No reason for you to white knight here, either.. but whatever... do what you like.   

There is no hate on my end.  Bob just possesses a lack of tolerance to anyone who won't suck his tiny penis that he wants peeps to believe is bery bery bery BIG.     

I don't know.  I always try to accurately describe my views and to inject whatever level of optimism that I can.  I thought that I was suggesting something fairly charitable in assigning up to a possible 10% chance to pump to $4,800 in a week (which would be about a 40% price increase from our current price).

Any of us should realize that "the trend is your friend," and in that regard, we understand that the better case scenario is that the BTC price is going sideways for a while, and there is considerable resistance on the upside in a number of points.  Surely, that does not mean that UP could not happen, just that the odds are against up, and really have been against UP since about mid November when BTC prices meaningful broke below $6k without any kind of rapid rebound.

Yes, I try to appreciate any light in the tunnel or any optimism about UP or about a reversal of the BTC price from here or that th bottom is "in", but it is going to be really difficult to rest assured that the "bottom is in" and we are out of this current bear market until after BTC prices get back above $6k and stay above $6k for a meaningful time.  I understand that various technical analysis folks could suggest to me that I am being too rigid with my staying above $6k requirement, because markets are both a function of time and and a function of price movement, so merely going sideways for a decent amount of time causes bullishness indicators, including causing various moving averages to move down and therefore the barrier to UP and the barrier to claiming that we are out of the bear market becomes lower with the passage of time as long as the price stays within a range.  Personally, I am sticking with my staying above $6k requirement, because I think that that price range serves as a more comfortable indicator that would show that the bear market has reversed.

Furthermore, if you recall from 2015, we were largely out of the bear market in October/November 2015 when BTC prices shot above $500 and then got stuck in the $350 to $450 range for more than 6 months, but a vast majority of us really were not convinced about being out of such then bear market until late 2016 or early 2017, when the BTC price largely recovered from the late 2016 bitfinex shenanigans... and even then, and throughout 2017, there were continued and ongoing threats to the BTC price rally stopping at any time, which it did NOT and really surprised a lot of us...

So, long story short, I am sticking with supra $6k  as my sign that we are out of this bear market, and I think that there is a decent amount of resistance to get out of this bear market.  I might change my mind at a later time, especially if we begin to see some decent laddering towards $6k without actually reaching it.  Let's see.

By the way,  even though I have been a bit Stagnant in my buying after exercising my initial buys in this current $3.1k to $4k price range, I have no preference that the BTC price goes down further in order that I can buy some more bitcoins.  I have enough bitcoins, so I would prefer that the price goes up.. but if we are going to go down a bit more, then I will pick up a bit more, too, even though I feel that I already have enough bitcoins for going up... so let's go up... (odds against it, at the moment..   )




Regarding hats: You can go back to about early October in this thread and see some hat contagion, and Xhomer10 agreeing to employ his artistic skills in such direction.  Probably, there is a decent amount of peer pressure of this cultish behavior, but also entrance to the club has been pretty easy too.. Lots of members may have tentatively concluded that the whole wearing a hat idea was dumb, but when Xhomer10 would present them with such a finely tailored piece of workmanship, there is a decent amount of irresistibility and caving into donning such creation.  Who knows how long it will last, and so far there are NO Arnold themed hats, so that could end up being your hat niche. hahahahahahaha

Having 10 members on your trust list does not seem to be a difficult requirement for any possible DT1 to fulfill.  Seems reasonable, too.  If a possible DT1 cannot come to a conclusion for 10 members on his/her trust list, then that likely shows that member to be insufficiently involved in the forum, so might be less than preferred for DT1, even if meeting all the other requirements.

How?  You are describing something that seems to have quite less than a 10% chance of happening.

Join the club.  Of course, I sold a little bit at various higher price points because I have a system that tells me to do it, but of course, such system does not even come close to making any kind of meaningful dent regarding the negative impact on the value of my BTC holdings in respect to the amount that I sold and the amount that the BTC price has dropped.      On the bright side, though, BTC prices are still more than 10x up from where they were in 2015.. That couldn't be a bad thing for HODLers that have been in the HODLing game since 2015.. right?


Who gives a ratt's ass about your frequent public announcements regarding your various sensitivities... and inability to focus on substance.

Grow some balls, you pussified non-power twat.   hahahahahaha      

Theoretically speaking:  Merit sources have some different integrity rules than regular members, especially in the arena of quid pro quo, which could also be a problem is they are using their source merits for personal agendas (which in that regard could be considered a kind of selling, even if not direct).  Factually speaking:  I know very little about Stinger, except what was described in these recent posts, so I, personally, would not have enough information to conclude that any kind of merit source abuse would have been taking place, specifically in regards to that situation.

I might not understand when self-moderated threads are appropriate.  

I have no problem with your (theymos) conclusion that "H8bussesNbicycles's thread looks like [politics] to me", but isn't there a bit of a problem with the self-moderation aspect of certain kinds of threads, especially when dealing with seemingly meta issues?  

For example, I had 6 posts deleted from that thread so of course, now I don't even attempt to participate or pay attention to postings in that particular thread, since I could not even contribute if I wanted to, except if I were to exclude Lauda from my trust list, then they might allow my posts, and I thought that my posts were innocuous, even though obviously the contents of my posts likely distracted from the message that they want to promote in that thread and spread through the forum if they are able, inaccurate as some other members might find such thread messages to be.

Nice to see you.

You did not sell any coins between $6k and $20k?

You know it is not going back up there again, right?

You missed your chance.  You know that, right?

I agree.  That is a great statement.  Boils down to:

"I feel that I don't have cognitive dissonance"   hahahahahahaha    I come here for the lulz... 

Like a constant sauna... Could be good?

Welcome to the thread and to the forum, my imaginary friend.   

Can you describe more specifically what is your BTC investment strategy?  When did you start?  Where are you at in your accumulation, so far?  What are your goals and how will those goals change with inevitable BTC price movements?  Do you balance your BTC investment with other investments that you have?

I doubt that trash is any kind of problem.  Even if the solution to pollution is NOT dilution, there is not enough pollution from that one unit to make any significant impact.   Personally, I think that the problems would be as already pointed out 1) size of the unit (feelings of claustraphobia) and 2) lack of mobility (making you a possible ongoing target).  Weather is probably not a BIG deal, surges of tides and therefore damages, such as from tsunamis tend to be near the shore.

Oh my!!!  What level we gonna take this?  

O.k... I will agree to a 48 hour truce.  I won't say anything bad about you for 48 hours.  I will try my best.   

Huh?  I already admit that I missed the Supreme reference.. I suppose that the capitalization should have given it away... and then your further explanation.. but I missed it.  So how would you propose that I apologize, beyond merely admitting it?    Do you have some boots for me to polish, or kiss?  You want me to all of a sudden, tell you that you are the greatest, even though you have made some pretty strong bcash pumpings in the past that cause legitimate skepticisms of your btc-related substantive motives?

Gyrsur's account was probably taken over after he wore the hat.. in other words very recently... perhaps days?

Oh.. ?  Now I get it.   

Below is me... blushing.

Yep.

Looks like either a sold account or a hacked account.  which one? and for how long?

.........causes you to become inclined towards violent outbursts.  OMG!!!
