OP is a well known troll here. Don't take anything he says seriously.
Just because we all hate Craig Wright and think he is a complete fuckwad, doesn't mean that he isn't Satoshi no matter how much we want Satoshi to be some really cool nice guy. Get used to it: Craig Wright is Satoshi and there is really no way to undo that. If Craig had access to Satoshi's addresses he would have used them long time ago. Especially now when he's waging a war with Roger Ver and the real Bitcoin those Bitcoin would be able to tip the scales. He's telling everyone he's Satoshi because he doesn't have the money ad knows that nobody can hack, rob, or abduct him, because he's broke and he's not the real deal. He's playing a dangerous game though. People would kill for much less. |

Even USDT is down. This must be in connection with the stock market crash and dollar gaining value. I see no other explanation for every coin including stablecoins moving down in value despite there being no bad news, no FUD, and the possibility of BAKKT and ETF. When nobody knows what's going on it looks staged and manipulated, but let's give them time to make something up.

Everybody is expecting another crypto boom by the end of this year like the last, why the crash now?
Because nobody was expecting it. Bitcoin always does the unexpected. A good indicator is tradingview. When most people there say that it's over and it's going to go down hard you can expect that it will go up and when they predict an uptrend you can expect that it will go down. last week most of them predicted that since we were going flat for so long we have to had bottomed out. Guess what, they were wrong! |

There are 2 reasons I can imagine this happened:
1) Future contracts expiration. It's usually used as an excuse to dump on the market and try to buy the dip after it triggers noobs into panic selling
2) Bcash fork: A lot of noobs are reading news and watching youtube videos of Craig Faketoshi Wright taking over BCash then taking over BTC. Tomorrow is the day this circus clown will ensue.
But generally, you don't have to look beyond the fact that Bitcoin is valued in infinite ponzi fiat currency and they manipulate it to pick as much BTC as possible away from noobs until 2030 when they default on the infinite fiat debt and BTC becomes world unit of account.
i think this https://www.ccn.com/tokens-continue-to-take-a-hit-is-sec-preparing-to-target-crypto-projects/article sheds some dim light on what is going on...the selling pressure is relentless and orchestrated. certainly it is not bch drama, too ridiculous a reason. however if sec is very very close to "having talks" with some exchanges (and thus insiders may be dumping using bch as a curtain) than we may be one step closer to the death of the centralized exchanges in the form we know them. i would appreciate your thoughts. Are there really any decentralized exchanges? If you're talking about P2P exchanges or localbitcoins then maybe, but all biggest exchanges like coinbase, bitfinex and the rest are centralized. If you send your coins to them, you put them in control. If they decide that your coins were used to commit a crime at some point they'll be able to block them and force you to explain where you got them from. It's a great example of government intervention and centralization. |

Not so much with the BCH fork, but with the BCH team yes.
They have announced to once again attempt to overtake Bitcoin from from the top.
Considering they have at least 200k-300k BTC to dump, and this was less than 10% total (of which many is just others panicing as a result), expect a bloodbath and prices to revisit 2014.
You can stop dreaming already, it will save you from disappointment. Bitcoin's long term trendline is far above 1000 dollars, above the highest point in 2013 and 2014. We won't see this ever again as long as Bitcoin exists and works. If somebody one day finds a way to hack blockchain or disable it somehow you can expect 1000 again, but I wouldn't count on that. If it's all about BCH shouldn't its value be rising? From what I'm seeing BCH is tanking just like Bitcoin. |

No one except a total novice will say bitcoin is stable because it never will. Bitcoin is a highly volatile currency, therefore it's stability remains undetermined. It's either in bullish or the bearish form, depending on the market.
There's nothing established about Bitcoin. It can be unstable for years and then become stable. You can judge the trend only when the pattern occurs enough times. Bitcoin had a real bull and bear market only once before. This is the second long bear market in 10 years. We don't know what to expect and we won't know until it plays out. |

omg, everything red on coinmarketcap right now.. bitcoin down as well.. just barely over 6200 usd right now.
LOL, look right now. Bitcoin $5.6k  Almost everything down more than 10% last 24 hours. What is going on?  EDIT: But wait, that might be the perfect time to buy? When Bitcoin dipped below $200 people's reactions were the same. The end is here, cryptocurrency is dying, it's all red, but it was the best moment to buy. Such moments appear regularly. It's funny that later on when Bitcoin is gaining value people complain that they could have been rich. That Bitcoin was so cheap. This pattern is repeating every 2-3 years. You get a chance to buy Bitcoin at a discount so take it, don't let it pass you by. |

LOL, you all dumbtards!!
<blah blah blah> worthless piece of shit rolling in dust <blah blah blah>
All you dumb morons <blah blah blah> you greedy fucks <blah blah blah> brain dead zombies <blah blah blah> you fkn idiots.
This sums it up in short for those of you who don't want to read the our preacher's wise words  Posts like this one are usually made by idiots who held and sold in panic losing ultimately getting less fiat out than they had put in. Post like this one always appear after a long and exhausting bear market is coming to an end. Be happy if you bought some coins today, I sure am. |

Fake satoshi, a doctor of theology, which in fact is a study of mumbo jumbo, is telling you that BCH, an altcoin that is worth almost nothing compared to Bitcoin, is the real Bitcoin. We should really do what he says, he must know what he's doing. Follow Satoshi's vision! He wanted to create BCH but made Bitcoin by mistake |

We've just reached the prices from November 2017. Bitcoin has come full circle. It went from close to 5500 dollars this time last year to 20,000 2 months later and after a year long correction came back to where it started from. Isn't that a perfect correction? If this continues to play out perfectly we should have 3-4 months of boring flat market followed by another rally in Summer - Autumn 2019.

If Mining BTC Even with free electricity cannot pay the mining equipment in a year, that will be the doomsday of BTC, 2000$-2500$ is the limit.
Use your head once in a while! When Bitcoin was in the bear market of 2016 with prices below 4000 miners were also below the point of profitability with no way to pay off equipment bought in 2014 for $600 and more. Did that destroy Bitcoin? Even if we repeat 2015 and 16 worst thing that can happen is another 6 months of bear market and maybe 4000 dollar low |

Great  If it means what I think it means they are going to grant more freedom and independence to the market. The role of the government is to help people, regulate in order to make it safer and more convenient, not regulate to make it harder for businesses to operate like the government of the USA. I hope that more countries will choose this approach and follow the lead of Malta, Japan, and many other Bitcoin friendly countries, where you don't have to worry about being arrested for selling on localbitcoins. |

It has the same impact on the price as that rumor that somebody bought a couple million tethers and people were writing articles that suggested they're getting ready to buy Bitcoin. Nothing happened nobody moved the price so the money went into many different cryptocurrencies or stayed in tether. You're worrying too much. Don't start thinking about every single market action, it's a waste of time.

However, I think the Bitcoin network needs upgrades like this.
Bitcoin is getting upgraded. You got segwit and you are getting lightning network. What more do you want? Too many upgrades is also bad because it makes the coin more vulnerable and divides the community. Because of how BCH community is pushing for it to be better and better they're getting into arguments and can't achieve any adoption. Sometimes slower is better. |

It's in fact very stable for the moment. Last time we saw a similar stability in 2016 when the bear market was coming to an end. It certainly is an opportunity if you have money lying around. Especially that there's a lot of value to gain towards Bitcoin's previous all time high and very little to lose if we take 2017 prices as the bottom. It can maybe go another 1000 down, but at the same time 10,000 is a very probable price in 2019.

Japan, a country slightly smaller than the state of California, decided it was a good idea to attack the United States (a country with nearly limitless natural resources to create a war machine). I’m thinking they don’t always make the best decisions. Maybe the radioactivity from the nuclear bombs the U.S. dropped on them is finally effecting their brains.
Do you really don't know the reasons behind their attack or are you only acting like that? The Japanese fleet was the biggest in the world at the time and the US fleet was not only smaller but also divided between 2 oceans. Japan did not want to occupy the US. It wanted to take all Pacific Islands and bully US into defending their coastline to make sure they won't interfere. They had a strategy prepared but mistakes were made. |

~ 10/15 accident of USDT, which caused a sudden & incredible price increase of bitcoin/eth,
there was no bitcoin price increase! you were mistakenly looking at Tether/Btc and thought that is bitcoin price. instead you should have checked USD/bitcoin to see the price did not change. Really? I'm looking at BTC/USD chart and there's a huge spike from 6200 to almost 6800 on Bitstamp. Bitfinex went even higher. And it didn't go back to 6200 from there, even weeks later. It looked like a sign of volatility on USD markets. I doubt BTC is ever going to be stable. Maybe in 100 years if people abandon fiat completely. |

Now so many fraudulent projects that it just does not fit in my head. Almost every project either pays nothing or they turn out to be scammers. I think the bounty era has come to an end and now it is not profitable
It's the same with signature campaigns. You can feel the crypto winter in full force on this forum. A year ago you could be choosing from many different campaigns and they would be competing with rates. Now you are lucky if you still are in an active campaign because there are no new ones opening up. If the existing ones shut down it will be very hard to earn money here. |

It's so nice to hear Xmas bull run. But, reality check shows no signs of bullish market. Though I can consider the market so positive about th current situation showing stable prices. But this is not investors wanting for, they want the hype as last year especially those who hold their coins since last year. Maybe next year, things change for the better.
There are also no signs of the bear market. Bear market characterizes with falling prices not with prices that don't go up. Stability is a sign of one market ending and another beginning. It can begin in a week or in a year though, we can't know it, but it seems that we are at the end of this year long bear market. |

Not all governments are greedy. Some want only a small contribution. You can see it on the Wikipedia's income tax page. In some countries there's no income tax, in other there's no crypto tax, in some other the tax is really small like 10% or less. I think we all could lose 10% of our income without becoming poor or having to hide our income to avoid taxes. The whole world is not the same, there are countries that don't want to steal from you and you can always move there.
