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

[Torque]

I have a newfound respect for the Winkles and their ability to not say a bunch of stupid shit.

Something I never considered. Good point.

Actually if you've not noticed, none of the big time Bitcoin investors have said anything during all this controversy. Because they know it is just a bunch of ongoing FUD drama designed to shake out the weak minded.

 Devil's advocate for a day here.  Maybe they're too scared to speak?

Good thing I hedged my shorts. Very suspicious how it hovered around $4k for an hour. Then a $100 pump in 15 minutes. Bitcoin is such a wild animal. I'd lose my shit daytrading it.

You must not be too familiar with the U.S. millionaire entrepreneurial mindset. They are anything but shy in voicing either their views or concerns.

Never fails to surprise..

It was quite the show!    

Price is getting ready to hit 5000 USDT withing this week , many sold bitcoin early today in huge panic sale manipulation .

Wences Casares talks about it here at the ten minute or so mark. His attitude is fairly relaxed but doesn't say a great deal.

 You make an excellent point.

Bingo. That's one of the things that keeps me reassured during the FUD storms and squabbles.

The really big players aren't "whale" traders. They're successful businessmen with vested interests and they know not to get panicked.

And they certainly are not telling us what they do... .

Are you happy, BOT, are you buying the DIP ? Yes ? Good boy !

[suzanne5223]

Probably gonna see a dip to 3.5k-3.7k

Beautiful bounce.

Looks like this rally ain't over yet and $10k is realistically in sight

This is wonderful looking at the chart the price surge from $3200-3700 range back on top to $4105 a minute and now $4136.
 Yes! The rally ain't over and this is the ability I love about bitcoin potential.

CAD almost didn't dip? How is that?

Is the community going to want to recognize BCH as the "one and only?"  

Time shall tell...

Some muddle-headed millionaire forked off an alt. What's all the excitement about? I don't get you sometimes.

I get that you don't get me. Then again, you don't get Bitcoin Cash. Perhaps you are too locked into this echo chamber?

It is not that 'some muddle-headed millionaire forked off an alt'. Rather, a significant fraction (absolute magnitude unknown) got tired of arguing over the proper route forward for Bitcoin, and did something about it.

Better yet, several scant days into the project, all is going according to plan. That's where the excitement lies.

Though you did get a bonus of between 5% and 40%, depending upon when you hopped off. And you're complaining about it. I don't get you sometimes. XD

1. He is a muddle headed millionaire. He's also an egotistical megalomaniac, "I was the first investor", I'm the biggest shareholder", "I know about economic code", "homogeneous is another word for privacy", etc, etc.

2. What did this "significant fraction" do? Ah yes, congested the network with spam to drive transaction fees up, which the muddle headed clown then proceeds to blame the core team for, banging on about a horrible user experience.

3. All is going according to plan? What, coordinated pumps of BCC at the same time as dumping BTC to drive the price of the shitcoin up so they get more BTC for it? Great plan, excellent.

Maybe we Canadians are less panicky.
