$254.90 on Stamp. The bears are out in force by the looks of it, I'm feeling pretty negative at the moment, still going to HODL as usual obviously, I understand bitcoin is a long term investment but this XT bull shit with Hearn & Gavin is causing the price to tank imo. Weak hands are panicking & getting out  This price dip is nothing compared to the crash that would happen sometime next year when Core Dev allows the 1MB to cripple legitimate user tx throughput. |

what's the blue thing below explanation in the chartguy's posts?
It's a protest at the censorship going on over on Reddit. |

... if you want a site with no editorial responsibility you will have to wait for some autonomous ethereum- or sidechain-driven site. There's a limit to how long a company can condone their business being the platform for pedos and racists to promote their activities.
Regardless of whether anyone likes it or not, XT is one of Bitcoin's potential futures. That's a much more important and valid thing to be discussing than the latest announcement about a vaping shop accepting BTC. Bitcoin or bitcoin 'futures'? Do you mean the coin or the technology? |

The coin. If enough people get on board then Bitcoin will become XT even if that causes much strife. I dunno what the right course is but suppressing its discussion leaves a very odious taste. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect |

You get a selection of complimentary burger shots if you download their client. But (for first) you have said the blockchain and then changed to 'coin'. Damn I didn't quote the post... I was gonna say our lovely blockchain but changed it for clarity. |

The mods at /r/bitcoin are now deleting every post that mentions the existence of the "other" implementation of bitcoin, whatever the contents. Dozens of posts that had hundreds of upvotes and hundreds of comments. And banning users who defend it, too.
So much for the great age of freedom and stuff that bitcoin was going to bring.
Oh, and the bitcoin "news" webshites, like CoinDesk, have been as silent on the topic as any statist newsmedia would be.

This makes me think that it is very possible that a lot of these individuals are selling their BTC out of frustration and being fed up with being silenced. |

CoinDesk is just like any one-party political paper seen in 3rd world countries, by maintaining silence on a Bitcoin story far more important than their usual offerings. |

So somebody dumped 10,000 coins and the price moved ~ six bucks down, bounced back up five and is now holding steady half way up (or down depending on your point of view). Put together with last weekend's more successful dump, that's 50,000 coins to move the price down ~$25 or 2k coins per dollar lower value. And there seems to be diminishing returns.
He should write a book called "How to lose your ass attempting to manipulate the bitcoin market".
my guess is he borrowed those coins from some early adopter off exchange and now he is looking to trying to buy them back without moving the market up so much that he loses money. Good luck with that.
