I'm thinking the person putting in the $12 million worth of bids is trying to win the ATH thing and collect the .25 BTC.
Rigged!

someone sure wants dem bitcoins
Actually they probably just want to sell them for a higher price. ... yeah someone has plonked $12 million down to bid up bitcoin so he can get more fiat ... ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1512965.0https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1512965.msg15222331#msg15222331I would think after all these years of watching walls, you of all people would understand what they represent. Elwar commented on that very thread about it 2 posts later. Edit: My guess would be they are gathering up large sums of fiat on their short positions they are opening. Getting ready for the weekend dumping. Looks like he is walking it up just like a classic whale pump and dump.

$15 million now and it is one guy or group as the stairway of walls are moving up with the price at the same time. btw Is this type of thing ever done in the stock market. I know it would take a much larger investment or are there some rules in place to prevent this type of manipulation?

Bet CLOSED! Let the game begins... Thank you all for supporting this game and I wish you all good luck. Let's make contact when ATH touched. Final list: snip
Is it too late to give a reason? My reason is law of 5's 27 = 2 + 7 = 907= 0 + 7 = 7 2017 = 2 + 0 + 1 + 7 = 109 + 7 + 10 = 26 2 + 6 = 8 8 = 2 32 + 3 = 5 Simple Law of Fives! http://discordia.wikia.com/wiki/Law_of_FivesNo everybody with A date can give he's reason only no new once..... need to much updates on the list and take to much space on the WO page each time ......

The dude has enough money to push it over the ATH. Perhaps he's hoping for a short squeeze and has a lot of bitcoins to dump at a high price.

Or maybe he wanted to buy because of the BIP91 locked in, but had to wait till his money got added to his exchange account ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

This has been me all summer.
Friend: Hey I guess I should have listened to you this whole time when you told me to buy bitcoins, good for you. Can I ask you a question?
Me: Sure (thinking: ok, time to point him to a bitcoin exchange finally)
Friend: I've been reading about this new up and coming cryptocurrency <insert alt here>, do you think I should invest in this new coin?
Me: *facepalm*
LOL! Yeah I think many of us here made similar experiences the last few months.Very often I get told by the people who would like to get into the crypto space, that Bitcoin seems to be too expensive for them.Even if you tell them they can buy just fractions of it on a regular basis, they still tend to buy some shitcoins because they can't afford a "whole Bitcoin". Human psychology is definitely a factor here. Maybe at a certain point of value ($10k/BTC ?) it would be smart to switch to smaller units in terms of pricing.

Yeah, actually I´am wondering why we did not switch to mBTC as basic unit yet ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) It makes no huge difference, but I´m confident this would give the price an extra boost, just of the psychological factor. Buy 1 BTC for 2800$ or buy 1 mBTC for 2.8$...

Couple of days ago I've understood the reason behind this claim. People think they have to buy at least one bitcoin. They're just not aware that they can buy part of a bitcoin.

Human psychology is definitely a factor here. Maybe at a certain point of value ($10k/BTC ?) it would be smart to switch to smaller units in terms of pricing. I have thought many times about the change of unit of value for display on exchanges from BTC to mBTC.... Not sure what would be the effect. It would seems as if the price of Bitcoin would be "cheap" but, on the other hand, maybe people would think having a few hundres or a couple thousand is a LOT and not feeling like having to hoard more? Also, the media news would not have that much impact as they have now each time BTC cross a thousand boundary..... Donno, maybe it is ok to leave it as it is.

BIP141 is at 97.9% now.
Things couldn't be going more smoothly.
BIP91 activation/enforcing coming in less than 24h.
And in less than 48 hours begins a whole new week of deposits coming into exchanges to buy moar.

I have been telling people about bitcoin since 2013. A few friends listened and hey have made a lot of money. Most people back then had little or no interest with the exception of a small percentage.
Yesterday one of my staff told me he had bought some XRP. He said he relt the 20 euro charge for buying his bitcoin was too high. Not sure where he was looking. He only bought around 200 euros of XRP so a 10% fee does seem a lot. I told him he needs to buy more. Lol
A bus driver that comes in my work also told me yesterday he bought £250 of Bitcoin a few weeks back. He said he is still about £15 down so he must have bought at the top. I told him not to stress and all will be good in he end.
Slowly slowly it is happening. People are interested when they know I use Bitcoin. They want to hear what you have to say.
Gentlemen

Slowly more will join and see its potential. I go to the university of applied sience in the Netherlands and gave my fellow students a 30 minute presentation about bitcoin (at that time BTC price just passed the gold price). Many had heard about it but only a few knew exactly what it was. They where all verry interested. Many even started buying bitcoin ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) The price of BTC went up allot since then and they keep asking/thanking me weekly
