Climbing slowly steadily without traditional ropes or suckers; a tiny speck on the tall tower - only spotted by a few.

By the time the authorities realised, it was too late to stop the incredible ascent.



Inspiring allegories are everywhere:

Where else but the WO for proper analysis?

tea leaves? reading goats entrails?.... or how about that magic eight ball thingy?

Anything for an edge, mate.  Mind you, Binance has probably already read this by now and is quietly cornering the fresh goat market.

For me I do think we might have two runs - since we seem to be ahead of the fractal... but the real one will still be a year after the halvening, so 2021.  And as is traditional, probably December.

Lets find out. New poll time!

Difficult to know what constitutes the end of a bull? Was 2013 two bull runs or one? Well if two, I'll plump for H2 2019.

Yeah I wavered a bit on how to word it. I dunno

Do we only know afterwards, when it crashes by 85%? Wink

Bitcoin crosses 64% dominance on cmc

The relentless Agony of the Alts...

What hurts me more is the BTC count going down in Blockfolio app, even with a basket of coins being 96% BTC.
But then i see the usd total value, and i smile again..

I kept a bit more than 4% alts, since I managed (way back) to trade the majority of them into profit, meaning the ones I've kept are at zero cost. 

Last bull run, I didn't sell my BTC, I sold alts for BTC and cashed out some $ that way.  So, it didn't particularly worry me to keep them and wait for the next 'alt season' this time around.

Yes, they have increased in $ terms, but I still feel I lost out by not flipping 'em over to BTC when I should have, of course. 

Rationally, they have still made more money than I could have made on anything else outside of crypto. So I know I really cannot complain.  But irrationally - knowing how much more it 'could have been' makes it a strangely annoying place to be in.

I guess it's proof of loss aversion theory; we all fear losing money more than we enjoy making it.

Haikus are lovely
why should we limit ourselves
to Sundays only?

Eddie I agree
wholeheartedly but haikus
Just fit on Sundays

For contemplation
And finely formed poetry
Sundays are perfect

I wish that people
would count haiku syllables
more accurately

To make a haiku
one must write to a rhythm
of five-seven-five

So that’s seventeen
syllables altogether
written in three lines

+1 WO-M (little time out)

Or is it addressing me as well?

Last week you had one or two a little off - but you are totally forgiven.  You may have your own version of a haiku sometimes, but your posts are always upbeat and a joy.

I do love the Sunday haiku tradition, I just penned that one in case anyone needed to know the normal haiku rules.  IIRC, way back, I spotted a V8 post (I wish I was as succinct as he is) that actually was an accidental haiku and I think out of sheer boredom others joined in.  Thus another bonkers thing on the WO became a tradition.

To compose a haiku
when there is no real reason
is really the point

In this erudite
and entertainment filled thread
a light Sunday treat

Well it does look like TheKoziTwo was well placed for a bargain.  He obviously has two of something steel... Respect is due and totally deserved of course.

I was wondering how far it could drop (and yes it did hurt to just watch it slide) but the bottom looks in, I didn't quite catch it, but I did pick some up  in the high .007x range after it bounced convincingly.

Now it's looking pretty healthy with a decent rise and volume strong.  

Of course the great thing with Monero is it may be late to the party sometimes, but when it does turn up, it's a star.  In the last Bitcoin bull run it was rising against BTC as it rose and it acting as a trebuchet, as some may recall.

I have hodled, Monero has been so good to me but it's been a long wait.

Now I am thinking:  

Hit me baby one more time...

Well, the top of this channel didn't last as a support line. Looks like it could even drop to the bottom of the channel now; around 9K or a touch under, before it bounces.

I must have a guess
and offer up a haiku
for mic's guessing game

Hard to see ahead
and know if it's moon or doom
in Bitcoin's wild ride

£12,849 - please. 

Reason?
A rough calculation partly from a 2015 to 2019 overlay, using a ratio to adjust for the growth from Jun 30 to Sept 30 in both cycles, adjusted for when the death cross on the MA's was dated.

In other words: hopeless witchcraft.

Support the game Cheesy

Thanks Mic - have popped over and done it....
