Will it dump back to $3000s or are we gonna see it just keep gradually building steam or a big squeeze and watch it shoot way up, and if it does shoot up will that signal the start of the bull market like Oct 2015 or is it a trap and we've still got months of bottom to watch?

The price hit 5,000 today. Obviously, it will fall back to 4,000 these days. But does anybody know what the hale it is?

For reference, look at October 2015, same thing happened to start the last bull run.

Vatican City 123.431

With an area of only 110 acres (0.17 square miles) and a 2018 population of around 840 inhabitants, Vatican City is the smallest internationally recognized independent state in the world.

It's time for the SEC to cut through this dog shit. It's already known to them that the ETF proposals in their current form don't stand a chance to be approved, especially not while the proposals are also coin backed.

I think the only reason they keep delaying their decisions instead of rejecting them directly, is to avoid making themselves look anti Bitcoin in the public with how easily triggered people in the crypto world are.

Meanwhile, exchanges tokens price are skyrocketing because people speculate that somehow it will increase 100x like Binance did. Hype is too great to deny.

man i figured the bull run wouldn't start till late summer or early fall, but with the price the past 6 weeks or so steadily rising and continuing now at $4100 it could be starting soon. Price is at the top of the bottom range now. Will be interesting to see if it falls back down in the coming week or two or if it breaks out into the mid or high 4000s.

Out of all the exchanges operating in the Eastern part of the world (operating out of Asia), I am most comfortable with Binance. The primary reason behind this revolves around the lack of fake trading volume on their exchange, and the prevalence of fake trading volume around other exchanges.

Even though the New York State AG sent an inquiry to Binance, I do not believe the NYAG has jurisdiction over them.

that is an unnecessary overkill my friend. you have spent a lot of money on something that you only use for cryptocurrencies and it is not that safe if it is connected to the internet so you are not really increasing your security.
if you wanted to spend money like that, then you could have simply bought a hardware wallet to store your bitcoin (and a bunch of other altcoins that are copies of bitcoin) which would have cost a lot less and provided a lot more security.

The Dollar is going to make one last moon shot before it collapses. Just like supernova. Bitcoin will survive no matter what happens but it is not going to moon right away.

The FED prints USD constantly but people still refuse to spend. Actually, most people don't even get that printed money so they can spend. The newly printed money goes to the uber rich people instead.

This is going to blow up so bad but like I said, despite all the money the FED has printed, just because those elites refuse to distribute the money, the dollar liquidity will dry out and it'll moon... and go zero.

It's cool and all that cold wallets are being secured properly, but hacks and insider thefts most of the times concern hot wallets, and these hot wallets can be emptied by every employee who knows where to dig.

In most cases when it concerns insider thefts, you see that before the actual theft the hot wallet has been topped up (in some cases topped up beyond their regular top up amount) and then emptied.

Coinbase prioritizes the security of our customer's funds, all digital currency that Coinbase holds online is insured. If Coinbase were to suffer a breach of its online storage, the insurance policy would pay out to cover any customer funds lost as a result. Coinbase holds less than 2% of customer funds online. The rest is held in offline storage.

Please note that the insurance policy covers any losses resulting from a breach of Coinbase’s physical security, cyber security, or by employee theft.

The Kaspersky Lab report further states that Lazarus is only hosting malware on rented servers. Compromised servers are used to host the command & control scripts. For some reason, Lazarus is disproportionately focused on North Korea’s geopolitical rival, South Korea.

As cryptocurrency exchanges are top of the list among the North Korean hacking group’s targets, Kaspersky Lab has urged vigilance

huh ? both are not simillar so how can you say that  bitcoin follows the stock market ?

Risk-on risk-off is an investment setting in which price behavior responds to and is driven by changes in investor risk tolerance. Risk-on risk-off refers to changes in investment activity in response to global economic patterns. During periods when risk is perceived as low, the risk-on risk-off theory states that investors tend to engage in higher-risk investments; when risk is perceived to be high, investors have the tendency to gravitate toward lower-risk investments.

Investors' appetites for risk rise and fall over time. At times, investors are more likely to invest in higher-risk instruments than during other periods, such as during the 2009 economic recovery period. The 2008 financial crisis was considered a risk-off year, when investors attempted to reduce risk by selling existing risky positions and moving money to either cash positions or low/no-risk positions, such as U.S. Treasury bonds.

What will happen in the event of another global financial crisis (GFC), as it is speculated that a GFC is meant to cycle in about a decade. According to Bitmex, the next wave of a GFC should truly test Bitcoin as a store of value, and I agree.

Will Bitcoin really survive the next financial holocaust?

Btc cant be manipulated like wall street in bitcoin everything is the transparent and limited number of supply of coins every one can trade but cant manipulate the prices

Is Bitcoin Fundamentally Incapable of Mass Adoption? The Economist Thinks So.

An article out today in the Economist lists several reasons why Bitcoin may never have a “long-lasting” recovery. The unnamed author writes, in part:

Agree with the rest but not with this one.
I'm not talking about the government finding a way to regulate trade or put in place legislation.

I'm talking about the IRS (or whatever it is called in those parts)  looking at the financial data of some exchanges and the profit they declare and not take action.

No matter what jurisdiction they go they must present an income sheet at the end of the fiscal year, and when this is messed by 10x-20x you're in trouble.

I think this is the reason why Binance chose to go from HK(?) then to Japan and then flee to Malta, the way "big" exchange are not spending more than two years in the same country is an alarm bell.

This is one thing I don't get.
What are the IRS counterparts in those countries doing?

Because if you fake your volume and I assume by at least 10-20 times, you can't declare that you have made 1 million profits a year with 150 billion traded on your exchange.

I know is China where you can bribe everyone and the government is not touching business run by their own families but there must be a point where it goes way too much out of order and I honestly think we're past the point where intervention is needed.
