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

If anyone else is bored sick of this chart doing its best impression of hardwood lumber...

I found this the other night, great read. Also serves as a nice inoculation against flirting around with the altcoin markets.

Good read, but the original thread is here

I've been through the majority of those scams, trying to convince the newbies not to invest, but they never listened Thousands upon thousands of bitcoins were redirected from the pockets of the greedy dumb newbies into the hands of the whales that were manipulating the entire scene. The business was booming in 2014, not so much now, though. The death of Mintpal also had a huge effect on the scamcoin market.

One thing to be sure about regarding the NASDAQ Stockholm Bitcoin launch next week is that no one will be selling coins there in the start, because it's not possible.

The price is consolidating. I think in 24 hours we will see a move. No idea up or down and i am not even guessing, just reacting to the market.

That sound just like GBTC. What do you mean exactly?

KnC is sitting on so many coins that they had to find new way to dump them. And they called it NASDAQ.

There is no depth on other exchanges and after all they are still in the business of mining & dumping.

Ah, thanks.

The post history definitely didn't match well. And now I know why. The command of the written word reminds me of someone...

I think it will go down lower.

I think it will go down lower.

Considering its track record in recent months that's a solid assertion. One day, though. One day...

After reading your post it occurred to me that the fat blob con artist who ran Mintpal could conceivably have been behind many of the scam coins it listed. I assumed he only got away with the Bitcoins he stole from peoples accounts, but he could have ripped people off for far more if he was a "dev" behind multiple coins. We always had to trust Mintpal's voting system fairly decided which coin to list next, but it might have been fixed

I wasn't really sure if ejinte was joking. AFAIK, XBT Provider can issue as many shares/notes they want and back it up with bitcoin bought from different exchanges.

Wasn't he a relatively recent arrival though? I remember Mintpal being a fine exchange once upon a time. If I remember rightly Mintpal con boy's notoriety started with Doge. The creator of that may have turned out to be a shrill knob, but he wasn't a con artist or that guy.

This seems to be the triangle, more or less.

This thread dated July 28 says Mintpal had been sold to Moolah. The Moolah owner seems to have disappeared in October, which gave him two months to do anything he liked. I remember the switch to the new v2 website took a long time and was a total disaster, but he must have had a window of time in which he could have listed some of his own scam coins.

  Oh, that butchered Mintpal V2 launch. He/They supposedly "lost" the database while launching the new exchange. A new exchange that was actually powered by a non-functional admin theme bought from themeforest for 15 dollars.

 Man, I don't think that i will ever have the opportunity to laugh like in 2014 in my lifetime. Scam after scam after scam and a lot of people that were under the "Wolf of Wall Street" euphoria. A lot of the newbies thought that they were professional traders. Shitcoins were having up to 10k BTC volume per day on shady exchanges, GOX, fallen dark markets etc, you name it, it was happening.

The only thing that could revive the epic scams of 2014 would be a radical increase in bitcoin's price. The hype would then bring a ton of new interested naive users ready to dive in into the world of get-rich-quick-schemes and candy colored coins.
