There are so many scenarios where entirely more than $10 million enters the market overnight.
While nothing is a certainty in this world, I'd say the odds of someone dumping 10 million onto an exchange and slamming market buy with every last dime of it are slim to none. If someone had $10 million they wanted to put into bitcoin, they would probably be bidding in the upcoming auction, or buying off-exchange. ...and when they lose the auction, that is exactly what they will do. Maybe not a market order. But certainly a lot of buying pressure after the auction. There will be days in the near future where $10 million per day will be a drop in the bucket. Feel free to save this post and recirculate in the coming months. One, thinking like yours is what makes people panic buy at the top of rallies. Two, you originally said "$10 million enters the market overnight," not "a lot of buying pressure after the auction." We need to be shooting for 100% of m2 then. Fuck those other currencies.
Yeah good luck with that. 1. I am not advocating buying at the top of the rally, I am advocating buying right now. When it goes past $500, you are probably too late considering fiat deposit times. 2. $10 million is nothing to hedge funds, retirement funds, etc. There will be be buying pressure right after the auction and long after. 3. People are going to be sick that they missed out on buying bitcoin at these prices. My advice is to buy what you can afford or forever regret. You are lucky to even know what Bitcoin is at this point in its evolution.

Well, the price being 252$, it means that everybody who who owns bitcoin thinks that they are worth more than 245$; but, on the other hand, everybody in the world who has some money to spare thinks that 1 BTC is not worth 255$. The latter think that the changes of it being worth more than 1300$ anytime in the next few years are much less than 20%.

i'll revisit this thread for lolz later, in the meantime keep up your enthusiasm because i'll need a hardworking porter like you when that imaginary rally comes. There are so many scenarios where entirely more than $10 million enters the market overnight.

1. Didn't say you did. I said thinking like yours, and bear in mind I was talking about your "$1500 overnight" comments. Price is not at all likely to go to $1500 overnight. 2. "Right after the auction and long after" is not "overnight." Again, I was responding to "$1500 overnight" comments. 3. Eh, nothing really to say to that, other than time will tell.

Oh shit, is it really going to $1500 tonight? I have some stuff I could pawn off to buy in quick. Have your families do the same. Hell, you could even do a smash & grab on a store or just run around in the street with a gun stealing cars

Time will tell about everything. People are very short sighted. I'm trying to point out that leaving sell orders overnight is a bad idea and many were caught with their pants down in the last real rally. Selling any bitcoin in my opinion at these prices is just plain irresponsible.

It could very easily. I'm telling my family. I have a moral responsibility to do so.

I don't know where you get the stat but I feel sorry for them. It is not a survey, just math. If anyone with money to invest thought that the chances of BTC hitting 1300$ in the next 2 years were higher than 20%, they should buy it even for 300$. But they aren't, so...

If too many ppl end up running in the streets stealing cars to buy BTC, then it could create too much sell pressure on the used car industry and run the price down. So while I recommend that millions of you do it, I can't morally recommend tens of millions.

Just rounded the number. To get a more accurate value one should consider also the chances of it reaching 1200 but not 1300, 1100 but not 1200, 1000 but not 1100, etc. Then one would get much less than 20% for "will get above 1300". The 20% number is the upper bound, assuming that those buyers consider only two possibilities: "will get higher than 1300$ sometime in the next 2 years" or "crashes to 0$ right after I buy it, and stays there forever". Then p*1300 + (1-p)*0 < 255, which gives p < 255/1300. If they are considering other cases besides those two (which of course they are), then p must be even less than that. Anyway, note that it is what "the market" must be thinking, not what I think.

And too many people who are trained in math, do not dare to make their own calculations!
