They are already buying. Why do you think theres no correction right now? Its only green candles, they are buying all orders up.

People should stop selling for a while, decrease the volume on the exchanges. There should be some way to protect against what they are planning to do.

This should be spread among all hodlers. Not to spread FUD, but to inform everybody about it.

The sharks are pumping the price right now. Just hodl it.

True. But I'm still worried if they dont have any new trick to play with.

And if they had actually bought bitcoin and are being responsible for the current pump? There's no correction, its only rising and rising. They can just dump it, as any whale can, except that they have 100x more money than any whale.

How much time do you think it will take for them to just destroy it?

The community is not reacting to it, instead it rejoices on ATHs and is not paying attention to the fact we dont have any correction anymore.

Interesting points. But what about tether? Tether was not created by the US government, but by Ifinex. And if Bitfinex banned US from their portfolio just to avoid this scrutiny?

CME is in the US. Can they manipulate the price on other countries? And the bitcoin exchanges from other countries, how they will be scrutinized? They will need to pass some regulations in the UN, and expand futures to other countries as well. This will take time.

I'm trying to buy bitcoin for four weeks now.

My fibo retracements are failing every time. My orders just sit there. The price keeps rising, theres no real dip.

Who do you think is pumping it? I think it is the hedge funds who are going to play with CME futures. They are coming with billions of dollars.

If they dump it in a short gambling, what do you think would be the extent of damage? How much would it fall? We cant use TA here, because it is clear human manipulation.

Do you think it is dangerous to buy bitcoin right now?

CNBC screen, not your bitcoin exchange screen.

This will only affect the price if they incorporate all bitcoin exchanges in their casinos.

Every country that have a (physical) gold exchange have it annexed and controlled by its stock exchange, which in turn is controlled by the State and hence is centralized. From there they have ETFs and futures.

Gold is not a decentralized trading system as bitcoin is, that is the reason why the price is always kept down. You dont have a independent gold exchange, as we have with bitcoin.

The only way they can affect the price is if the hedge funds buy bitcoins themselves and dump it when gambling for low prices in futures. But then theres the whales, and most whales are holders, and some of them just hate the centralized financial system.

I can. Amazon launching its payment platform right before Christmas.

This price would be if adopted worldwide? I mean, if it was used as a real currency?

It can reach 20k by this month already.

80k between february and may.

100k by the end of 2018.

And maybe 350k by the end of 2019.

I think it can reach 80k between february and may.

Very, very possible.

I think it is already a fact. Institutional money is massive, it will leave many of us perplexed.

Clearly. It is breaking all TA charts, its just amazing.

We cant speak of pre-10k prices anymore. I know, some of us want it to buy more, but we have to content ourselves with a 10k floor now. It is possible, it is forming already. When CME kicks in, this will be the dip.

Look at these candles, the whales dump and the sharks pump. Very wild.

I was expecting a correction, but there will be no one. There will be those massive candles instead, swings of four digits all around, and some people will think it was a too fast dip.

The floor is still in 7k. Why? Because there was no red candles, or only a few of them.

People will want to take profits, and naturally the price will fall.

This run was too much parabolic, and too fast. Get used to it. Institutional investors are putting money on it right now. We will see swings with four digits.

Its frightening. Just hodl it.

The sharks are coming. The whales know it and they are having their last enjoyment with speculation.

Estava 40 mil de tarde, agora está 37 mil.

Vão se acostumando. A variação agora será na casa dos quatro dígitos de dólar. Antes era três, aí você multiplicava pelo câmbio e somava o ágio pra chegar no valor em reais.

Com quatro dígitos teremos subidas e descidas em torno de 3500-4000 reais, e isso de uma hora pra outra.

Não vale a pena se desesperar logo após comprar. Se cair, espere subir, segure pelo menos um mês.

I think it is still cheap.

None.

FTFY.
