This is not true. Simple correction. Price won't go up forever. A lot of people on here probably also made some money on this. I did.
However, the bottom was in at around ~215 a couple of weeks ago. Bigger picture is still trending up.

Buying opportunity for everyone who sold between 238-244 is now again at 230-236.

I found it more interesting how people are willing to pay much more for btc/shares or anything else on one regulated market rather on those shady exchanges most of us are using... We all know those exchanges probably won't survive in next years, because regulated and trusted exchanges will surpass them. So question here is, who will go down first? My guess is Bitfinex. They probably already working on fractional reserves, not to mention they are under big manipulation.

It is just heavily short whales dumping the price lower to prevent buying in response to GBTC trading at a hefty premium to the exchange price. If a 5000 coin transaction goes through then things could get interesting really quick.

The price could be forced lower by selling down the orderbook further but we all know that is just someone manipulating the price lower to induce panic - it isn't natural selling. There are still 27000 shorts hanging over the market like a sword of Damocles. Shedding 5000 brought us up from 213 to 243. Already they are starting to creep back up.

I am buying here. I see value in the low 2xx's. After the high volume reversal bears have failed to break resistance between 200 and 220 on 5 successive attempts. Bullish announcements abound. Capital investment roars ahead. It is just a matter of time before the price fights higher.

I wouldn't be surprised if we retake 240 today.

Edit: a further 500 shorts just opened. Now up to 27500.

steers prefer to discuss ridiculous scam shit called gbtc dreaming about 1750$ while btc is going to sub 200$. no wonder that they followed another chinese fake pump, they are to silly to behold the truth behind chinese digits.

People will look back in the future and shake their heads at the insanity of sending large amounts of money to anonymous strangers in foreign lands. It still amazes me that people do it. Once the option of not getting potentially raped is there they'll all be dust.

Wacky question from someone who has been trading for 4 years now.
If I am just buying and selling at exchanges and this is how I am making my full income do I need some sort of license?
I was out drinking last night and a couple people told me I need a money transmitter license. For some reason I thought this was only for selling coin to people.
Anyone know? Im in the United States BTW

Thanks

I disagree. eg. BTC-E has never been competing with regulated exchanges and Bitfinex and Bitstamp are somewhere between BTC-E and fully regulated exchanges.

Each exchange type will find their Niche in the market.

You don't need a license.
Just be sure to inform about tax rules.

I'm doing this too since 2013, and from 2015 on this is my only profession. Here in the Netherlands the tax climate is quite good for having an income from investing/saving (I pay close to no tax). Not sure about your state.

wtf just happened on huobi?

30k btc trade but no movement....

[criptix]

[ Institutional funds ] would never, ever, send money to unregulated exchanges. It's simply against their basic policies. Institutional money has no mechanism of acquiring significant amount of BTC, except for the FBI auctions which is not usual way how they do business. Even if they want to buy BTC they can't, putting aside question whether they want to do that or not. That's why I've said any "good-intended" announcement of big money entering BTC which ends up being false, leaves much more damage then idiot who announced it imagined.

Can't such a fund strike a private contract with a sufficiently reliable middleman, who would buy the bitcoins on the exchanges or other places, shouldering the risks, and then sell them to the fund?

yeah like SecondMarket, in the future COIN and other ETF's and etc.

Look at the orderbook on huobi to see the truth. The volume is almost entirely fallacious.

Ah, come on. You don't really believe that now, do you? The only response to GBTC was to sell, since the dreamed about take off did not happen.

Nobody needed to do anything to "Prevent buying" anywhere. That is just nonsense, and I have a feeling you know it too.
