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

I'll never understand why people sell on the way down.
It's the complete opposite of what a good trader does.

You don't understand why people sell on the way down AND the value of your stash is inferior to what you invested. There is a link between the two things.

[madmat]

I am ready to sell if we go down under 236.

It wouldn't wonder me if this is exactly what some people try to provoke. There is easy money to be made, when people sell at generally known thresholds.

I will be the one who buys your coins. 

Buy them, i will buy back mine later, at a lower price. I am a perma holder for most of my stash. The coins i am going to sell are only 10% of my coins.

Who says I will sell them back to you

Well, maybe it was somehow uncorrect to say I would buy your coins @$236. It is more a sign of my willingness to buy fresh coins. The lower the price, the higher my willingness to buy. As masterluc said long ago... Everything < $260 is buying zone (long-term).

I will not buy back them to you, i don't think you are stupid. But i think some other will sell at a lower price, because they will be forced to. If the support hold, i keep my coins.

PayPal merchants can now accept Bitcoin?

Wow. That's news.

Key words here:

"....digital currencies such as Bitcoin..."

Chaps....world domination is upon us. Hold on to your beer (and the boobs).

PayPal doesn't have a mobile hardware phone offering, so while Apple Pay, Microsoft and Samsung all jump into mobile payments, PayPal needs to do something different.

Options.

1. Add Bitcoin and start pissing off Visa and MasterCard, and the above. That's not so bad for PayPal because it back's onto people's bank accounts. In theory PayPal could wipe out Coinbase, while also propelling Bitcoin into the mainstream.

2. PayPal could try to buy a hardware unit, if Blackberry wasn't such a basket case it could have been RIM. But why bother? PayPal is currently unique in that it connects to people's bank accounts. Until Apple, Microsoft and Samsung switch to doing this, PayPal and Bitcoin are a natural fit for PayPal's competitive advantage.

I'd be buying Bitcoin and PayPal stock at this point.

Well, that's awesome. BIT on Monday PLUS Paypal? The ultimate Bear trap is being settled... Am I the only one who sees where this is going?

PS2: They don't need one. Any phone with paypal app will do just fine...

I'm sceptical.
BIT opening has been next week for about 3 weeks & these ebay/paypal announcements seem to be trotted out 2 or 3 times a year & fuck all happens.

Shorters will get burnt before the news. If this is real, rumor will get bitcoin to 300$ in less than 24 hours.

That's the nature of regulators.

They move at glacial speed, and they have a big impact.

Proper news, adoption.

Getting fed up of this bear market, if I wasn't fairly comfortable in life I'd have sold everything by now.

I'll never understand why people sell on the way down.

No. You're wrong. Good trader is trader who can earn money with both direction.

Bad trader is trader who can earn money only with bubble rises.

True story. Bitcoin is not for the faint hearted, that's for sure. I guess all of us here have something in common though. Bulls and Bears. We're in for the long run...

I hope in 10 years I can call myself an early adopter even though I only got in May/June 2014.

Meh... but BIT is already open, trading has just not started yet and paypal announced that they were integrating back in Dec(?) (and announced before that that they were thinking of integrating) and now they are finally starting to roll it out.

Good to see some traders like ibankbitcoins being wrong, as well. He also bought the rally to $260, and I consider him to be quite level-headed and giving some nice input on trades.
