ALL IN ALL WE'RE JUST ANOTHER BRICK

IN

THE

WALL.

I suggest we look a bit to the future a bit more.

Visualize HODLing 'til 2020 Halvening.

Just visualize it.

Bitcoin....Bitcoin......he's our man.....if he can't do it.....no one can!!!!

[Searing]

that is my fear....or if you go by the old bubble chart of despair....that would be the bottom...more or less.....

so much for BTC being a store of value....maybe it will bounce back some..but who wants a store of value yo/yo that gives you a heart attack every 4 months

Real store of value is decades away still. Anyone who bought that line is a gold plated tosspot.

yep, that was me...or I would have sold at the top Either that or I thought 21 million BTC with 80% made ...meant something...

so what is our hope now....this was all a play by whales and FUD to drive the price down to get the cheap coin and a rebound?

would settle for such a hall of supervillains plan if it got the price of BTC back over 9k USD

(I'm sooooo shallow)

This message came from darkwebforum. Dont know but its possible:

From the 15th January’ 2018, there have been rumors from forums in the dark web about a possibility of a slump, down to $6000 by February 1st week before prices return to the original consolidation stage at $14K by March 2nd week.

On January 5th, when Bitcoin prices were at $17,000, at a dark web forum which can be accessed through any anonymous browser (like Tor), a forum member by the name Cyberjourno, says: “Guys, there are big players in play, big institutional players who want to bring the price down to $7000, I know it seems impossible now but these guys handle the media and know how to control the market. For the coming couple of months, guys, stay safe, don’t be scared. Brace for FUD FUD FUD!”

On Jan 5th there were two other comments on multiple forums in the Russian and South Korean social sites that suggested a bigger market manipulation in play. Interpreted and translated versions of the comments read: “Waiting for US, South Korea, Indian and Thai markets to break negative stories by February, prices to stoop back to $5000. Big market players waiting to invest millions in Bitcoin and smaller crypto counterparts. It’s easy to guess, find the common corporate entity that controls media houses in these countries. Make your connection”

I know the Thai markets very well. They have very very little influence on bitcoin prices.

I have considered moving one of my cold storage wallets to one of the Thai exchanges to move the price so one of my gf's orders would go through. It would be very easy. We got kicked off their main exchange because we deposited more money than their commercial account could handle in one day.

If a Thai media corporation wanted lower prices they would just drop a couple hundred thousand worth of BTC on it and push the price down. Looking at the main exchange there are only about 5 BTC from here to $20k.

Just another bubble. There'll be another one along in a few months or years and it starts again. And no one will have learned anything new.

Taunting me with hope..that everyone is as clueless as I am....indeed...do you think I am that gullible?

Real store of value is decades away still. Anyone who bought that line is a gold plated tosspot. I love the principle and it makes sense due to BTC's qualities, but it's being constantly shat on by human nature.

We haven't even mined the last block yet! That's still at least 100 years away. Maybe by that point it will become reasonably stable, or at least on a similar level with gold. So I agree, everyone who believes Bitcoin is a "store of value" is bullshitting themselves, just like the people who think we're on the verge of "changing the world". I'm not saying that there aren't revolutionary qualities about Bitcoin, but at least for now, 99% of this market is about investors trying to make easy money.

[JayJuanGee]

Doesn't anyone here have a life?

Not when their lambo dreams are even futher delayed  

With all due respect, we lost our imaginary Lambos weeks ago.

But Bob's still got his new Porsche.  And the old one, it sounds like.  Seems like best bet is to skip the imaginary ones, and get a real one.  They last longer!

EXACTAmente.

Ding ! Ding !

Two more buy orders went through while I was on the phone.  I feel like I am leveling up in World of Warcraft.  

I am enjoying this crash immensely.  The wait at the bottom may be a bit of a pain but I am young and patient.

It's already massively changed the world, and every one of us who's touched it, digitally speaking.

Remittances from workers all over the world were expedited cheaply for many years.

Women in countries where they can't have a bank account are now saving and spending and building wealth & micro-businesses.  

BTC has funded charities and political movements.

I know lots of Bitcoiners who won't have to pay war taxes this year in USA.

Come on, even Wall Street is getting involved, (damn it.)

Maybe it hasn't changed the First World enough for you, but it has already changed the world in spades.

Could not agree more that too much emphasis has been put on BTC as an investment tool only.

[JayJuanGee]

Im just buying piecemeal now. Im not even trying to guess or trade the bottom - itll bounce too fast.

Tera Bera... reverted to likely temporary incremental bullism.


Go figure!       Crazy times call for crazy happenings.

[lightfoot]

I am still in HODL mode. (stubborn skills that I seem have down, in spades).

Oh good, I'm glad you're still alive. Don't worry about this, it's normal silliness, remember when I was stupid enough to trade 2btc for an ounce of gold?

Oi.....

[bones261]

I take it Peter is now referring to Bcash as the one true Bitcoin.  True to form.

No.  You take BTC as "the one true bitcoin."  As for me, I say that I don't know.  Maybe BTC will remain dominant; but maybe BCH with its greater block size limit will overtake it.  Or maybe a new branch will prevail.  It doesn't matter to me because Bitcoin is the sum of its forks and I hold them all.  

Unfortunately, it appears that in all of my views of this web page, https://txhighway.com/, the one lane highway is still being used much more heavily than the 8 lane highway.   It appears the BCH proponents have a long way to go to get anywhere near the adoption BTC enjoys now. This is despite the BTC mempool being at times so clogged that it is "unusable" as BCH supporters have spouted out time and time again. Or the recent narrative seems to be that BTC now has low fees because it is losing adoption. Well, that may be true, that BTC is losing adoption. However, as the web page that I have linked to demonstrates, time and time again, BCH is not gaining adoption by leaps and bounds.

Real ones need oil changes. But you know, I took my Bitcoin Porsche to work today, it was really nice on the back roads. And it makes me feel better about the whole crash thing.

Course I have to replace the damn timing belt in the spring, but that's life.
