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

[Norway]

Jorge, always here to cheer us up! You must throw fantastic parties during carnival in Brazil!  

I helped organize a couple of them when I was a Ph. D. student in the US.  But the Brazilian Students Association was so popular that the president was from Portugal.  So that does not add much to my resumé, I am afraid.

Well Jorge, what you say does not make tactical sense. So, I believe it's actually true!
But you must admit, you always come to the party with a sad face. I was sarcastic in my previous post.

I don't think you are honest about your basic motives regarding bitcoin. I'm a 44 year old nuclear physics-guy.

Still, I remember you melted and was actually ironic about yourself some posts ago.

I still don't trust your motives, I still think you lie about what makes you scan the Internet harder than google, looking for the word "bitcoin" and a negative slant, lol.

I also know that trolling as propaganda doesn't work

EDIT: Shit, I use the word "I" and "still" too much. (Like Donald Trumph in his campaign.)

"It has accurately predicted 200 of the last 2 recessions."

Good one.

It is 4 articles based on false visual comparison of nonrelated graphs with inconstent axes, 5 gold bug articles, and 1 good austrian economics article out of 10. Bitcoiners not welcome.

Edit: But I read it every day. They draw in relevant news.

Hey Elon, who is zerohedge? 

http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Zero_Hedge

Zero Hedge[1] is a batshit insane Austrian economics-based finance blog run by a pseudonymous founder who posts articles under the name "Tyler Durden," after the character from Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. It has accurately predicted 200 of the last 2 recessions.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_Hedge

By September 2009, Zero Hedge had begun drawing more traffic than more established financial websites[5] with 333,000 unique visitors a month, impressing even those[who?] who say the news site is full of conspiracy theory and "apocalyptic world view".[4] Durden says two-thirds of its readers are from Wall Street.[2] According to Quantcast, in 2012 Zero Hedge had a monthly global traffic of 1.8 million people.[7]

Wow, thx sir!

Exactly.  Either the quality of the articles has gone down considerably the past few years, or I used to be an idiot to give them as much credit as I did (perhaps because I was very new to economics).

I'm sorry, captain Spiff. The quality went down. You are not smarter.

JUST KIDDING! BTC teached economics to the nerds!

Is there some sort of causality I'm missing here?

Jorge has successfully identified enough BTC scams over the years to warrant respect. Sadly, there will continue to be scammers as long as BTC attracts happy-clappy noob idiots who think they are financial geniuses.

I can't believe you guys didn't tell me of this sooner! -> http://www.parl.gc.ca/Content/SEN/Committee/412/banc/rep/rep12jun15-e.pdf

Recommendation 1 (page 13)
The federal government, in considering any legislation, regulation and policies, create an environment that fosters innovation for digital currencies and their associated technologies. As such, the government should exercise a regulatory “light touch” that minimizes actions that might stifle the development of these new technologies.

Recommendation 4 (page 15)
The federal government, on an active and ongoing basis, work with other countries to formulate global guidelines for digital currencies while respecting the “light touch” premise outlined in Recommendation 1 above.

As well, the Committee agrees with witnesses that – at present – digital currencies have three main roles in Canada:
• a form of money;
• a commodity; and
• a payments system.

Is this the beginning of the Canadian renaissance in crypto? Or is Canada now just one big honeypot waiting for some heavy handed legislation to be applied "retro-actively" ?

My strategy of waiting until the Saturday night dip to grab bargains hasn't been working too well lately. There was only one case on two consecutive red candle days in the entire month of June (so far). I think I'm going to have to start buying every $15 dip.

I disagree with Jorge on most things wrt bitcoin, but he has more sensible stuff to say than the average poster.  I am glad he is on the forum, despite his pessimistics BTC view.

Thanks! But you are giving me too much credit.  Most of the time, I have been just one of the early critics...

I choose not to ignore you, because you sometimes dig up interesting info.
But your last info/link was a page 2 old reddit/r/bitcoin post.
Usually, it's like that.

I don't trust you. I know you lie about your motive. It's not academic interest.

AND I HATE TO LIVE IN A SOCIETY MANIPULATED BY POLITICAL/FINANCIAL PROPAGANDA!

Our freedom of speech is at risk as long as these paid fucking assholes try to interfere our dialog.

Same here. Its healthy to have people with opposing ideas, for that is what can help grow. Now if Jorge were to start posting my little ponies BS...well he would lose credibility with me then.

dips on the five minute chart keep getting smaller. In spite of the dropping volume and the time of day/week,  think it's fixin' to pop higher. I hope not. I want to reload from my sell @  $157 on June 16.

Darn, over 250.  Trolls will be here with their graphs any minute now.
