Volume is spiking fast, with minimal volatility. We know what that means.  This "we" scratches head. What does it mean? I don't even understand how can something "spike fast" with "minimal volatility". Please explain. |

Seems perfectly fair to me.
It's the usual thing as ever.... There are three classes of people: those who see. Those who see when they are shown. Those who do not see.

What was your overall BTC investment strategy? Did you dollar cost average to accumulate? Did you make some sell mistakes? Did you have some sell successes - especially since we had such an outrageous run that first went about 20x from $250 to $5k - and then another 4x from there - before coming back down.
I have a few people that I got into bitcoin - at least I was a kind of catalyst to their introduction and largely attempting to get them to accumulate and to HODL, yet peeps certainly have minds of their own (and I encourage that too), there were a few people who got some decent profits and got out, but only the rare one largely held through and was lucky enough to take decent profits in the $14k range - while still holding a vast majority of the original stash - I mean withdrew more than 4x of the original principle, and still retains "house money BTC" that is valued around 9x of the original principle. Surely some luck in that but such luck is surely facilitated when an asset (like bitcoin) has performed so well and really remains in a price territory that is more than 20x of its 2015 "stability" point (that was in the mid $200s for a vast majority of the year).
I started mining bitcoins at the end of 2013 and continued to do this for almost a year. But then I did not have large resources and I lost some bitcoins when my hard drive burned. I also took out a part of the money in dollars, but I saved part of the money in Bitcon. In the fall of 2014, I abandoned my work with Bitcoin. And I returned to this market only in 2016. Also, the end of 2017 would not be very successful for me, I invested part of the money in various shitcoin and ico Sometimes it takes some bad experiences and rough experiences in order to trigger various kinds of learning in the form of active participation, and sometimes there is luck too. Being involved and attempting to learn from experiences (both good and bad) does seem to increase chances that you will be in the right place at the right time in the future. You know the old saying that luck equals the point in which preparation meets opportunity? Seems to me that some of your past experiences are going to help you in the preparation arena, so long as you continue to strive to learn not to be too greedy and continue to tweak your system(s) and strategies along the way. |

I think it means investors base their trading on impeccable logic. You know, China bans bitcoin, price dips, North Korea buying bitcoin, price goes up. So it could mean BTC goes to ATL. Or it could mean BTC goes to ATH. I'm down for that.  |

On selected exchanges that could be the case ... until such exchanges are locked and shut down eventually. Lots FUD and much turnoil in the broader market then. So it’s not an ideal scenario. But free markets have a tendency to sniff out bullshit in the end. Tether is not done yet. |

I want to be part of the hat thing, not that I understand what it is. Someone said they would eat a hat now everyone has hats. |

I thought that Hairybeary was eating the hat, but I cannot recall the terms upon which he eats such hat. By the way, goldkingcoiner, it seems that you would facilitate the creativity of xhomerx10 if you would provide him with some kind of image.. unless xhomerx is artistically inspired by "blank slate" dynamics? |

That (Dig Bicks) is nonsense. How much would have cost 1 million BTC right after satoshi *supposedly* mined them? Maybe a few thousands? That would be the advantage he got even if he had premined them.... which he didn't btw. Not even that. When New Liberty opened in October 2009, exchange rate was 0.00076 USD/1 BTC. Satoshi's stack was a few hundred at most. |

If any of you guys are interested in a tether discussion. yup i heard this one and the issue is all over youtube reviews about the controversy and i believe that they are creating tether out of thin air and they used it to buy bitcoin and dumping the bitcoin back to us, thats exactly what happend after the bull run last December we screwed up, since they cannot bring down btc they create altcoin itself to bring it down and people are slowly recognizing this and eventually tether will collapse just like bitconnect become zero, so be carefull on tether stay away from it!
Uh, I don't think you get it. Tether was used to pump bitcoin and the alts last year, and the fear is that the billions of dollars of usdt was unbacked. This would make last year's pump entirely artificial. This is way bigger for crypto's image than what you are making it out to be. What you don't get is this doesn't matter. Even if it was an artificial pump it is being held up for months now without any artificial parachute and therefore is at market value by definition. |
