If the amount of sunshine were permanently cut in half by 50% overnight, the weather would change radically.
The amount of Bitcoin wasn't cut in half. The rate of change was. Try again. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

Good morning Bitcoinland. Still going sideways 2 days after halving non-event. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FYRudafe.png&t=663&c=0btv1bz0dbqR1A) Is anyone surprised? It's like a solstice. The weather doesn't radically change overnight. Even a beanie baby should be able to see that. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi664.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fvv10%2FJimboToronto%2Fbeaniebaby1.jpg&t=663&c=cphkARDYaTb5iQ)

Good morning Bitcoinland. All that halving hoopla and the morning after, we're still going sideways. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FCFZpACj.png&t=663&c=_TVi2MmLwLQkjQ) Honey badger DGAF. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Just got back. I see the halving came and went without a whimper (as expected) and we're most of the way back from the little pre-halving long squeeze.
Ho hum, sideways still. Time for a short squeeze now?
|
|
|
LOL One last long squeeze on the cusp of the halving. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Gotta go if I don't want to miss the first pitch.

Good morning Bitcoinland. Still going sideways I see. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F8RIBtDi.png&t=663&c=IqPXeT8xyIjyzg) As I stated before, I don't expect any major price change today but watching the reaction to the halving should be interesting. Too bad I'll be at the ballpark this afternoon and won't have a chance to comment here at the time. Maybe I'll get a chance to post in the small window of opportunity between the game and my gig tonight.

Please.. this have to be a joke...
Confirmed.

Not good for those still believing in bitcoin. It has clearly collapsed and will continue to do so based on these confirmed datas.
LOL Look who's back, a voice from the past. Ever the trollbear, eh Proudhon? ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) Who's next? Jaroslaw/Walsoraj? Electric Mucus?

Good morning Bitcoinland. I see we had a little dip last night, all the way down to where we were last week. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FpFrksEj.png&t=663&c=AhBd1vW8nHVSbw) Still not what I'd consider a buyable dip but low enough to replace what I spent on the weekend to buy $150 worth of CAD at a vending machine for beer money for the ballpark. Not worth making a separate trip though. I'll just stop in on my way to the SkyDome tonight. Hopefully the price won't rise too sharply before then.

Regarding his bitcoin wealth, some folks speculate that he has nearly 100,000 coins, and I suppose that could be true. If he bought many of his first coins around $1 per coin, he may have also traded a bit too, in order to increase the quantity of coins, so possibly even with an investment of less than $100k could have acquired nearly 100k coins over time, especially given the period in which he started to invest in BTC.
I figure he probably acquired more coins from mining than from trading. Most of those probably cost pennies or less.

there's a storm coming which is called halving. Something is going to happen, I don't believe this trading volume will happen much longer
Yes, but it may not storm immediately. The day of the first halving was uneventful. It took a few months for the real action to start. I'm sure by the year's end we'll see the effects of the second halving.

Good morning (or should I say afternoon?) Bitcoinland. Pretty much the same as yesterday. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FRvv939G.png&t=663&c=kwC3B-J0eb2LyA) Calm before what kind of storm?

Good morning Bitcoinland. Up a little since yesterday I see. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FK7EYJDV.png&t=663&c=3NjplXBGSvetYQ) Back over $700 soon?

Good morning Bitcoinland. I see we had the predictable retrace/profit-taking after breaking $700 again, but it's a little surprising how deep it went. It's all the way back to where it was 3 days ago. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F8Cb9GIP.png&t=663&c=EBnpEraO5TzLMw) Not deep enough to buy though, but I'll keep an eye on it while I'm at the ballpark.

Look bitcoin is not broken, transaction times are decent, fees are decent, the blocks are not full and BTC prices are rising on a pretty decent level...
![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2F40.media.tumblr.com%2F0a95979fad6828c6269b2936136a67d8%2Ftumblr_np1oce12Y31qm88jwo1_1280.jpg&t=663&c=Y8YNnA8fXdITHA) Yeah... you are making shit up, when you are attempting to imply the burning dog scenario, because that is simply not an accurate depiction of the state of affairs in bitcoin... there is no emergency and no looming emergency, except to the extent that bitcoin denialists, anti-bitcoiners, banker shills and XT/classic big blocker proponents are attempting to mischaracterize the situation as if there were some kind of looming doom and gloom scenario on the horizon... In other words, pure scare tactics with almost no factual support in the real world. Amen.

short term looks bullish to me.
$700 on Bitfinex Looks like the almost 2-week-old beartrap is snapping shut. My condolences to anyone who got suckered into selling below $600.

Then again btc has been increasing for almost a year 8 years now.
Except for a short period (2014) it's increased in value at a phenomenal rate.

Bears like you failed to grab cheap btc and now they are trying to bring down btc price by any means. This article is bullshit. Its author is someone from Mike Hern`s camp. Btc`s growth is unstoppable. Please don't feed the trolls and their hysterical, childish pessimism. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi664.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fvv10%2FJimboToronto%2Ftrolls.jpg&t=663&c=1T6yIHnW59cZBQ) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi664.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fvv10%2FJimboToronto%2FTrollbear.jpg&t=663&c=2JR-S3-KNUsuBA)

I guess someday halving will happen again
No guessing required. Halving will happen approximately every 4 years.
