Edit: oops Silbert is not CEO of secondmarket any longer. Nevertheless, secondmarket Inc. still owns BIT which just opened the OTC market. I thought they would be bidding solid for these coins.
IIRC, Silbert is no longer CEO of SecondMarket, but remains at the head of SM's BIT fund (or of whatever SM division/subsidiary that "owns" that fund).

I think green volume looks good, rising bottoms since $166 on the daily, couple recent pump attempts from whales taking big positions (knowing that shakeouts don't do a whole lotta good anymore...), desperate gambling bears trying to trade against the market, throwing all they have left at it to protect their short positions... Rockets are getting primed to leave this trading range. $300 right around the corner.

...I'm up over ... 3000% last five years. I'm just pissed because I should have done much much better.
3000% in 5 years? Let's see, a $20 pizza was sold for 10,000 BTC back then... So you've lost most of your coin? No shit you "should have done much better."

No shit you "should have done much better."  he bought in first near the top of the 2011 hype, which either means he flipped some coins (ie traded) in between what would make him a hypocrite, or a liar. Oh and yes I'm pretty sure he bought near the top of the 2011 hype because his angry rant after the first major goxxing was archived on the something awful frontpage. (Which also means he always was an insufferable asshole)

Bitstamp is just a rumpled husk of its former self. I saw 7 minutes between trades a while back... sad. Gonna take a while to make back that near 20k btc lost with commissions.

That's my retirement. My trading account has lost money in USD terms, but I have increased my BTC count substantially. Kinda sucks, but I'm still learning.

That's a cause for celebration, un-ironically. Apparently SOME people do learn.

yeah ... bitcoin isn't a pump and dump mechanism ... except ... every single person refers to increasing price from buying as pump and decreasing price from selling as dump ...

It's very difficult to push price in the direction you want it to go. You have to drive the bid and ask sums more than the price so you can minimize slippage when you take profits. The profits are often less than the cost of pushing the price. You can sometimes trick the market with fake walls, but that can backfire if someone takes a big bite out of your wall before you can pull it. A whale with the right skill could almost print money with minimal risk, but if you run into another whale, he could take you out. For us minnows, the ideal situation is competing whales that we can skim off of, trading the churn.
