And still the "dump BTC for ETH or XRP" pump trade continues.  Gosh do they want people in anything *but* Bitcoin so badly... I wonder why? Smells like 2017 all over again...  Pity for the n00bs and more pity for those who already been in the situation and made gaines, though those people before (also some of my friends) "made gaines" but also choked themselves in the altcoin-koolaid and never took the BTC profits always thinking it will go higher it will sustain etc... So the profit they should have taken turned around in what altcoins true meaning is designed for "Not for making BTC, but its to take away peoples BTC" Few understand this. But also friends of me right now... have rallied MAXIMUM profits with like ADA for example, it rallies so good that they now think its a good coin while its a shitcoin which is becoming more and more a bigger shitcoin over time and just rallies on the hype etc ... Some have to burn themselves more as one time I guess ... The sign of the times is that people get excited by the new shiny things..in 2017 it was eth and xerp, now a-coin, d-coin, u-coin, l-coin. For some, the gains are spectacular (currently). However, we know how it all ends-in a vast under-performance vs btc when the bear market ensues. All in all, they are oscillators (have been so far). A-coin that you mentioned was the biggest oscillator of them all-lost 98-99% in 2018-2019. IMHO, it will lose 90% at some point again, the question is-from where? I never sell btc for any alt, but dabble using fiat. Not buying now. The difficult art to master is when to sell. It's easier with bitcoin-I never sell any more, just buy+accumulate otherwise. Worst I have been hearing lately was when some friends still holding XRP, sold there shitcoin when the lawsuit was there, I said to surely sell, lot of them did .... Later on they told me why did we sell we said it was gonna pump etc LoL, they still like the XRP performance while its still half in FIAT terms from ATH and I don't know how ad against BTC, ofcourse they only watch against USD but really LoL.... They really think its performing good and they just wanna believe its a good coin cause its cheap in FIAT terms, only around a buck ... pfff n00bs, n00bs everywhere See? That's why i always use $SHIT-$BTC charts to evaluate how a shitcoin is performing. EDIT Spoiler: All of them suck in the long term -> no importance for investment. |

Good day  So i see BTC at $55k, out of shallow waters, where the bears satisfy their thirst. I'd like to see the price a lil higher today, above $55.5k, just to make sure we left the dump behind. Expecting fights at well known levels like $58, $60k and $62k, so $70k by may (which rhymes beautifully) may become very real. #hodltight |

So, it seems we are still in that "downward channel" (for those that paint that kind of pictures) starting after the Apr. 17th dump. Fast order fluctuation on stamp, imho the market forces' fight on staying in / breaking out of said channel is full on atm. #hodl EDIT: Mind the upcoming CME futures expiry date(s), traders better be prepared for an intermediate drop  . Hodlers? Not affected, as always EDIT2: https://www.cmegroup.com/trading/equity-index/us-index/bitcoin_product_calendar_futures.htmlSeems to early for this kind of dip, though. Looks like there is some valid support $53k-$53.3k Quite interesting... |

On another note...
Buy a little piece of BTC on coinbase..
“Welcome to the world of crypto!” It says..
Bitch.. I have BTC transactions on this CB account from 2014!!
Welcome to the world of crypto... Mmkay..
Yeah, I’ve had a coinbase account longer than I’ve had a bitcointalk account..
I’m migrating my play coins to CB pro.. Haven’t used it since it was GDAX around 2017 iirc..
Both still have all my trade/TX histories..
 C'mon, tame your lil ego! This shit from coinbase is totally laughable, so do yourself a favor and laugh about it. |

 The World will never find such a legend. MacAfee claimed he did, and he called him. The transcript sounded pretty sane to me, but what do i know?
EDIT: I see the bulls are back in town. Hooray to the bulls! (I remember calling it, seems i'm improving) or just lucky fuckers coincidence?New prediction: Market dominance on the verge of starting to flip over from Alts to Bitcoin soon-ish. (No financial advice) |

word. This time it was easy, even for a noob like me You are deemed as no longer a noob... hahahahaha.. you humble bumble (aka fuck). To be (more) clear: A noob when it comes to TA, i still am. (Yes, humble like Yoda-style)Mostly, at least. |

So, who sold at the bottom girls? Hint: totally retarded, brain-dead, veggie IQ beartards! Dude, what about veggie bulltards with memory loss, then? Hint: I hodl Sold a little portion above $50k, which was planned to be sold around $40, while a bit of it got sold in the $60k area already. My carpenters only want fiat, that's why. |

LOL. 47.5K was broken in 10seconds so.. New local bottom is 46.9K *cough* $48.7k and rising. Not the point. We printed a new local bottom, below 47.5K. Indeed, i wasn't precise, had my orderbook grouping at $250, but we dipped into $47k-ish and instantly went up to $47.250. But the next move up after that was about clear, SOMA. Hope it will keep that momentum. |

Please BTC if you have no fuel.. go directly to the target 40-43K. Then we can talk properly for reversal and next up leg step re-testing stronger support at about $47.5k Might as well go straight up from there. If not now, then probably like next time. Hmmm the odds are really high now to go more down.. But to be honest i prefer like this, in a strong and fast down movement, than staying like we did fot 2 months sideways, to go down then. Hmm, no. of shorts increased, while no. of longs were remaining stable and the price didn't go down (or up). A sign of hope, but anyway, the market will show us what's really going down. |

To those who thinks that $1mil is a lot: it sounds like lot, but...
This is the crux of my issue. As someone sitting on a pile of coin, and retired, why the fuck would I have any incentive to sell corn under those absolutely retarded proposed tax rates? TBH, and I don't want to sound like a total dick-bag or anything, but every time I sell, $1M is the bare minimum I dump at any time, and cruise on it until I need more. I'm fucking stupid that way. Sue me. I hope you can appreciate why this proposed increase twists my panties up a little bit. I mean, if this means I just need to sell <$1M USD per year, then so be it, but it's just ridiculous, in that it promotes hodling by us hardcore folk. Having said that, I'm sure the time will come in the next 5 years, where I decide to buy up the parcel of 100 acres next to us, and erect a proper Citadel, complete with a goddamn lava-filled moat, fed via drilling into the recesses of our mantle, in a rather impressive engineering feat for Bumfuck, TX. Hopefully Biden is out of office by then, and whatever retarded tax "reforms" he may ram-jam through get repealed. This tax maneuver is going to be discussed. Unfortunately, left wing politics are really after richie rich's gains, while the generated taxes are just a tip of the tip of an iceberg of "projected justice". It's populism, they kinda try to signal "hey poor people, hey middle class, hey workers! we gonna give them richies what they deserve, so it makes you feel you're kinda important to us.", or if you put it that way: Your enemy is our enemy.
This is just cheap, and also distracting from the real problems of economy that constantly makes the poor get even more poor. Populism at it's best. This time it's not the Trump way, but the other way round  Same old shit. |

How long does a transaction stay in the mempool?
I payed way to little and now I'm not getting any confirmations.
Not a good time for low fee confirmations transactions. Consider using one of these? https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/jpa4v1/best_bitcoin_transaction_accelerator/
Feels good to unfollow WhaleCalls on twitter, it totally cluttered the wall/timeline lately. EDITed because of half-sleep Ouch! I know we’re up in general but this dip really makes the eyes water. Even if Bob is cheering buying at $49k... I know he’s crying at the bottom line.
I guess you're wrong  |

Oooh weee. Just got filled at $49,250, AND IT FEELS SOO GOOD!!!
EDIT: $49,000 filled... OH BABY!!!
Don't forget the wipes |

Uhh yeah blood and panic everywhere. Missed this feeling. Fantastic time to buy moar. Hoping for $43k. Summer will be sideways that was for sure.
So here we have our 2013 revival? aka. "bloody summer of '21" EDIT: Sold off enough to cover the remaining work and material of the house expansion yesterday AND buy a little of this dip this morning. About a third of the amount bought (in satoshis) between 12/2020 and 02/2021 can go to cold storage. I was thinking about selling earlier, but i obviously was a bit too greedy in terms of keeping as much of BTC as possible. On the positive side: No more fuzz about the chart and market manipulator dumps until Q4/21 for me. |

Who expected the price not to go down after i bought?
I'm just a little annoyed that i didn't buy later.
In my mind, the following scene goes on and on:
Joe: "Fuck! Saylor, Musk, even my dickhead son bought a ton of bitcoin at prices lower than $20k. Now i have to fucking fomo-buy in at almost $60k, or what?!"
Janet: *raises hand*
Joe B. and Yellin' Janet? lol Yep EDIT: A quick green vape and off to bed. Bitcoin, surprise me in the morning, will ya? |

That's not a scandal, it's a simple confirmation of the 1st law of cryptocurrencies
NOT YOUR KEYS, NOT YOUR COINS.

1. Noticed a bonus-binance.com scam YouTube stream that was recommended to me. I flagged it / reported it. If you want to help, flag this imbecile: https://www.youtube.com/user/MultiTheTempestCrazy youtube even allows you to simply call your account after a crypto exchange name whilst they are quick to delete provocative right wing views. Site promises to send you more BNB back than you send them. Sure. It's the same with Facebook. Very poor at preventing money scams, quick to delete anything Trump related. The social media giants should get their act together. They are a source of scams, fraudsters and hurtful things and try to deflect to others. Pathetic. 2. Is the Doge dead? Every dog has a day but now its days are over. "Altcoin season" may be a thing for the next few months, while "Dogecoin season" seems to be over... While attempting NOT to get distracted into too many shitcoin details, how can anyone really know about where one shitcoin or another might be going without some kind of real definitive moves/happenings? Sure, there does seem to be some pumpening of shitcoins momentum going on, but how can we have any kind of confidence in respect to continuations of such? I have not really seen anything definitive - but hey, I am not really studying (following) the shitcoin space in any detail besides attempting to maintain some superficial levels of awareness regarding some of that - and surely on the margins, there sometimes could be some affects that shitcoins have on short-term moves of dee king daddy... not saying that the tail wags the dog.. but still seems risky to completely ignore some of the behaviors of snot-nosed 14-year olds - and perhaps a few adults, too. SOMA, sorry. Well, not quite 100% SOMA, but some reasonings i can't explain too well without completely losing focus. I tried, four or five times, but i was anything but satisfied with the results. So i'm left to hope that the SOMA explanation (which in fact really isn't one) is sufficient as an answer (i know it isn't). It's kind of a self fulfilling prophecy of the shitcoin space/communities. Some market forces will help to make them true, while prolly being the first to dump on fomo retail buyers and bagholders later. Any price predictions?
And for anyone this seems boring, mby some movie suggestions?
Currently i am into "Chuck" Season 1+2. Pretty nerdy, but funny. As for movies, i'd recommend "Glass", if you haven't seen it. |
