So we are sitting on an 11% swing and people are jumping off bridges?  Ok you guys are going to really lose your shit if we have a 20% swing.  Which is supposed to be a normal daily occurrence in Bitcoin

That confirms my suspicion that we have not shaken all the weak hands yet. $20K can't happen before properly doing it so better now than later.

Nice to get a bit more volatility in the markets - sure it'll be back up again soon =)

BBC Radio 4 investigation being broadcast now, into Mt Gox / BTCE and the 'biggest Bitcoin theft ever'.

Fun if you can get it where you are (not sure if it's easy outside the UK).  But some interesting interviews including Karpeles.

Karpeles under Japanese Bankruptcy law could make millions, even after settlement...

Blame CNBC, their headlines are rediculous, moneytalks was showing people how to buy ripple at $3 then telling people to sell at $1

Actually, that was masterluc's thesis as well.
Btc has to spend a bit of time bobbing around 10k to get rid of weaker hands (at this level).

In 2011: moon at $10
In 2012: moon at $100

--this thread is made--

In 2013: moon at $1000
In 2014-17: moon at $10000
In 2018-20: moon at a million dollar (John laughs at those who didn't listen to him)

Now I'll come back to this thread in 2020.

Something is missing here, no?

We gotta moon at $100,000 before we are going to be able to moon at $1million...

Maybe Mr. MacFee is going to become, Ms.?

Is that an old picture of him? I thought the fat bastard had lost weight while he was in jail. Don't tell me he's already put it all back on again.

And yet another bitcoin moron polluting the airwaves....

“Blah blah blah...some bitcoin advocates say they hold bitcoin because it’s beautiful... blah blah
blah...nonsense...blah blah blah money launderering tax evasion blah blah blah”

a Harvard professor on msm who doesn’t have a fucking clue
about bitcoin .  
No surprise there.

Do you honestly think I give a shit ... you sniveling idiot? ... make sure you have your seatbelt on and all your Bitcoins bought...  "... before 5 March"  ...(yes this is you, punk!)

bought in at $11,600 on March 4th at 11pm est. good call thanks.

Yep.  You seemed to identified that PoolMinor has a past practice of saying a bunch of random unsubstantiated bullshit stuff with a seeming goal to be viewed as a bitcoin sorcerer.   He is not the only one, in this thread that has some kind of seeming psychological issue that they want to be right, and believe that there is some kind of value in that.

 Surely, there is a chance that he could get his prediction correct, and then he would be puffing out his chest all over the place in this thread, and perhaps otherwise, attempting to get credit for his random luck (and maybe even trying to get gullible folks to pay him for such nonsense).

no clue..the smile will be the same...if under Japanese Bankruptcy law he gets a portion of his hoard back IN BITCOIN.....(ie property)

that would suck...

then if Craig Wright really is Satoshi (or part of a group and he is only one alive) and gets access to billions on jan 1st 2020 from a trust, as he claims...

well, sh*t I just scared myself Ack!

Exactly. This is something I will never understand.
Just deposit that fiat and buy the dip!

Judging by the glacial speed Japanese courts move at it will be years after 2020 before the gox case concludes. If Craig Wright really is Satoshi he'll get a payout before Karpeles.

I don't believe Wright is Satoshi, considering the best proof he could provide was a gobbledygook-looking string of text that he "just pulled straight from a transaction on the blockchain".

The signature in Wrights post, is just pulled straight from a transaction on the blockchain. Take the base64 signature from his post:

You poked too hard and now it's downtrending. Still bullish on the daily charts, I'm hoping for a resistance break this week otherwise bears will take over.

I agree...I just use Craig Wright as Satoshi to 'scare myself' in that IF he was, and IF he did get billions in BTC..he hates everyone now...and would burn BTC to the ground

by dumping IMHO on how he was treated by BTC folk and the Press.....(shudder) ...as an aside with a group of 'dubious' folk he is getting 'patents' on everything related

about 'blockchain'  ...(again, scared self) I put the odds at 1 in 20 he was part of a 'satoshi group' and is the last man standing.....(god knows BTC is weird enough, I'm

looking for a 'space alien' creation origin story)

Quote and pic from "Contact", one of my favorite sci-fi movies.
You meant that we are about to go to a galaxy far far away [as far as the price is concerned]...or you want us to come to Japan?
Japan seems to be doing great as far as bitcoin is concerned.

I think the 'space alien' creation origin story has better odds than the wright creation origin story.
