Revisit of Bart or $56k?
Looks sideway-ish for now...
It's either the top of a Bart, or the foot of the 6-digit mountain. These can be any length. IOW, roll a dice. Regardless, we know where it's going long-term, and that's UP. Isn't life great?  Yes... I would not mind suggesting that there could be a pausening before clearly and convincingly entering into no man's land... but surely difficult to know, as AlcoHoDL mentioned.. and seems way too early to say that we know much of anything if we are ONLY a mere 17 hours from our $55.8k local top. In other words, the next 24-48 hours seem to be critical tm in terms of maybe getting some kind of clue in the event that the matter does not merely resolve itself in that time period. As a further SOMA assertion, I would also say that any price moves within $53k to $55.8k are not going to be really anything to write home to mom about.. and I would go further down the price range too.. but since we seem to have been within such price range for ONLY a wee bit more than 24 hours, why even think about any kinds of lower numbers, at this point...... not enough time or price movement has passed.. . In the short term, let's see if we continue to have buyers coming in at these price points... Anyone? Anyone? Edit: By the way, upon reflection, I am thinking that within the past day or so, in another thread, I did jump all over a legendary member for being too presumptuous in regards to speculating that any of us might be able to get BTC cheaper at any point "later in the year".... so there are people who have been watching BTC for a while, yet still have decently strong beliefs (presuming that they are not trolls) that we are either going to have a down before up or even a down after an UP within the coming months, and surely anything can happen in bitcoin, but I still believe that it is neither a good way of thinking about bitcoin to be presuming that you are necessarily going to be able to get cheaper BTC prices between now and the end of the year, even though sure such a thing could happen and such a thing is possible, but it is not like one of those high odd considerations to be waiting for down instead of really seriously reflecting upon whether you are adequately prepared for up, in case down does not happen. Yeah... King Daddy is going to do what King Daddy is going to do, no matter what we say or want. In that sense, I guess one could say that the next x hours are critical for him/her, where x can be anything... After several years of HoDLing, going through ups and downs and long bear seasons, I find myself becoming more "mellow" in how I manage my buys and sells and general activity/attitude towards King Daddy. I let him do his thing, while I sit back, relax, zoom out, or don't look at all, and act according to my needs. As far as buying, I'm already kind of OK in terms of quantity of BTC (can this even be said, I wonder...). As far as selling, I don't have any immediate needs that justify selling even small amounts of BTC (still keeping even LFC_Bitcoin's prize corn!). Basically, currently Bitcoin only serves as a psychological reassurance that I can do some wild and crazy stuff if I want to, and I can survive (and enjoy) the rest of my life without wage-slaving myself -- the latter part is the most important. So, there are very positive things that can happen in one's life by merely HoDLing BTC, instead of actually spending it. It's kind of like a country which holds nuclear weapons in order to keep the peace. There was someone's avatar motto here in WO that said this. "If you want peace, be prepared for war", or something like that. You don't need to actually detonate the nuclear bombs (spend your BTC), the mere fact that you possess them is enough to achieve what you want. I'm not worried. I believe that Bitcoin will greatly appreciate in value in the long term -- it's a when, not an if, as The Dude commented earlier. Whatever happens will happen when it happens. I'm not in a hurry. No ranches to build or lakes to buy. I'm satisfied with what I've got, and some things cannot be bought even with BTC, so there's that too. Having said all of the above, I still believe and predict a major non-ant UPpity action this year, possibly touching 6-digit prices. It could happen with decent odds. And even if it doesn't, the odds of it happening soon after will approach 100% in the coming years, as we get closer to the next Halving. tl;dr: Bitcoin is not only about material needs. It can take care of you in more ways than you thought possible when you first bought it years ago. No need to rush it or worry about short-term price noise. Just let it do its thing, and it will reward you greatly. That's the way I see it, anyway. |

On the 4th December 2018 Bob sent me 0.00077868 BTC to buy a drink . It's now worth £32 THANK YOU BOB  On 17th January 2020 LFC_Bitcoin sent me 0.00587 BTC (then $50) as prize money for winning his game. It's now worth $324. Thank you LFC. Please leave me out of this “past-btc related issues” Sorry Dude, was not meant to offend anyone, just to share the happiness and illustrate Bitcoin's success... Apologies if it was taken the wrong way. I'm sure LFC has way more than 0.00587 BTC and I'm sure he's very happy too, that his game prize money has grown so much. Soon, with these "petty" amounts, one will be able to buy quite a lot of stuff. That's 587k sats we're talking about. I will not be spending it any time soon, I will keep it as an indicator of Bitcoin price appreciation, and to have a good story to tell nocoiner (and coiner) friends about Bitcoin's success. |

Hooray for 50K. Feels different this time. Q4 is going to be something special. The only crazy part to me Is that we all know it and it’s still going to happen. That doesn’t usually happen but here we are. See you on the other side of 100K I’m the next 30 days. All we need is more leveraged shorts.  53k resistance…..
Break it & nothing but air until the ATH.
I need some of your guys optimism in my life but that is why I read the WO topic because it is a breath of fresh air because everyone else on this forum is full of negativity. I bought some more Bitcoin yesterday and it would be awesome if your prediction becomes true. I am some one who struggles with my emotion in investing and when things get tough I struggle about 2 years ago I promised that I would invest every month in Bitcoin even if the price is not where I want it. It would be nice to be rewarded I would pay off my house if this became true and I would keep the rest in Bitcoin. I hope you accomplish your goals and keep buying BTC …. It’s just not if it’s when …. Keep stacking The highlighted text is the only thing anyone needs to know about Bitcoin's success. Few understand this. Watching charts and doing TA is purely for the lulz (S2F charts are the sexiest IMHO). |

Sunday it is not,
But I felt I should say this:
"Do not feed the trolls!"

When name calling stopped,
And peace was restored in WO,
Corn started pumping!
So, try to post more...
...guitars, Neo memes and shit.
Corn seems to like it!

Come on boys, what's up with all the crap? You're giving the finger to each other without taking the time to even breathe. Get a room. Better yet, don't look at the finger. Look at the moon  That can be a poem: You're giving the finger,
Get a room.
Don't look at the finger,
Look at the moon! |

Morning WOers. Cheesy post: Listening to Scorpions and feeling euphoric (I don't know exactly why). Great songs. I feel that something important was lost in the passage of time from their era to ours. All those hi-tech gear we now have, and yet current songs somehow lack that something... Or maybe it's just me being a Gen X old man. https://youtu.be/EFCZv2YQHcg |

[...] Greedy much?
ummmm lemme think.... errr.. YEAH!!!!! is this a trick question? am i in the wrong thread through some black magic sorcery? You greedy little devil you...  Sure I'd like the price to reach and exceed $100k this year (which quite possibly will happen -- still 3 months to go), but even if it stays in the $40k range throughout 2021 I'm OK with that. You can call me a bear, but I think $40k is an amazing achievement, even more amazing if you consider what's happening in China. 5 years ago, $40k was the stuff of dreams, and yet here we are, posting "Come on, Bitcoin, do something!" memes. Yeah, it seems we are greedy... How can we not be? This is Bitcoin! |

Hi guys! I just want to share that both I and my father are recovering well from a series of accidents/illnesses - not covid related, but still life-threatening. I hope the worst is behind us, although my father will need several more months for a full recovery. It is still hard for me to collect my thoughts and share all events here, but may be I will do it one day.
All the very best to you and your father. Health is the most important thing one can have, and we usually take it for granted...until we lose it. Take care of your dad as best you can, wishing you both a speedy recovery. We want you strong and healthy for the $1M party. Hurry up -- not much time... |

OK, so corn price is not doing what we want. It's not $100k, it's not $80k, hell, it's not even $60k... Bitcoin ded?
Current price: $43k.
Price exactly one year ago: just over $10k.
That's a 4x price increase in one (1) year. 4x. Let me say that again: 4x!
Greedy much? WTF? We should be fucking ecstatic! Bitcoin is doing what Bitcoin has been doing since 2009: steadily appreciating in value.
Guys ('n' gal), this is fine. No need to panic. Just HoDL and wait it out. We've been doing this for so many years, what's a year or two more? And, as OOM rightly says, always remember Mindrust and never do what he did.
Right sequence (IMHO): Buy ---> HoDL (and accumulate/BTFD/DCA) ---> Rich level (whatever that means for each of us) ---> Sell to use, not to keep in the bank ---> Always have skin in the game.
And... enough with the name calling, you fucks!

In any case, there's no need for name calling, especially between WO regulars. IMHO.
oh? We will have to work harder to have fun in other ways, then.  [...] What happened to Picard memes, Carolinas, haikus that rhyme and witty discourses? Do we really have to stoop to the level of name calling to have fun in these here parts? Don't you know nuttin'? |

Sad day…. Lost one of my very best friends today, a dog and it’s unconditional love.
A day where I really learn what pain is.
Sorry for your loss dude...  I'm not into dogs or pets in general (too busy to properly take care of them, so they'd suffer if I had any), but still I can relate to your pain, as I have friends and relatives who have dogs and I greatly enjoy them whenever I visit. Often pets (especially dogs) can be more loyal than humans. At least pets are true. WYSIWYG. Which is something that can't be said for many (most?) humans, sadly. |

Ignore Lists are like mute buttons. I prefer to see everything and use my scroll wheel.
I get this point in theory. In practice, time is opportunity cost. I want to maximize my funtime here, and part of that involves curating my experience, much like I do with muting/blocking accounts on Twitter (where I fucked off to, during my absence here) There are some people I will never agree with, and don't care to read their opinions/content, because it literally is a waste of my time, and a net-negative in my life, so I prefer to curate my experience to optimize time. Yeah, I see your point too. Personally, I like to see everything and scroll-wheel the ones I'm not interested in reading. I don't think there's too much clutter in WO anyway. It's amazing how this thread has achieved a kind of equilibrium, not much trollery/spam. I think most posters have something interesting to say, even when I don't agree with it. I may still read it, because it may help me see things from a different perspective. You can peek on ignored users' posts by reading them as quotes by other users. This way you can, perhaps, reassess and unignore certain users. In any case, there's no need for name calling, especially between WO regulars. IMHO. |

One can…. With a perfect scroll finger I think we're saying the same thing. Read the meme again. My Ignore List is empty, and always will be. I hate Ignore Lists. They're like selective blindfolds, or tinted glasses. You don't see the whole picture, ugly as it may sometimes be. After all, everyone deserves a second chance, sometimes we act on emotion and may say the wrong thing, this doesn't make us unworthy of expressing an opinion, or unable to learn from our mistakes and revise our stance on things. Ignore Lists are like mute buttons. I prefer to see everything and use my scroll wheel. |
