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

[infofront]

At $15K+, I might now be motivated to emerge from my long slumber. Lock and load the memes and shitposts!

I'm disconcerted by the election results, but hookers and blow don't care who the president is. If the price of BTC gets high enough, I won't either

How long until 1 BTC = 1 Lambo

[JimboToronto]

Lawl. What a lame dump attempt.

Someone sold their coins way too cheaply.

Someone else got to buy the short-lived dip.

Holders sit back amused.  

[suchmoon]

This is confusing. I open the unmentionable exchange and see Bitcoin > $15k and you're all talking about a dump. There is no dump. There is one big months-long pump going on.

[yslyv]

kinda weak signs from bears. good to see them not enough strong.
whoever shorted around 13k 14k lost so much money.  Bitcoin is still stays as the king.

Bank of England extends QE program by £150 billion

The Bank of England on Thursday decided to extend the size of its bond purchase program by £150 billion as it warned output would fall in the fourth quarter amid the lockdown that starts in England today.

The unanimous Bank of England decision kept interest rates at 0.1%, and the extension of its quantitative easing program brings the size of its government bond purchase program to £875 billion.

[JimboToronto]

Geez another lame attempt to knock it down and another immediate bounce back over $15k.

Hope they're enjoying losing money.

After all the speculation, finally we know where the coins were moved. To the Justice Department's wallet.

I can't help but wonder, how do they work at the Justice Department: do they use a cold wallet, or a Ledger, or do they have a Coinbase account under the name of "United States of America Justice Department"?

More like employees 'lose' it in a boating accident, and take early retirement.

In Antwerp they caught the biggest ever pure cocaïne load WW.... (the biggest ever)

Belgium busts big cocaine ring that relied on corrupt police

Would the seized crypto have anything to do with the Belgian cocaine bust? Perfectly possible, if this was an international collaboration.

I wonder how they got the key if they didn't get it at the time of the bust.

This kind of thing would have caused the price to crash a little back in the day. These days it’s just a meh! Bitcoin is an unstoppable force.

A container loaded with cocaine...literally.

Crazy thing is; this seized container is just a small part of the volume of the drug that passes through the port, only a small fraction of all containers are checked.

Ah sorry I'm late. Bit of turbulence. Hitting my car.

as I noted in an earlier post { https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178336.msg55491561#msg55491561 }

 the  best streak of above 12,584

was from 2017-12-06 to 2018-01-15  that was 41 days

so 15 down and 26 to go.

   This will be a really nice streak to break.

  If we stay hot we break the streak on Dec. 2, 2020

so 2020-12-02 here we come.

   Perhaps the obvious eludes me; what is the significance of 12,584?

Well when do you want to start streak? 10000 11000 12000 13000 14000

I picked 12584

for a few reasons. it was the 21 of October so it allowed for easy setup and counting


2020-10-18  11,447
2020-10-19  11,659
2020-10-20  11,879.    could go on the back end of streak but don't allow for easy counting

oct 17 did not make the list below

 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=138109.msg55395377#msg55395377

and as I state I use hit thread for all numbers I use.

Also the 3 back end are under 12000

and 20-10-21  was first over 12K with streak still alive.

so we should be over 12,584 for 16 days and 25 to go to break the  longest streak ever
