There is no pump.

The bid gets pulled up and I hear salmon swim upstream to die.

The end.

It is a ploy to capture liquidation.

I have a question for those holding Bitcoin.

Is your Bitcoin really worth "x" amount of $$$?

What happens if lets say 5 big Bitcoin holders were to flee the market today?

Are there enough buyers to inflate the price back up?

What if a run were to occur on Bitcoin?

Do you think that all investors would get the same amount of money for their coin?

With global currencies sliding in value consider this when building your exit strategy.

As global currencies weaken the likelihood of liquidating your position for "fair market value" deteriorates.

Anyone ever discuss this in here?

The FED and the IRS

Virtually unknown to the general public is the fact that the US Federal Reserve is a privately owned company, siting on its very own patch of land, immune to the US laws.


 
This privately owned company (controlled by the Rothschilds, Rockefellers and Morgans) prints the money FOR the US Government, which pays them interest for the "favor." This means that if we would reset the nation's debt today and would begin reprinting money, we would be in debt to the FED from the very first dollar loaned to our Government.

Also, most people living in the USA have no clue that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is a foreign agency.

To be more accurate, the IRS is a foreign private corporation of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and is the private “army” of the Federal Reserve (Fed).

Thoughts?

Just sit back and relax fellas.

Bitcoin just snapped into awesome mode.

Nothing can stop it now.

Watch all other currencies sink and die a miserable death while Bitcoin soars to all time highs in the near future.

Bitcoin = 1
The rest = 0

[My personal expectation is that bitcoin will at least gain another 100 percent]

The miners have spoken:

Bitcoin’s Rally Crushed Every Other Currency in 2016. Here’s Why
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-12-16/bitcoin-s-rally-crushed-every-other-currency-in-2016-here-s-why

“My personal expectation is that bitcoin will at least gain another 100 percent,” said Krohn, chief financial officer of Hong Kong-based Genesis Mining, which deploys server farms to mine the currency.

“Bitcoin is coming into its own,” says Tim Draper, a venture capitalist who’s bought thousands of bitcoins over the years. “There are starting to be consumer uses for bitcoin, and if people have any concerns about their own fiat currency -- the rupee, for example -- they flee to bitcoin as an alternate currency.”

Circle is out of the Bitcoin game?

 

https://www.wired.com/2016/12/future-bitcoin-not-digital-currency/

Circle will no longer allow customers to buy and sell bitcoin.

One of Bitcoin's biggest supporters, Clif High, says Bitcoin is going to be the future of the financial world.

Have you guys ever heard of him?

He makes some very interesting points about Bitcoin on his YouTube channel.

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqXZf0F4GLSX1QXBUgPXhqg

What do you guys think?

Can you stop pricing yourself in fiat?

I would say it is with almost 100% certainty that you cannot.

I'm wondering just how long you will use the fiat banking system as your crutch.

Would you look at that.

BTC SOARS on IRS news and the alt coin world gets crushed.

Who would have thunk it?

A short sellers dream.

The question is now how low will their BTC/ALTCOIN ratio go as the short sellers have a field day?

With the list of people running nodes so transparent is it possible that in a time of unrest that you could actually become a target?

https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin/nodes-active/

Surely not everyone is using a VM or proxy right?

https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin/nodes-active/united-states/

And could the Government use its overreaching powers to get IP addresses and turn them into actual addresses?

I stumbled upon this website that helps you use Bitcoins to get pizza.

Is it legit?

http://didthesystemcollapse.com

Come on now your pro traders.

Put that BTC trader training to work!

Look at all that candy!

Will the IRS hijack the Bitcoin moon rocket?

Seems so.

They are a very powerful and respectable agency.

What say you?

And you didn't even think twice about it did you?

I hope that Knight you have there is capable of slaying dragons.

After all it's just you against all of them....

This may or may not be good for Bitcoin.

With the attempts to become the new financial arm of the world there may be a problem on the doorstep.

The United States Dollar is surging in value.

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-11-16/us-dollar-index-spikes-13-year-highs

With offshore yuan collapsing near 6.90 - record lows - the USD Index has surged this morning, breaking above Dec 2015's 100.51 level to trade at its highest since April 2003...

USD Index is up 8 days straight - the biggest surge since May 2015

More worrisome is what does a weak Yuan look like for Bitcoin?

If the Yuan is worth less the buying power for the Chinese to get into BItcoin might be effected.

As Bitcoin emerged from out of nowhere it was quickly given the title of "decentralized king".

A tool against the centralized world of banking to give the power back to the many to correct the errors of the few.

Under the guise of Libertarianism, Bitcoin's aim is to become the monetary base of a new technologically enslaved society.

A digital gold of some sorts that will pave the way for a centralized free world.

Eight years later it unfortunately seems to have taken a wrong turn somewhere.

The Bitcoin ecosystem itself resembles that of Wall St. from fake news all the way down to the constant emergence of penny stocks known as Alt Coins.

Each one promising a technological advantage over BItcoin when in reality "investors" already know that it is merely a scam to inflate the egos and pocketbooks of Bitcoin exchange owners.

Sniff around in this forum and Bitcoin news outlets and you won't have a hard time finding articles where BItcoin advocates jump for joy over the potential backing of a large corporation or huge financial institution.

Read enough of these and you may start to think that Bitcoin itself is merely and arm of the banking/corporate elite.

Perhaps a trial balloon of some sort that was crafted long ago and spun into motion with the hopes of special interests taking over the monetary system for good.

If it failed they could quickly step away and blame all the gullible investors for it's downfall.

If it succeeded they could once and for all bypass all the laws and rule of government and gain full control over their destiny.

Regardless of the outcome it is clear that Bitcoin has turned into something that isn't quite what it promised to be.

With all this in mind I have started to come to the realization that Bitcoin failing may be the Black Swan event that triggers the downfall of modern banking.

Not because of it's disruptive technology but because if it's failure to latch into the minds of the people.

If Bitcoin is in fact an arm of the most wealthy institutions in the world then the failure of it would be quite a blow to the future of such institutions.

Is there anything on the horizon if Bitcoin fails?

Some of you may want to consider the possibility.

Especially with the way things are shaping up politically in the world.

From the European Union cracking up all the way to the potential equities fallout generated by the upcoming U.S. election.

It is clear that the population of the world is not going to take kindly to any banking system that emerges that is not in their interest.

Bitcoin's quick jump to what appears to be quasi centralized does not sound good for the future of Bitcoin.

With the reported Chinese monopoly on mining and large exchanges controlling the worth of Bitcoin I can't see how this is going to play out in favor of the digital currency.

Not short term at least.
















 

For those of you who think that Bitcoin is unhackable I urge you to think again.

I am not not talking about traditional hacking as in a hack against the core software.

I am talking about perception.

HACK:
http://www.dictionary.com/browse/hacked?s=t

to damage or injure by crude, harsh, or insensitive treatment; mutilate; mangle:

Many people overlook this unprotected area of Bitcoin and may not have contingencies planned out accordingly.

These are just a few examples of how Bitcoin's image gets hacked.

Remember that Bitcoin's inherent disruptive nature (technology disruptor) adds to the already uncertain global financial stage.

With this in mind I would like to point out an alternative for you to consider when Bitcoin's image is under attack.

Gold and silver has been around for a long long time and many of you are already aware of its existence in bullion form.

However, some overlook the fact that gold and silver provide the physical backbone of Bitcoin's existence.

That equipment you use to mine Bitcoin contains gold and silver.

That PC, tablet, or smart phone you are using to make transactions with or make a trade contain gold and silver.

In the form of gold plated contacts down to that Rohs compliant solder which contains one of the best conductors in the world (silver) precious metals are there to help make Bitcoin tick.

Without the precious metals and a host of many other raw materials Bitcoin obviously would be nonexistent.

Unlike the other raw materials, precious metals has been monetized for thousands of years.

They have always been considered a safe haven in times of uncertainty.


Here are just a few of the perks of expanding your portfolio into precious metals:

-Gold and silver has been backed by governments around the world since the 1980's. The United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, China, Great Britain, and Austria are all countries that have put into law that they must provide it's citizens with gold and silver bullion as needed by demand.

-Precious metals can be used in Individual Retirement Accounts (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_IRA)

-You can protect your hard earned Bitcoin profits from exchange related hacks that cause the Bitcoin price to plummet unexpectedly.


If you are interested in exchanging Bitcoin for precious metals in attempt to solidify your investment portfolio do a google search and you will be sure to find some reputable dealers that offer up such a service.

Only a fool puts his/her eggs in one basket.

What do you say?

It seems Clinton being all in on Goldman Sachs will be for Bitcoin.

Trump on the other hand seems to have something else in mind.

Do you agree with Poloniex's usury supported platform?

Does it harm or help the Bitcoin ecosystem?

Place your comments below.

Because you will let them.

You will let them rally you up and let them take your money.

You will let them whip you into a fevered frenzy and then you will let them hack you.

You will let them make you think you actually have control over coins.

You will let them pit you against one another in the oldest divide and conquer strategy known to man.

You will give them all your credentials so that they can have authority over your new crypto currency bank accounts.

You will let them create fake media to tell you why things happen.

You will let them because you let the before and they will do it again.

They are masters at fooling you and you are letting them.

They will not give you a piece of the pie.

They will give you scraps on the floor.

Man up boys and girls cause the germ sweeper is coming to town.

The fakes at the so called top of the Bitcoin ecosystem are about to squirm.
