Did you include a fee?

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Still futzing along sideways in the $270 range.

My guess is that it will continue here for the weekend before pushing past $280.

Slow and steady may be boring but it's good for Bitcoin.

Good morning Bitcoinland. Still scrapping around $270 I see.

Looks like the $250s are gone but I think we're still gonna tarry a while longer in the $265-$275 range before we surge past $280 and possibly $290 before sustaining over $270.

In the meantime, it's a lovely little dance.

As un-funny as Aykroyd is, he's still more comical than Jerry Lewis, who for some unfathomable reason the French seem to think is some kind of comedic genius.  

I don't think anyone believes that Greeks were buying, but rather people elsewhere who see the Greeks with their capital frozen and unable to convert it to other forms or move it out if the country. Greece isn't the only country with serious economic woes, just the worst case among "developed" nations.

This was probably the case with Cyprus too. One can't help but wonder how many Greeks were buying bitcoins in early 2013 during the Cypriot crisis. Those who did were the smart ones.

Of course, a lot of the recent buying may have simply been spurred by the media flurry around the association by some of Bitcoin and Grexit.

Some of us are fussier than others (and more inclined to spending our money wisely).

Food? You're begging for food?

You don't want to be smoking what the panhandlers of Toronto call "food".

It'll not only turn you into Slenderman, but Sunkeneyesman and Jonesingman too.

 

C'mon, most of us are rich around here.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

No surprises I see. As expected we're going sideways in the $260s after the brief surge over $270.

Hopefully last week's $250s are in the past, just like the $240s of the week before.

Will we have to wait until next week for the next leg up?

Also predictably, the trollbears and negative Nellies are acting like a $5 dip is a big deal after a $15 rise. Pathetic.

Yawn. Mmmm, coffee.

I'll wait until we blow past $700.

I would have said $666 but that's such a goofy number and when we hit $700, we'll be solidly past it.

$300 would be a nice first step up though. It would get us back to where we finished Bitcoin's worst year.

Then we could look toward $333 as more than double the nadir of January's final capitulation.

Still waiting for the moon train.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

I see we didn't wait until after the weekend for the next leg up.

Hopefully we're done with the $250s and can focus on cracking the $280 barrier.

We might go sideways in the $260s for a while first.

Then again, the buzz created by the Grexerendum might speed things up.

I'm just as happy with a nice slow steady rise, up another $10-$20 every week or two with a sideways period in between.

The market has been behaving itself quite nicely since the start of June. Let's keep it up.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Still going sideways I see.

Off to cottage country for a weekend of gigging and camping. I don't know what internet access will be like, so I may not find out until Sunday night how we're doing but my guess is that the sideways will continue.

Cheers all.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Still going sideways I see.

Do we have to wait until next week for our next leg up?

Good morning Bitcoinland.

I see we had a massive $2 crash while I was sleeping. Ho hum.

Predictably the trolls and beartards are posting their usual crap.

I guess I should have stuck to my original prediction 2 days ago that when we passed $260 we'd bounce back down to the high $250s and go sideways there for a while before continuing the upward trend.

So is this:

Lots of times, especially in the bad old days when last call was at 1:00AM and most bars still didn't pack beers to go in paper bags.

It wasn't beer in those days though, usually rye, but it was cheaper than booze cans.

I don't bother any more though. I live in the neighborhood so we usually just get a few beers to go at 2:45 and go to someone's house for an afterparty where we can smoke, toke, drink and do whatever away from prying eyes and ears.

Only suburbanites and other tourists go to booze cans any more... too much cocaine, too expensive and they're all under control of the bikers and infiltrated by cops. In the old days they were actual booze cans, catering to entertainers and bar employees., and run by members of the community.

On-topic: Price dipped back under $260 again but has since gone back up almost to $261.  

Happy Canada Day once again. Too bad I cant send you a shot of Crown Royal through the blockchain.  C'mon Vitalik, get that together.

Edit: The weirdest cold-tea-style experience I've had was in Little Italy in the early 1980s. The men's Barzula joint across from our gig offered us a "special" coffee after hours despite the fact we were "Inglese" because we were musicians.

I was appalled to see them lace our coffees with what appeared to be olive brine, but the olives must have been wax or plastic because the "brine" turned out to be overproof grappa. Go figure.

Oh, we were briefly over $261 and now we're back under $260.

I do see the resemblance.  


@ BlindMayorBitcorn: perhaps a little sugar-free liquid coffee sweetener. Mmmm.

While posting that last post I missed who wished me a happy Canada Day and then deleted it, but thanks and I'll extend the greeting to Adam and all the rest of the Canucks around here.

Cheers.

Oh, I see we're back over $260 again.

I thought you meant this guy:
