Do you think he would get banned for sig + spam if he joined a signature campaign? He makes 168 posts every week and money from a signature campaign would help to pay for the rent of his server. One of the campaigns might make an exception for his very bad quality posts because he is providing a service.

I've had a couple of offers but decided against it. Now that I'm hosting the images on imgur, it's really not costing me anything to do it.

One thing I was considering was no advertising on the forum but maybe some advertising in the linked images. I'm not sure how many people actually view those though (not that it would be hard to find out).

Alamo, Nevada. They've booked out the whole town. I was there a couple of days ago. It was kinda OK.

To be fair, double digits are just $145 away.
$1k? $755

I would love to see Bitcoin really take off like it did when karpeles was manipulating the price. His bots made us a ton of money. I just think that currently there isn't enough movement to justify keeping much money in limbo. I do see reasons for waiting it out though. If you're very young, without resources and don't have much money to play with then moving it somewhere else won't do you much good. You may as well leave it alone and gamble on a large increase making you a few hundred percent profit. Also, if you're a bitcoin cultist you wouldn't sell at any price so you don't care if the price barely moves. A pure profit driven trader should know better than to hang out for ages waiting for a huge increase especially considering what we all now know about the reason for the original bubble up to $1,200.

Unfortunately this makes sense for a serious investor. I am an idiot and have quite a bit invested in btc that I could put elsewhere but I feel Bitcoin could go up at any moment, probably when I am least expecting it!

I hold a lot of silver too. I was told not to keep all your eggs in one basket so I decided to lose money on 2 different things. Oops

Seriously though, there are a lot more things out there that pay out a lot better from an investment point of view.

I'll go against what I know makes sense and keep on hodling btc.

There's nothing wrong with holding Bitcoin. It's no different than having a few gold or silver coins. You don't run out and sell them if the price holds steady for a few months. I was talking about serious investors and speculators. At one point, there were quite a few serious investors here. They should be somewhere else right now. That's probably why this thread is so dead lately.

Looks like they're not seeing the mystery candles for 10-80k coins happening in china with clockwork regularity, nor the repeating orders on bitstamp that barely move the price, nor the complete dearth of action in the intervening periods.

To use raw volume numbers reported by the unregulated exchanges as the sole basis for a trade sounds to be something other than "experienced".
