Yeah, would be fantastic if somebody could take ChartBuddy’s role of posting graphs of the latest exchange prices on the hour, every hour.

It’s definitely missed.

But call it Tumbleweed.  Or Cricket.  That way it fits when there is a whole page with nothing but tumbleweeds.  or Crickets.  Remember 2015.

You party poop pessimist, explorer poorer.   Tongue

Why not call it "action Jackson" or something more animated because it is surely likely to report that we are becoming richer and richer with the passage of time?  Perhaps call it "Lambo Generator?"    Shocked


The party pooper can't use Tumbleweed. That name's already taken, and so is Cricket.

It's getting so difficult to find a username that isn't taken that someone had to choose pfrtlpfmpf

He considered choosing Perfrumple Fumplmumf, but it's too long.


Perfrumple Fumplmumf

I thought of that, but it was to long . . .

Keep posting graphs of the latest exchange prices on the hour, every hour.

Here's an example of what to post.

They auctioned 2,170 bitcoins yesterday, and the exchange prices went up, not down. That's bullish.

Too bad I have to wait another year to get the job finished.

Do you mean you have to manage without any teeth for a whole year? Did you have any left before starting the implant surgery?

I thought the operation was fast.

So I need to think ahead and postpone my post until page 20001 and then go back and delete some of my own posts to get it back to page 20000. Now that’s manipulation!

No you need postpone your post until page 20201, then wait for other people to delete thousands of their own posts, then delete some of your own posts to get it back to page 20000.

Good point  Roll Eyes
Then, we will have a temporary place in History (what an oxymoron)
 Grin

The poll needs changing to ask how long you think your post will stay on the 20000th page.

History will probably repeat itself.



Most of the posts around 10,000 were people posting "10,000!!!!", trying to be one of the people on the 10,000th page.

But then those that missed it started deleting their old posts so that their post would be on page 10,000. This went on for about 3 days straight.


This post is now on page 9805, so we can expect 200 pages to get deleted in the days after page 20000.

In on 10.000!
1767  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 20, 2018, 02:35:03 PM
How many people here will be able to get a piece of History by posting in the 20000th page?
I know all of you are hiding in the dark just to post non-sense at page 20000
 Grin
It's going to be like finding space in full 1MB block

What if infofront moves the goal posts and starts deleting posts made before the 20000th page? People who thought they had a piece of History could get moved back from the 20000th page to earlier pages.

At least Bitcoin trading doesn't give you increased flatulence, nausea and intestinal cramping (unless you just lost $1 million).

Perspective: Apologies in advance if this comes off as a brag-post, but fuck losing $1M. Your entire perspective changes when you see your portfolio swing $10M in the matter of a couple days.

Learn how to ride those waves for few years of HODLing and <insert Mr Bean on Rollercoaster.gif>

All I can do is sit back and either laugh or shrug. (Please keep in mind my entire stash at this point is "house money", so perhaps my perspective is atypical)

If Bitcoin trading is a serious cause of, no-bullshit real life stress like stomach cramps and other anxiety symptoms, then perhaps that is a sign you may be a bit over exposed.

Nevermind your physical health. That's just fundamentally not financially healthly.

You must be hodling a thousand Bitcoins if you watched your portfolio swing $10M within days.  Shocked

Maybe you handled it better because you were hodling rather than day trading like TERA. He got serious brain/nerve damage from it.


...
Oh yes this is me. I have serious brain/nerve damage from the sequelea of consequences of bitcoin trading and would return every satoshi for my old life back. I also lost a job and spent half of my profits supporting myself for a long time until I found my next job.

How long did the withdrawal symptoms last, and how bad were they?

I was pretty angry and irritable for a solid 6-8 weeks before I started chilling out.

 I quit 13 years ago and I'm angrier and more irritable than ever.  I'm pretty sure i'm also dumber but dont let that sway your decision to quit smoking;  you'll be better for it.


Trading the Bitcoin markets could be making you angrier and more irritable than ever. Tera says it made him ill.

Relax buddy, you don't need to be irritable and angry all you need is to inhale and exhale. Being angry and irritable is a symptoms of stressed...

No, being angry and irritable when giving up smoking are withdrawal symptoms. Other symptoms are physical, and can include increased flatulence, nausea and intestinal cramping.

I am a heavy smoker though. Maybe you will get a nicotine buzz.

random: I quit cold turkey almost 15 years ago. Best decision I've ever made for my life and health. Very empowering to know I had the will to pull through the withdrawal symptoms.

I'm about ready to capitulate myself. Is it best to dollars cost average your way out as well?
PS. I have no complaints, have done well.

Yes, it is better to dollar cost average the exit, exactly the same as the investment. Unless you were to know for sure it is gonna rise or dump for good.... which you, obviously, don't.

Or just change your trading strategy to "bear market" and do aggresive trades with the target of extracting fiat instead of increasing BTC. It depends on your hurry to fully exit though.

That said, I am considering capitulating too. Except my way of capitulating would be the same I did in 2014-2015... ie: Just hodl, forget, and move onto other things indefinitely.

Hodling's better than this trading strategy.

I’m not going anywhere.   I’ve got another 5 years of hold in me. At least.  As I have said many times before, I will be accumulating sub $5k if we get there and very aggressively should we approach 2014 Gox ATH.  

The only way $1200 is possible if bitcoin would be on the way to it's death.
Buying in that situation would be a wrong move.


There was a dip about this time last year.




It soon recovered afterwards.

I wonder how many of my bids will be touched while I sleep tonight? Biy, I am getting old. It's only 8;25 pm my time and I am already thinking about going to bed. However, daylight savings time is activating tonight. Going to be a rough week ahead for me. Maybe I should move to Arizona, Hawaii or Puerto Rico. My body clock always has a rough time adjusting to this bullshit. Why the hell do we need it to be twilight at 9:00 pm in June?

Did the daylight savings time switch make you change your avatar? Both of them are cool, but you switched them today.

I browsed like the 1st few pages of this thread just for shits and giggles.
holy crap!! all these heros and legends I've never seen before.
small wonder.
 they are all long since millionaires by now and don't waste their time here anymore... lol

... And many of them who sold and the train left without them.

yeah them too   Cheesy

I'd be surprised if one in ten of them is rich. Most probably sold too soon.

A legendary called arklan once had a shit load of Bitcoins, but lost them all before the price mooned. He sold ten to his brother for something like $100, and he had to sell some others for various reasons. He was here before this thread began.



doesn't help i sold 10 BTC to my brother back in 2013 at around 100 a pop... argh. i've got less then .04 now...
1780  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 06, 2018, 04:44:01 AM
...

I suppose it could be interesting to note, too, how many auctions of BTC are taking place on an ongoing basis and the quantity of coins...


Coindesk says before 2018 the last auction was in mid-2016. That's a gap of over one and a half years with no auctions.

The 2,170 bitcoins they are auctioning on March 19 probably won't make much difference to the exchange prices. That's a tiny number of coins compared to the first auctions they had.

It's also the second sale to take place within a nearly two-year period, given that prior to this year, the last auction occurred in mid-2016, when the agency sold 2,700 BTC
