Are we going to 16,000$ before moving to ATH ?

Wait a moment. I will consult my crystal ball and tell you.

I have a great solution for your pointless threads, based just on what you think and nothing else: to put you in my ignore list. You are the second one so far.

Bye.

I want to play poker with worthy opponents. I've tried a lot of venues, I don't know where to get good ones and what people would have with money. Or it's not interesting to play with the poor. Maybe you know where to play?

If you have tried a lot of venues I suppose you've tried Pokerstars. You are not going to find a better site. I don't currently play there and I don't like their policies but I have to acknowledge they are number one. If not, keep trying the major fiat sites. Pacific is quite good for example.

The thing is, crypto sites have to improve a lot to be as good as the major fiat sites.


777coin.com has a poker feature. I also see that many are playing swcpoker.eu.

Check it out.

There are other poker sites but don't have players.

Yeah but 777coin has video poker, not poker where you play vs other opponents right? Is what OP is asking.

You don't lose until you sell.

Posts like this will make the price go up.

Dr. Wodarg and Dr. Yeadon request a stop of all corona vaccination studies and call for co-signing the petition

I've seen this reported in various sites but I haven't seen it in any major news site. So I'm not 100% sure it is true. Dr Yeadon is ex-Pfizer head of respiratory research.

Anyway, what they say is that vaccines could cause infertility in women, they can also cause an exaggerated immune reaction and other problems.

If this is true it is going to be very big.

if we move up and over and into  25-30k this year we will correct in jan feb 2021

So?

Does bitcoin care what you want or prefer?

Yes, apparently he believes in people jinxing the price. Usually the others on the speculation board. I tell you from experience.

It is part of a cosmovision I would say

 Cheesy
6527  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is this a good time to invest? on: December 03, 2020, 05:06:49 PM

For the not too long-term investment, do you mean you will eventually sell right? Then it means, whatever the price, you can make an entry since the price is swinging, and with the exact execution of your strategy, you can take advantage of it and take profits.

But for long-term goals e.g for holding, it's a tough question that only you can answer. You need to decide for yourselves what to do. No advice from anyone can tell you the exact thing you need to do.

I mean sell now


You don't wan to invest, you want to play roulette. You might as well go to a casino, the certainty about the outcome is pretty much the same.

Some people with knowledge can buy and sell bitcoin short-term but they base their decisions in technical analysis, in which I don't believe much by the way because most of them lose money
6528  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Another big step to adoption bitcoin from VISA! on: December 03, 2020, 04:59:05 PM
I saw that in a YouTube video yesterday.

I agree with you. Today all companies will try to "accept" bitcoins primarily to keep up with the times. Think back to Visa's recent negative attitude towards Bitcoin.
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/2018/01/05/visa-locks-bitcoin-payment-cards-crackdown-card-issuer/

But fortunately, as the saying goes, "at least this way to start" gradually all companies are forced to introduce bitcoin into their systems. This is primarily necessary to maintain the current status of leading companies, and not Bitcoin itself, which, more and more, is gaining momentum in popularity, crushing those who so sincerely wanted to ban it earlier.

exactly.
my hope is that what we are seeing these days would be just a phase. a short term one where everyone starts adding bitcoin to their system through all these centralized third parties then slowly move away from them and start accepting bitcoin on their own (which is the correct way of using bitcoin).
that way we use these centralized services until they stop being useful.

Yes, at least it helps normalize bitcoin within society. It would be better if people started using bitcoin privately but if for bitcoin to be massively adopted it will be through small steps like this one. We are slowly moving from bitcoin being a weird word to been a common and everyday one.

I really wish this virus targeted the ignorant.   Just yesterday I talked to a person who has lost 40% of her immediate family to this virus, while people like this try to beat Trump at stupid comments... :/

Well, the British Medical Journal says hospital admissions and deaths are uncommon (remember that the global mortality is below 1%).

Talking about the (un)efectiveness of vaccines, the BMJ says: "Hospital admissions and deaths from covid-19 are simply too uncommon in the population being studied for an effective vaccine to demonstrate statistically significant differences in a trial of 30 000 people. "

Source: Will covid-19 vaccines save lives? Current trials aren’t designed to tell us

So I just think the person you talked to has had bad luck statistically speaking.

Apart from that I think OP is has made up that story.

Thank you good work.

Maybe we will go as high as 25-28 because of this thread.

You are welcome.

But it seems that it will not go to those levels for the time being because of the following thread, which has created a resistance:

TO THE MOON!
6531  Other / Off-topic / Re: More Good News About Covid-19 Vaccine on: December 02, 2020, 05:11:53 PM
There are many vaccine candidate to prevent covid-19 virus. First is the Pfizer vaccine which is 95% effective against the virus and now there is another one, the Moderna vaccine. This vaccine concludes 94 percent effective  and strongly protects against serious illness.

Both Moderna and Pfizer vaccine company plans to submit an application for emergency use authorization to the Food and Drug Administration today.

This is really good news for us and hopefully this will be the way to stop the covid-19 virus right away. Once it has started to spread to people, it can reduce the fear of the people about their health and that the lives of many will gradually return to normal.

https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2020/11/30/940037920/more-good-news-for-modernas-covid-19-vaccine-candidate

The British Medical Journal doesn't think so: Will covid-19 vaccines save lives? Current trials aren’t designed to tell us.

"Peter Hotez, dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, said, “Ideally, you want an antiviral vaccine to do two things . . . first, reduce the likelihood you will get severely ill and go to the hospital, and two, prevent infection and therefore interrupt disease transmission.”7

Yet the current phase III trials are not actually set up to prove either (table 1). None of the trials currently under way are designed to detect a reduction in any serious outcome such as hospital admissions, use of intensive care, or deaths. Nor are the vaccines being studied to determine whether they can interrupt transmission of the virus."

It's worth reading the whole article.
6532  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Adoption: Universities now Accepting Bitcoin for Tuition Payment? on: December 02, 2020, 05:08:26 PM
Although I see the list of those universities as positive, I'm sorry to say that I think the adoption of those kinds of payments in the rest of them is going to be very slow.

I understand that the ones that have accepted these types of payments are private institutions at least in their majority and have very open-minded people among the governing board.

In public universities, the acceptance of this type of payment is not going to happen soon and much less in mass, because they can not make their payments in bitcoin, and accepting that currency is like investing in a high-risk asset, with high volatility especially in the short term.
6533  Other / Meta / Re: Stake your Bitcoin address here on: December 01, 2020, 06:35:33 PM
I was about to sign a message to post it here but it seems that it's not possible to do it with ledger live
Ledger Live has a terribly limited interface. Something as simple as creating a new receiving address isn't even possible. But it can be linked to Electrum. That puts Electrum in read-only mode, and you'll need to sign transactions on the Ledger. Try it if you haven't used it yet, you should be able to sign a message from Electrum. It also gives you back coin control.

Thanks a lot for the info but I'll do something better. I'm going to buy a Trezor. I'll keep the Ledger as a secondary wallet but I'm pissed off with them.
6534  Other / Meta / Re: Stake your Bitcoin address here on: December 01, 2020, 05:24:37 PM
I was about to sign a message to post it here but it seems that it's not possible to do it with ledger live whereas it was possible with the old APP.

Really? Are they so dumb? First they were hacked and since then I keep getting phishing scam emails and now this?
6535  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC technicals are against ATH. Liquidate on: November 30, 2020, 06:09:30 PM
BTC technicals are against $20,000. I don't think holding now is a good idea.
Maybe a good idea is to move the money from BTC to altcoins.

If BTC breaks $21,000 confirming a breakout, media will write about BTC and move retail investors will flow in. Then get in.
I think for now, the best idea is to liquidate BTC. And move to alts.


What's your take and why?

Happy to discuss!

LOL. I'm going to swap my bitcoin for some shitcoins ASAP just because you say technicals are against it.

Not a chance.
6536  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin retirement account on: November 30, 2020, 04:42:20 PM
I simply think there is no point in saving bitcoin for retirement if you don't hold your private keys. You can have a 401k o similar retiring instruments but if you want to have some bitcoin of part of you retirement plan you'd better have them in your private wallet. However, I am sure it will become common in the future years as there are a lot of people who don't care about their private keys and just want an institution to complain to if something goes wrong.
6537  Other / Off-topic / Re: Income from Bitcoin investment on: November 30, 2020, 04:35:28 PM
You can lend BTC on exchanges for margin trading. As you say, it's "safe", AKA not 100%, but not too bad. Anything involving an altcoin or DEFI is much riskier IMHO.

But to be honest to me the only way (aside from signatures campaigns here) is to have a regular fiat paying job, buying some BTC every month, and hodling that, until one day your stash is worth enough to retire on.

As OP is asking about income, I think another two options would be to deposit bitcoin in freebitco.in, which pays a 4% annual fee, but paying the proportional part daily, or invest in the bankrolls of crypto casinos.

But neither option is "safe".

It is much better to hold bitcoin and wait for the return by capital appreciation.
6538  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin hitting ATH right now? on: November 30, 2020, 04:19:04 PM
Yes but it has bounced back a bit. There is a resistance between $19,5-20k as there are many sell orders in that range. Above 20k there aren't nearly as many so I think once we pass that mark we will get easily to 25k or so.
6539  Other / Off-topic / Re: i trust more bankers and banks then bitcoin on: November 29, 2020, 06:16:11 PM
so what we do about this?

and im still in bitcoin forum Cheesy  if something is going on with my money i can call to bank 24/7 and asking whats going on they always pick up the phone Smiley

So, what?

I don't know what you are doing in this forum then.

By asking that question you are showing that you don't understand anything.

6540  Other / Off-topic / Re: Are there any proof of covid are real? on: November 29, 2020, 05:00:46 AM

The easy beginning of the answers to some of your questions, is to ask the real question that the thread title should ask. "Is there any proof that Covid is Covid?" Think about it.

Cool

Well, it's funny because I've seen the same argument about AIDS. As I said, I don't know much about viruses or medicine but I've seen people denying that AIDS is a result of a virus.

there have been thousands upon thousands of scientific procedures and all prove its real.
please stop getting your stupidity from conspiracy sites. - Except for one major thing. franky1 has been unable or unwilling to show us the part of even one scientific procedure that isolates the virus according to accepted standards, where there can be no contamination, and where the isolated virus was injected (as accepted standards require) into a bunch of test subjects, and they got sick from it, and the virus was re-isolated from each of them, and was found to be the same virus. Anybody can talk. Let's see the researchers doing the full process.

My question then is: how come most doctors don't speak out publicly against this deception? Are they all paid by Big Pharma? I find that hard to believe. There are only a few who contradict the official version.
