Tickling just over $8000 now and waiting for this bull run to really take off. Meanwhile will check on LTC since everybody is talking about it this morning and not certain why.  A big move in the chicken's often been seen as a precursor to one in the honey badger.

https://twitter.com/btcking555/status/1131826682447507456our insider took screenshot off Jihan’s laptop TSMC 7 nm yields are catastrophic 47% Considering the wafer costs this is a financial disaster! Also TSMC capacity is limited and Bitmain allocated only 9,5k wafers for entire 2019. Compare that to 20k per month in 2017 😭 karma for Jihan? also - bit risky for the insider? narrows down the suspects...

BTC prices are the main cause of movements in the altcoin market, and it makes sense to say that its mother of all crytpo. Although, if you look closer, Honey Badger is claimed as "world's most fearless animal". This does not apply to altcoins, rather BTC should be the Honey Badger.

The btc addr of that QR code ....is not a segwit address...  yet, new generation chooses btc! I'm under the sneaking suspicion that it's a Photoshop as a way to get people online to say, "Awww cool I'll toss en a couple bucks" and some dweeb makes out with a few hundred and these kids have their pic circulated. But that's just the pessimistic side of me in the crypto town full of scam artist. Here the address: https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/address/1BGrGse1QaPQLPovUm84yHZS6kt7QHTsJqNo Segwit address, probabl to maximise compatibility with legacy customer wallets. Otherwise well managed UTXO set. The girls must use quite a sophisticated wallet. You can check yourself the address history. They are definitely in the green with that Kiosk.

The price is about $3k higher than it should be at this part of the cycle. We are already higher than what the December 2019 peak should be. It’s all gravy.  Am I the only one kind of wishing their lives away until a point in the future, probably late 2021 or something? No, I've got kind of a low key depression going on. I should be enjoying every moment of life, but I feel like I'm just going through the motions every day and just trying to "survive" until I can retire within 2-3 years, hopefully. It makes me wish I was in a coma for three years. ATM, I'd probably be happier if I never heard of bitcoin. Weird situation  And I feel bad for feeling bad about this. We need a fucking therapist in this thread. I don't know your personal situation in real life but here is absolutely no reason to be stressed at the moment. This new bull-run has started earlier than we all expected, which is good news to reach your retirement goal even faster. All metrics across the boards showing bullish signs. Development and adoption looks very solid. Think what you will do when you reached retirement fase. We all should be very grateful sitting in this golden position, the profits we make are life changing. Billions of people will not have this opportunity. Relax and start planning to make your dreams come true. Financial freedom at the horizon is imo already a certain outcome. Exactly!! 2 years from now yes we will be much richer but soon after that bear market will start. I like this point in time way better and all the sweet moments that will happen until 2 years from now. Rather then fast forwarding this 2 years I would fast forward year 2021 into 2023. But I also suspect this halving will be last with big impact on Bitcoins price.

https://www.ft.com/content/0207778c-7d62-11e9-81d2-f785092ab560Facebook held talks with Winklevoss twins over new currencyFacebook’s vaulting ambition to create a new global digital currency has led it to hold talks with some of America’s largest trading houses and cryptocurrency exchanges, including one founded by Mark Zuckerberg’s sworn enemies — the Winklevoss twins.
A secretive unit of the social media company has been working for more than a year to create a currency that its 2bn users can use to send money to each other, and to buy things not just on Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp but across the internet and in the real world.
“Payments is one of the areas where we have an opportunity to make it a lot easier. I believe it should be as easy to send money to someone as it is to send a photo,” said Mr Zuckerberg, Facebook’s founder, at the company’s developer conference at the end of April. https://markets.businessinsider.com/currencies/news/facebook-and-winklevoss-twins-in-talks-for-cryptocurrency-project-2019-5-1028228824

I’m happy to stay in the $8,000’s for a few months if needs be. I don’t want an unsustainable pump to near $10,000 if we’re going to collapse. Consolidation for long periods is good. We were in the $3000’s for ages, it gave people confidence to buy before we moved up again. I wouldn’t be sad to stay in the $8,000’s for the rest of 2019 because it’s natural the price will boom after the halving. What will be, will be though.

This extended pause and consolidation seems to be very bullish for BTC. I expect the BTC price to come back down significantly one more time to less than $7150 before the end of the month, and possibly $6900 within the next 3 days which should bring the long/short ratio down to an acceptable 1.15 (or below) so bull move can blast off to $10,000+:

It’s possible to come down to the lower trendline support on my chart above at ~$6100, but that seems MUCH less likely. Anything lower than that before moving higher seems very, very unlikely, but anything is possible.

A trader losing 100% of the times is precious as much as one hitting right 100% of the times. You just need a friend taking a position opposite your view, but triple the size.

Better stop, think about your mistakes and keep studying I personally don't do a lot of tradings I prefer to buy, hold for some days, and them I sell for a better price, wait for price descrease, and repeat the process It's easier and less stress for me, and it takes me less time If you really want to earn money trading, look for bots

Well, I may be wrong but was not TSMC also messed up on the first batch wafers back in the day with ButterFly Labs and Sia-Tech Obelisks recently and now this? Seems to me TSMC have a 'habit' (3 for 3) of messing up batch ones badly on wafers/chips and overpromising speed/results and are usually late as hell to boot. Again, I could be wrong, but seems I've seen this song before. Feel free to correct me, this is just off the top of my head from 2013 onward. brad
