I'm gonna buy a robot mop. I like gadgets, having money to waste on toys is fun.

Looks like Petro sale was a fizzer and hasn’t raised a cent.

hmmmmmm  Maybe the petros have not been transferred anywhere yet.
I do find it hard to believe that had raised $700K in one day.

The other possible big dumper is of course Wall Street.  Settlement date is Feb 28 on futures contract.

So Europe or Asia bought. Now it’s up to the USA to pass or veto.

Where's the guy who says: "The next 24 hours are critical."

Next 12 hours are critical  

So are bulls attempting to break 12K this time?

Coindesk says it’s only 11.3k. https://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-is-back-over-10k-but-price-rally-looks-weak/

But we already had that broken less than a week ago... so i’d figure it’s 12k.

I really don't appreciate this additional gag gift the bear whales are serving up today. Gee whiz, my 50th hasn't even arrived in my part of the world, yet. Come on BTC markets, you have a little less than 12 hours to turn this around.   Friday is going to be hard enough for me.  

Whine and you shall receive!  

Hope this trend holds. Waking up to $10,000+ BTC was a nice birthday surprise. Please BTC, don't make my 50th harder than it already is.

Wait long enough and you can just buy the whole robot.  Robo-maid?

Next stop 8.9k

I hope that your short gets liquidated. Then, just to piss you off, BTC can touch your target of $8900.

Being above $10,000 feels much better doesn’t it. If any whales are watching I’m going to send BobLawblaw round to tap your ass if you fuck about & keep manipulating the price to send us under $10,000 again.

Imagine you were a whale, conspiring with other whales, who just doubled their money orchestrating the last crash, what would you gonna do now?
Me, at this point I would pump.

Well let’s hope that happens, $15,000 would be nice

Not bad...

Oh hey look, the CEO of the shitty, pointless app that even teens are starting to turn away from, and a company that has yet to make any money whatsoever and whose stock continues to plummet, got the third highest executive payout ever in history:

Fuck fuck fuck these faux tech billionaires.

User support is going from 8k to 10k now.

Also, tether FUD is gone.

[infofront]

The next 24 hours are critical, guys. There are some channels, wedges, H&S patterns, and shit going on.

[cAPSLOCK]

I always appreciate it when a newcomer to the thread makes it abundantly clear in their first post that they should be ignored.

Much more efficient that way.

I just thought the same thing.

You praise the blockchain technology in general Bitcoin doesn't equal the blockchain technology. I see that the blockchain technology isn't dependent on bitcoin and bitcoin value isn't guaranteed by the blockchain technology.

This is a glaring fundamental error.  Blockchain, and what makes it truly revolutionary cannot be separated from the token.  In the case of Bitcoin we are talking about the premier token on the premier blockchain.  They are inseparable.  Blockchain is useless without bitcoin.  You cannot have one without the other without losing the goodness of the entire thing.

So, pee pare ur selfie for either direction, including DOOM..... but not necessarily gonna happen.

Give us something to work with BMB.... What be happening with uie?

My BTC to cash ratio is about the same as yours, give or take. But I'm obviously not as serene about it as you are.

Maybe some zen meditation is in order?

I mean really dude (or dudette).  We already had our selfies a 70% price correction, and where is the bad news, exactly?

It could be the case that the implosion of various alts are kind of dragging down BTC, but we actually have clear paths ahead for segwit and lightning, and look at those transaction fees and times, low as fuck (just showing that the long-ass spamming attack had been clogging up blockchain matters for quite a long time)...

Anyhow, BTC fundamentals seem to be doing quite good, so I don't see why any HODLer should be freaking the fuck out regarding the "normal" ups and down of bitcoin.

Recall that an aspect of bitcoin that it the most easily counted upon would be its volatility.  In other words, we do not have any guarantees of either UP or DOWN, but we have as close as we could get guarantee to volatility. 

So hang onto your panties (and all the pants you commandeered), and we should be able to make it through these trying (but seemingly expected) BTC volatility times.   

I would argue that BTC fundamentals are better than ever. The fact that we didn't go back to last year's initial price yet despite China type bans and all the FUD means that the biggest hodlers understand that governments and CBs have already lost the battle. It's just a matter of acting out the play for the masses now.

And from a technological perspective we're obviously much better off than we have been just a year ago as well, so any and every reason that people would've had for selling off (other than panic sales) has already been shown to be irrelevant for the future of Bitcorns.
