You guys...Bitcoin was never meant to upset anyone...especially wealthy bankers. Should we shut it down? Do you think they will forgive us? Can we take up some donations for those affected?
Fuck 'em. They outright called it a fraud, rat poison, and harvesting baby brains. All while their house-of-cards empire slowly crumbles. The gloves are off, no quarter.

Longs ready to get squeezed. Just like the shorts. And again no one is talking about it yet.
Oh noes, a short squeeze instead.

You know what this thread is also about?
It's about people coming in and contributing something, anything, of value rather than simply being an asshat and criticizing the purpose/value of this thread.
My fault. Thought it was "a Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion". Well then post some "Bitcoin price movement & discussion" instead of being douchey. Or go back to the shitcoin threads.

Is this thread still about btc or should it be moved somewhere else?
Blasphemy! This is THE thread. The actual words written are irrelevant. The tone of the conversations will give you some clues about the general market sentiment. Stay tuned Very true, there is a reason why it is the number one bitcointalk thread Because it is about nazis, jews and computers? Well, fine then, Bitcoin is dead. You know what this thread is also about? It's about people coming in and contributing something, anything, of value rather than popping in and being an asshat by criticizing the purpose/value of this thread.

I feel like the big whales left this market some time ago, and now the bots are just trading on algos alone. We're going basically sideways now on wash trading.
There's some smaller guppies still trying to push the market up and down, but alas I think they realize that they're not getting any help. They will tire and lose interest. Within 2-3 more months I think we will have bottomed.

Just realized why you all want a Lamborghini. Ferrari is owned by Fiat
Nice meme I didn't get it. What the heck is wrong with having a Ferrari and being a bitcoiner. Are you joking with Fiat as in fiat money? Explain I'm curious I'm sure the joke was Fiat as in 'fiat currency'. But even if it wasn't, heck I'd own a Fiat 500 Abarth in a hot minute. Sweet lil' cars.

With a +7-10% buy premium, people will never use them though. This is not true. People will use them for the novelty of owning bitcoin, or for buying very small amounts. Or because they don't have a better way to do it. But I agree with the spirit of your post. Until these things begin to become competitive they will stay in the general realm of being a novelty. TBH I'm not sure what these Bitcoin ATM operators are thinking with having those premiums so high. I assume it's an attempt to recoup the cost of the ATM itself maybe? But they would do well to get those buy premiums down to at least 2-3%, otherwise people will just jump online to do it.

That's really sad. OpSec is always important. But especially in countries like Russia, where it seems like nefarious criminals are just waiting to pounce on the innocent.

one thing we do know about bitcoin is that it can take a punch and get back up.
there is probably no other new technology in history that has been bad-mouthed, ridiculed, shat-on-from-high-places like bitcoin.
We've had central bankers, top-ranking bureaucrats, bankers, economists, futurists, market-pundits, comp. science gurus all going out of their way to shit on a new technology for over 8 years, it's unprecedented. Are they afraid it might actually work and be a great technology? What does that say about them?
Take all the nastiest, hateful comments you've ever read about bitcoin and replace the word "bitcoin" with "computer", "software", "internet", "television" "radio", "electricity" or "the wheel" and .... well, there you have it. The social, emotional reactions to bitcoin are not rational; people generally cannot discuss or think about money rationally, they are trying to fight/denigrate a new technology politically or on philosophical grounds. Viewed from afar the overblown, irrational negative reactions look pathetic, distracted and disconnected from the reality of the situation. That's the best evidence yet that bitcoin is onto something, it threatens their livelihood, therefore it's worth a punt, the biggest punt in your life (imho).

* Load ze Korea FUD * http://news.chosun.com/site/data/html_dir/2018/05/11/2018051101843.htmlFrom Twitter: "Upbit, South Korea's biggest cryptocurrency exchange operated by the subsidiary of Kakao, the country's largest tech conglomerate, was investigated by local police and 10 investigators. Police thinks Upbit faked its balance sheet and deceived investors." Riiiight...

In a bear market every news is bad news. In a bull market every news is good news.
Just doesn't make sense.
Meanwhile in the stock market: Company posts a quarterly loss, stock pumps +10%. Company beats on earnings across the board, stock crashes -10%. Just doesn't make sense.

As immoral as trading freshly harvested baby brains. I agree. Trading freshly harvested baby brains is evil and will almost certainly end badly... I would short that market if there was an easy way to do it. I heard a rumor that you can buy a freshly harvested baby brain on the darknet market with BCash. I hope Charlie Munger doesn't find out.
