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

[lightfoot]

Sucks to hear about Steam, my kid bought a number of hats years ago on Steam and now laments that he could buy a small car with that amount of bitcoin. Life's like that.

That said, $13,300? This is beyond crazy but an amazing thing. My attention to work is just like um.... dropping.

BTC is no longer accepted on Steam 'cause of high-fees and unstable price

They don't know how to use BTC, that's the actual problem. Now they act like they became smarter, whilst Lightning Integration Tests were all passed and RC candidate is almost ready.



My body is ready.

Fake news. BTC is $16,410 now.

It was the most humiliating photo my partner has ever taken of me.

The poll is now looking bearish.

The demand in Korea is real. Now leading by over $3k per coin.

So today I got a call from someone who wanted to buy bitcoin from me. Bad but understandable english, sounded like a person of some kind of color, and he wanted to trade 30-50 coins.

He sounded exactly like a disney villain. Like Jafar levels of evil. Told him that no sir I can't handle that many, in fact can only handle one at a time. Sadly that was not enough for this distinguished gentleman, so he went off to find someone else to deal with.

I almost don't feel like doing in-person trades anymore. I mean it's almost job-level income but sooner or later something is going to go sideways and I don't need it the way things are going, and I can always go back to it if I ever have to.

Also got a deal tomorrow where I'm making almost a grand, and I barely feel like spending the 10 minutes to do the exchange. Not sure this kind of fast wealth is healthy for me.

Why not? Just means you're getting to a point where you'll have whatever time you need to to whatever the hell you want. Sounds pretty good to me, considering how much the world offers to explore and learn.

I've heard that as the amount of wealth goes up the incentive to pick up a penny, quarter, dollar, twenty on the street drops. At this point when you're lazy enough that picking up a K is kind of eeh, something is going on with one's values system.

This is interesting.

And in the time it took me to play a simpsons clip, Bitcoin jumped $300 to 13,600. This is so fucked up.

Too bad he has no SegWit2x that he can cancel himself to time another wash trade/tx spam/propaganda attack.

This is getting silly.

I do not even count my money anymore, need a tax-lawyer soon :-D
First world problems!

This is indeed crazy. I've started looking for a tax-laywer/accountant for the first time in my life. I think they're going to be busy these next few months with approaches from bitcoin m/billionaires.
