Well, if we're destined to spend another year together we ought to really try to make something of it this time around. Maybe we should try to solve some longstanding math problems. The Yang–Mills existence and mass gap seems straight-forward enough, and there's a prize.

Maybe we should aim a bit lower.  We could crowd source a children's book. 

[JayJuanGee]

Here are the two charts actually on the exact same time scale. I'd say we are closer to point A than to point B, especially if the bear markets are getting longer. We all know though that the reality of the situation is it's not going to repeat itself and something brand new is going to happen.

JUST KIDDING

I will concede that you got a chuckle out of me on that one, Tera, mood ruinin, beara.... and part of the humor, this time, has to do with bear scenarios being more reasonable than they were a few months ago, and seeming unlikelihood of the more bullish scenario of your last "just kidding" chart.

So, you are suggesting we shoot short people. And illustrate it for kids.

I don't think that's what I meant at all.

Not a bad idea. Certainly if we pool together all of our talents we can do something good for the world.

It may lessen the pain of having to watch my family live on spam and ramen for the next year.

Ok. I will learn to steal groceries. Let's do this thing.

I've heard there's a silk road that helps with these sort of ideas.

Are we so poor now?

Damn, this is getting ugly too fast.

All the major corps have huge tax avoidance schemes, most of their profits are in tax havens while they destroy ordinary people's jobs and force them into welfsre while the people in the middle have to pay for. It doesn't sit well with me, that's all.  I don't want to pay more taxes, but the tax take is so reduced because the large corps and rich do not pay theirs - that I have to.

If there are places with lower taxes for these corporations to flow to...why is doesn't the US just compete and provide the same low taxes for everyone to flow to?

Whenever I say we should end taxes all I hear is "what about the roads!?!". Then I hear, "corporations are being big meanies by moving to places with no taxes". To which I say...we should end taxes.

The love of government roads (aka the very thing that causes millions of deaths each year) runs deep.

Remove personal income tax

That is all

Did a quick and nasty chart to see how things would look if the pattern repeated 2013-2015.

If the worst is that we hit a low of $4k and we're back at new highs next year then it's not that bad at all.

The main problem I have with all these 2013-2015 comparisons is that they provide the perfect bear food; they become self-fulfilling prophecy, opium for the masses, for no other reason than they half-assed sorta-kinda match a trend we saw years ago, under completely different circumstances.

I'm as guilty as anyone for seeking patterns in the knucklebones and chicken guts; however, shorters and manipulators are using this to great advantage, because every little dump they prescribe has all the sheeples and lemmings running after them with sky-is-falling syndrome, pointing to the holy charts as evidence that Satoshi has indeed forsaken them, exactly as written in 2013-2015 scripture.

By mid 2015, nothing historical could any longer predict the future, until finally the great 2015-2017 bull run took off on its own fundamental and speculative merits, charting brand new territory, all the way from $200 to $20,000.

Not until we break free of the soothsaying charters comparing the future to the past, will present-day fundamental analysis and actual technical development once again take control of the market.

Whether it takes a dump to $4k or a break for $8k to finally shake free of these medieval shackles is anybody's guess, but charters and manipulators definitely seem to be winning the holy war at the moment.

It really boggles the mind that even the monumental Mt Gox civil rehabilitation announcement, the SEC declaring Bitcoin as not a security, and lightning network mainnet achievements are having nary an effect on this bear market.

We are truly a superstitious lot, despite all evidence to the contrary.

Garph of most all legit exchanges combined.

WHy? Does:

The bid [in fiat, red] increases during the bubble (easy), and then stay about the same during the pop?

The ask [in fiat, blue] slowly falls?

[regent4]

Lining up as per previous?

Nothing new for me. I am a university professor teaching algebra (also cryptography and blockchain technology in recent years) so I have to solve new problems every day. In my country the salaries are really low and the banks are robbers, so I invested all my savings in bitcoin. My goals are two - to buy a house and to donate to children in need. Anyway, neither can happen now, so for a comfort I bought an electric guitar and I am learning many new songs every day. Rock and roll baby! Are you ready for rock?

[mindrust]

Brainwashed.

Who is your employer? Roger, Jihan or Brian?

Lol. You obviously didn’t read the “Satoshi not Core” link. I don’t work for scammers. Nor do I work for Core scammers. Yet I repeat myself.

I hope you aren’t under some illusion that BCH is Satoshi’s immutable protocol.

Nope. I ve read it and as I see you are just a different attacker who is trying to fork another altcoin from btc without any segwit in it. That's retarded because it already exists, bcash.

Since bcash is a failed coup and will never ever succeed, i guess this is Roger&Jihan's next plan.

A direct attack coming from miners.

You know who else described a similar story not so long ago? Jbreher, another bcash shill.

More potential upside on the short term scale. #dyor 

Feels like the panic is fading. Moral is improving.

That ichimoku cloud looks promising. Haven't seen a green one for a while.

I can not think of anything less interesting. Or less relevant to our interests.

[Ibian]

Alright look guys. This whole bcash shill thing needs to stop. It has become an automatic reaction for some of you. Kind of like how SJWs call everyone nazis.

There is a simple test for these things. If you can't say something positive about your opponents, then you are the ideologue. Let's have a group exercise this morning. Say something nice about bcashers.
