Bitcoin Price Key Highlights Bitcoin price is still inside its symmetrical triangle formation and is currently testing support. A bounce could take it back up to the resistance around $9,000 while a break lower could lead to a test of the next support at $6,500. Technical indicators are showing mixed signals, so the move could mostly depend on market catalysts. Bitcoin price has sold off to the very bottom of its symmetrical triangle formation, still pending a bounce or a break.

As the cryptocurrency bear market presses on many investors worry that Bitcoin was just another passing fad. Bitcoin recently broke down past $8000 and is struggling to find support around $7800, the same level where Bitcoin broke out in early April in an attempt to break above $10000. The overall market capitalization is also in a steady decline breaking $400 billion from its all-time highs of over $830 billion.

The Justice Department is said to be looking into techniques used to bump up prices including spoofing, in which traders flood the market with fake orders that are never fulfilled and wash trading, which gives a false impression of market demand when a buyer purchases against themselves, tempting others to follow suit. Interesting

I'm no fud-er. Imagine I play dice regularly and one day I win. I want those coins for me and I have them sent to my personal wallet. Then I transfer them to an exchange (fort fiat) and they get blocked. In that case no fungibility. Yes, I'm not that stupid I'd never do that: but that's an example when I would need better fungibility.
How on earth does exchange risk translate to inherent non-fungibility? That's idiotic. Like saying a bank robbery makes the us dollar useless. Yes, if you rob an ATM you will have a bunch of useless marked banknotes. The same way you can have tainted coins! I don't get why this sounds so stupid, really.

No need to say that cops are getting helped by those business intelligence services which are trying to understand the full story of people UTXOs. Bitcoin is neither anonymous nor fungible.
Its pseudo-nonymous, but with the newest BIP Dandelion, in addition to Schnorr signatures - that can easily change. Not fungible? Are you nuts? Look at exchange volume and tell me how "not fungible" it is. Anyone can transact for thier local currency with ease, or pay for services with Bitcoin directly. Your response sounds like some of the FUD-ers that I've seen here over the years -- you should know better. I'm no fud-er. Imagine I play dice regularly and one day I win.

Future markets have already manipulated every underlying assets they touch WITHOUT having to deal with the real asset. I only care about the real number of bitcoins traded on the exchanges (which is not accurate but at least it gives us an idea). And, if there are exchanges that are playing with fire (fractional reserve anyone) let them burn. Bitcoin does not need exchanges in the long run anyway

We don't care about verge, this is the bitcoin news press board. Only bitcoin related news are allowed here. Don't post Roger's article here, please.

Yes, but we can't deny that. When BTC rises from its ashes all the alts get a boost and this is due to the fact that people believe Bitcoin is too expensive compared to the altpennies. Byteball will rise but eventually only long standing projects like Byteball will have a chance to survive in this extremetely competitive environment.

This small dump doesn't make much sense, don't sell. Volumes are low don't get fooled by those who want your coins. Remember there are only 21M (and we all know there are even less due to losses and such). Let the panic unfold before your eyes but, don't be afraid. You all know how it works

was this thread bump really necessary? Women aren't into crypto that's a fact and I don't think them coming into crypto will make a difference. let's move on

I don't know. Vegeta is working hard but no sign of a strong uptrend over the horizon. I got too much excited: I shouldn't drink too much over the weekend for a few dollars up

I am still feeling a bit of a vibe. Weekend is over but let the excitement of the small leg up launch our bitcoin up. I would like 10k in the next three days. Bitcoin, if you could do that, it would be great

This is what MSM have to write, I actually did not expect anything different. They know they need to cover Bitcoin as a regular topic and this is what we get. Yes, by the way, I totally agree with your comment

Bitcoin has lost over half its value in less than 6 months. Shortly before Christmas, it was trading at over $19,000; today, it is just $8,299. Unsurprisingly, Bitcoin investors have been predicting meteoritic rises will recommence any day now. But Bitcoin has so far refused to cooperate, staying stubbornly stuck below $10,000 for the last two months. How can we know when - or if - it will rise again?

Although the market is positive overall, at the time of writing, the sentiment is quite negative. Maybe due to the high expectations over Consensus, which did not create that much demand over bitcoin, at least not as much as it happened during previous years. I understand it’s your money that is at stake and the market has been quite bearish. But it’s also mine and everyone else’s who decided to change from fiat-currency to cryptocurrency. To most people you know bitcoin is an investment vehicle; maybe a bit more worrying, is the fact that the focus is not even bitcoin anymore, it’s mostly altcoins. Where else we could we get those massive gains (bruh)? Read more https://www.ccn.com/opinion-the-bubble-is-not-bitcoin/

The position's title gives us a lot of info: Strategy is a very important word. This means they plan to have a long term strategy regarding crypto which is overall good for the best coins around that will be considered assets to invest into: I think this is already the case. Hold onto your precious coins and sell them cheap to those greedy bastards

Great to see recent appreciation in bytebal price. It has risen about 10% in 24 hours in its btc value and 14% in USD value.
Any ideas what is affecting this appreciation? At the same time I also feel Steem rising at an even faster rate. I am always so confused about bytebal or Steem, Steem seems to be the reliance option always.
There was no such huge appreciation and if you think about gbyte bitcoin price it's actually going red. I don't get your comparison with steem: I don't think there's any point to do that. Byteball will have its time when all the alts/icos scam will bust because as we always say, byteball actually works
