Good thing that other whiny thread is locked. Delete Wall Observer? Ridiculous. It got so much attention (and merit) because it was ridiculous. Not good. Maybe we should consider getting rid of the merit system altogether. It's just a silly little popularity contest. Almost as bad as having a "like" button. Are people that starved for attention? It's like posting selfies or Tiktok videos. Look at me. Look at me. I'm surprised how an unimportant, virtual entity like merit is dividing adult people so much. I suggest that the first rule of merit should be that those who complain about not getting any, should not get any. Same for those who try to impose on others their own notions of what a “fair” distribution should be. Gappie said it best. Wall observer is where real bitcoiners hang out. Or Development & Technology. ;-) If you don't like it, there are lots of other threads. Or the rest of the Internet. —Or (gasp!) this thing that I heard about, which is called “real life”. [ostensibly] adult people FTFY.
Time to head back up. Go Bitcoin go.

Oh, an article from “the land of the free”: Just like suicide is a sure means to prevent disease before it happens. It is scientifically proven to prevent 100.0% of cancer, AIDS, Ebola, and even (zomg!) coronavirus. Cf. “God will know his own.” Edit with financial advice: Being totally impoverished prevents financial losses.

Seeming correlation with the stonks are most disturbing but i guess expected. Speculators gonna speculate. It's going to take some blood to decouple from
Well it's kinda weird, because I've also seen some movements that correlate with PMs too. I have no idea what those bot algos are smoking.

https://twitter.com/stoolpresidente/status/1301884467733241859Ha ha ha, the idiot was down $500K as of this morning, probably even more by now. And to think he was chiding the bitcoin market over his paltry $25K loss. What a fkn loser. Also, you can clearly see what a shill he is for the stonk market.

Is it really happening, or just bots run wild? I, for one, fervently hope that Bitcoin’s real purchase power follows that of gold if when the bottom falls from beneath everything else, including fiat currencies. USD/EUR are STRONG SELL.

Usually a good indicator that the bottom is in & the laggards are chasing profits that don’t exist now. The majority always arrive at the end of a storm but then the sun comes out & they look stupid, all kitted out in wellies & rain coats. Told ya! $10,5xx now, hopefully the shit show is over. is that bitcoin? Or the drummer from Def Leppard? It’s mindrust

I'm surprised how an unimportant, virtual entity like merit is dividing adult people so much. All is well. Some are just bored out or suffer from a nasty, over-controlling ego. Swaystar should chill the fuck down, problem solved.
I wish there was a reference button for what post you used to put someone on ignore as I'd like to go back and see what post I decided to ignore him. Likely impossible to implement afterwards, but if posts would be non-deletable by authors, it would be possible for future ignores through some minor changes to the forum software. There will be a need for one or two additional columns in the database table that holds the ignore list entries, plus edits in most of the hooks/triggers and procedures which are altering this table. As an alternative, the forum software could open a dialog to enter some text when ignoring a user, for memorizing reason(s). You could simply place a link to the regarding post or just the thread- and post-ID, along with some explaining words. If the original post got deleted, you have a chance to remind yourself why you put a user on ignore. Would be a simple interface and a joined database table, only adding and removing users from the ignore list, as well as deleting a user should affect this one.

Exactly what I would like - add a note to the ignore addition

we will climb back to $11k soonish. and then it is decision time. we will either go through this barrier and all is good or we will get rejected. if we get rejected we will see 9k and in worst case 8k, but that is the very bearish case. I want to accumulate more, that is why I am even considering those scenarios..

Worst case $8k? Have you even confirmed your math and science facts? We will be hitting $3k again for certain. Everyone's confirmed it.

If you haven't done it yet, then you might still think bitcoin can sustain prices above $10k and won't go to $3k again.

Don't forget the sources.

confirmed science Only fools claim scientific knowledge of the future in such matters. An empirical scientific question: How often has your “scientific” crystal ball produced correct predictions in the past, versus incorrect predictions?

~ How about you post the research paper on why Bitcoin can't go above 10k? Don't forget the sources. He’s too busy enjoying all the wealth that he has gained by the magic of “ strongly short with high leverage”.
Edit: For my whole life, I have been mathematically certain that the U.S. dollar will crash. I am still so certain. I now pause to wonder where I would be, if I had entered leveraged shorts of the dollar 20 years ago. Nowhere good, I think. Somebody is going to get hurt this way.
