Can't wait to get in, but will wait after airdrop, # of coins will increase x9, the dump will be massive.

# of coins is only increasing 1%

People will wait until it goes on poloniex. They saw how much pascal coin went up, and will hold their byteballs until they get the same increase on poloniex.

There wasn't much of a dump after the last airdrop and there won't be much of one after this airdrop.

I'm not sure about the time frame might take a couple of weeks maybe of not much movement. But I'm feeling comfortable about the bottom too. Looking forward to next week.


It was only a month ago I was advising someone to close his sell order at $780. A month later and its crashed to $880. If this is the bottom it's up $100 from a month ago.
 


You are saying?  "if this is the bottom"

At this time, we have a price battle that kind of started three weeks ago and the bears kind of let the prices go up further than they wanted (or maybe they were kind of willing to let it go up)..... anyhow, now there is a battle that seems to be starting...   There is a disagreement about price. Sure, maybe we will end up in the $880s, but there are a lot of areas between about $600 and $1140 that we could end up...

O.k.  Maybe I am being a bit broad with my description of the range.. but it just seems too early to call anything...

There is a potential of another test of support in the lower $800s, but yeah, maybe we don't go there, and then that scenario would be bullish... but I don't think that you can determine either bearish or bullish in the short term because we gotta get some resolution of this $600 to $1140 range... which is pretty fricken broad at the moment, and surely if we do not get further test of the bottom and $880 ends up being the bottom, as you are suggesting, then that would be a pretty bullish scenario that does not yet seem to be a given (I would ballpark that scenario at less than 45%.. but yeah surely it is difficult to know for sure while in the very beginning stages of what appears to be a disagreement about price)

Three months ago it was $600. I think your most bearish bottom of $600 is unlikely. The summer resistance at $800 is now a support level. If it does crash back to $600 I think it wouldn't take long to go back up. I'm bullish, this strikes me as a bear trap.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Away for a day but I see I didn't miss anything. It's still about the same... $764USD/$1016CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

Isn't it about time for another assault on $780?
I've had a sell order at $780 for a long time, set it up literally the second after the market fell in June and it hasn't been hit yet - wonder if we'll break it this time.

I'd cancel it. If it goes above $780 it will probably go above $800. The last high is a resistance point, and traders will have placed secret buy orders above it. If it stays below $780 the traders will consider the last two $779 highs a double top, and if it goes above $780 the traders will consider it as an indication of another bull run.

Now people are realizing the China bans bitcoin story was bullshit there's a chance bitcoin might slowly cycle upwards for some time. History tells us bitcoin crashes when rumors of a Chinese bitcoin ban start, then recovers from the crash when people realize the rumors were false and China hasn't banned bitcoin.

Recently, the Chinese government and the People’s Bank of China offered reasonable suggestions to Bitcoin exchanges and users, discouraging fake volumes and offline scam-like promotions while asking users to maintain responsibility for their independent actions.

But some media outlets, mostly western-based, used the events to spread panic among Chinese investors, leading the price of Bitcoin down to $830.


I think blaming the media for this correction is far fetched at best. The correction was due. Quit trying to blame someone for it.

Despite the fact the correction was due, the media created some China bans bitcoin hysteria at exactly the same time as the correction. It most likely drove the price down further, and for longer than it would have done.

The first time the China bans bitcoin story was published in 2014 it undoubtedly caused a massive crash. This time it might not have caused the crash, but it put people off buying back in until they were sure it was bullshit.
226  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: January 08, 2017, 09:43:55 PM
we'll see a Big move tonight, maybe above 1000$ again.

i guess that means you altcoiners will get to pick up your altcoins on the cheap?


based on what facts you say this about tonight?

I love the optimism but history tells a different story.  It's hard to revisit highs after a major dump.  "Oh shit ... I missed the moon ... I need to get off this bitch ... I hope it bounces back up so I can recoup losses".

Those who held thinking they were going to get a better price and those who simply bought at the high get scared and pray for a chance to dump their coins. Hopefully to break even or make a small profit. Some are so scared they sell for losses.

History tells us bitcoin will slowly cycle downwards for some time. Believe me, I wish the opposite.

"We will provide 3 months withdrawal service..."

https://bter.com/article/11868

Even when bter has delisted a coin it still enforces maximum daily withdrawal limits. If you have a lot of mint on bter don't wait until the last minute to withdraw them. It might take a week to withdraw a big amount as there's a maximum allowed each day.

salma hayek. i don't understand what she's supposed to represent in terms on bitcoin. she certainly seems to make regular appearances here for some reason.

Neither do I, but I found 20 animated gifs of her. Nobody ever posts animated gifs of her.

Answer from support:

"The problem of server logic, leading to more than 1000 bits in platform hot wallet share, more than 1000 future currency and a few other digital assets, such as BTC/LTC is missing, but we will bridge the funding gap. Users will not have a loss. Other COINS will be this two days to return to work."

Thanks, although I thought they would have announced it on twitter there are no tweets about it yet. If there's only 1000 bitcoins missing its better than the entire 10000 bitcoins they were holding going missing.

I'll be interested to watch the daily Winklevoss auctions these days.

https://geminiauctionhistory.bitballoon.com/

Thanks for the link. Didn´t know it.

Very interesting.

I didn't realise their volume was so high with their auctions included. There are frequent days when they have 1000+ bitcoins auctioned. Gemini might become one of the biggest exchanges in the future if its volume continues to increase at the present rate.

I used this link to see the data instead of Chainsaw's.

it's up! btc withdraw is working
bts withdraw system busy 2, pps withdraw - system busy 2 guess nxt and xem as well



Their site's not loading properly for me, it's only partially loading. The orders aren't loading in the order book and neither are the site's images in the English version.
233  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] BTC38.com - Crypto exchange launched its English sites on: December 21, 2016, 09:04:06 PM
The exchange is down for 6 hours now.
No way to contact them. No news.

Also, They started to move all their funds to another wallets 6 hours ago, for example:
BTS: https://cryptofresh.com/u/btc38-btsx-octo-727222
NXT: https://mynxt.info/account/NXT-S4U4-CQYX-WD4K-76REZ
NEM: http://chain.nem.ninja/#/search/NA5PXB-3KOIEQ-R3XLS6-QHPNXZ-Z5LMLC-JTGZJM-BKTQ

No movement from the new wallets since.
I'm watching it. I had a lot of funds on the exchange.


any link to btc cold wallet? or to another cold wallets? they had list of cold wallets but i can't google it now, even in cashe

They say they have 10541 bitcoins combined from all their users, although they don't give a cold storage address.

Total Amount of All Users: 10541.571265, Address of the Cold Storage:coming soon.

They're holding hundreds of millions of dollars of user funds,
and if they disappear, it will be about mtgox size disaster (not bitfinex).
and the irony here is: Nobody talking about it at all!!!


Doubt, their volume was not big last year. It could be compared with cryptsy not mtgox.
Proly there are some talks on china forums?

Their volume varies.

You can find historical 24 hour volume snapshots for most exchanges (including btc38) here.

https://web.archive.org/web/*/https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/volume/24-hour/

The 1 December volume was $365,276

The 7 December volume was $1,550,947

The 14 December volume was $570,165

The 20 December volume was $1,460,778

Thanks for the hint, I'm learning quite a lot on this thread =)

Although I hate giving advice in case it's rubbish, this time I was 99.9% sure it was good. I hope starmman cancelled that sell order at $780. Once bitcoin got past $780 there was no stopping the bull run.

Have you ever ask yourself if have guvernment and banks allready done/chosen their own coin and now they just wait for the best moment to bring it to us?  


Cameroon's government chose and launched its own altcoin last year. It was designed to help the unbanked store money, and send it across the country.

https://cointelegraph.com/news/cameroon-government-implements-centralized-altcoin-trest

Quote
The government of Cameroon has implemented a centralized, insecure and potentially dangerous blockchain protocol and currency Trest in their project to enable the unbanked to transfer money quickly without transaction fees.

Unlike Bitcoin, transactions on the Trest blockchain are not verified by miners or any entity incentivized by the network. The developer of Trestor, Kunal Dixit, has said:

“The Trestor Network (T-Net) is not powered by miners but volunteers, because T-Net is not hostage to miners, all transactions are free and always will be.”

As reported by CNN, 90% of the country’s population is unbanked, and the country has more mobile money accounts registered than bank accounts. Through its active support for the implementation of Trestor’s payment network and digital currency Trest, the government says it hopes to help the unbanked transfer money nationally.

Has anyone found a thread to my open challenge yet?


You mean this challenge?

Here's an open challenge:

Link me to a recent open discussion (not in the market) that has over 20 pages of replies where more than 25% of those replies DO NOT have a paid signature advertisement

Have a look at the last twenty pages of this thread and you will find less than half the replies have a paid signature. The thread's in speculation, not the market.
