Of course. This is a longer term boon, definitely not a short term one. Bitcoin is going to get fucking hammered just like everything else. When the smoke clears you can bet your bippy that economies will be even weirder, more skewed and more zombified than they already are which is really saying something.

It's at that point that more people come to a realisation as to whether anything is worth anything and look around for something straight edge and cast iron like BTC. It's going to be a nice while yet before it starts to happen though.

Unless you're buying or have urgent financial need and have to sell or spend I'm not really sure why anyone's bothering to pay attention to the price. It's going to be all over the place for the next 2-3 months at a bare minimum with little relation to fundamentals, reality or anything else one can whip up.

It's like worrying about your hairdo after you've been beheaded and the basket that caught your head is on fire.

The Brazilian president tested positive for our fave disease. No doubt Trump massaged his prostate during their visit a few days back. There seem to be an awful lot of politicians getting it but that's par for the course when you mingle with hundreds or thousands of people per day.

I suppose I would technically be a brave holder but there's no braveness involved.

My preference is to be categorised as - Ice Queen.

Anyone who's seen 2014/15 should be the same by now but we're all endlessly diverse.

I have no idea what you're talking about you Dirty Bertie.

And it sounds like it won't be any help in feeding my radiator fetish anyway. I can't fucking STAND it when they pan straight past one.

Many people are facing the real prospect of being unable to earn any money, maybe for the rest of the year. Think how many businesses will grind to a complete halt such as anything tourism related.

I'm mystified how anyone can be mystified by this move. Being able to survive trounces your dreams of future riches any day of the week. I'm sure there were some whale moves in there somewhere like any other time but it's human nature 101 to shit the bed in a moment like this.

I'm a do nothing and feel nothing.

Anyone surprised by the shit of the millennium when the rest of the world is doing the exact same thing is a bit unusual in my opinion. I would've been seriously weirded out if it hadn't done that.

They don't get any money unless it's over a certain length.

Youtube becoming a prime conveyor of information will cause the minds of the human race to melt. I can read something in a few seconds. I'm not going to spend minutes scrolling between coughing, cursors that move like a sedated slug and yards of drivel to find the one sentence I need.

I bought one these



Filled it with nitrous oxide and got one of my personal assistants to tape the seams shut after I climbed inside.

I'm having a superb time though I'm developing tunnel vision and I'm blacking out every minute or two. My assistant is applauding from the outside.

Wow. Most people of that ilk think either 'it's ded' or 'it'll go lower' and then buy 5 minutes before the peak several years later.

Your man sounds like he was born to it.

It's one of many theories that people cherished. I never understood why as it makes no sense at all.

It's not what you think about it that counts, it's what everyone else thinks and today they've at least eliminated that particular meme for a long time to come.

I've been seeing the weak hands comments since my arrival in 2013. I suppose you can regard it as a game of pass the parcel, but a never ending one. There will be an eternal cycle of strong and weak hands and a bunch of psychos pulling strings on both of them in the background. Those are the dead hands.

Yeah. Gimme a call. I'll take you for a walk somewhere picturesque and cheer you up from a sensible distance.

Don't forget to ask the place selling the rope whether they'll accept BTC. Even in one's final moments you can do your bit for 'adoption'.

I've been pretty flabbergasted at the people flabbergasted by today's events. What on Earth did they think would happen? This isn't some bank going down or country making a balls up of itself. It's a global seizure. There's a bit of a kerfuffle in a corner of a market and then there's THIS.

The world is filled with people. Some of those people own Bitcoin. Those people will react in the same way as most other people. I think sometimes Bitcoin fans believe those 'holders' out there are steely buttocked missile men who won't let them down when it really counts. In reality they're quaking in their Y fronts while weeping in their gaming chair just like they are.

If he dies I expect an animatronic Tom to replace him operated by CIA puppeteers. Trump can sick up his own ruined lungs on the Resolute desk live during a TV address and the world will keep on turning. No way will They let Tom meet the same end. If he goes our will will be broken.

I fully expect the sellers to be would be whales who lost their resolve. Many of the sells have the characteristics of people throwing in the towel without regard for the timing or effect of their sells.

Real whales stay put and gorge themselves at the bottom. Then they'll fart on your heart again just as you're popping the champers.

Um, why?

There are 6 or 7 figure sells with no accounting for slippage. That isn't 'manipulation', that's running for it. The most obvious explanation is often the right one. There are lots of 'stick a fork in it' comments elsewhere and dribbling about it being untouchable for a generation.

Let's see what happens in the coming weeks and there'll be sunnier times eventually but right now the idea of it being innoculated from something ravaging every other market is laughable.

Is it not an official bear with the Dow Jones now?

America seemed rather more bubbly than Britain up until THIS but I don't pay a massive amount of attention to stock markets. I guess the next 3-6 weeks will decide the course of economies for quite a long time to come.

It is indeed a 20% drop to make a bear market. I presume to declare a recession you need to analyse a longer period of time before calling it. I would not be too surprised if they decide to just fake the figure even when everyone's pants are clearly on fire.
