I could use some of dat parabolic movement in BTC

Going from a low of 200 to 2900 is not 'parabolic' enough for you?

Wow, greed.

And Bitcoin is not ever going to do 1000% in month or two, or even years. It's too big now, and it would take a Herculean amount of money now with like 500X leverage to do something like that, and there would have to be an unlimited amount of coins on exchanges (which there are not).

If Bitcoin ever spiked like that, I would be very afraid.

Of course I'm greedy, it's human nature... I won't be satisfied until my bitcoin portfolio is worth a million.... even a million these days is pocket change, I'm not asking for much. Are you saying 2X from 2013 ATH is all we are getting after 4 years? Bullshit. Give me at least $5K/btc

bitcoin doesn't have the ico/dapp hype that's turning into a feedback loop. that was a genius move on their part for as long as it lasts, which won't be much longer.

throw away 5% of your stash on shitcoins and see what happens. all you need is one to go places but kiss it goodbye before it goes just in case.

and didn't you put alot into xmr? aren't you up on that?

Is the ico/dapp feedback loop behind the insane price rise? At least that explains something. What sucks is all the newbies getting into crypto looks at ETH as "cheap" relatively to bitcoin and more fun because the price doesn't stop... kinda hurts bitcoin in terms of new adoption.

I don't stay in alts for long... I sold XMR already. I usually sell when I get a conservative 20-30% profit. I had ETH too and sold when I gained like 10% more BTC through the ETH/BTC ratio. Right now the only alt I'm holding is SC (siacoin) with targets to sell at 700 sats

Suprise twist, ETH goes parabolic

I shoud've just converted all my BTC to ETH... seriously... I'd be a milti millionaire right now. Maybe I should do it NOW. Seems like there's a greater chance ETH will reach $300 than BTC reaching $3000. Fucking bullshit.... c'mon bitcoin, you suck these days. The community is shooting themselves in the foot (to boost ETH?) and Ver/Jihan are fucking scumbags trying to ruin bitcoin (to boost ETH?).

Sucks... I cant logically buy ETH when it pumped from $8 in Feb... and it still has no signs of stopping

ETH not crasing yet is the primary sign that I still believe this bitcoin bubble is far from over. It just doesn't make sense how ETH has more then 50% of bitcoins value.

Remember, the markets can stay irrational for longer than you can stay rational.

Trust me, it will get there. I wager we will see a $5K floor, yes floor, by the end of 2020. Supported by miners and by true long holders. Bitcoin will be seen as the only sensible crypto and the true value play. The price of bitcoin will of course continue to increase into the future, but likely more slowly over time. I guess we shall see. 99.99% people have yet to even buy some.

All the other shitcoins are supported by nothing but the pumpers and FOMO hype. When all that changes, and it will someday, the ICO market will get fully labeled as 'SCAM MARKET' and the sensible people will never return there again. They can only pull off the mega scam once.

I just noticed mooncoin is at $60mil market cap.

I was gonna invest in that coin when it was at $22k market cap.

That is a ROI of 2,700. Absolutely ludacris.

some action plz up or down whatever

Yes, but lets supposse you would have "invested" on it? How much were you considering... I am almost sure it wasn't a sizeable amount anyways, am I wrong?

  An ROI of 2,700 is pretty normal in the Crypto currency space and most certainly not Ludacris ludicrous!

Jimbo, please never ever use charts in linear instead of logarithmic mode. It gives some false sense of proportions.

This has been an impressive rebound indeed. The market sentiment proved to be more resiliently bullish than I had expected. I was expecting the correction from $2650 to drop down around the $1500 level. I am back on board the train for now since the market was showing impressive signs of resistance around the $2000 level. The rebound from $1810 to current levels ($2325) will further instill a bullish sentiment with most sane investors/traders, which will springboard us to new all time highs.

I expect new all time highs in a matter of a few weeks (or more likely less). But how high will we go in the near term?

At this point... I see reaching $3,000 as effectively being guaranteed to happen soon.

I see $3,500 being a likely possibility too.

Things starts to get murky for me at $3,500+ though. IMO, we are sure to see another correction in the $3,500 to $4,750 range... and it will be an even bigger correction than we have seen the past few days (over $1,000). At that point investors that got in as little as 2 weeks ago will be seeing a 75%+ increase on their investments, and investors that got in a year ago... an impressive 700%+ in about a year.

I think numbers like $5,000+ are unrealistic in the near term. Too many people will be taking profits before we see $5k. We need more buyers at $2,000+ before enough hodlers can be conceived to take us above $5k. The longer the price can stay above $2k without bubbling, the more likely it is that we reach the upper end of my speculation range, which is $5,000 in the bulliest of bull markets.

So far things are going about how I expected. We already reached the new all time highs, and it only took about a week. There was a bit more resistance at $2900 than I had expected, but it looks like we have already recovered from the bearishness. Barring some horrible news, then I think we are upwards and onwards to $3k+ in the next week. The market will recover faster and faster with each bear trap that passes.

I think the only thing holding us back now is that it is towards the end of the week and the infamous "weekend dip" is at play. I don't think we will see much blood this weekend though as the overall sentiment is still bullish, and I expect that we will be mostly sideways until Monday.

I think that some time next week we will see the Bitcoin value go over $3k. I expect the value will get somewhere in between $3k and $3.5k over the next few weeks, then I am expecting a decent sized correction. The reason I don't think we will go much higher than $3.5k in the near term is in my last post in this thread, quoted above.

You seem to contradict yourself. If you believe what you are saying, we haven't reached the vertical part of the S-curve yet.

New ATH later today - so nice

I think its actually sideways... but who knows!?? Anything might be possible! (all that money that left UK again from their "Lira" ... needs to find their place somewhere!)     

This old neckbeard comes out of his elderly mothers basement a few times a day to make statements of ZERO substance. All you do is post memes to communicate; its obvious that you're a home-schooled idiot.

Go back to your basement, troll!

Bro, I've been in BTC longer than that chart... if it was truly parabolic my $50K investment in bitcoin wouldve made me a millionaire, not a lame thousand-air

This is slow steady growth, which I'm not complain about at all, I love it actually. But people are claiming that we are due for a huge crash... I mean what?? We haven't even had much fun yet! At least give me dat parabolic move BEFORE we crash and do a 50% retrace

I agree, that's why I'm holding

Blockchains can't scale. The market knows that already. No big woop.

Theer are some altcoin projects working on solving this issue. Let's see if they deliver.

Yeah, right.

It's all wonderful in theory, but has to be put to practice in order to understand whether it works.

So, yeah let the transaction volume go up and the spam attacks , and does the theoretical solution still work? 

And if such a theoretical solution ends up working so greatly, then why would it not be implemented into bitcoin.

I guess I am in the denial of a problem camp and in that regard, there is no one in bitcoin opposing better solutions for the mere sake of opposition - so if a better solution seems to be technically feasible and then is tested out to be practically feasible, wouldn't such a solution be implemented - except for the obstructionists? 

Segwit might be an example of this superior technical solution, and with the passage of time, we will see whether, if by hook or by crook, segwit ends up being implemented, maybe in spite of some seemingly strong and fakery political opposition to it on likely non-technical fakery grounds.  In other words, seg wit seems pretty fucking likely to be implemented, even though it may take a bit more time, because it is largely viewed as a pretty major solution to the scaling issue that currently seems to exist - including having some ability to address spam issues, too.

Such impatience!!!!

We have been having all kinds of action.. sure you want more and more and more... and no need to worry that it is coming  - because currently we are not in an agreeable place - even though sometimes there is a necessity for a little bit of consolidation and even faking outs

I used a linear chart specifically because it does show the exponential growth. If I'd used a log chart it would show closer to a straight line.

When people talk about the price rise being parabolic, they are comparing it to linear. Using a log chart assumes parabolic growth.

Because people are impatient. And I linked to the part supporting my argument.

But I can definitely recommend watching the whole video. Actually, the whole Bitcoin 101 Blackboard Series by James D’Angelo:
