Oh yes! Switzerland is not a bad place to live   I would definitely move there and I actually I have a friend who lives there: he is using BTC since 2012 and he confirmed me that as long as you stick to the law buying/selling/exchanging BTC makes no problem. He has several BTC debit cards (xapo, spectro, cryptopay, advcash) and uses them on a daily basis. Lucky him

Let's move there

Interesting

That's funny, about 5million coins, and surely estimated holdings of individuals - yet I am sure that we can account for more than that, no?  Or does attempting to account become too petty after listing the supposed top 23-ish?

Whenever I look at the coindesk news listing, all 20 titles say "something something Blockchain something something Bank". I'ts sickening.

Although the list is totally inaccurate and created by anti-Bitcoin alt pumpers, it does give me a warm and fuzzy knowing that the people with the most money in the new economy will be those that actually supported the original intent of Bitcoin and its reason for coming into being. As opposed to the "we need to regulate Bitcoin!" crowd and the "the blockchain is the answer (because we still worship Keynes)!" crowd.

worth noting that there are currently around 800 btc atm worldwide. with this stunt the sbb adds another 1000 vending machines, that spit out btc.

The 1-week Bitcoin/$USD chart correction is nearing completion. That chart range started correcting around the end of July when the big dump-down from the 5180 Hobular high occured.

That correction also painted the handle onto the humungous 3-year cup and handle formation thats been forming since the 2013 China-driven $1200 ATH.

The timing of events seems to be pointing to a perfect storm towards the end of the year, possibly consisting of Lightning Network arrival, Segwit, BTC Developer & mining consensus putting previous confrontations to bed and an array of chart technicals going green. Things would then be in place for the Wrinklyboss ETF to turn up and light the touchpaper on the tinder pile.

spot on

one caveat: fundamentally we don't know what will be the catalyst exactly, but any sort of conclusion of the "scaling" debate will do. Might even be a - lo and behold - successfull hardfork to unlimited

$680 is holding nicely, i think China will pump it during Saturday night/Sunday morning while the West is sleeping.

Nice, but also sad that this happens first in rich Switzerland, where CHF is kind of stable and no real need for, except TAX reasons,  but not in cuntries like Zimbabwe, Venezuala, Argentinia,... where there is a real need for.

Current bitcoin holders turning into the new wealthy elite?

Current bitcoin holders turning into the new wealthy elite?

Yep. And if half of the Swissies (5Mio) buy some bitcoin instead or in addition to their train ticket by accident, they will stay richest on earth by accident and might say thank you SBB!

I am pretty sceptical regarding the application of TA to Bitcoin. With pumps & dumps in place, and mass speculation being the main driving force, you may paint pretty much any pattern on the charts and then deny it. I mean I wouldn't mind this cup and handle to play out as suggested, but I doubt it happens.

Indeed this is quite less real or a good thing to do. But if we have a mindset that wonderful then I think it's not something a bad thing. because of the nature of the world trading always starts with it all so nothing bad if we know which to do and which ones should be used. It's all already there when we trade .The world of trading is indeed full of uncertainties. But if it is we can do well then that was once the uncertainty is going to be a very definite advantage

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Still in the $680s I see... about $688 according to Bitcoinaverage.

We're in our second day of sideways consolidation, hopefully getting ready for a weekend rise past $700.

At least we seem to be holding on to this weeks increases. Touch wood!

[soullyG]

Little bump up to the $690's is a good start to the weekend

Great decentralization  for new investors and everage JOE .

This butthurt again? A high concentration of coins in few hands is a Good Thing. It makes the remaining more scarce, driving up price for everyone.
