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

I like BTC stability. Sell for 1300 and buy back for 950 in just one day.

dude that's one of those incidents that happen once in a million years, it was awesome and good for anyone who could catch it.
i did but not at the very bottom.

One of the critiques was from Professor Bitcorn stating that 50% of bitcoins are owned by less than 1000 people. Mark Zuckerburg alone owns almost 30% of Facebook and yet they are just fine with listing his little fund. Many companies list their stocks on the exchanges with most of the ownership belonging to two or three people.

And that high percentage number goes down over time as we all see the early adopters dump a large amount of their coins periodically.


I am willing to bet that they do not hold all future ETFs to such a high standard. I would be willing to write to the SEC during any open request for comments to ask if the new ETF fulfills all of the requirements that they rejected Bitcoin for.

Fuck that guy... what is his problem? Why is he even commenting on bitcoin after his ridiculous claims of BTC going to $10

Some people just want to bring others down. Literally that is all r types live for.

I think it's pretty well understood at this point that Mark T. Williams and Jorge Stolfi are both paid troll cronies for the financial industry. No one would dedicate such relentless antagonism against anything in life and become 'known' for it, unless they are being paid to do so.

I missed it and I dont think I'll get a chance to acquire BTC at low price like that again. It all happened because of ETF, pump and dump but its good that BTC recovered well after the news. Great gor everyone who was able to catch it. Easy and quick profits.

If we take a look for a while at TA:

If you want to be successful investor forget about TA!
TA is a fishnet to catch small fish.

Well, what's your recommendation for me then?   Play with your emotions, "sense" or so called "feelings"? That's stupid. I always thought TA is the 1st thing which has to be done before investing any serious money into any kind of investment such as stocks, forex, bitcoin etc.

Stupid are people that don't understand TA is just a graphical representation of their emotions. They see the picture what they want to see.

Does posting that chart mean you are a TA expert?

If you are then why did you make a terrible prediction not so long ago? I remember your admission it was wrong was very funny.

I was wrong!!






-PoolMinor
-Sue me

Wrong once before doesn't make me wrong every time. It is only a failure if I don't keep trying. All I know is I sold at $1270 and bought back at $975

re-he-he-heally.........sure it wasnt $1350 & $975?

Nah... Poolminor is not subject to exaggeration nor extensive patting on his own back...     


To be more specific, he is modest and he sold at $1342.61  and bought back at $983.12. 

Of course, he is kicking himself a little bit for his timing being a bit off, but continues his best to be the goofball that he is...,


 

Now, he is going to continue to predict an imminent correction (without specifics) for the next $4k upwards, and when it happens, at $4628, he is going to say.. "I tried to tell you guys, and you wouldn't listen."

Stolfi the filthy bastard. Idiot knew about bitcoin since the early days & didn't invest. He's just bitter AF that he didn't make serious money whilst it was staring at him in the face the whole time.

[york780]

Unbelievers are not welcome. BTC to 10k in 5 years.

Those that sold at $1350 and bought back at $975 - I'm absolutely facsinated at how you managed it. How did you know ?

Actually - forget it - you are talking out of your arses.

it was certainly a lot of fun to watch. since most of the exchanges crapped out they're probably talking out of their asses about their trading triumph too.

[practicaldreamer]

Re. Stolfi. He's carved out a niche for himself. Not many people understand crypto, and they welcome an "expert" like Stolfi to assure them that they needn't bother trying to understand crypto.
Stolfi is happy - and his minions are happy. Job done. A big pat on the back.

Its quite sad really.

[practicaldreamer]

While I'm at it - I'd just like to relate the fact that I think that in the aftermath of the ETF rejection the price holding at circa £1185 is very fuckin bullish indeed. Kind of makes me proud for some reason.

Gotta feel for the Winkles a little bit. I know they are privileged cocks - but they believe in BTC just the same as the rest of us.

If I were gay I'd give them a big man hug

it must be a real pisser to have all that effort thrown away at the last minute, especially when the sec could've saved it all for them years before. i wonder what other options they're looking at. i hope they keep pushing gemini at least.

[Mahdi0]

FUCK THE ETF!

New ATH coming at ya this month or soon after. Better for all of us that this wall street bullshit did not screw things up for BTC in the long haul

That guy doesn't seem to really know much about the technicals or fundamentals of bitcoin, but I actually agree with the ETF decision for a few reasons.  Bitcoin has no transaction finality or even eventual consistency since technically the entire chain can be re-written, and in order to make any claim of being decentralized (unlike Vitalikcoin), that's the way it has to be designed; so bitcoin does not, and probably never will, fit into any existing legal system.

Can't their ETF be approved later down the line?

thats almost like saying company XYZ can't be listed because half of the board can potentially leave to start a competing company, isn't it?

technically ya.

but that would be a "completely different application"

i'm guessing  years from now MAYBE the SEC could be persuaded to reconsider.

[york780]

No , or they must make a new ETF and start the whole process over again. Not likely because of the money and time that they wasted on COIN. And we also have Solid X and Grewscale that are still running but they will likely also be denied because of bitcoin's small marketcap and its anomity.

No, the term "consensus" is mostly a common shared delusion that can change into something completely different at any given time, and such a circumstance is not really compatible with a binary outcome legal system.  Bitcoin might also have to become inflationary to maintain any form of convergence after the block reward is gone, so whatever attributes were sold to ETF clients would be on false claims due to bitcoin still evolving as well.  If inflation is required, bitcoin would probably also fork off into all kinds of different chains at that point, from proof of stake to who knows what else.

It is not really written in stone that bitcoin is even a valid system yet, or that it won't be completely different and resemble nothing like how it started.  An ETF is kind of for a finished product without all the uncertainty - another reason I consider bitcoin a currency and not money.  Money doesn't fork.  I don't have to worry about Roger Ver sneaking into my silver or gold coins and forking them into...cheetos or some other unrecognizable molecular structure.

Yeah, right from the beginning, the SEC could've just said. "No way. We can't control bitcoin."

Not really, their dollar cost average is something like $100.  Even with these exchanges shallow order books, they can probably still send all their coins to every exchange on the planet and dump simultaneously while walking off into the sunset at a large profit.  I assume they will probably try to dump OTC, though.
