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

[jbreher]

Well it ain't Bitcoin, but it is at least of some academic interest:

The Electric Coin Company (you know - Zooko's Zcash guys) have found a way to eliminate the trusted setup vector. Well, if the research stands up to scrutiny, anyhoo.

I'm just glad I sold all of my bitcoin and bought all rights to the Vegeta 9000 meme.

You mean you did not lose it all in an unfortunate seasteading accident?

dude, be kind to Elwar

the world needs people like him

No slight intended. If Elwar took offense, I guess I need to recalibrate my sarcastometer.

I have a strong feeling the Bitwise ETF is gonna be approved before Sunday

What would that mean if approved?

Unlikely to be approved mic but if it is then expect a significant pump. It just provides people with a safe platform to buy. It would bring confidence to the market & average joe’s can buy through their tool.

And as far as BSV is concerned, well let's not. Its been proven an outright scam by this point and there's nothing left to be said.

Defend your statement. In what way is BSV -- the blockchain, the payment system, and the protocol -- a scam?

Don't try to make this an argument of semantics when you know full well what I'm referring to. That's weak sauce.

Get real. I am merely responding to your literal fucking words. If you don't mean to imply that BSV itself is a scam, then don't say "as far as BSV is concerned, well let's not. Its been proven an outright scam". Because that would be lying, you conniving bastard. And lying is scammy behavior. Should we all tag you now?

Defend your statement. Or retract it. Any other path forward for you would be dishonorable.

I doubt Elwar took offense. But if he did, and stopped posting here, how would we know he didn't lose it all in an unfortunate seasteading accident?

It's curious, due to its low correlation, Bitcoin can substantially increase the portfolio with traditional assets.

We wouldn't. Losing it all is just one of the potential dangers of being within a 12,000 mile radius of any seastead.

CNBC report on the Bitwise ETF:

I seriously doubt that it will be approved. Nothing has changed with the market since the other denials.

But when has cnbc ever been right in their predictions on what bitcoin will do?
People here have said over the years to always bet on the opposite of whatever their news speculators ever has to say about what will bitcoin do in the markets.

They presented it too much as the true Bitcoin, creating confusion. Also people involved are generally shady with low ethics.
Its obviously meant to enrich the first BSV adopters.

Also cmon, Satoshi’s Vision implies BTC is not what satoshi envisioned which is just plain wrong and unethical to build a marketing campaign on.

Bit sad we have to explain this to you, one would expect more comprehension from someone who has been involved for a long time.

One can debate the term scam. At least it's a very unhealthy distraction from BTC, but this is true for any fork.

The CNBC report was just for some background material. They don't know their asses from their elbows when it comes to Bitcoin.

But my judgement is that it will not be approved and that's ok. We don't need an ETF for the coming raging bull market.

We probably need one for the raging bull after that though.

Buulllllsshhheeeet. 


I thought you were pulling my leg and wasted 20 minutes looking for rude gifs. 

And then I thought to actually check my profile.   Dammmm. 

I guess I can sit at the big boys table now. 

I said as much just a couple days ago - "the last merit I can award to nonlegendary Hairy".
Long overdue if you ask me.
GRATZ!

Thanks man.  But how did you know ?

[LUCKMCFLY]

When you look at the volume profile, you can see that there is a lot of shopping interest in the order of $ 10K to $ 11.6K.

The road looks very promising, the interest lies very little towards lower levels.

I hope you're right. If so I might raise my target.
