Nouriel Roubini - Lives in a bubble

Obviously knows nothing
"...What’s more – it is also used by criminals, for their shady business."..

This old chestnut - Oh duh, so is any bank or fiat dollar


.."He also said the blockchain technology should be separated from bitcoin"...


Still trying to wrap my head around that one


When you see this article it so obviously proves fake news

fun rant

Just think of the FUD fest ..days before the segwit2x+2mb fork.....will be epic ...in the amount of FUD being tossed about

great times for news media..you pump the FUD of the demise of BTC as a sure thing a week before to get eyeballs for your online ad's and sell newsprint

then after the fork

you do the same again only this time saying how epic bitcoin was to survive the fork etc etc

all that money....all that supposed news...all them nice Ad's seen for products and advertising revenue

rinse/wash/repeat

bitcoin will always have to DIE or be said to DIE ..forever...just to keep the cycle of news going to feed them Ad's and advertising $$$$

You'll like this page and the previous page.  At least I think so.

looking at the 2 hour optimism chart it very clear to me that we're going up again an should hit $7300 in the next few hours(also go litecoin go)

what will be price after SegWit2x , i believe price will fall between 4000~4500 USD

I think we are all in agreement there will be a drop. I think it'll be short lived.

I for one will sell my segwit 2x and bump up my bitcoin stash.(once safe to do so)

If more people think like me then everyone bumping up there stash by 5%-20% depending on b2x price then surely the price will go up right?

Just look at the charts beginning of August of this year and I'm expecting something g similar. But then again what the fuck do I know.

I was told by CPA it will be a taxable event if I sell BCH or any fork...if I leave it the hell alone for a year and a day and then sell at 20% capital gains the IRS
will likely just look at it as a past stock split

still looking into it..but the IRS really does not like money falling into your hands out of thin air...but then again could it be like kind...cyrpto to crypto

anyway, trying to figure this stuff out from a no guidelines from IRS kinda view

Hodl.. This is coming to a Lambo dealer near you (maybe)

best thing to do now is order Tesla 3; and one year later you can cancel order and buy yourself 10 lambo for price of one today

I actually did that recently. I sold 0.25 BTC for the $1000 reservation fee. Today the fee would have only been 0.14 BTC. Too bad you can get refunds in BTC.

Paradise Papers: Why offshore business is turned down
sloppy BBC is sloppy. history!=news

If anything, Panama Papers and Paradise Papers show that linking BTC with terrorism funding and drug trade are pure FUD.  The elites moved $10 trillions+ and hide them around the world with FIAT and all are done "legally" within the legal framework.

That being said, I still have nothing but the highest respect for the Sassoon family.  Being able to survive the Spanish Inquisition and Ottoman rule, made a fortune in Opium Wars, and still retain their peerage and fortune in the British upper crust, this is nothing short of a miracle.   I am sure that Baron Sassoon, being the previous head of G7 task force on Money Laundering, would not have done anything untoward.

I'm not going to dump aa quick as I did bch. most exchanges are taking 2x more seriously.to hard to call for me

What is good about segwit 2x? I really can't see it.

The good things about bitcoin is there is no one person responsible for it. It can't be stopped.

It's used now to hold as an investment. I personally don't give a shit about buying things with it or transactions speeds, big blocks etc and I bet all the big money thinks the same.

I'm not as into the whole technology like some of you guys here. For me it's an investment. 99% of the people buying btc are the same. Do you think Richard Branson buys his coffee with btc?

Again, what the fuck do I know. I'll give you a clue. Not much.

Are we heading back to 7500 ?

[AlcoHoDL]

I've just transferred 10k € to Kraken to buy some more BTC, and now we're Choo-Choo'ing...

WTF?

I'm with you. I work for Branson lol . he's done a lot for bitcoin's validity

Not yet - I think the Rosewater Foundation just placed another one of their smaller buy orders. The big one is still to come.

Why you focusing on the down?  Does that make any sense?

Currently we are going up, and you are referring to down.  Seems kind of irrelevant, no?

Another way of making my point is that the amount of down is going to depend, in part, on the amount of up.  If we are currently at the top, that is different from whether we get a top above $8k  or a top above $12k or a top above $20k, then after we reach the top, then the topic of the correction would thereafter become more relevant and easier to answer.  I am thinking that your $4k to $4500 correction is possible, but it also a bit of wishful thinking.  Hopefully, you have enough coins to enjoy the upwards before the downwards, instead of focusing on something that seems to be a low probability speculation and might not happen at all.

All I ask is they pump it to 10X or 20X first, lol.

I appreciate this part of your latest mindset RJC.  

Something like this:

I think x

BIG money thinks x

I am BIG _____ x .


I am sorry to announce that probabilities are now greater that you will be hanging up your daily work head gear to ponder piña coladas approximately 18.4786% sooner than previously estimated (I threw in a percentage to trick you into reading my post...     ).

I am still wondering whether the risk of hodling through the fork is worth the nerves

First they (their customers) gonna get screwed badly by honey badger and then they gonna complain to have the FED-SEC and the rest of the so called regulators to impose
regulations = destroy price discovery on the exchanges. And we might very well end in the same deplorable position as GLD.

[rjclarke2000]

Surely hodling through all this is the best thing.

I mean, you'll have both coins.

I personally can't see 2x taking over at all. BUT in the freak occurrence it does you'll have both anyway.

If anyone is that worried just don't dump anything at all.

See how all this plays out.



Can someone tell me why 2x will succeed??
