Decentralised-Liquidity Exchange -- 'D-L-Ex'

[IMZ]

Guessing-Game What price will Bitcoin be on March the 22nd? (a week or so after the W'voss ETF Thang?)

This competition may not catch on. Let's see.

B.N. calls '$0.' '$700 some time this year'

Sabretooth calls 'lower than people think. Big buy-in opportunity in coming months.'

IMZ: new guess, me -- $800? See 'Noo Info' just below

Some Guy Named 'Bogart': 'not slump more than 10%' [ http://www.etf.com/sections/features-and-news/bitcoin-etfs-dummies?nopaging=1 ]


Noo Info

To begin, we reckon: W’voss ETF? No – so that’s a negative.


Have the withdrawal suspensions on Chinese exchanges been lifted? EDIT: my error here The end of The Month of Withdrawal Suspensions doesn't end for a week. So, still future tense.

‘ . . . the suspension could either be cleared before the one month period or could potentially last longer than the original one-month timeline.’
https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-price-recovers-in-china-making-up-for-huobi-okcoin-withdrawal-suspension


‘BTC China did not give a timing for when any upgrade would be completed.’
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-02-10/china-bitcoin-exchanges-halt-withdrawals-after-central-bank-talk

[I put a couple of questions up on Reddit.]

Otherwise . . . I wonder if folks are keeping in the mind other generally positive situations, like le Pen’s popularity in France? And the March 15th end to the U.S. ‘debt-ceiling’ holiday, which will bring attention to the claims that Trump’s stimulus promises can’t be fulfilled.

EDIT: And the drama with Btc's unconfirmed transactions just ain't goin' away -- touching on 60K at this second. With the advance of DASH, and Ether's good present situation, Bitcoin's crown is sittin' a lil crooked!

What price will Bitcoin be in Mid-March?


B.N. calls '$0.' '$700 some time this year'

Sabretooth calls 'lower than people think. Big buy-in opportunity in coming months.'

IMZ: new guess, me -- $800? I can't play anymore 'cause there's a tiny prize up for grabs

jwinterm: $1800

the downward trend continues ...
EASY CALL ... refer to IMZ chart above.

And this chart -- https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/#btc-percentage -- shows you what the ratio is of altcoin cap to Bitcoin cap.

Note: yes BTC rallied but downward flag still clearly there.  
BOOM GOES THE DYNOMITE!!
@ 75% test point ... coming ^SOON-ish.

(funny I researched similar today)

https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/volume/24-hour/

POLO leads the pack;
alts have almost OFFICIALLY killed BTC max-maxxy-ist.

It used to be all about the exchange house with the BIGGEST "trust-me" fiat ledger;
It is quickly becoming "no give me an actual coin to withdraw" system.

OH YEAH



Now the question is which ALT to ride, and which to not ride  
Drink that kool-aide!

What price will Bitcoin be in Mid-March?

Good morning, B.N. This post is 'home base' for the day -- now posting across five sites.

One: first data of the day:

'Smaller Chinese cryptocurrency exchange Bter has resumed withdrawals in what commentator cnLedger describes as a “good start.” '

https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-exchange-bter-resumes-withdrawals-good-start-for-china

Two: Bitcoin uncomfirmeds: dang, heck, and shoot!! the 24-hr. charts shows unconfirmeds over 60K the whole time!

Three: okay, B.N. -- 1 Uno for the pot (and we'll co-operate on this so we don't seem to be trolling anywhere -- there's a 1K GRS pot also up at groestl.org).

Planet-Krypto articles seem more upbeat, Wall-Street articles seem less so. I suspect the Wall Street guys are making better estimations.

Meanwhile, we have forthcoming (a) the end of the U.S. debt holiday, and (b) the possibility of some folks in China cashing out in frustration as the Chinese exchanges re-open withdrawals, and (c) the Dutch elections, and (d) the likelihood of the U.S. Fed. Reserve increasing interest rates.

(And here in Oz, the West Australian elections will feature Hanson, the Australian anti-Left contender. Her increasing popularity mirrors that of Trump and le Pen. Watch this space!)

'IndiaMikeZulu' -- talk about altcoins versus Bitcoin all the time: the future of established altcoins is looking very very good.

understatement.

'The new Hungarian criminal process law will make it possible to confiscate Bitcoins and other virtual currencies from suspects even in the early stages of the criminal process.'

https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-can-be-confiscated-from-suspects-hungarian-justice-ministry-proposal


Empires in decline make more and more laws, in desperate attempts to maintain/regain control; and if you are a serious political animal, you recognise that this is good.

Say what?

The Eurozone is a fine example.

It might have lingered for a decade or more; but at present it's shouting out its own insanity:

threatening U.K. academics with disciplinary procedures for using the word 'homosexual,' threatening member nations with fines if they don't accept more refugees; sending climate-change professionals to symposia at expensive resorts, bellowing twaddle about how Bitcoin was somewhat responsible for the Paris terror attack, saying publicly that the citizens of EU nations should not have their wishes considered in EU processes, using its influence over the media to restrict coverage of the rapes and assaults committed by migrants, etc., etc., etc.

Us IMZ guys have no doubt that we are descending into a violent techno-dystopia, and that cryptos(/encryption) will be central to that dystopia.

So, bring on the craziness: a few unfortunates will lose their cryptos; but such events will jolt hundreds of millions of people into realising that the emperor has no clothes.
