Chinese whales finally exited the market.
No more group selling from them, they were reaching their coordinated sell target ($30k) and now we can resume a healthy uptrend.

Sorry for all weak hands out there, fuck you over-leveraged "traders" and greetings to all bitcoin hodlers who didn't mindrust the dip.
Off to work again.

On point, imo.
That's why i expect the price to go down until china's bitcoin ban is in full effect, which should be 2 days from now, afaik.
If the electrician happens to present me the bill for his work and material, i will be able to know how much fiat will be left to buy bitcoin at the bottom.
Done a lot work with the house extension lately, painting, installing doors, almost no time left to read WO (you know, i need sleep too  )

I guess it's about Verviers.

Bitcoin bouced at exactly my triangle line setup.
It shows a very defined downward channel, tipping towards the first two weeks of august.
IIRC that's the month when the fun started in 2017?

Yeah, i've been through this in 2018 and 2019 after i made a move and used some of my fiat savings to buy additional bitcoin at $15k. It was a smaller fraction of my satstack, but the most expensive one until 2020, also (EDIT: one of) the biggest one-time amount spent buying corn.
Until mindrust's exit, i had plenty of time to learn to manage my feelings when price goes down.
But this time it's different, we're in a bull market (at least we should be), price goes south, FUD and government terror rose to an unseen amount yet. WSB mentality of making overleveraged-all-in trades adds to the problem. I still (try) to see the price action as a correction. I'm not immune to doubts, you know, but i ditched panic and i don't need most of the money i bought bitcoin with.
 
Spoiler: I bought it for the future of my kids/family.

But that's just me. I would never say things like "poor loser, don't whine around, hodl!" to any WOer experience negative feelings in regard to price action.

You're just preparing yourself to get excited 
How can one experience fun when he never learned to cry. (My stupid simplification of a chinese proverb)

Unpopular opinion: Troubled waters until 21st of July. I'll hodl my coins and save some fiat until then 

Why would you?
If you need the money, to build a farm or whatever, OK.

These IRS "news" are ... interesting.
When conflicting with any kind of state authority, it's ALWAYS best to say nothing and let the lawyer(s) fight the case.

EDIT: Anyone else heard of that 51% attack on BSV network yet? Faketoshi and Childfuxxer getting what they deserve, finally?

The community that wasn't one, and probably never will be.
You can't build a culture with economic rules and agreements alone...
Globally, we're in the same boat. All of us.

EDIT:
Spartanic lifestyle: Wallet empty, bank account empty, not a single sat sold.

Seconded.
Italy sporting three Euro games with extension time, losing a key player on the way and having Chiesa giving up as well, who was a candidate for scoring 2:1 in the final, really good. Donnarumma: Nothing to add here. Clearly deserved "man of the match".

Grassdiving, as it seems to me, became fashionable with Neymar Jr. but especially Sterling was disappointing for diving a couple of times too often. That penalty decision in the semifinal was too hard, when you could literally watch him aiming for the dive in the slow motion replay. He's not quite worthy for that kind of play as the brilliant speedy dribbling artist he is. Very similar to the brasilian national diva, imho.
On the other hand, almost every yellow card caused by italy today was really unneccessary. They've shown better qualities in this tournament, they might have been just too frustrated, these fouls weren't in their favour, anyway. The thing with (was it Grealish?) the strike to the left knee was just gross.


Anyway, #hodlsleep now.
It's nice that my prediction/feeling about the breakout was right, i'm curious where the price will stand tomorrow at breakfast...
I love the smell of rekt shorters when i butter my toast  

First:
I mean near the outer border, not outside the border Thus you are right, imo. It's a place 10 mins away (per car) from the next neighbor, 15 mins to the next village and 1 hour away from the next city. I could live with that. My great grandparents lived their whole lifes like that, except without access to cars and in one case without electricity. I will go a step further and have a solar powered house with a well and a sump. Cattle (milk), chicken (eggs), vegetable garden. Lots of grassland, part of a forest and no signs of humanity in plain sight. Maybe i'll see some distant hikers on mountain ridges, with the help of binoculars. Cricket concert all summer long, with a constant uphill breeze. I used to spend weeks and months in these kind of places, from childhood to young adolescence, with shorter visits as an adult.
It's a place where natural drinking water will likely run out last on earth. Probably i'll need a license and some exclusive firearms for hunting. I also like to have dogs again when the kids will be living on their own. Until then i'll stay near the urban areas.

Second:
"marinesoldat" is correct, although google suggested "marine soldat", which are two distinct terms, like spelling "roof top" instead of "rooftop".

EDIT: Observing resistance weakening a bit, so breakout may be due soon, but when drawing lines, i'd second that early august pump opinions.
As most of you might know, i'm drawing lines for fun, taking them not too serious, because king daddy taught me not to do so  
EDIT2: This lesson took a while, though   

The cream top is calvin ayre trying to impress elon with various bsv patents.
Here he is: Shitcoin Jesus 

...wait? This reminds me of someone who also recently disappeared in the chambers of unimportance 
It all started out with a chainsplit 

Heh, me too, though i'm a bit younger than you. I was an early starter, despite my upper middle class parental background.
Mum'n Dad always told me to stay away from "the bums", but they were a dozen times more straightforward than what i knew from my family with the inbred stick-up-the-butt "syndrome"  

EDIT: So if my children are buttstickers as welll when they will be grown-ups, i probably deserve it this way. But i already have an exit plan for living at the outer border of society when it's due.

There's the thing with the evil again. At least not as evil as that i would post the scene screenshot here  

The scene at 01:09:52 (Spoiler Alert!)

EDIT: I now see it's a slightly different model from the US equivalent Arrie originally posted. It was mainly the writing and shape that triggered the memories.

I'm a nice person. Well, mostly. This lil thing was part of the evil in me  
If you watch a different cut: It's the moment right after Bob (Hutch) lifts the napkin off of his surprise dinner.

EDIT: Now i managed to connect the pieces: Arrie was looking for a replica of this thing until finally someone custom 3d-printed one for him.
AFAIR, as a decoration for his car's front bumper?

@Arrie: did you finish it? Please post a pic. I might have missed it, though, in a TLDR accident...

Breaker, breaker
Since bitcoin leaves me hanging with interesting chart action lately and i'm still a little sick, bound to bed for half of the day, i was browsing the movies....

Discovered this lovely, slowish, pretty detailed and graphic action movie starring Bob Odenkirk:

Nobody (2021)

I can't remember (seriously) when i was laughing so hard to such a violent movie.
Strongly recommend it to all those who can spare a medial one-and-half-an-hour because of boreout.

Spoiler: Couldn't resist thinking about Arriemoller at 01:09:52  so i paused the show at this plot twist and posted my recommendation to you, guys  #honomo

My oldest one should be good with that.
EDIT: It's even on bezos' prime video currently, so i don't have to pirate it. Need to kill some time until the EURO final 


I started watching it because of the rating.
Discovered it by surprise, it's like a dutch version of "trainspotting", just without the strong focus on the drug addictions.
I like it when movies are leaving me impressed (in any possible way), this one did well, too.

Indeed. It's called "the ego".
Task: Control it, before it's controlling you.


I have this one on my to-watch-list as well.
Yesterday i saw an unexpectedly good, emotionally quite deep art/trash movie: Ex Drummer.
Think it's of dutch or belgian origin.

EDIT: Not for the faint hearted, though.

It's clearly Evil Elon, while Saylor is his submissive toy puppet.
Change my mind.

One concern, though: Survival of the dumbest as an overwhelming majority (Idiocracy).

EDIT: We might as well live in a "bubble of the smart" because we socialize with smart prople, mainly. The global masses are easily controlled by FUD and also hate. They would be immune to this common form of manipulation if we, as society would have evolved in favour of smartness. Also, look at religions. Not a sign of smartness that over 90% of the population believes in the big space worm or whatever magical creator/controller being
