We'll see. I'm happy either way. Shouldn't be too greedy. Once upon a time I was aiming for 10k € and we're now at 25k+ €...

I read the post with the news about Bitcoin "losing steam" by dipping 10%. Really? Don't they know nuttin'? Are they embittered nocoiners? Paid shills? Rhetoric questions... Funny thing is that, as already noted, the news item hasn't aged so well, and very soon I see some nice memes being posted based on this.

Not selling a sat until I need to. No targets. Will sell when I need to. And as much as I need to. Will not fill the bank with fiat. Already have some there and they are now worth less than when they were put there.

Onwards & upwards.

HoDL.

yeah it is weird . I was sick with it dec 31 2019 to jan 25 2020. fever on and off. my body felt black and blue and beaten on.

I was 63 when I caught it.
I have asthma
I have diabetes

And I did better with it then my wife. 91-93 on the o2 meter.  fever spiked hard one time 103 for 3 hours. with uncontrollable shakes. My skin felt hot and sweaty and my insides felt cold. Wrapped myself in 3 blankets and sweated that mofo out.

Once that one really hot shaking stopped fever was never over 99 and I was done with it.

For me this was not as bad as the h1n1 flu I had in 2009.

My wife on the other hand really has suffered long term lung damage which is just getting better after 1 year and 1 week since first getting it.

Good luck fighting this mofo bro.

Yes, very similar to my case. I haven't taken paracetamol for one day, no fever, all good. I try to sleep without taking any paracetamol, only to be woken up in the middle of the night shivering from a rising fever. Then I take paracetamol and a couple of hours later I'm woken up again, all sweating (pyjamas literally dripping) from the falling fever. Nasty mofo!

Mine started on Dec 31 2020. So I'm looking at enduring this for the most part of January. OK, good to know what to expect. I'm in my 40s, so hopefully it will take a bit less time to clear out. I just hope it does clear out, and doesn't clear me out...  Shocked

Thanks man, and all WOers.
