RUSSIA JUST UNBANNED BITCOIN!!1

They are advertising on state owned TV!

[Mervyn_Pumpkinhead]

Of course it's not.

It's just that the current system full of bailouts and behind the scenes manipulation doesn't have much to do with "survival of the fittest". Or which traits are we trying to reward here?

Let's forget that at first the subject was about inflation and then education. Let's pretend that the subject was about the policy of central banks. Let's pretend that this isn't a religious forum full of mindless demagogy and attempts to make black and white seem the same.
Now.. I agree that the policy of central banks is far from perfect. Their major fault has been to give the private sector too much freedom, without any need to be responsible for their actions. It's always funny to see bitcoin zealots swear at the ultra-liberal policies of central banks, while they are trying to market bitcoin as an ultra-liberal tool. That is the reason why I despise the majority of bitcoin fanatics, because they are mostly hypocrites whose only connection with economics has been through youtube videos. Too me, bitcoin fanatics are the same as Bolsheviks. Lot's of empty words about freedom and equality, but mostly they are just about gaining wealth and power by contributing as little as possible to the society themselves.

ALL THE RICH RUSSIANS WILL TRY TO THROW IN ALL OF THEIR MONEY BEFORE THE PRICE SKYROCKETS DUE TO THE NEWS!

RT aka Russia Today isn't an official, mainstream media outlet, although it does receive some funding from the Russian state. It mostly merely focuses on uncovering the lies in the west, demoralizing it.

The train to sub 400$ ? Would be a shame. Ride the fiat train to victory.

[harlenadler]

Can someone please explain the significance of BTC-E being > Bitstamp?

I think last time this happened, we rallied. I swear sometimes, BTC-E has a crystal ball.

Lol. You are trying hard. It's just not your talent. It's almost like by trying hard you fail at pumping. Pumping is a lot more subtle. Pumping involves making the audience think it's their brilliant insight that the market is going to go up. Not you telling them. You have to present bullish info and almost discount it yourself a little. Make it seem like you are just passing on info, etc.

Trolling is about in your face fear and/or annoyance - which is your specialty, creating depression so that people just feel more miserable all over and are more likely to sell even if it hurts themselves.

[ShameOnYou]

Huobi now has 2800 in bids down to 3600 CNY

Over 4000 asks were also added near 3700.... but obviously that is not close to spread. May be fake.

Sounds wonderful, i miss those times . But no is not the time for it, it would be wasted energy. My wannabe pumping skills are weak and i know it, but i´m bored so what should i do.

You're supposed to be trolling the bears. You know, shorts being squeezed and all that. I mean, look at those bids on Huobi!

I could not recommend more that you listen to this tune : )

Woody Guthrie's "This Train Is Bound For Glory"

or a slightly more up tempo version from mummford and sons http://youtu.be/Kb2uciHpe4U

Made me smile anyway : )

Can´t troll them, deep down in my heart i will always be bearish & pessimistic. That´s why i like even the most stupid bear trolls like fallling. 
Also making profits with shorting was always much more enjoyable for me than the other side round.

I hear it. I shorted a lot in February and made a lot of money, loaded up on cheap coins. But then I got short squeezed in March and decided after that that the market could turn upward too quickly to keep leveraging against it. Betting the downtrend in February was a sure thing, though.

I made more money with leverage shorting in January & February, than i did with the bubble to 1200$, even though i was loaded up big time with ~100$ coins. Maybe that´s the reason for my bear love  
Especially during february, we had such an awesome valid & volatile channel for weeks where it was bascially free money to play ping pong!
