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

My gf sells on localbitcoins.

The past couple of days she's had some big sales requested.

I told her to ignore them.



Not taking the chance of the price shooting back up right after she's done a sale.

Yeah selling right now doesn't make much sens unless you need cash.

I don't believe for one second that price will rise back on 8k or 10k before at least months and probably years, but selling  now is a risky move. Price can still stabilize back to 6.5k whenever happens...

did you before thought the price to be 19k-ish when it was about 3K-ish.....
probably nobody thought it then ......

If you’re not a Bitcoin Maximalist, you have not done enough research.

What will be the future of those coins if miners gonna capitulate anyway? If they do.

This shitshow has given us a new opportunity to correctly name the forks.
Previously, we have been unable to drop the Bitcoin part of their names, because it simply left 'cash' which is of course ambiguous.

I guess its obvious but, we can now correctly relegate them to the proper Altcoin categorisation by using:

ABC Cash
SV Cash

And retire bcash name? Nuh...

It's bcashABC and bcashSV.

Nobody likes to burn money, can't see that this will be going on for too long. And based on TA on this forum, we won't be seeing the price rising any time soon, at least not to mine them in a profitable way. Interesting to see how it plays out, or has it played out already, dead from the start

I still think for BABC:  BABy Cash. Stop the dying!

ABC used a centralized checkpoint to prevent re org. Pro ABC Exchanges were allegedly in on it.
 

It doesn't really matter either way. ABC wouldn't have accepted SV blocks even without the checkpoint, so the narrative that it's somehow "cheating" makes no sense, and the checkpoint also doesn't prevent any likely attacks, so it's pointless centralization. These guys still haven't figured out how consensus systems work...

In other odd tangentially related news:

Julian Assange has been charged, prosecutors reveal inadvertently in court filing

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has been charged under seal, prosecutors inadvertently revealed in a recently unsealed court filing — a development that could significantly advance the probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election and have major implications for those who publish government secrets.

The disclosure came in a filing in a case unrelated to Assange. Assistant U.S. Attorney Kellen S. Dwyer, urging a judge to keep the matter sealed, wrote that “due to the sophistication of the defendant and the publicity surrounding the case, no other procedure is likely to keep confidential the fact that Assange has been charged.” Later, Dwyer wrote the charges would “need to remain sealed until Assange is arrested.”

TLDW: We're going to $4,000-$4,500

pretty much

[JimboToronto]

Good morning Bitcoinland.

We seem to have leveled off after the dip a couple of days ago... currently $5636USD/$7407CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

Could be going sideways for a bit. Then again, the honey badger just might come out of hibernation at any time. Sometimes any little spark of news or FUD can be enough for the market movers to send it shooting up or down again.

I think they're still in accumulation mode and this $800 discount is serving them well. Too bad for the traders and others trying to make a quick buck. Holders and other long-term investors don't give a rat's ass about this minor crap. Anyone who has been buying the dips for years and only selling as necessary will still be earning a fiat profit any time they do have to sell.

All the whining and capitulation gives me heart though. Maybe we're getting closer to real full-market capitulation, turning around and properly heading back up again. More likely, it's more sideways for a while.

Honestly, this type of TA is still complete shit, especially in a drawn out bear market for Bitcoin.

You wanna know why? Because the float is thin as shit right now, nothing but sideways wash trading going on for months. There are no major traders working, and plenty of long stops. So right now, *anyone* with any significant amount of bitcoin can sell off and move this market down significantly any time they want. And without buyers ready to jump back in and push things back up, the market will stay down at the new level.

TA will never account for sudden shocks like that.

No chance. We’re at the bottom now. I’m buying right now and will keep buying all the way back to $6,500.
