Bitcoin just jumped to 8,5k USD, with a new high compared to previous uprise, will this be the turn above 10k USD, seems to be easy for BTC this time

I know many will regret not buying BTC or ETH at the initial stage when market was in (bearish) trend. Today market is back and I am glad to take part and also get to understand BTC and other coin way better

2017 was a very tough year for me. All efforts that i ever made to make money proofed abortive, then my friend told me about gambling and how he has been making money from it. I didn't buy into this idea because i have had a very bad impression about this game even though i never tried. Am sure you all know that gambling has a bad reputation lol . At a point i had no  other choice than to give it a trial on a sport betting site. That day i made double of my money and i promised myself never to stop gambling That was how my journey on gambling started. Can you share your story briefly and clearly   LETS GO GUYS

Sales are everywhere. Sale on shoes, bags, shirts, gadgets and everything. Malls and shops use this technique to attract buyers, but you know what?  Do you think you've been discounted a higher price than ordinary? No. Instead of saving 20%, you spend 80% on things you dont really need. This is not economical and most of us are easily lured to it. This is what i hate about people. When there's useless trending items on sale, they buy immediately even on credit cards but if bitcoin drops, they talk negative about it. Normal mindset wants to get temporary attention. Not permanent comfort.

So many people have experienced the last all time high of a Bitcoin price high above $18 000 in 2017 and they invested loads of money into a dream of a better future, if the price goes back to $18 000 or much higher than that.  

Now, I am not saying that there is something wrong with having those dreams of making massive profits and funding future projects, because it is still a possibility.

I think the focus should rather be for us to take baby steps to that goal and the way for us to do that is to take small profits when the opportunity presents it self. The concept of buying low and selling high is as old as the mountains, but it is just as affective if you do it more frequently. The Bitcoin price has recovered from the all time low with more than 20% and many people are waiting for it to bounce back to 60% or 80% before they start taking profits again.

If you were one of the unlucky people who bought in at the all time high, you obviously have to wait for the price to recover to your entry price to break even or to make a profit when it pass that price, but there are enough volatility now to get in at a new low price and then taking small profits based on the smaller recovery increments.

If you re-invested at say $5000 and you sold lately at $8000, you could have reduced your precentage loss for the investments that you have done at a buy in price of $18 000. <If you do not want to wait for the $18 000+ price to come around again>

A buddy of mine has done this and he wiped out his potential loss within a few months, by simply buying in low again and selling at more frequent intervals.

Ps. Also remember to spend at least 20% of all the coins you buy, to feed the merchant network and use case for Bitcoin, or it will die as a currency.

June is next month, now BTC is still in the comfort zone like your words. I think there is an increase again in July not in June cause this comfort zone IMO is still vulnerable to correction, but my opinion maybe wrong and hope wrong cause I also want to see a better increase from BTC.

worth mentioning is success becoming rich by bitcoin. is it appropriate to call success if all of that is obtained from a fraud. What do you think  maybe a successful villain is the appropriate name 😅😅😅

hi guys
if BTC hit 1 million $ in the future what will happen
do u think we will see more hack news
More violence and criminalization of bitcoin holders by governments
Any events we will see ?

Over 90 percent of posts in the gambling section have gambling signatures, do you guys even care that you are preying on other people to lose their money in casinos.  Casinos aren't your friends, there goal is to take money away from you.  Do none of you feel guilt for advertising casinos?

That's what I'm doing now. I know what is ahead positive dynamics and I'm trying to accumulate more and more bitcoins until I have the time.

To clarify, the below post is not written by me.

"Is it true that Craig Wright is the real Satoshi as he claims?"

- https://www.quora.com/Is-it-true-that-Craig-Wright-is-the-real-Satoshi-as-he-claims/answer/Satoshi-Nakamoto-31

"Craig Wright has no single proof he is me, Satoshi Nakamoto.

The man has a track record of lies and derail.

He does not own the private key of the genesis block, he does not know how it is composed, he can not create from scratch the genesisblock to form the final hash, embedded in the source code of bitcoin.

He does not have the private key of pgp key 0x5ec948a1, known as my pgp key.

He is unable to transact one bitcoin of the whale wallets of the early coins.

He tricked the public using the wrong vistomail account.

He did try to sign and proof in front of Gavin Andresen and the BBC, he did fail.

He was part of the setup to create bitcoin unlimited to enlarge the blocksize, so it would be more difficult for the common man to run a fullnode blockchain on their own hardware, so it would only be for the big players, such as mining farms.

Finally he did launch his own altcoin Bitcoin cash. On websites such as Bitcoin.com ( do notice I registered and transferred bitcoin.org at that time. They did try to derail again, to sell the altcoin as a new bitcoin version or the 'right' bitcoin as intended. Abusing the term bitcoin for their altcoin. Promoting, buy bitcoin, but it was bitcoin cash or bitcoin unlimited, two altcoins.

A hardfork did happen where his altcoin did lose and in the process it was clear, bitcoin cash was prone to the 51 percent attack. More. Only a few miners did play the game.

In the process he did tweet in despair the community to convert bitcoin (core) to his altcoin, bitcoinSV or bsv. Known that it is estimated, I have a whale wallet of 1M btc, you would directly convert yourself, if Craig Wright was Satoshi Nakamoto, right?

Also our style and attitude is totally different. I, Satoshin, was NEVER into the play to be a dictator, to patent, to control or lead the project. I always proposed solutions, as my work was given to the public. For sure, there is copyright on the white paper, but this is assigned at creation to the author by international law.

His last steps recently are to claim patents, including an US copyright on my white paper. For that he did pay a small amount of 35 dollar or something, to do an electronic depot of the very well known white paper, bitcoin.pdf However, the office does not verify if the claimant of the copyright does match with the pen name of the author. So they registered the claim for copyright, however.

I, Satoshi Nakamoto, did register the white paper long before the release on the internet in the period 2008–2009 at a Belgian notary office, just in case, this would happen, so in a court case, he would be busted.

Additionally it seems, to my limited knowledge in the matter, you need to file in the 5 years after creation and the paper may not be published to the public. The white paper was published to the public about 10 years ago.

So no doubt, Craig Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto.

In fact, the community can check this. If all investors in his altcoin bitcoinSV or bsv do convert their coins to the original bitcoin core, btc, you will see for sure, there will be no single bitcoin from the whale wallet of Satoshi Nakamoto, that will be converted to rescue the altcoin.

Of course I can hijack his coin with my whale wallet, but I try to avoid this as long as possible, so I can stay in the grey zone. The reason for this is clear. When I come forward in public, the press will hunt me down like they did with Dorian Nakamoto. Also each day, some people will ask me for bitcoin or my interaction or remarks on the project.

It is pretty comfortable to be in the grey zone.

But this said, I am bold to state, Craig Wright is an imposter if he does claim to be me, Satoshi Nakamoto.

My real name is Jurgen E. G. DEBO, born in Belgium. On twitter @realsatoshin. Reason why I did use the german GMX service. More people are from Europe in the project. Another good developer in the project bitcoin core is from Holland, despite his name sounds…well. And no doubt there are connections with Switzerland, reason why Hal Finney did step in to create the first prototype of my work in the spirit of MiT open source !

As related to my handle, Satoshi Nakamoto means, Sato Shi Naka Moto. The clear vision (wisdom) is in the center (your heart). I used my first, third and last name, 15 characters in an alternation of a caeserian cypher to have 15 letters, to finaly combine them with Japanese words. Finally I used Japanese exit nodes, using tor or sometimes openproxies to hide my IP. Clearly I did respect the Japanese business hours. We learn in Belgium, British English and in school, we did use double space after the dots in typewriting work, so may this explain some questions.

Bitcoin and Blockchain is for the public. It is decentralized. It is designed to live on it's own, without the possibility to manipulate, control or divert the system to people who do have greed, power and ego boost in their minds.

Those who know me, do know, I clearly am open source minded. As I defend higher ethics, like WE the people, WE as community.

So do not have fear. Dr Craig Wright is only a wannabee and another 'faketoshi'.

All the Best

Satoshin"

...

To clarify (again), the above post is not written by me.

Is this guy Satoshin? Who knows?

Certainly does sound a lot more like the real 'Satoshi' who was present on this very forum ...

 

Bitcoin is about to get a lot more expensive than it is today,
So is it possible to see Bitcoin price hovering around 100k each by next year and why?

This message is to anyone who think being on a mission to kill Bitcoin is a "wise" decision. Use Craig Wright as a case study and compare it to the life he'd have if he were to focus on building his own platform and promoting it in his own way.

Secondly, take a look at all those so-called "Bitcoin killer coins" and look at their fate without Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is the most loved asset in this ecosystem and so it's meaningless to try to make it your hunting mission. Together, Bitcoin lovers are stronger than anyone or any coin.

So next time you think about killing Bitcoin, remember you'll be "dead and forgotten" before you even start.

Have a nice evening!!!

Primedice user (Marcelod4) won in a day 51BTC  and convert to 51BTC to $178,700 <-- awesome wining .

Congratulation Marcelod4

I can think of a lot of things but the infamous Mt. Gox hack was, for me, the biggest crime made in the cryptoworld. Not only does it expose a lot of flaws and vulnerabilities of the then young cryptocurrency but it also projected the dangers of having to entrust one's funds into a centralized exchange/entity. The next in line would have to be Silk Road, which was operated supposedly by Ross Ulbricht, which, again, informed the world about the possible use of bitcoin in the criminal underworld due to its pseudo-anonymity, hard to trace transactions and its overall qualities which is pretty much helpful in remaining anonymous while transacting with other people.

It's seems like this news are official because you can check the press release on their website that confirms it. AT&T is one of the largestst telecommunications company in the US and they have millions of users registered to their services so this proves us bitcoin is really growing by time since large companies start to accept it as a payment method. Even though I'm not from US I still think this is great because other companies from all around the world will follow the same move and we shall soon be able to pay for a lot of things using bitcoin.

365 days from now, we will see another bitcoin block halving. Everyone touted this event as the pre-cursor to the next massive bull run, new all-time-high to be set. What are your plans?

Start hoarding BTC now and let's see how everything goes next year.

What ATH are you seeing? As far as I can remember it took four to five months before the price started to move and goes on a parabolic rise till the end of 2017.

How do you trade?Use a wallet to trade or use leverage to trade

Can hardware wallets like Ledger Nano be hacked and their coins stolen?
