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

after the upcoming auction how many coins do they have left?

44k I think ?

The Ozzies have some too.

they have what like 10K
buying large blocks at fixed price like this a deal and a half, plus with price severely depressed...
I think we'll see a alot of buying pressure come back to the markets once these coins are off the table.
wouldn't be surprised to see the move up before hand in anticipation.

I already posted this, but there seem to be many new users who may need the information:

The English suffix "-ant" can be attached to some verb roots to yield an adjective or noun that means someone or something who is doing (or just did, or customarily does) the action signified by the verb.  The root verbs that take this suffix seem to be mostly of Latin origin, that had infinitive ending in "-are"; those with "-ere" Latin infinitives take the "-ent" suffix instead.  Thus for example, while "to solve" gives "solvent", and "to precede" gives "predecent", we have "protestant" from "to protest", "claimant" from "to claim", "entrant" from "to enter" (Latin "entrare"), etc.

Remeber this whenever you feel the urge to click "ignore".

Soon the price will start to fall slowly for a month or two, culminating in a deep drop to around 90$. Then the dumb and the greedy will celebrate their new trend reversal to 10 000$ coin.
The big holders are moving out of this game slowly, by giving the dumb and the greedy just enough hope to soften their fall.
Quick, take more loans and wire in more money, because coins can't get any cheaper then this!
 

and get your money into a bank asap right ??

And why not? The big holders, who have milked the dumb and the greedy for the past year are doing it, and it has worked out pretty good for them.
If you want your wealth to increase though, then I wouldn't recommend to sit on any currency or bank for long. Use that free money to invest in your own business to have the best probability for success.

Gee. Nice chart, I'm somewhere between 2 and 3 from the bottom... so I guess I have long road ahead

That chart shows when each group adopted or will adopt. If you joined in mid-2010, you were right on schedule, and you are OK.   

Why is not the bankers on top?

I think from memory it was closer to 25K the ozzies have got.

Nice one.

Still, the ignore button is your friend, especially when the troll brigade is out in force. What matters really is how you define 'troll'... different opinion than my own: not a troll. Low content posts trying to get a rise out of people: troll, ignore becomes an option if you still want to use the forum for its intended purpose.

You constantly feed the troll Stolfi, which is bad enough, but you also quote his attention-whoring all the time which is both another kind of feeding and staggeringly rude to very many here that have him on ignore.

So, "nice one", join him on another ignore.

I like the pattern that's currently forming... I predict a sharp increase within the hour! I've seen this pattern many times before and it never fails me

"Wordpress received only slightly over 100 BTC payments in 2014

Commenting on the recent removal of the Bitcoin payment option from the Wordpress subscription screen, founder Matt Mullenweg revealed the site received only two payments a week in Bitcoin during 2014, but plans to reinstate the payment option for “philosophical” reasons.

"The volume has been dropping since launch, in 2014 it was only used about twice a week, which is vanishingly small compared to other methods of payment we offer. […] We supported Bitcoin for philosophical reasons, not commercial ones."

      
    
 

Yeah, 20 grand worth of bitcoins... Barely walking-around money.

Exactly! Especially if you add that they didn't have to pay anything to use this payment method or keep it on their site.

I bet you there was an accountant somewhere with his knickers in a knot.

100 btc payments is not the same thing as 100 btc in payments ... right?

Twice a week adds up to more than 100 payments, so I guess they mean 100 btc in payments.

I second that, and for the story, even I don't agree with many people's posts here I don't have them on ignore. I do have on ignore though a LOOOONG list of multiple accounts of -a-one-and-single-user- here... LambYourMotherEtc...

They said around two a week, so approx 100 payments in a year.

interesting article over on TNW

http://thenextweb.com/insider/2015/03/03/why-bitcoin-is-changing-how-banks-do-business/

“I believe — and this is my personal view — that blockchain technology will not only change the way we do payments but it will change the whole trading and settlement topic....
...when somebody with a strong brand and security level establishes it as a reliable service, then the whole industry will follow. That is my personal prediction.”

And much much more, have a read.

edit: and with JPM hiring bitcoinists and bitcoinmagazine hinting at the largest VC funding of a stealth startup ever, again I wildly speculate that there is already some big money working on the settlement or transactions system for big finance.
