Why's Bitcoin just pumped up to $6500? Was it because someone bought some coins, or was it a more profound reason?

Yes, but we are supposed to believe that any big news organization is "fake" news and are supposed to believe all alternate news sources without question. After all, "the system" is totally corrupt, and only alternate sources speak the truth. Is the flat earth thread an alternate source that speaks the truth?

Bitcoin fundamentals are still in the wind.
Undecided futures have provided deranged thinking. Up is down and down is up.
What does that mean? Are we going to go up or down? Swings like you never seen before , buckle up Those swings you mentioned seem to be starting.

There's no easy solution and personal security in cryptolandia (we talking about bitcoin, right?) remains an evolving target.
Even printers are now a vector to attack your computer through. HP is releasing firmware patches for vulnerabilities in its printers. https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/08/03/hp_printer_malware/

RIP Bitcorn Maybe we're due a double bottom with a good hard pump straight afterwards. Dunno. This is frustrating though, feels like 2014 again. In 2014 we had a double top at $600+ in August and everyone was optimistic. The recent $8500 top has no matching April/May top, and everyone's pessimistic. That sounds bullish to me. Bitcoin usually does the opposite to the prevailing sentiment. Or maybe I'm wrong and we can play bagholder bingo instead.

I really wish Bitcorn would perk up. I'm starting to feel a bit morose myself Seeing it drop below $6,900 fills me with dread and despair. * BobLawblaw holds onto The Mayor for comfort and support - a look of horror begins to form Try not giving a fuck.

For certain purposes it's necessary to determine the logical cross-bearings of the concepts which we take for granted. But honestly, is there a single not obvious thing in here. You really thought I needed a reintroduction to basic financial literacy by way of cringe-y homespun wisdoms?
Now I'm even more morose!
Geeze. Sorry about that. I didn't mean to bum you out. I'll admit the writing style is a little "cringe-y and homespun" but it left me feeling happy after reading it. Maybe xhomerx10's suggestion will work better. Maybe not, the Huffington Post review warns it contains no "soft puffy cloud prancing unicorns offering hugs on colorful rainbows". https://www.huffingtonpost.com/tree-franklyn/the-subtle-art-of-not-giv_b_12012008.html?guccounter=1There are no soft puffy cloud prancing unicorns offering hugs on colorful rainbows, only F-bomb explosions and brutal smack-you-in-the-face reality slaps. What good's that to bitcoiners? We want unicorns.

Private jets, helicopters... ARE YOU NOT INTO TRAINS?
Literally too pedestrian. How are we going to keep the riff-raff out if we throw the party somewhere accessible via train ?!?? 5 - 10 bitcoin ownership MINIMUM entry? A high entrance fee like that will keep the riff-raff out. I'll be the banker.

I took a train from San Fransisco to salt Lake city once, Never again! Seriously bumpy for 15+ hours and the damn thing didn't have a BAR car!!!!
I only did it to see how it compared and I would take a bus over that ride anyday, and buses suck.
But I think American rail systems are lagging and that was in the 90's so maybe things have changed? I'm never going to try again to find out though.+
Was it slightly overcrowded like this?

$20k just seems like too much in the middle.. so to me, just does not seem to be like a sufficiently eggregious "blow off top."
The projected blow-off top of 30-50K was 'terminated" with the use of futures. Without futures deployment mid December, we would probably 'heated' up to that 30-50K number within a week or two. $30-50K still seems too much in the middle. $100k seems like a nice round number for an Autumn blow off top.

Some different/modified software would be needed. The existing threads structure is not at all suitable. Neither are wiki pages, since they're too easily messed-with. Maybe some suitable online-course software already exists. It'd be cool if the courses were internally gamified a bit, maybe with "achievements" and stuff. And it could be integrated with the main forum, eg. giving you badges on your profile if you completed a course.
...
Thoughts?
Some open source GPL freeware called moodle might be suitable for hosting bitcointalk courses. A lot of Universities use it to deliver courses. This is Cambridge University's opinion of it. https://www.student-systems.admin.cam.ac.uk/moodleMoodle is a popular, flexible Virtual Learning Environment that is designed to support face-to-face teaching with a wide range of versatile online tools, as well as providing a place to upload resources for courses. It is very popular around the world as a tool for creating online dynamic teaching sites and supporting classroom training.
Developed by pedagogical experts, Moodle is a mature system with a strong and enthusiastic international community of users and developers.
Many other students and academics around the University are already familiar with the system having used it in previous institutions. It is easy and intuitive to use, both for delivering courses and for learning. It's available from here. https://moodle.org/It's not just for face to face teaching, it has a whole range of tools for hosting online distance learning courses, not just forums and wikis. This page details its features, and points out that "classes can be instructor-led, self-paced, blended or entirely online". https://docs.moodle.org/35/en/FeaturesThe only downside to it is some of its modules require javascript.

Pretty much. I've sold a bit to cover business expenses, shipping, and of course my new flamethrower (every bitcoin company needs a flamethrower and this is fucking amazing!). Also sold to pick up a Porsche, but that's about it.
And sold a few at 1200 to trade for gold, worst idea ever but hey them's the breaks. So you sell it when you need to and don't go bananas about it.
Meantime I'm off to Vegas and to test drive some Lambos. Anyone else out there this coming week?
I doubt that peeps in the mood, currently, to talk about lambos. True, however I did buy the Porsche (an older one, so not that much B) at 2k a bitcoin, so there is that. Felt a bit dumb with it hit 19k, would still like it a bit more than 7. At least you held out for 2k, julian071 sold a third of his stash at 1000 euro to buy a Ducati. OK, I'm out. Sold everything @ 6120 euro. Only have some Dash and Byteball left. Gonna watch this whole Segwit2X-thing from the sidelines, I'll buy back cheaper or more expensive depending on the outcome.
Hope this selling everything pans out as well as the last time I did.
Last time you sold was at 600 euro to buy a Ducati. You should be proud now riding the most expensive Ducati ever? Nah that was at about 1000 euro and it was about a third of my stash. Never regretted that decision =D

Shitcoins are in the toilet. How do we feel about this then?

This whole day has been totally unnecessary.
Whales jerking each other off on margin, while we coil upwards. Asshole, sexually-frustrated whales, I tell ya hwat... That's the third time they pulled that trick in seven days.
