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

[SERVERIA]

I wonder where all those hero and legendary trolls proclaiming doom are now?    Nobody's buying that fud anymore?

Breaking out? I think 4k is incoming.

What about adopting a parrot? We are all pirates, after all. This way we can save our fingers some effort.

Way back machine engaged.

The way back machine. It takes you way back.

I'll admit. I got greedy. I lost over 1300 Bitcoins in that fiasco. In principal - several times that if we include my (so-called) gains.

Not much for nostalgia on that one.

Shiiiiiiit.

I lost 30 :/
Funny thing is I thought the savings and trust was dodgy af, so invested in another one. Turned out that was investing in BS&T... really should have read a bit more

What did I just see?!

What did I just see?!

Business as usual

[Denker]

And we're back to 4k!
Let's see if we can stay above that important level now and continue the ride.
I hope we move up again, step by step to at least 4400 where I expect next level of resistence.

game on!

gaming companies becoming crypto-banks, in-game currencies/tokens competing with fiat ... shit's getting weirder than fiction and the 'pros' don't know which direction the next blindside is coming from

Flux, liquidity ... are always good for the buyers.  
High volume, High price.

This sounds just like an evolution of the Magic the Gathering -> MtGox cycle. No complaints if Willybot plays along as well

Hey I'm not a Junior Member any more ! Yippee - it only took 4 years.....

Actually yeah thinks makes a lot of sense. The South Koreans are some of the biggest online gaming fanatics in the world. Hell, didn't they basically invent the whole idea of the 'internet cafe'? So those big gaming giants are probably seeing big money in their eyes if they were to integrate in-game crypto payments for awards, accessories, and other stuff people want. Like with WoW gold or Linden dollars.

But instead, let's all just use Bitcoin. Mmmkay?

I don't see this as a major push yet, at least until the Chinese fud settles.

... well that explains a lot, your grasp of economics is as shit as I suspected ... you got lucky, not greedy chump.

Dude, do you even ponzi?

YEAH!!!   Our current BTC price range is still $3,400 to $4,300.. so yeah, even though I am getting a little excited about the BIG jump of this latest $100 plus jump - touching on $4,100, I think we gotta be careful about getting overly anxious until we either break out of the price range or get really close to breaking out of the range.  

Of course, there are other theories out there, too (more bearish, that's right), and I think that some of the bear predictor FUD spreading folks did not really expect us to go anywhere meaningfully above $3,700.. .so we are doing pretty good from that less bullish perspective, no?

Besides, they can keep everything offchain - basically no transaction costs for micropayments - even before LN takes hold. I think it's going to work out fine.
