Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[Hueristic]

You really are a dick sometimes.

Tell us what you really mean.

I'm not sure what is going on ATM. Something weird is afoot.

Bitcoin is crashing. We're all going to die. Time to start acquiring a taste for canned dog food. Practice this phrase: "do you want fries with that?".

I almost looked...

You made me look.

AAndd you saved me.

Long read but the essence to me is: what's good for gold will be good for Bitcoin as well.

Since derivatives I can see this as being entirely possible as they are both now more or less being treated similar by the same class of people.

BTW that link mentions nothing of bitcoin is is far too long so I just started skimming it and it looked like a boiler plate buy gold the sky is falling hit piece to me.

If Henry Ford was alive I'd wrap him in plastic and throw him at your head.

I have no idea what this means but I concur and really wanna see it!

I see /ignored roach posts. Bullish.

Good morning BTCland.

Still flat as a pancake... currently $6280USD/$8188CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

Yawn.

A little bit of math:

If you bought Ripple for $ 1000 in January, now you would have $ 79.

If you bought Bud Light for $ 1000 in January, drank all the beer and passed the bottles, now you would have $ 79. 

Ripple? Bud Light? Yuck.

The former is a hangover waiting to happen and the latter is watery swill.

I'll stick to full-strength beer thanks. I don't pay alcohol tax on water.

I'm not sure even Bob could pass the bottles, ....

maybe partially a long neck...

As a German, both those offend me highly.

Yeah, they're pretty gross.

I don't mind a good German lager but what I really love is a full-bodied Irish-style dry stout.

Luckily there's one brewed right here in Ontario using local water so it's easy on my system. It's brewed to 5% alc/vol which is a little lighter than in some countries but standard for here so it's what I'm accustomed to.



Cheers.

This pattern seems reasonable to me, although I would hope 2021 would have higher prices than they predict. Next year sub $3k most likely. My prediction is based on the last halvings, not sure what those who expect the bull to pick up later this year are doing other than hoping.

One should be mindful that the effect of the halving halves each time. We're going from a thud to a tinkle. When the reward is fractions of a bitcoin, who thinks the halving will still be driving price?

Actually if you drank $1000 of german beer you would have more. Because 9 (dollar) cents a bottle when you return it (pfand).

And it usually costs no more than 80 euro cents per bottle, so lets say an expensive beer is 1 dollar each.

Thats 1000 beers with a pfand return of 90 dollars Making you richer than the guy who bought ripple.

I love guinness, but never out of a bottle. The only way its meant to be drunk is draught from a keg. Or at least a can with one of those little balls.

Cheers.

That's an interesting observation I never considered.

Thinking about it....

Hodlers friendly beer: Less than $3 for 12 cans pack.

I will tell you the very same thing I tell new coiners who become interested in altcoins: There's a reason why it's so cheap.

The effect of halving does not halve when you count fiat.
A miner still starts getting 50% of btc measured in $$, unless the price react accordingly.
Therefore, the effect is the same, unless the number of minable tx (or their cost) dramatically increases.

As of this moment mining at a typical 10c/kwh is already unprofitable on S9 (Bitmain), but still somewhat profitable using newer equipment (M10). This is without even counting the equipment cost.

For the industrial sites with the electrical cost at 3-5c/kwh the breakeven would come once difficulty increases 2-3 times, which should be in 3-4 mo or so, maybe even earlier.

No beers in here this evening 

Guess guess whats this one

Yeah, probably more than ONE reason..... but it has profited me awesomely if I consider part of the savings (literally thousands of $ for the last few years) indirectly went to Bitcoin. Also the taste is good or even better than many other "regular" beers so for daily (massive) consumption I find it perfect.


As I said, it's just a (poor) "hodlers friendly" beer... and I don't think it's going to kill me any faster than other "better" beers.
