Well I put some more money where my mouth is. I just put bought 2 coins on Coinbase for $491/each. My question is is there a cheaper place to buy for people in US?

I also have a Kraken account but it restricts $ purchase because I'm in Ohio

I applied for a Circle account a couple months back and I'm still waiting for my "invitation"  

Is there a "best" or better exchange to trade/buy BTC or should I just stick to Coinbase?

not really...

until COIN is listed on the NASDAQ i'd recommend you stick with coinbase, there rate is pretty much the same as everywhere else...

I keep "forgetting" that most people here aren't interested in reality. They throw up a hypothesis, "huge amounts of Bitcoins accumulated off-exchange, that's why the price is driven lower by manipulators", yet they choose to ignore the evidence. The evidence being that what's probably the largest Bitcoin fund hasn't bought shit in over 3 months: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=337486.0 How is this reconciled? Is it just one particular individual accumulator, and not indicative of broader HNI actions? How likely is that?

So, I get it. Fantasies are nice. Reality sucks.

There's a simple question: If over the course of a couple weeks, supply (BTC) increases and demand (USD) decreases, would you have us not adjust prices because that would be "manipulation"?

Also, if manipulation is so easy, why aren't the Winklevosses or other large holders who are no longer accumulating doing their own manipulation upwards?

It's really getting pathetic, guys.

"Manipulating upwards" like you say would not be really profitable for them right now tbh.  What is the point of eating asks and asks when you can almost double your whole stack of BTCs rebuying lower?    

And how would they "double their whole stack" if the Winklevosses are holding 6 digits of Bitcoin? Yes, they have 100k BTC. What's on the exchanges is absolute peanuts to them. They have no more interest in accumulating more since they bought it all at double digit prices.

I said "almost" double.
Who is talking about the Winklevoss? I think they have better things to do than just sitting at a computer screen watching bitcoinwisdom.     I'm talking about random whales. Greedy nerds, hackers, early miners, pietilas and whatever

"They have no more interest in accumulating more since they bought it all at double digit prices"

How do you know that?   Whales want to get fatter and fatter, do you think all BTC huge whales are like "we have enough, let's just HODL now" if the price is so easily manipulated (order books are peanuts for them like you said)?


PS: Again, i said i don't believe this downtrend is mostly manipulation, i don't think it is.   It's a bunch of different factors and manipulation is just one of them.

this place is great...it is like watching a bunch of Jesuits (hold) argue with a bunch of Buddhists (let it all go...liberate your ego)....

heh.....well one side or the other is right time will tell I guess

[hmmkay]

Well my standard place to buy coins is sold out.  
People are buying, just not on the exchanges..

[N12]

The truth is, at every large sell, you'll be hearing manipulation screams here. So what are "legitimate" sells? Bitfinex pigs getting slaughtered to the tune of 8 million USD within 2 days so far is manipulation I guess?

That's enough of me pissing against the wind, oda.

I just see people scream others what to do like their words have an influence on the price  



Yes BTC is falling, by the look of things it might go lower.  No that doesn't necessarily mean it's over, but it could

The bitcoin it`s going down cause the Ethereum team it`s dumping all the BTC! They dumped 1,150 bitcoins 5 days ago when the price was $590, 1,350 3 days ago when the price was $550, and now they have dumped 1,237 more TODAY when the price was $510, that`s why we went down 500usd and we are going to $450... Fucking Ethereum, stop killing the bitcoin.

Dude, I said I agree with you, this is not just a "conspiracy, thank you for cheap coinz suckaz lool"  situation.
"Manipulation" is not the major reason why there is this downtrend.

But if you think Bitcoin is not HEAVILY manipulated (both down AND up) you are just out of your mind.



"Bitfinex pigs getting slaughtered to the tune of 8 million USD within 2 days so far is manipulation I guess?"
Well that would be the point
But as I said, it's not mostly "manipulation".

True , crying manipulation whenever the price isn't going the way you want it to is just plain stupid.

In other news, darkcoin and doge being taken to the slaughterhouse.
