I think as you grow older that view changes to the downside.
Probably why there are so many grumpy old guys!
Not including Jimbo of course :-)

^^^^ appreciate the effort.

You know what gets me with all these TA?
Most,if not all that I have listened to (and I do try to understand and listen) have been saying that there is going to be a big move in one direction or another (you would think that this would be a sure thing with bitcoin considering its volatile past) and yet it has traded sideways pretty much for a month now proving everyone wrong (Honey Badger dgaf).
No doubt when it finally does make a move some TA guru is going to say he was right.

Sorry mindrust but this just sounds like pussy talk to me.
The WO gang have balls of steel.

I wish people would wake up and see BTC for what it is.
A truly wonderful gift to the human race capable of solving a lot of financial turmoil and facilitating true wealth growth for individuals and nations alike.
Instead many who have onboarded are only looking to the short term gain of more filthy fiat of which there appears to be no end of.
When will we see the true light?
True HODLers can see.
Stay strong my WO brethren.

That truly was epic.
He placed his 30,000 at 300 which equates to $9,000,000 the Bart move the other day on the dump was around $60,000,000. The stakes are higher now although back then BTC didn't have as many followers so impressive nonetheless.
Is that where the Sparts meme comes from?

Oooops

‘Whale’ Just Sent $130 in Cryptocurrency With a $2.6M Transaction Fee

At least it wasn't BTC

Edit: seems like the person made the same "mistake" twice!

I really struggle to get in to the heads of some of these sellers.
Why would anyone want to give up an asset so valuable for some filthy fiat that banks have an infinite amount of?
Why trade hard money for soft money?
I understand that you can't buy everything with bitcoin yet so you may need to sell a small amount for necessaties but 1000s of BTC makes no sense.
Maybe super yatch manufacturers need to start accepting BTC as payment.

I am sure a great photo opportunity will be had at the next 100k WO party.

Perhaps he thinks that if he throws enough random words into a reply that this will befuddle the interviewer and listeners?
To be fair, it seems to have worked cause I don’t know wtf he was talking about :-)

Edit: btw 4 more blocks until a -9% difficulty reduction.
Bitcoin working as designed and all is well.

So which of the mystic TA Guys drew this Bart then?

I am with you on this one LFC.
I have already moved 10% of my precious to an exchange and setup staggered sell orders ranging from £45000 to £60000.
I know it's way too early but we know how bitcoin goes when she starts hauling ass.

Mempool has finally caught up with the backlog.
Last six blocks have not been full.
Next difficulty change is likely to be in the region of 10% or so.
Everything is back to normal since the halving. Now it's ripe for our great ascension.
I know LFC is ready.
Picked up your last BTC JJG?

I dont know about you guys but it feels eeriely like something is about to explode to the upside.
My bags are packed and Im ready to go to the moon.
Beam me up Scotty.

Gets my vote.
Even DMed me in the past to help out where he could.

Were any of these coins that he was claiming were his?

Very interesting.
I looked at the first few addresses and they appear to have been mined around the very end of Dec 2009 beginning of January 2010. Around block number 31900.
So early coins, yes, but I guess they could be anybody's that were in on the scene back then.
Still anything that smears CSW is good from my point of view.
Anyone else have any ideas,views?

Edit: what's also impressive is that these coins (5000 of them) are still unspent.

What now?
Someone move another early block or something FFS.

Thanks for that.
If this dip was due to the news of this early block movement it highlights just how jittery some of these traders are.
I mean even if this does happen to be Satoshi's coins (which is looking increasingly unlikey) surely he would be entitled to move,spend them.
What is everyone worried about? That he is going to dump the whole lot on to the market in one go?
Why would he do that? It would surely set Bitcoin back a long way if not totally destroy it.
Doesn't seem like a logical thing to do to me.
How is anyone with access to these early coins (Satoshi's or not) meant to use them?
At what point do people feel a certain block is ok but another isnt?
I know Bitcoin is only a mere 11 years old but sometimes this grind can seem a long time.
Still, I am patient and still HODLing strong.

I expect the fees to drop though as we begin to eat through the backlog.
