I am not here for attention, but if I were, your full page rant with giant purple letters would be just what I was looking for.
Anyone that knows jack shit about Bitcoin is long term bullish, so don't pat yourself on the back for that one.
I am here to talk about economic speculation of Bitcoin in a way that will help me improve my positions as I experiment with day trading.
I probably won't be doing it much longer after the bs that bitfinex is pulling right now. As soon as the trading engine unfucks itself, I am closing my positions and getting my coins off the exchange.

I am glad that you may be capable of some genuine back and forth discussion concerning substantive topics around the BTC topic.


Regarding bitfinex, I don't know where you are at, but that exchange certainly is not the only exchange or method of trading BTC...   

As many of us have recognized, that exchange had some issues a few months ago, so there was considerable increased risk to play on their platform... and accordingly they are not exactly the most awe-inspiring of the exchanges. 

hopefully, you can get your coins off of their exchange and allocate your risks a bit better with some trading/exchange system that is better... that is if you consider trading or continuing to trade.

I don't claim to trade too much, even though I have many more trading capabilities in place and some of my BTC positioning does sometimes allow for and even call for increased BTC trading in order to  protect and/or enhance my holdings and/or position.  To me, it is kind of seeming like the more coins you accumulate, the more likely that your trading activities are going to increase... possibly trading also comes, somewhat with having a BTC portfolio that's in the black.

Actually, I want to comment a little further in response to your below comment - that I also bolded above.



>>>>>>>>Anyone that knows jack shit about Bitcoin is long term bullish, so don't pat yourself on the back for that one.<<<<<


Even though you are probably being a bit disingenuous in your comment, and unnecessarily hostile in acting as if bitcoin has been in an obvious and ongoing bull market. 

This supposed "obvious and ongoing bull market" is only a recent development in bitcoinlandia, and even a few bears are still fighting such changed trend a little bit, even though quite a few of even the more hardened ones are recognizing the trend as reversed..

I don't really feel that it is necessary or even fruitful for me to substantiate my position in this matter - even given you the benefit of the doubt that you may merely be a dumb and a bit of a wanna-be precocious kid.  In essence, part of my point is that it was not too fashionable to be a bull - even a few months ago.. and many previous bulls dropped out, and only recently are either jumping on the bitcoin train or considering jumping back on.

If I lose a bunch of money on a bogus exchange again, I will quit bitcoin for good.
This shit is fucking unacceptable.

What on earth could the anonymous owners of BFX have to gain by pocketing your cash?

Oh.

Yeah.

If you are not the sole controller of the keys, you don't really own that bitcoin. Hard lesson that each person seems to need to learn through negative reinforcement.

nice little fight at 3000

[JayJuanGee]

Bitfinex seems to be back to normal for now.
I am seriously thinking about closing my positions and getting my coins off the exchange.
The last time I got burned by an exchange, I lost over $30k. I am not about to repeat that mistake.
I dunno. Whadda you guys think?

If you're not day trading, then keep your coins in your wallet.

Somebody who lost 30 grand would not be asking this forum what to do.  

Yep... hahahahahaha      

seems kinda  1)   troll-ish, 2) made up or 3) retarded  

Or 4) a kid who thinks being a trader is cool.  

That would fall under the category of "retarded."    

Call me a liar all you want, it doesn't change the fact that I have been in this game since 2011. I mined over 3000 bitcoins with the array in this video. I am the owner of the ROBOT-ARMY, which was in the top 10 mining arrays on deepbit. I was running 14GH in 2011.
Why does it surprise you that someone that lost 30k on a bogus exchange would be here. In bitcoin world, 30k is peanuts.

For having all of that supposed experience, you ask a lot of dumb questions, and you also bring up a lot of dumb topics in apparent attempt to make everything about yourself.  If you want to contribute to the dialogue with your various experiences, then do it. 

It does not seem very relevant or necessary to list of any of your supposed credentials to which they may exist except maybe to the extent that experiences around such
credentials may relate to some topic at hand...

so hopefully you can stay focused long enough to contribute to the topics of the thread without becoming too emotional in your various outbursts.

Ouch chalidore, that's like a gigaSFYL. Puts an exclamation point on jbreher's sage advice. Kinda blown away you're so open about it... does add a few points for character though. You've made some good calls so far... best of luck.

It was just a bit of a joke because your series of ignoring folks kinda reminded me stylistically about how Shroomie would do it, and then some posters would question whether there was anyone left in the thread who he read, besides himself.

Don't really know. As a consequence, I keep less than pocket change on either. I might, however, point out that they are federally regulated*. Is BFX?

*Still a devil, but a devil with known parameters.

[billyjoeallen]

Over $27 million in longs now.  This is getting crazy.  There's not nearly enough money on the exchange to absorb that.  Are y'all expecting suckers to wire 27 million bucks to a sketchy exchange to buy coins when you close your longs? 

It's going through the floor if there is a major shock. 

[aztecminer]

if ripple dies... oh well not my fault. too bad so sad... ripples exchange is going DOWN. u got literaly one month get ur stuff out of ripple exchange or "you wont be able to access it."

Ripple: The First Cryptocurrency Of the Central Banker Set [tm]



BULLISH!

their exchange "rippletrade" is going DOWN. they saying it is a new beginning. really what is happening is they are collapsing and they are going for the money on that exchange as they collapse. RIP ripple.. sorry to see you get torpedoed like that .. u be surprised the stuff that happens caused by obama strategies for the wrong reasons. maybe the next ripple 2.0 alt coin will be better.

For clarification, I meant Bullish for Bitcoin. (cuckoo for cocoa puffs?)

I'm in the clear. I've got some several dozen thousand Ripples, but I've not been able to access them since they reconfigured their site access credentials some months (years?) ago. I've long since written them off.

maybe the next ripple 2.0 alt coin will be better.

ehhh... probably not.

[aztecminer]

Now on Bitfinex...

whats up with that ??

[Cconvert2G36]

Over $27 million in longs now.  This is getting crazy.  There's not nearly enough money on the exchange to absorb that.  Are y'all expecting suckers to wire 27 million bucks to a sketchy exchange to buy coins when you close your longs? 

It's going through the floor if there is a major shock. 

Shorts are at 6k btc. Even the bears are bullish. There were more longs back in august, and what was the price then and now? People are feeling some tectonic rumblings here, humans have innate herding tendencies... sure it'll end in tears for some/most. We need a bearwhale to step up and lay down on the tracks, but they're being shy.
