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

[sirazimuth]

As much as I'm loving this price action, something still tells me a big short is coming.

And there's a reason why they launched futures in December, right before Xmas. They know that people have money then.

Yes, but are your sources confirmed?

no dumps even being bothered with now. the game is up. and its going up.

Oh proudhon, where art thou?

So let's say I have more than 10 BTC and less than 20.  (cost basis around $600)

Two women in my office have watched me go nuts all year with the price increases.  I wish they bought in, but like most, they just feel like it's appreciated too much, and it's too late for them to get in.  Plus they don't have as much extra cash just lying around.

I thought of giving them a paper wallet for Xmas with some BTC in it, and thought $100 apiece was generous.  If I gave them both .01 BTC, I'm just wondering -- do I seem too cheap since it's such a small part of my stash?  I mean, I don't want to part with any of it, and now their gift is worth $130.

Normally I'd spend like $25 on them.  Not close close friends, just good work friends.  

What's my play here.

Do it at the office party. Have them download a wallet to their phone. Gift them $25 worth in real time from your phone.

Use fresh fiat.  Don’t touch your own stash.

One bitcent is going to be worth 250 usd or so before Christmas, and they won't understand the value of your gift too.
As said, just give them 25 usd or less of bitcoin on an app wallet (like 1 mbtc), PLUS the usual useless shit.

The closer we get to 20k the higher the chances 10k holds...
I might sell a fraction passed 20k and then hodling like we are at war! bring it on with the dip!

I bet you we hit $20K USD/BTC before Coinbase verifies me for a $6M limit.

Their customer support is utter shit.

Gemini is the way to go! Awesome service too, but no credit cards

Gdax ticker appears to be having a seizure

Edit OMG the bugs bunny gif

Pump is far too feverish and managed looking. Only pumpers benefit from a pump like this. Somebody is pursuing an agenda.

I'm increasingly convinced that this is what's going on:

[hazukison]

BTC to $45,000 is my goal! I only have 0.44 worth of BTC but if it hits my goal then I might be able to afford a deposit for a house when I finish my final year of uni! (It has 6months to make it lol...) A man can dream!

I'm confused about pumps and dumps.

So it means

I have 1 million

So sell 1 mill of btc for very low price to make price go down and then buy back when price is fully down

Why not wait till 1 million

[Wekkel]

Just float on whatever the market will be doing. $45k is not impossible. It's 'only' 4.5x away which - in a bull period - is a breeze in Bitcoin terms.

How long have you been waiting? Are your coins onsite or will they accept offsite wallet proof?

[CristiTCM]

Waiting for a new a china ban to buy more bitcoins

Whatever floats your boat but don’t sell all of it. You will regret it.
