I just finished reading the open letter, and, I must admit, it scared the hell out of me. I have already sold all my Bitcoin Cash. I really wish things will not turn out the way the letter describes!

Wondering if we all should have kept our BCH... Shocked

Jimbo and jbreher may well turn out to be the smartest guys among us.

Patience is key, indeed. I'm still keeping some just in case...

I sold them all (at a good price, got myself some more BTC out of them). Now everything's in cold storage, I can't be bothered to buy or sell. Will just HoDL it out.

BTW, looks like there's a mid-weekend Choo-Choo forming slowly... Grin

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Countach
Ok, that seems to be a reasonable default. I like the style, could never fit in the thing.

However since classic cars are variable, maybe a new Hurican could be a better solid benchmark. And then we can all show up at a dealership at the same time and buy every one in the state.

Because we CAN!

Still, I'm more of a Porsche man myself, but if I ever get to the point of having a driver I'd probably go for a Maybach. Had a friend who was homeless for awhile and had to live in his Maybach, still nicer than my house....

This is a civil war, an inside attack to the Bitcoin system using the power and interests of miners:

I know. I started following this religiously too after seeing your posts a few months back. Unless there is a big inflow of btc the price has no choice but to explode. I expect its the same story in the other big exchanges

You mean that after all of this discussion of "wave 5", we have not even arrived at it yet?Huh

 Angry Angry Angry

I am really ANGRY, if you cannot tell...

Idk. They say that you can see waves with some certainty only retrospectively, and I'm not an expert for sure.

hahahahaha...

Seems like both of us had been exaggerating a bit and perhaps joking to the degree that at some point we need to say something that is more grounded in reality...   

So, yeah, I agree with you that it is quite likely that waves cannot really be understood too well, except when looking back historically, and likely such assertion is even more true with something like bitcoin that seems to be exploring uncharted territory, immature, and possibly in a kind of s-curve adoption phase.




IMO I don't expect much resistance until the 9K, even because S2X seems to be a dud even worse than the other fork attacks.
And once S2X will be revealed as the fail that it is I see just a free highway going forward.


Well, you have a few main ideas going on here or at least various branches of your assertion(s).

I agree with the general suggestion that the upcoming forkening (if it happens) is causing some of our current price dynamics - and we likely need to attempt to specify exactly the forces to be able to recognize that the overall dynamics is causing ongoing and upwards BTC price pressures.

In that context, we still have about 11 more days before the proposed forkening, which is kind of a lot of time in bitcoinlandia, which could cause some thoughts that this particular price rise from $5900 to $7500 has come to us a bit "early".. and in that regard, it seems difficult that we would only have UPPITY for the next 11 days because that would likely be too much. and surely cause a kind of bubble (if not merely temporary)..

Even though I could be wrong, I also think that you are a bit premature to just throw $9k in there as our next resistance level.  Sure, earlier, I had indicated that I though that $6800 to $7800 was our next resistance range - yet we seem to be kind of floating right through it, even though we have not surpassed $7800, yet.  But I suspect that if we do get passed $7800 in the coming days - or even week, the next resistance range of $9600 to $13600 is going to be more than fair game, even before this proposed forkening.

Of course, if we go passed $13600 for this particular upwards price movement, then we are likely a bit fucked in terms of the level of any likely correction.. and gosh, I am not even really sure whether it would be fair to discuss what the resistance level might be after $13600, but would likely be in the $17k to $20k territory-ish.


So what happens after or during any actual forkening, if it occurs, would likely depend upon how we much upwards we had in getting to the forkening and also whether this segwit2x is actually a dud in fact and how long it takes to determine that it is a dud, if that ends up being the outcome (which I agree seems to be amongst the most likely of the scenarios).


I kind of agree with the scenario that there is going to be a decent amount of further UPPITY, in the event that the forkening is resolved quickly in showing the absurdity of the s2x proposition.


But a wildcard that I'm expecting is the implosion of Finex.

What the fuck is this?  A complete conspiracy?  Do you have any evidence at all that this is likely beyond pure speculation that Bitfinex is getting BIG again?

By the way, Bitfinex has to have a bit of confidence in their solvency and even their attempt to run a legitimate business since they had the balls to kick out all of the USA customers, including yours truely.  Maybe you are going to assert that I am naive, but if Bitfinex truely wanted to exit scam us, wouldn't they have already done it?  They weren't ready to exit scam us, so now they are building up business in order to exit scam us on their own convenient time line? 

Come on!!!

For the first time ever, bitcoin is now looking like a bubble to me as well. Its value shouldn't have been like this till at least the start of next year. $7500 in 2017? We're in a little bubble now, I guess.

I'm expecting some bad news now actually, pushing its value back to $5000... Roll Eyes

just hooked up my old asicminer block erupter USB sticks and started running them again. pretty sure i won't make a cent, but screw it.

course two hubs seemed to have died on me... 13 sticks not running. Sad

this, of course, means the price will tank.
