It depends on the exchange that you're watching. On Bitstamp the level to watch is 10500 USD If we can reach and defend this position it's going to be the highest price since September 2019 and a sign that there's basically no resistance between that level and 12k, maybe even 13k, just like there's nothing between 14k and 20k so if that happens we'll go up very fast.
IMO, we won't see 20k this year, but it would be nice to witness another run up, like the one in 2017.

There is something worse: Indian tech support.

I use a lot of Chinese products and their quality can range from good products, like Xiaomi electronics, or total garbage fake crap like a lot of the power banks, batteries, cables and connectors that come from China. As for the EU products, most of them are still made in China, just assembly and quality check is done in the EU. All plastic molds and stuff come from Asia, same as all components like capacitors, circuit boards and such are usually Chinese, even in US/EU made products.

Don't we have cash? Many people live with no banks, using 100% cash transactions. Don't forget that all those places where you can pay with a card also accept cash. You can even buy stuff in the Internet and then go to your local post office and pay for the purchase with cash. I've been in a stituation where the card terminal was unable to connect with the network and the cashier asked if I could pay with cash numerous times in my life, which proves that cash is the more acceptable form of payment.
No banks does not mean no fiat money.

Bitcoin likes to do the unexpected but things are really looking like we could be forming a double top at 10k right now, which would suggest a pullback.
I'm not buying norselling at this point. Pretty much a do nothing zone for me, but if I were a trader who bought at 8.9k, I'd be looking to take some profit.

There are many stories like that. People were mining in data centers, power plants, even nuclear institutes.


No. He goes to jail for not registering a business. You have to do it every time when you run a big operation like that. You can maybe avoid it when you sell hotdogs on a sidewalk but for a million dollar operation?

Don't be so sure. The world would have to unite to fight a greater threat for it to happen, but it's a possibility. It doesn't have to be some kind of alien attack, but a comet or some big natural disaster. Right now people are focused on showing off and flexing their muscles but this state of matter can change in an instant.

You know, both weed and alcohol are painkillers and alcohol can be used as antiseptic. Those are essential goods, just like morning coffee and the Internet.


Children can do whatever they want. Statistically the chances of them being hit by a car or breaking a limb on the playground are much higher than covid mortality rates.

We don't have to talk about millions or 100k for Bitcoin when mentioning ATH. As a matter of fact, if Bitcoin went back to 20k it would already be at its ATH and the condition OP is talking about would be met. I'm pretty sure we will touch 20k again. If it ends up being rejected, so be it, but it's important to tell those naysayers that it's very probable. I'd give it about 90% probability that within the next 2 years we'll attack 20k.

Really? I think the opposite. As they say, any publicity is good and this is especially true for inanimate objects that you can't blame for any wrongdoings.
I believe what we're looking at is another calm before the storm. Look at how the market is usually in bearish panic, then in a state of limbo and enters a bullish FOMO. We were in a state of bearish panic since 2018 and since we first begun to move in a 6-10k channel we've entered this pause between market cycles.

Who would have the power in the company if not the employees? We do not know which access level was responsible for the leak. Don't forget that managers and group leaders are also employees. If they had no access to sensitive data they wouldn't be able to deal with support cases, user verification, account management and all that.

They are obviously afraid that decentralization will make their job harder. Every single day the FBI is trying to connect people, and evidence together and the more we are able to do in the Internet the harder it is for those old knuckleheads who got their training in the 80s and 90s to put all the pieces together. Times change and if not through Bitcoin it would be through something else that they'd lose their grip. Old people have to either learn and evolve or be replaced by new, younger agents who grew up playing computer games, jailbreaking phones and mining cryptocurrencies.

Ok, so I go out of the house and into the car, I drive to a gas station, then to a public park, how am I getting shot at by covid aerosols?
I don't do covid tests because they suck and in most cases come out inconclusive. Also they're pretty expensive.
No symptoms = no virus. It's been months and still I haven't heard of anyone that I know who had it or at least felt bad and thought it's because of the virus. All my friends have been living their lives as usual, travelling, having barbecues with friends, going to parties, shopping. None of them had any symptoms.


About 60% of people I see in publc places go around with no mask or with its upper part barely touching the mouth. Pretty much a dead law.

He was high or drunk when he wrote that and it went viral. He probably decided to ride it as people were quoting and praising him for this bold prediction but then had to backtrack so instead of saying he was wrong,he chose the "angry way out" and attacked bitcoiners. Bitcoin is shit according to him, altcoins are better and it was all a lie to pump bitcoin.
Summary? McAfee is an untrustworthy liar, a shitcoin pumper, a celebrity for hire. If he ever had any reputation in the Internet, it's gone now.

Collector's value? If Bitcoin would be reduced to that it's trading volume would probably be near 0.
I voted for the second option. I haven't bought any bitcoins for a long time since I went all in long ago and now have to spend all my fiat on my daily needs. I'd still use it and hold it if there was no new ATH, although I feel like it's still greatly undervalued at 9k. I'd appreciate a stable price between 15k and 20k. 

Most of you seem to think that the price has to keep going up for the market to be bullish but you're still not looking at the big picture.
First of all, Bitcoin has never gone up just like that right after the halving. Instead, it kept relatively steady for months before it took off and the time between the halving and the peak of the bull market was greater each time. You also have to consider the coins coming to the market each day, increasing the supply. The fact that despite the pandemic and miners selling we are still holding steady at 9k makes it bullish.

It's not as easy as saying that women don't want children because they are lazy and prefer to spend money on pretty things instead of changing diapers.
The problem in developed countries is that everything is expensive and forces people to spend a large portion of their income on bills. If you compare a country like Nigeria, where people dig a hole in the ground behind the house and burn their garbage in it, don't have to buy winter clothes or heat the house, often barbecue or cook in wood fired ovens, to a typical western city, where you have to pay for everything, even for parking your car. The western society is based on taxes and fees on every step and it forces both parents to work, which is why most couples choose to have a single child.

The poorest of the poor never had a job in the first place so the pandemic is not affecting them at all. If anything, the most affected will be the already disappearing middle class. I'm talking about those small business owners who operate on small margins and cannot shut down for a month without going bankrupt. People on welfare will never be affected by something like that. They can keep watching tv and eating pizza like they used to.

To these "bosses" the workers are nothing more than tools that you use and throw away when they are no longer needed. The only way they can fight is by refusing to work for those people who are known as dishonest and exposing them in the Internet and the media. They more proof they're able to gather the better because for those people (celebrities and brands) the only thing that matters is the public image. Damage that and you'll have them on their knees.

First thing that comes to my mind after reading it is: Justin must be really loaded from all those victims or as they call them "investors" if he's able to buy a dinner with Waren and later throw away a million dollars just like that. If you guys own Tron you should be asking when exit.


All those beggars from the altcoin section are now looking for those hackers.

Nice FUD to scare the masses and start another wave of raids on stores by hungry TP pirates.
Since when does covid permanently damage internal organs of people who contract it? Most people react to it like they would to a common cold and even pneumonia doesn't do permanent damage unless you ignore it. But most ignored infections can cause death, even something as simple as tonsillitis.
50% deaths from covid is as big of an extrapolation as a million dollar Bitcoin.
