That means it will fall, just not fail.

Saying that it will never fail is naive because it has fallen to 4000 dollars this year so it sure is able to fall.

If we get a giant recession bitcoin could follow the stock market like it just did and fall lower. It all won't matter much because it will still come out on top. Short term market price is not important.

Many real addicts know this and know they should stop but they keep on doing it.

You can ask any wife beater or child molester. They know it's wrong and every time they do it they apologize and gfeel bad, Then they promise to never do it again, stay strong for a month or two and then it happens again and everything starts over.

The most important step is not to be able to tell the truth and admit to a problem. The most important is to really work on changing it.

I've never had a long break. Probably the longest ones that I had were close to a month. I tend to bet on something at least once a month and usually once every 2 weeks. Sometimes it's an MMA match and sometimes a simple round of poker or blackjack.

I don't spend a lot of money on it but I also don't intentionally stay away from gambling. I know that I can stop if I need to but a small bet from time to time doesn't hurt anyone

Itt may be easier to stop playing but it's also easier to start. Some people have anxieties or are too insecure to go to a crowded casino where everyone watches them and play at a table.

Online gambling gives them a comfort of their own room and the anonymity. There's also no age restriction. They can always lie in an online form when they wouldn't be able to do it in a real casino.

During the halving meaning what? 1 day before and 1 day after?

It went up after each halving but needed a few weeks before it became clearly visible. It happened faster after the first halving and slower after the second. If we follow the same path it may even take a year before we see a new ATH but it will happen.

I find other aspects more interesting like the one that the million dollars OP is talking about can be transferred immediately with alsmost no delay. I know that if you really want to get those dollars you'll need to sell BTC and then transfer those dollars to a bank or an ATM but even this whole operation will still take less time and be less costly than a traditional international bank transfer.

Also nobody will know that you've transferred BTC to someone. For me it's important but think how important this is for big businesses that don't want anybody to know who they're paying and for what.

I think I'm ready. Have been holding BTC for years now but I don't expect a miracle to happen and the price going to a new ATH this year.

What holdinh has taught me is patience. Nowadays I don't follow the price that much and treat it more like a safe haven for my money than a speculative investment.

First you shouldn't keep the money in a bank - I sure wouldn't. Who knows when they'll decide it's bailout time

I'd keep it in cash if I needed it for daily expenses and invest in Bitcoin or gold if I had enough to live comfortably for now.

Like others are saying, Armstrong is exaggerating. People are buying BTC you can see it on the charts but it's not related to the checks. Maybe he should check how many of these 1200 deposits are actually from US citizens.

There are some airdrops that combine the features of a bounty. Many sites organize airdrops but to participate yopu have to do some simple tasks like register on the platform, do KYC, tweet about the promo, maybe even deposit some money.

There are good and bad bounties and good and bad airdrops. You just have to choose well and not get scammed and both will be profitable.

The price or the position on the list is ok to look at and compare, but when you look at the volume it's lik David fighting Goliath. Maybe if Dash dies for some reason or gets banned here and there, or has some critical bug Polis can overtake it but with that volume there's obviously not much interest in this coin.

I heard about this coin because I was for a time interested in PoS coin but most of those coins are pure speculation with no real use. They can claim to have partnerships and such but there's a long way from enabling payments to people using them.

What altcoins need is BTC pushing above 10 thousand dollars or better reaching ATH. If Bitcoin goes to new highs so will altcoins and this is going to be the best catalyst for their rise.

People who invest in Bitcoin and see their investment go through the roof will feel more relaxed and more secure investing some money into unstable altcoins that most people treat like gambling bets.

WTF are you even saying? The whole issue we and Tone had was with this exact statement. He did not break any rules and even if he did there was no explanation as to what rules were broken! He's a TA guy, there's nothing unlawful going on his channel. He's not soliciting anyone and is just like hundreds of other TA people on youtube.

If it was an auto ban like people are saying it also sucks because they should always review any claim instead of allowing bots to decide the fate of accounts that people were building for years.



He's clueless. Used to say that Bitcoin will hit 1000 dollars last year and now he suddenly is bullish and says that we wont even go to 3k again.  
I wouldn't ban his channel though.

They sold you false promises and you bought them. If losing your invested money is the crime you are as guilty as those people who promoted their ICO projects.

Posts like yours show that we aren't ready for decentralization yet. You want proijects to be decentralized and independent but when you get hurt you went the authorities to catch fraudsters and the law to punish them. You want decentralization when it suits you.

How can you say that? Where do you get numbers like that?

People learn what theyre interested in. You can't expect everyone to know something about economy and finances. Does a mechanic need that knowledge? He's got people to handle his finances for him. Do these people know how to fix cars? Probably not and that's why they work with money not with engines and such.

What is important is the ability to learn that the Internet gives us. If you want to learn how to use a wallet you can do it for free.

I prefer coingecko.

One of the reasons for it is how easy it is to switch between currencies in which the charts and all coin values are shown.
I live in the EU so I deal a lot with EUR prices and need to follow these, but I also want to switch to USD views with one click.

The sites are really similar so there's not that many differences between them to make us not use one or the other.

I hope that you understand that you can't give money that you do not have. This means they will have to make money. So they will print money and give it away for people to spend.

They'll dillute the dolladr and make it worth even less and that 2000 that people will think is a lot will kick them in the ass a year later when they'll have to pay $20 for a pack of cigarettes.

Both markets are heavily manipulated. Can we really say that gold is leaving Bitcoin behind? In the last 5 years Bitcoin gained much more value than gold, so it was already ahead.

You're confused about the price because you're looking at a short timeframe. Gold hasn't passed it's ATH from 2013 and 14 yet so it's barely recovering after some corrective years.

Libra was never a threat. It was a threat to other stable coins like usdt. Is usdt a threat to Bitcoin?

I also think that Libra will not come to life. They probably wrapped up after that innitial set of hearings. They have enough money to get off the book statements from commisioners and such and i'm sure they were told there will be no green light this time.

I don't agree with his opinions but he had a very good and informational channel about trading and TA. He never told people what to do just anlysed the charts and gave his opinions.
The hyperwave theory he's following is questionable and Tone is only right in maybe half of his predictions, but he's not doing anything wrong. He's just like any other analyst.

How does his channel break the TOS?

I hate how they never explain which exact point those banned people broke so that they cannot even argue their case.

Why are you so concerned about the short-term price action OP?

Will it pump, will it dump? Does it really matter? If it dumps it's only going to be temporary.

If you want to make a quick buck you can try shorting the stock market. If the recession really hits it's going to fall even lower and these things always come like an aftershock of a big event. The economic shutdown was the event, now we're waiting for the shockwave to hit, starting from the poorest countries affected.
