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

[Searing]

the catch is either BTC is going to eventually come back ..even if only at 5% or 10% a year as more a 'normal' investment (ie sideways like gold maybe even)

or we are toast...I mean kaput...an centralized coins take up the void in the future and 'banker's rule' again

So I HODL and 'attic mine" (sell crap in the attic on eBay I normally would die with anyway ...and xfer to BTC)

home mining is dead...I have no 'balls' for big equipment and data hall purchases anymore (crypto shell-shocked I am, don't ya know)

ASSUMING that these BTC prices are LOW...the above makes a 'world of sense' especially if BTC goes back above 10k someday...I will look like a genius...

my alternate reality is below:

if I stop believing that, I shall then go to my backup plan of 'panicking like a 4-year-old being sent so pre-school on the bus' and SELL, SELL, SELL...trampling

women, children, and puppies on my way to abandoning ship.. Feels like for the last 4 months I've been re-arranging the deck chairs on the Titanic anyway,

with this sideways price current...figures, there might be an Iceberg, just to 'liven up my life'

I suspect anything below 4k BTC is my 'snapping point' Actually to be clear anything below 4k IS my 'freak out' point....I'd dump 1/2 my stash for sure then.

(we who run away also serve humanity...and who step up to repopulate the tribe when all the 'hero's die'...hey....it's an angle)

IF all crypto goes tulips...I have a GOT (go to hell plan) to become a 'minimalist' and get myself one of those 'tiny homes' and live with a lot less...

(seems prudent in that before BTC and crypto ..that was pretty much likely going to be my previous crypto lifestyle...so hell, it will be one big circle then...embrace the

poverty)

Complete speculation but...

I believe that Craig Wright signed a very large monetary deal with some investors after giving them the impression that he was Satoshi and that he could not release his BTC until 2020.

Whatever deal this is, he is desperate to get as many bitcoins as he can before then. He tried to make BCH the "real bitcoin" but that didn't work...so now just make up some fear about Segwit the he will "reveal in 2019" to drive down the price so he can get as many coins as possible to fulfill his part of the deal. Looks like he needs the price to drop to around $1k to be able to pull that off. Not going to happen.

There is no FUD on segwit, the threat is real. Perhaps do some reading on the subject?

Not back to this topic? 

Remember anunymint had a hard-on for this baloney topic, and such topic played here for at least a couple of weeks?

We've seen the topic here, and you want to play around with that mostly nonsense FUD spreading topic some more?

The likelihood of the chain reverting to a pre-segwit state is the same as the likelihood of a POW change.  Not going to happen.   Unlike Bcash, we the people, run full validation nodes, that include segwit.

Go ahead and fork with “anyone can spend” and see how far you get.  UASF showed the economic strength of the users.

Hairy


log scale my man

that is all

?  It is log.  Just Y axis compressed in this view

how far back are you going?  $2  ??

[HairyMaclairy]

Yes long term trend line back to $2, anchored in the cryptowinter.

It is unlikely that he is part of the Satoshi Group...as it is known...lying and scrambling to cover your megalomanic lies/bets would be a logical way to try

and FUDGE your way into fame or in his case infamy... whatever works to stoke the 'megalomania' don't  ya know But again him being part of a Satoshi group

1 out of 20. Him actually coming up with and being Satoshi on his own 1 in 100,000. IMHO. Whatever I got to admit Craig Wright never can seem to get past his

own ego or compromise on any topic of any kind...if he can have a good spat and mouth off..so again IMHO, megalomania is his curse indeed...

Whoa......??.....

That's pretty hardball, there.  ...??...za!!!

European Central Bank Exec Calls Bitcoin the 'Evil Spawn of the Financial Crisis'

Difficult state, moment of doubt. Yet, bitcoin can elicit passionate smearing from TPTB.

Bullish.

Yes

.... umm, there's going to be bad days, there's going to be dark days, but you gotta embrace it, because that pain is what makes you stronger.... success is not measured on the days the sun shines and your coins are mooning.....success is measured on the dark, stormy, cloudy days, and if you can't absorb failure, you're never gonna make it. Constantly I'll hear, you bought bitcoin on the top, LOL, you hold only shitcoins, you're gonna get REKT, LOL. It gets to you man, after a while. And people will say, oh, but it's easy money $$, just buy low and sell high. Well, the thing about that is, if it was that easy, everybody would be rich........

For a good (?) time, revisit all the Wired brown-nosing of CSW in the last few years. Past performance, blah, blah.

I wonder what their next piece will say.

Think.

If segwit has a fatal flaw then how has bitcoin survived for a year?  It has a 100B jackpot for the first person to crack it.  Even if they could only get 1/2 a % they'd be set for life.

Where's the hack?

TL;DR plz?

If a malicious actor were to gain control of 51%+ of the network hash power, he could change the network rules, rescind segwit, and take all the coins that were in segwit addresses.

Of course, there's a significant chance no one would use the compromised network except the attacker, which would make the whole thing moot.

SV Cash catching up fast to ABC Cash

Thank god that I don't currently have any skin in that game. I wonder what happened. Did Ver run out of the resources he was willing to spend on this pissing contest?

[HairyMaclairy]

Looks like Craig stopped redirecting hash power from his mining pool to BCH and sent it back to BTC.

SV will pump.  ABC will drop.  

Roger will bring the hash power back to ABC. 

ABC will pump. SV will drop.

Rinse.  Repeat.  Pump.   Dump.

[ivomm]

1 year ago Ver, Wu and Craig were dumping all their Bitcoins for bcash buying at 900$ to 3000$. Now all their money are gone forever! bcash is dead and these crooks are poor again! There is God! I have only one more request to God: Let Bitcoin rise to new ATH's while these crooks are agonizing with losses as heavy as this forever!

They are cycling some shits, miners are not happy with it.
