i too noticed how the mansion was at first just risto's private real estate investment, and then later suddenly became the hogwarts school of bitcoin.

i have a macd/ema strategy with ltc daytrading where i buy on a certain ema on downspikes which should be safe as a support until the corresponding macd goes down. once that macd goes down then the support is no longer valid and i move to the next longer chart to use its ema as support. this works most of the time. however today it just kept going down, and down, and down, without the corresponding macds going down first.

any reason why ltc responded to the opening on huobi by tanking? now i wonder what an opening on gox would've been like - worse?
see the news what news?

what if i own two fractional reserve banks and i just have them multiply and lend money to each other until the money supply reaches infinity.

I'm starting to think I should go back to only following Huobi's charts and not Bitstamp.
Also, why is Bitstamp so empty now? No bids. No asks. No volume. It's like gox.

Who are these crazy people buying in with this empty orderbook with no bid support now, and on tradingview the macd is down.

- Governments are writing legislation about and holding publicized meetings about Bitcoin. Bitcoin is already starting to collide with and meet resistence from the establishment. - If you go into a room at least a few people know about bitcoin. - There are several news articles every day about bitcoin. - My Facebook friends are now into Bitcoin. - Bitcoin is often on the front page of Yahoo Business/Finance and other news pages, and often on NPR. - Bitcoin exchanges are getting ready to launch in wall street. - Tens/Hundred of thousands of businesses have already adopted Bitcoin, including major mainstream online retailers.
The "early" phase is over. This might not be the "final" phase but I don't think it's the early phase because there is such a large awareness and adoption already.
The reason the market cap is so small is because people have CHOSEN not to use it. We are not even guaranteed that bitcoin is "the future of money" so your logic of the relation of bitcoin's market cap to angry birds and to some potential market cap of quadrillions of dollars is based on a false premise. Maybe the realistic future of bitcoin is only to reach the market cap of Google or Facebook, in which case we've already realized 1/50 - 1/20 of it. Or maybe the fair market cap of Bitcoin is the market cap of Western Union, which it's already at.
ok, but ... having gone 1 mile out of 20 or even 1 out of 50 miles would still be kinda early. It would not be early if you look at it on a logarithmic chart; it would already be most of the way to the top, given that bitcoin has already risen x1,000,000

I guess breaking through every wall in the 600s so that there is a vacated order book, and touching into a negative MACD was a somehow a bullish thing, and now people want to buy.

december/january: "to prevent manipulation and to help foster a stable btc ecnomy, we are adding a trading commission" march: "to be consistent with our ltc pairings, we are removing the trading commission"
btcchina is whack. Sounds like they have their priorities wrong, or everything the ceo does is some type of manipulation.

Anyone able to load Bitfinex.com ?
Works for me. Its loading now, but during the dumps it went kaput. On another note, LTC is holding like a man! ltc always holds, the dump always comes later. usually yes, but then again, usually the ltc/btc being sideways or slightly down while btc crashes, but now ltc/btc is on their own uptrend, the situation is rare It's becuase the LTC rally is event-based (btcchina, huobi)

Bfx is fine now but the trading engine went on the fritz for about 5 minutes when bitstamp first broke $600. Bitfinex was like.. "whoa, wtf man"

Because people are under the impression that bitcoin is guaranteed a growth rate of 1000% per year every year, based on a 4 year old chart history.

The altcoin nutcases can't comprehend that the China craze is over and that most Chinese volume is now fake. Regardless, I've been buying small increments for a while now because of the charts.
