Meanwhile in the real world:

That article doesn't even mention that after dinner she usually went out to the pub and drank beer with the commoners. Look at the expression of pure joy and anticipation on her face as she pours herself a pint.

That's how you live to be 101 years old.

I think it's OK if you spell it "ghey".  

Edit:

Or you could say this thread's getting a little LGBTQQIP2SAA+

I'd rather see people with less than 100 merits blocked from posting in the WO.

Is he also demanding gluten-free bread and bottles of spring water?

Welcome to the Hotel California New York.  

Get over it Bank Man. You're in jail.

Another Sunday
Spent pondering digitoads
and writing haikus.

New York Yankees lost
Shaved up smooth as Barbie dolls.
They look pathetic.

Do the shave their legs
And maybe their armpits too?
Fun to watch them lose.

Meanwhile with Bitcoin,
The price is going sideways
At twenty-six now.

Real hodlers don't care
About little ups and downs.
One coin is one coin.

You forgot:

* Golden handshake if you fuck up so badly we actually have to fire you.

I'm just lucky I didn't have to sell any today.

My OTC exchange said they would front me a couple of grand at no cost toward completing a sale after locking into a price next week. That should get me through the weekend. I hate having to use bank money. Real cash is so much better.

We both agreed this dip should be done by then. It was mostly weak-hand panic about the Space-X news followed by the usual margin calls.

Onward and upward.

 

While for many (perhaps most) it may be a speculative asset, there are many who use Bitcoin for practical reasons.

It is still the fastest and cheapest way to send money around the world.

Trading, especially with leverage, or using derivatives is just stupidity. The manipulators will eat you.

Always take your profits in Bitcoin. Fiat currencies are a sucker's bet.

Simply convert your fiat to Bitcoin whenever you can and convert your Bitcoin to fiat only when you absolutely must.

Edit: Actually 50%/50% tarders to investors doesn't really represent the WO.

It's more like 33% tarders, 33% investors and 34% merit whores.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Not so good really. Just woke up to see we finally hit $26K. I need more coffee.

Held off buying some dollars yesterday, hoping for a Bitcoin rebound. Instead it was the dollar that ended up costing me more. Luckily it's just a few thousand dollars weekend pocket cash.

I can wait until late afternoon when I go to pick up the cash to lock in the price. It bounced off $26K quite nicely and seems to be on the rise.

Let's see what the next few hours bring.

25K?  It didn't even make it down to 26K.

$26266 to be exact.

Caveat emptor? What a quaint idea. Don't you know that everything should be returnable?

That's the trouble with fiat cash or Bitcoin. You actually have to think before you spend.

Anyone with a large enough holding can manipulate the market.

Market prices depend largely on exchanges which can be manipulated with mere hundreds of bitcoins.

The big players transact OTC in thousands or tens of thousands of coins.

They're more than happy to lose smaller amounts on exchanges in order to accumulate or liquidate much more OTC in order to realize great profits, usually Bitcoin profits.

The time to sell is when you absolutely must.

The amount to sell is the absolute minimum.

I guess it depends on when you were born.

I was born in the 1940s so I still kinda think of the 1950s as being "modern".

You know: transistors replacing vacuum tubes, jets replacing propeller airliners, rock&roll replacing swing, computer punchcards, beatniks, etc... ultra modern.

I still think of Eminem as being recent even though many here weren't even born when he was recording.

My grandmother was born in a time of horses and buggies, kerosene lamps and telegraphs. By the time she died at the age of 97 she'd seen the coming of electric lights, cars, radios, airplanes, income taxes, 2 world wars, the great depression, the atom bomb, television, men on the moon and computers in people's homes.

I remember horses on the streets of Toronto, washboards, iceboxes, shellac records, and vacuum tube radios and coal furnaces, but I was quick to jump into computers, the internet, peer-to-peer filesharing, decentralization and of course Bitcoin.

You can relate to the past without being stuck in it.

It's still Sunday here.
There's still time for a haiku
On a Sunday night.

Dog days of summer
And Bitcoin's going sideways.
It's just typical.

Really no big thing...
Just standard summer doldrums.
Thank gawd for AC.

An autumn bull run
Should lead us to the halving
And a bigger rise.

I believe Texas is in the USA.

My wife insists it's occupied Mexican territory though.   

31.67K? At what exchange? I thought we used Bitstamp as a reference around here.

It hit $31818 at Stamp on July 12.

Ho hum.
