Going further down than expected. Anyone know why?
A small possibility but It may be that people finally realized bitcoin is nothing more than a pump&dump get rich quick ponzi scheme maybe? Joke joke. That's not it. USD is gaining power against everything now because of the expected rate hikes. USD will get so powerful in the end it won't carry that power and explode.

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

 didn't realize that we crossed $1B in long leveraged on Finex back in December. And added $500MM around April. Now at $700MM too aggressive those things can break a floor

Because not enough people have been scared enough to sell yet, there is still to much hope . The down move won't break until we've seen the equivalent of Jan 13-15th 2015 when we saw 200,000 BTC trade on stamp and establish the $159 post 11/13 bubble low. Stamp hasn't seen volume like that (in pure BTC terms) since Nov 16 which is more or less the start of the current uptrend baseline of circa £3k.

My question is what is the expected time table for this? I know it will only be based on your knowledge and really only opinion based. But this drop is making me feel weird...

Saw that. Looks like the US is going to go after foreign exchanges. Finally the US getting involved with the business of other nations. Oh no, wait. The SEC can only regulate US exchanges. And the US exchanges are basically US government bank exchanges already. So...maybe they will drop bombs on foreign exchanges? That's what the US does best.

6-12 months after the next halving - 1 bitcoin = over $50,000
But....I want that now.  Not that I would cash out or anything. I'd still only spend $35k a year to stay in the low income bracket where I don't have to pay taxes. But still...it would make me feel better.

Is it true that bitcoin is failing because it is running out of greater fools? Like I feared, BTC is ruining it also for more interesting concepts like EOS

That's what the US does best. I think the SEC actually works as a contractor as well to provide their services to countries that desire/pay for them.

Maybe there is some news we havent found out yet that is causing this dump. Looking at the past year the rsi is currently just above the China ban, Feb 6th and April 1st levels. I wonder if 6800 will hold.

The SEC has the power to assert it's jurisdiction over any global exchange or ICO that accepts US investors. So if just one customer of the exchange or investor in the ICO is US domiciled the SEC can apply US securities law to that exchange or ICO. Note that the SEC does have to work with local regulators as well , there are various treaties that influence what actions the SEC can actually take. If a customer lies about their origin and is subsequently found to be from the US then the ICO/exchange can probably expect hefty fines and investigation by the SEC.

US investigators would actually have to get on the foreign exchanges to do an investigation.
Somewhat related, I downloaded the decentralized exchange, bisq.
It's pretty interesting in that you can see the amount of trades daily. US dollar trades are around 15 per day.
I went ahead and set up a sell order in baht for my gf to test it out in Thailand. Set it at 10% though so no bites.
It's not that great but at least a start.

I’m currently in Prague & moving on to Ukraine in a few hours for a few days ahead of the Champions League Final (all paid for courtesy of Roger & his shitcoin). Is it true that bitcoin is failing because it is running out of greater fools? Like I feared, BTC is ruining it also for more interesting concepts like EOS

So was that Asia's reaction? A $200 dip? Not to bad if we can build a fucking floor somewhere.

US slaves (aka US citizens) have to accept US gov jurisdiction over their money but I have the power to reject SEC self-proclaimed power. Actually, any country that has nukes to defend itself has such power.
