Oh well
Good while it lasted
Really? What if I tell you that bulls are giving a chance to buyers to get rid of their tethers and get into bitcoin a bit cheaper than at more than $8000? Totally wrong. They dont give a fuck!! they try their best to fuck up all traders. The tether waiting guys arent buying more than 20% to 50% if bitcoin goes to 3000$ - 5000$. But they gonna invest 100% of their tether if bitcoin price pump his price days after weeks.

Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / SEC Halts Fraudulent Scheme Involving Unregistered ICO " CENTRA : CTR "

on: April 03, 2018, 12:11:19 AM

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 2018-53 Washington D.C., April 2, 2018 — The Securities and Exchange Commission today charged two co-founders of a purported financial services start-up with orchestrating a fraudulent initial coin offering (ICO) that raised more than $32 million from thousands of investors last year. Criminal authorities separately charged and arrested both defendants. The SEC's complaint alleges that Sohrab “Sam”¯ Sharma and Robert Farkas, co-founders of Centra Tech. Inc., masterminded a fraudulent ICO in which Centra offered and sold unregistered investments through a "CTR Token."¯ Sharma and Farkas allegedly claimed that funds raised in the ICO would help build a suite of financial products. They claimed, for example, to offer a debit card backed by Visa and MasterCard that would allow users to instantly convert hard-to-spend cryptocurrencies into U.S. dollars or other legal tender. In reality, the SEC alleges, Centra had no relationships with Visa or MasterCard. The SEC also alleges that to promote the ICO, Sharma and Farkas created fictional executives with impressive biographies, posted false or misleading marketing materials to Centra’s website, and paid celebrities to tout the ICO on social media. According to the complaint, Farkas made flight reservations to leave the country, but was arrested before he was able to board his flight. Criminal authorities also arrested Sharma. "We allege that Centra sold investors on the promise of new digital technologies by using a sophisticated marketing campaign to spin a web of lies about their supposed partnerships with legitimate businesses,” said Stephanie Avakian, Co-Director of the SEC's Division of Enforcement. “As the complaint alleges, these and other claims were simply false." "As we allege, the defendants relied heavily on celebrity endorsements and social media to market their scheme,”¯ said Steve Peikin, Co-Director of the SEC's Division of Enforcement. “Endorsements and glossy marketing materials are no substitute for the SEC’s registration and disclosure requirements as well as diligence by investors.” The SEC’s complaint, filed in federal court in the Southern District of New York, charges Sharma and Farkas with violating the anti-fraud and registration provisions of the federal securities laws. The complaint seeks permanent injunctions, return of allegedly ill-gotten gains plus interest and penalties, as well as bars against Sharma and Farkas serving as public company officers or directors and from participating in any offering of digital or other securities. In a parallel action, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York today announced criminal charges against Sharma and Farkas. The SEC's investigation, which is continuing, is being conducted by Jon A. Daniels, Luke M. Fitzgerald, and Alison R. Levine of the SEC's Cyber Unit and New York Regional Office, and supervised by Valerie A. Szczepanik and Robert A. Cohen. The litigation is being conducted by Mr. Daniels, Mr. Fitzgerald, and Ms. Levine, and supervised by Ms. Szczepanik. The SEC appreciates the assistance of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. Investors in the Centra ICO who believe they may be a victim should contact www.SEC.gov/tcr. The SEC's Office of Investor Education and Advocacy has issued an Investor Bulletin on initial coin offerings and additional information is available on Investor.gov and SEC.gov.

I Already pointed out the support @ 6.600$ 2 Days ago. The Weekly RSI WAS @30. The last time we saw this low Weekly RSI was in: 29.09.2015!! The pressure for the downtrend below 6.600$ to 6.430$ was duo to big wales wanting a good reload @ around 6.600$ We saw now there is no big whales trying to stop the bitcoin pump. they also can sell @ around 7.300$ then push the price for 6.000$ for a last reload before the big pump. If the bitcoin price doesnt go to near 9.000$ in the next 48H then a last dump gonna occur.

Hey there,
I know that bitcoin is the most secure thing ever created and that duo to his low speed verification/transaction. If bitcoin turns to be very quick, hes going to lose from his security and then the possibility to be hacked.
But i have a question for bitcoin old big holders: When the bitcoin lightning fork gonna happend: are you going to hold the same amount of bitcoin and bitcoin lightning or more bitcoin lithting or sell all and buy more bitcoin?
The fact is: you can make transaction for less than 1 cent in 1 to 3 seconds max.
For me: i gonna use bitcoin for most of my money saving as it is the most secure thing on planet for now, and hold some bitcoin lightning for small transactions. Also can use it for big transaction if i need the transaction to happend in a second.
So, what is your view/Strategy on it?

Hi,
Can anyone please tell me why bitcoin rise is so strong and pushing for new all time high?
As i know the segwit2X Hard fork is cancelled. Is there something i'm missing?
CME and Wall Street, BCH failure, public awareness and adoption, etc This strong rise has been on the cards for a while It happens so quickly thats what amaze me. If this is a real bull and not a bull trap the price can go at least to 9930$ in the next 2 to 3 Days.
