I've read this yesterday, I was thinking about poor souls that still believe that the price of gold will clearly rise... It's the new silver Yup, maybe it will have one last bull if the macro trends align just right, as there is still a considerable portion of the planet that is too conservative to touch crypto, but long-term bitcoin is going to eat gold's lunch.

Best scrape the old WO threads as well then. Can you provide links? I'll start scraping probably this weekend, after completing my weekly Merit and Trust scraping. You can expect my list early next week. Only found 1 other one, this current thread went back further than I thought. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=85687.20

Who's who on WO?
Here the first 100 WO family members. Would anyone be interested in seeing a full list of all the users who ever posted in this topic, sorted by post count (highest first)? I can scrape 24000 pages if there is a demand for it ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Best scrape the old WO threads as well then.

Had a look into proudhon’s posting history. He’s a butt hurt early adopter who sold everything way, way, way too early. He could have been incredibly wealthy but sold everything for pittance. Evidence - We should definitely listen to proudhon’s price predictions. Jokes on you, I already sold all my bitcoins at the top of the June 2011 bubble because it was obvious even then that this whole thing would totally fall apart once china completely bans bitcoin, as we now know it has from numerous legit sources.
You and I both know that even people who bought above $50 are in trouble, if they don't act soon.
Bitcoin probably won't hit $1000 again because of sources.
(largely snipped) I’m sure there are more quotes but to conclude - What a fucking loser. I read through some of it as well. He makes roach look like nostradamus. I don't understand why people who could be proven so wrong for so many years keep coming back to receive more punishment and ridicule by hardening their already firmly cemented wrongness. You guys shouldn't believe everything you read...

Ok. Two to three month mini-bear market.
#Bringbackfear
Edit: I’m not shorting this but I’m ready for people to have the pants scared off them again
I hate it when I am on the opposite side of a trade compared to you Hairy, you are right too often...

I doubt we'll go down much further for now.
Sold a teensy bit at 13.1k, bought a teensy bit at 12.1k, all good.

This is unsustainable. The price will be under $10k before the end of the year, and stay there until Libra takes over. Bitcoin is done. Short bitcoin.
Merited for making me laugh. I'm borrowing the jbreher rule. 'Make me spew? Get a merit!' wait.. what ?? giving bogus "doom is going to consume us all" type predictions gets you merits? Don't give the kid in the store a treat when they are acting bad. You guys are rewarding bad behavior. You misread. Award is for hilarity. It would seem that the current crop of Wall Observers still needs to be educated on the Proudhon phenomenon. back to the shallow end of the pool noob

Isn't that indicator total bs? I mean, it's futures right? Not money being borrowed, but contracts that always have an equal amount of counterparties, if I am not mistaken.

Like Hairy said, don't short bull markets.
Indeed, I should stop thinking I can predict the short-term movements. Big picture everything is dandy, I am just greedy because I want to increase my coin stash, and at times end up archieving the opposite.... PS: Mic, thanks for letting me know I have a new hat. And obviously thanks to xhomerx for making the hat ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Just came across that pic, hope to gain more knowledge with quick posting it here ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Still not much wiser though :/ And indeed why bitCON? Help a Birthday guy out... damn 5 minutes over time ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Edit: After all this is a house of learned doctors (meme) It is an adapted version of a criticism of the feudal system, in which royals ruled, the clergy, rich nobles and military performed the rulers bidding and benefited, but normal people suffered, like this: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2F2.bp.blogspot.com%2F-zqtXSQhWdWY%2FUxoN1iy0HuI%2FAAAAAAAAViY%2Fz0euPuo3YTM%2Fs620%2Fpyramid-of-capitalist-feudal-system.jpg&t=663&c=CS_pfjrVt5NvGQ) . It is basically saying that blockstream rules the system, that miners, core and exchanges are their stooges, and that normal coiners are suffering as a result. EDIT: the pic I linked to has more of an emphasis on capitalism, but the origins of these type of pics are more based on the medieval feudal system, which showed basically the same pyramid cartoons.

Just checked the price... holy shit !!
Why the hell did I not put up my limit buy orders on beforehand, so mad at myself...
One of the advantages of the laddered trading strategery is that you are always positioned to harvest the volatility. Yeah, I normally use this strategy, should know better, expensive mistake.
