Good morning Bitcoinland. No Wall Street Monday yet I see, and no Dump of Doom. Just more sideways. Ho hum. At least the dancing walls supply a little entertainment. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi664.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fvv10%2FJimboToronto%2Fbullbeardance.jpg&t=665&c=NOBZmtnKgedDbQ) What wall street money are you talking about? Not "money", Monday. Wall Street Monday is a mythical bullish event that Norway and a few others were anticipating for today. It obviously didn't happen.

You know what's more excruciating than a high volume dump down to $180? A slow, 12 month grind down to $180. From the average Joe, I'm sensing a huge amount of apathy for bitcoin right now, which sucks.
Why no apathy in the years before Jan 2013? Are we still way above what can be supported?
I fear that if Bitcoin was what it is supposed to be you wouldn't have to ask the question. We would just see stable high volume on all exchanges. Instead we see the market and volume move according to the sentiments of speculators. If someone really needed BTC they would just buy it and use it without hanging out to see what the price would do. That doesn't mean that it can't sustain a highish price as a speculators plaything, but I would be more comfortable if speculators accounted for 10% of the volume, not 90-98%. Edit: typo: can should be can't

Speculation is a huge and vital part of every market. Big currency markets simply have large market caps (in the trillions) so they are less volatile. You need billions, not millions to manipulate those markets. Bitcoin is still a very young market and is just beginning to show efficient price discovery mechanisms. You joined during a massive speculative bubble so your expectations are high. Give it time.

Sorry if this has been reported already: There are still no trades of BIT shares (GBTC) on OTCQX, but the top bids @ 40.00 $/share have been lowered to 38.00 $/share and some other lower price (can't figure out which).

I'm going to +1 this so you understand the depth of my approval here. But I will delete it before the mods see it. Yeh, will give a +1 too and await deletion. I posted this morning agreeing with the more active moderation of this thread. Post deleted. Now starting to wonder (speculate ... speculation forum) what the objective really is. Some clarification is definitely required IMO as it is is now starting to feel like censorship. First rule of Wall Observer - don't talk about post deletion ... does not work for me. Perhaps we should open a seperate thread about it and see what happens to that. If it is an active attempt to 'mould' this thread, well, ain't much point in typing here any more. I thought this was what Bitcoin was all about ... some kind of freedom, and this thread, a place to speak openly ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) (though I agree that intentional unwarranted denigration and incessant trolling is a plague that needs to be eliminated) Lets see how long this post lasts ... What is 'on-topic' when there is more activity in post-deletion than in the market ?? FWIW, interesting to see bid side building on BFX. Looks like we might have a little push up to $23X. Not sure it will hold though
