Looks like everyone that went to sleep yesterday with short positions expecting sub $1000 got bitchslapped in the face. This is why trading is such a fucking gamble. Thank god I only sold a small amount at 1200, now im just waiting for a correction to get in again, but I will ultimately wait for an official SEC statement. If it's approved... insta buy. If not, i'll buy back in lower with the 1200 I got on the exchange.

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

Me and a lot of people sold at the stable $1200 price range, so it is normal that a lot of people got fucked by this mega pump. I will also stay cautious and don't rush it, I think we will see sub $1200 again and we can get in. Of course, if the ETF is finally approved, we may not be able to ever buy below $1200 again, so im F5ing the web every second.

they are sure hating themselfs today. the crazy price increase besides the ETF deadline might be the news about federal reserve wanting to hike interest rates in coming week. On the ETF note, what is your go to site for the ETF verdict? SEC site would be first to release the verdict https://www.sec.gov/news/pressreleases |

I don't know if the SEC Press Releases site will even have the news, and if you have watched the last few releases. Some are delayed by almost a day, i.e. one dated the 9th, posted yesterday on the 10th.

Also being so close to the deadline i am sure they have made their decision and it is moving from hand to hand and it will be published soon. If no news today then it will be the first to be approved by default |

Maybe they will move it to 13th march (monday) I dont know why people keep saying it is today, last day for decision is monday I think. |

This is why many pro traders (who aren't market makers and/or don't have access to inside info), never trade on news events and why there is such huge volatilty around these events. Fact is, much of the price rise of potential Winklevoss ETF is already factored in. All those who are going to jump in on 'news' are jumping onboard for the last 10-20% of the entire move, buying all the BTC accumulated by the market makers way way down below. In all Likelihood, Bitcoin is going to get up to around $1500 before this move finally pops out. A $250 move may sound good but it really isn't. If I told you that I knew of a penny stock, price at $0.12, which was probs going to go 'all the way' to a whopping $0.15-$0.17, but which already had put in a near vertical parabolic move, for which there had been no meaningful correction and consolidation, would you be interested? If you would be interested, then you would have to have a hole in your head, yet this is the exact same position as Bitcoin is in right now. Absolutely terrible fucking long investment, with any short trade attempts being totally out of the question and highly likely to get squeezed. Some people about to get a fucking windfall very soon. Majority however, are going to get utterly fucking gutted. |
