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

[AliceGored]

Yeah! My buy limit orders went through , time to wire more fiat for another round of buys. These shakeouts don't scare veterans who have been riding the rollercoaster for some time, just another buying opportunity.

Bitcoin veterans, like BitUsher, wire filthy fiat to exchanges to scoop $450-something coins like you wouldn't believe.

While ignoring a crescendo of ill concealed laughter, like a bozz .

Disappointing to see a bit of a dump today but we soldier on. As far as I'm concerned this is cheap coins before the halving.

Well look who's back. I was worried something had happened to you. What's it been? 3 weeks?

You missed all the fun of a great little month-long bull run. Hopefully you were too busy accumulating bitcoins to bother with posting here.

Seeing the pathetic result of today's frantic attempt to stop the rally, we've still got a long way to go.

All those ask walls at $466, $476, $483, $490, $493, etc., were pulled for a massive dump and it barely put a wrinkle in the price.

Too bad it's not enough of a dip for me to consider buyable. I hope I don't regret not buying more while the price is still below $500, but I did stock up pretty nicely when the price dipped below $200 and while it was still under $300.

I’ve been around, lurking mostly. I’m still hodling but only because none of the things I want to buy have been invented yet.

I bet we're going to climb back up again just before my payday and bears are going to dump on me.



At least now we can start climbing again.

I'm always out when the fun happens and I was not able to make any move. I believe a dump like the one we saw today was pretty normal: to me there's nothing to worry about (yet).

^I can wait.

[bitebits]

this makes you wonder how mistakes like this happen...

what client were they using?

dosnt core warn you if you try and send a fee that is 100,000times higher then the amount you are sending?

you'd think most wallets have implemented some common sense checks before sending.

It usually happens because someone who doesn't understand how change transactions work in bitcoin tries to spend a portion of the funds in a paper or brain wallet.  If you send funds from a paper or brain wallet, you need to make sure to send ALL of it at once to your wallet, then spend a portion from that.

When you spend bitcoins, the amount you spend comes out of chunks you have received (inputs), and usually, there will be at least two outputs - one is the spend, and the other is the change, which is sent back to an address you own.  If you create a transaction that spends from one or more inputs without spending ALL of the funds contained in those inputs, and you don't provide an output to a change address you own, any funds in the inputs that exceeds the spend will become transaction fees paid to the miner that mines the block containing the transaction.

All software and hardware wallets, as far as I know, handle that stuff for you, and yes, Core, at least, will warn you if you try to send with an excessive manual fee.

Thanks for clearly explaining!

Heading for $630 now boys. Strap in.

I have my reservations regarding whether this is the "last" pre-$500 "shakeout."


Bitcoin frequently overshoots, so we gotta be prepared for that...

I mean the potential for more downward price pressures remains because we don't really know how many coins are in the hands of various bearwhales (and if they haven't all gone into hybernation, yet?).....

And actually, the latest couple of downward pushes (in the past 12 hours) have caused only an incremental (maybe average) levels of volume... We still have not gotten anywhere near our August 2015 to December 2015 trade volume levels, but maybe the actual volume increases will come after getting into the $600's, perhaps? 

Yeah... we are all speculating here, including myself.... yet on a personal level, I feel a bit better about jiggering my BTC portfolio after this latest volatility episode.. even though I frequently get a bit nervous when prices are moving a bit quicker and farther than I had expected in one direction or another, and I am trying to figure out when to pull the buy/sell trigger or the extent to which to attempt a further reconfiguration of my allocations.

Back to the start of last week 
I will buy up some now and save some for days after the halving cometh.

First stage separation ... "get ready for a little jolt fellas!"

[DaRude]

Well $1.5MM was shacken from longs but still over $29MM to go. Bunch of shorts covered too so not many of those to burn so dunno. On another hand no flash crashes on Finex is always a plus

But, we all love this, too ... more it's crash and more it can UP dramaticly.
