A far cry from $3800 or $2600. Just a tiny correction.

@explorer:

Great minds think alike. So do ours.

@bones261:

Maybe you're right but after bouncing right back up after that last dip, it's looking less likely. Also the local ATM barely lowered their buy fee (7.3%).

I'll finish dinner and see if anything's changed


Standard profit-taking/correction we always get after an extended rally and upon reaching a milestone. No big deal.

Oh noes. My bitcoins are only worth what they were worth yesterday. (Too busy eating to post meme.)

Not deep enough of a dip to be a buying opportunity.

Wow. While I was typing it dropped another $100. After I finish eating I just might go shopping after all.

Or did I already miss my chance?

Those graphs are meaningless.

Bitcoin isn't some stock to be predicted by "technical" analysis or other pseudoscience. The steep rise since August 1 is due to the resolution of the scaling crisis and renewed confidence.

It also didn't go from $5000 to $4800. It had a small correction from $4979 to $4824 after rising by more than $300 in a single day and over $800 in 4 days (Bitstamp).

There is no reason for the price to crash. If anything, this correction proves that it is not in a bubble and it's reasonable to expect it to continue rising in price.

I think it's time to bring back newbie jail. The influx of noob trolls is getting ridiculous.

4 jackpots in a row.

Back in the saddle again.

Tax authorities?

When the time comes to sell, capital gains are easy to determine from the price at time of acquisition as recorded on the blockchain.
 

Paper wallets FTW.

Or Roger Ver. 

Those of us who hold both BTC and BCH have gotta be loving this. Combined they're worth $5475USD/$6805CAD.

I bought my first coins for $68CAD each. That's 10,000% profit. Bitcoin has been berry berry good to me. 

 

An extra early but extremely jolly good morning Bitcoinland.

The daily ATHs just seem to keep coming... currently $4892USD/$6060CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

Meanwhile AltcoinCash continues to creep up... $600USD/$745CAD (Coinmarketcap).

Ain't life grand?

An early but splendid good morning Bitcoinland.

Another day another ATH... currently $4740USD/$5955CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

The surprising thing is that AltcoinCash is also up... $595USD/$752CAD (Coinmarketcap).

A great day for those of us who hold both.

Go Bitcoin go.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Basically sideways, down ever so slightly... currently $4570USD/$5765CAD (BitcoinAverage).

Meanwhile, AltcoinCash is still slowly creeping down... to $565USD/$708CAD (Coinmarketcap).

Just a boring day of consolidation after yesterday's rise. I think I need extra rich coffee. Yawn.


I prefer to take my profits in Bitcoin. 

Well, well, well. A very pleasant good morning Bitcoinland.

I see I just missed a new ATH and subsequent correction/profit-taking... currently $4610USD/$5760CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

AltcoinCash continues to slide slowly down.... $575USD/$716CAD (Coinmarketcap).

There are still a couple of days left in August. $5kUSD may be a longshot this month but it's still possible.

Go Bitcoin go.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Still going sideways... $4358USD/$5438CAD (Bitcoinaverage). Surprisingly Altcoin cash hasn't slipped too much... $619USD/$772CAD (Coinmarketcap).

No weekend fireworks so far. Still have a few days left in the month to get a new ATH in. $5kUSD would be nice.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Down slightly but still basically sideways... currently $4308USD/$5377CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

AltcoinCash also down a smidgen... $626USD/$781CAD (Coinmarketcap).

Ho hum. Yawn.

Good AM Bitcoinland.

Still creeping upward... currently $4438USD/$5548CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

AltcoinCash maintaining up at $643USD/$804CAD (Coinmarketcap).

New ATH coming soon?

I just checked Coinmarketcap and they list AltcoinCash at $643USD (down 3.36%).

Considering it dipped to $170 on fork day and then rose to $750 before dropping by half again and rising to an ATH, I'd say anything over $600 is doing well.

I expected a bigger change with segwit activation but we'll have to wait and see.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Well, segwit's here and there's no big price change yet... currently $4245UDS/$5315CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

AltcoinCash is also hanging tough at $648USD/$812CAD (Coinmarketcap).

So far, so good.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Still creeping up nicely after that lovely dip a couple of nights ago... currently $4222USD/$5205CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

AltcoinCash is also still hanging in there at $670USD/$842CAD (Coinmarketcap).

Let's see how things go when segwit is fully activated.

Fun.
