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

[strawbs]

Good morning ladies and gentlemen of Bitcoinland.

I see yesterday's little beartrap is closing quite nicely... currently $1254USD (Bitcoinavaerage).

According to Google, we're at exactly $1700CAD. Nice round number.

Onward and upward (or maybe a little more sideways). Go Bitcoin go.

Is everyone on this thread living on Mount Athos? You realise they're half the global population, right? There might be one within 5-6 metres of you RIGHT NOW.

Don't worry bro. Not everyone here is a pimply-faced misogynist antisemitic nerd living in Mom's basement. Some of us are adults with lives in the real world.

Some of us like the company of real women and prefer hanging out with them and sleeping with them and not just fantasizing about them while masturbating to images on a computer screen or in a one-handed magazine.

Screw you the mods. This person is a misandrist. Delete his posts.

White knights gonna knighting.

They never see the cognitive dissonance about the fact, that this scene is free to explore/join/participate for both genders, and yet somehow ~98/100 are males (as in STEM in general). Must be the bigotry of the evil patriarchy  

It has nothing to do with the natural IQ distribution of men vs. women, or the psychological/cognitive differences in the sexes. Actually, now i became a bigot, just by saying that gender is not a social construct, but a biological fact.

PS.: highlighting facts does not= moral judgement.

Bitcoinland is heavily populated by tech nerds, who tend to be male. It's nice to have some of the finer half of the species around here.

If there is a pre-announcement in 3 days when would you be able to invest in it, immediately, weeks, months?

If @marcus_of_augustus is right the play is to buy bitcoin now. It takes time after approval for paperwork etc for COIN to be listed on BATS. I have seen estimates of about a month soonest after approval.

Thats ok. I'll bag hold BTC for a month.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Still creeping upward after Saturday's little correction/profit-taking... currently  $1266USD (Bitcoinaverage).

It seems like forever since we last had an ATH (3 days ago).

I guess everybody's just waiting on the SEC.

2? the 3 on the other day was kind of mystery, so is the 2. For me it is.

Looks like Converted Organics was removed to make way for new bloomberg page - https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/COIN:US

Insiders know something about the ETF approval for this page to be listed?

Old COIN was removed a long time ago -

404 error .

They actively added COIN ETF for some reason.

Excellent ETF analysis from kegman83

So is the deregulatory attitude in place at the SEC? Mary Jo White is gone since the last extension, leaving 2 members left.

    "If the market begins to move toward blockchain technology, regulators need to be in a position to lead, harnessing its benefits and responding quickly to potential weaknesses." -Kara Stein, SEC

Its worth noting this quote is from 2015. Since then JP Morgan has released Quorum, an Etherium based ledger. Enterprise Ethereum Alliance is very much a thing now whether you like it or not. It includes banks like BNY Mellon, CME Group, ING, UBS, Santander and JPMorgon.

While I dont have many quotes from Piwowar, he's a GOP stalwart and very anti-regulation. He recently called for allowing ordinary investors to buy unregistered securities.. Basically, he wants everyone to buy OTC stocks, not just bigwigs. Thats insane btw, and what the SEC was made to prevent. I dont see him holding COIN up.

Trump nominated Jay Clayton to the SEC, but seeing as he hasnt been voted on by the Senate, its probably not going to happen before the 13th.

Its worth noting that a tie vote by the SEC means COIN is approved.

TL;DR Hold on to your butts.

Ohh ok, yes , haven't posted much in Bitcointalk lately , but used to and still discourage day trading. Long term holder, but it is good to pass along relevant info to others to get in before the next big bubble. If I'm wrong and the ETF gets denied no big deal, expect a couple hundred dollar correction that quickly gets recovered. All of these prices are cheap in the large scope regardless so unless someone is taking a mortgage on their home or spending 100% fiat it is the time to buy now.

[york780]

who sold at the top  ?

[Dafar]

Antpool just started mining BU blocks.

And there seems to be some brewing drama regarding UASF and dingy miners who are threatening to split the network with BU (shitcoin)





Anyone concerned about this at all?

[jofus]

1280 seems to be tough to break.

[petahashminer]

1000 BTC buy wall @ BITSTAMP @ $ 1275

[BitUsher]

Antpool third block is not BU , he was bluffing or testing , the drama continues.
