S&P 500 futures hitting all time highs again tonight.

This makes sense bc as we all know the supply of global stocks is cutting in half in 84 days.

Oh wait, thats us. 

84 days to the Halvening and all is well.

In the U.S., quarantine is the most extreme use of government power over people who have committed no crime. As a legal matter, the U.S. Supreme Court recognized a seemingly unlimited local power to quarantine as early as 1824, in the case Gibbons v. Ogden. It reaffirmed this power in 1900, noting that “from an early day the power of the States to enact and enforce quarantine laws for the safety and the protection of the health of their inhabitants … is beyond question.”

America’s defense against epidemics is divided among 2,684 state, local, and tribal public-health departments. Each one is responsible for monitoring people within its jurisdiction, imposing isolation or quarantine as needed. CDC officials are “preparing as if [the new coronavirus] is the next pandemic,” but in reality, the laboring oar falls to state and local health departments.

The way up is as volatile as the way down. We are Pavlov’s dogs being trained by the whales to think that after each up there will be a down, to try and separate yourself from your precious.

Don’t be stupid, close that XBT-USD ticker and enjoy your day. It is really that easy/hard.

Hmm someone was working on this all along.

Note that it's still pretty un-anonymous, there being so few of us.

Not sure about the codes but... we can ask some respected and well-known WO member (El Duderino? LFC? Bawb?) a favor to arrange a courier to collect the gifts and then forward them to us. This way the guy won't even know where the choc is going to...      

At first, i thought: Good idea! And merited it.
The second thoughts were more about repackaging the chocolate asap because of hidden geotracking electronics.
Call me paranoid, but i was careless with my OpSec in the past and i have learned some things from that.
On the other hand, i would have been called paranoid too, for claiming that the CIA is behind major established cryptography hardware companies in the 90s

I'm sure we can get them scanned for bugs?

Masterluc updated his TA today and he changed it a litte bit.

More BS from Masterluc?

Yeah. I think we're going sideways in 9000-10000 range for a while.

Short-lived dips to 8xxx are possible, but not very likely, and irrelevant anyway.

Predicting 6xxx just before golden cross and so close to halving is simply crazy.

"Alex Jones has capitulated. After 10 years of watching the #Bitcoin bubble inflate, at $10,000 per coin he thinks now's the time to urge his listeners to buy. This is how manias end. Greed overwhelms reason as people once too sensible to buy join the party just as it's ending."

  Peter is going to have it rough the next few years as we soar to 100k and beyond.

Immediately after picking them up. The dude must not be tracked.

I agree masterluc's lost his charm - but I also think he never had any special touch for short term to begin with.

For those who aren't up to date, here's a collection of all his latest posts.

Everyone is shouting: halving, halving. And in the comments under my posts, they rave about them. So, here's a fresh look. I have the audacity to say that the halving, as a scalar event, does not affect the price chart at all. I experienced and observed two previous halvings. Generally no substance. Halving points fall into completely random places of different trends. And they do not cause anything, not even the slightest reaction of the market, despite the general excitement and fundamental nature of the event.

Feb 11
You know, this is probably a phenomenon, OK. But there is an explanation. Halving is the nature of Bitcoin, a metaphysical phenomenon that creates its essence and the manifestation of which cannot be found on the surface. Halving is manifested in the fact that bitcoin is growing for a long time. And in the spring you will not see anything special.

Feb 13
I was surprised by the reaction to my last short-term forecast. Surprised by the dissatisfied bull roar And the overestimated bull expectations only gave me even more confidence in their rightness.

Feb 17
So, if my idea is correct, then I see these two options.
Red is a smaller triangle with the next bottom at 7500.
Blue is a larger triangle, support is in the weekly ma200 area and the bottom is in the region of 6000, but no less than the previous bottom of 3200.
Both triangles are quite bullish in the long term.


Feb 17
Oh yes. I prefer the blue version. It looks more ergonomic) And it fits the timings.
I repeat once again, I deny halving as an event that affects the price in principle. It is wired into the bullish nature of Bitcoin and you can already see it, looking at the whole chart from 2010 to 2020. Specifically, on the day of halving, you will not see anything unusual,

I see we broke the downward channel  
Due to CME or rumors about Mnuchin (how do you spell that name correctly? Looks like a typo...) is about to downregulate BTC markets. If so, "USDchain" seems to be in the making or at least seriously considered by the minister of finance?

Let's #hodl this out again

Number go down. Makes me want to experiment with alcoholism again.

Don't even try. Calm yours down with some weed. You will be too lazy to panic 
Alcohodl just makes you over-emotional, triggering a premature sell.

Omg I thought we were at 7k already after reading this. 9.5k isn't free falling it's nothingburger 

[Bitcoinaire]

We're in a bull market. Buy the dips. You're welcome.

Let's hope that the 200 MA Daily holding it up

That's not true! Alcohol is fine as long as you make sure to drink enough to see double figures, so that price looks something like 95'950'000. Though this could cause some overexcitement leading to want to sell as you say. Best to stop drinking when only some numbers start to appear doubled.

Otherwise any drug keeping you busy enough no to want to check prices for an hour or two will do just fine. For example a nice dose of benzodiazepine could make you wake up on Thursday and getting excited about price being at 8900 as you only remember when you last checked it was like 3500..

Someone on the italian board made the following statement:
 

Mentre scrivo c'è un leggero recupero, molto "telefonato" come si dice in gergo, ovvero molto scontato... a cui potrebbe far seguito un altrettanto scalino - due... - al ribasso a partire dalle 10:00 / 13:00 ora di Roma, per accentuarsi intorno alle 15:00.

Loose translation provided by Google translate:

As I write there is a slight recovery, "well anticipated" as they say in jargon, that is very obvious ... which could be followed by an equally step - two ... - downwards starting from 10:00/13:00 Rome time, to accentuate around 15:00.

What is this sorcery?

I am sure he's not the bloke responsible for this:
