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

To all the HODLers:

If you didn't give them your coins on the way up, then you shouldn't give them your coins on the way down.

Cheers to your hodling power! Buy the dips. Next year will be even better.

[Searing]

Looking forward to the next upward surge, which I sense will come VERY soon, it will be BIG, and it will be the new FLOOR for next year's rally to conquer 6-digit-land!

Keep telling yourself that an (currently) unuseable asset will do an upward surge

Quick find more fools who believe in HODL and CHEAP COINZ, all the indian taxi drivers are already invested

I sense 'bitterness' of the flavor of 'missed boats' ...alas, I know the landlocked sway of that sea sickness...

(I remember almost pulling the trigger on Eth ICO at 999 Eth for 1 BTC...when BTC was around $400 usd last year) Ack!

The bitterness will pass, for those that believe in the HODL fairy....., just click two mice together and close your eyes and

mumble....unicorns/fairy dust and pixies....3x and your HODL powers will increase! (you do this in public around people that

know you are HODL'ing and you can NEVER sell....just to prove your pixie dust point...)

but anyway, a few good wins on a couple bucks on BTC pumping...and some rest and you will be fine and in the HODL camp

with the rest of us foo....er I mean 'enlightened types' (don't take away my 'denial of reality' it is all I have)

[gentlemand]

Holy Sh**

Didn't expect it to get this low ...

Why not? A few short weeks ago people were predicting these prices for the end of the decade still.

What, 15,300? Yawn.... Wake me when it hits 10k.

Well i HODL, but only profits...in the current situation I will not let my hard earned money be "at risk"
Hell, i got 0.5 BCH yesterday for free...it should be all for the fun in the game of greater fools

Our fiat funding partners are also experiencing strain.  Most were not prepared for the massive spike in transfer processing and current delays are outside of the usual range, especially for domestic USD.

You see ? It's always the bank ...



But customers surge :

Each of the past few days has produced 50,000 new account registrations and 10,000 new support tickets

Masterluc said we should test $10.000 in order to go to $100.000 by summer'18. So... wake me up when we hit 100K

Exactly. I often open this thread but it loads an earlier page. 16909 to be exact and the first post i see is

:-D
$2000 inkominggggg^!

Thats way back in May so it kinda puts things in perspective. During the massive rise since, my biggest fear was what the correction would look like and if it would be Gox scale. What is happening now is slow and measured and triggered by Bcash pump/coinbase etc, but was needed anyway.
Still bullish

Even $10k would only be mildly disappointing in the short term. I was ripe for a holiday break anyways, so this is quite alright.

bunCh of paniking pussies. get a grip the trend is up

[Crypto Zacker]

Hope to reach 7.5k, however 5k would be great, but at the same time worrying.

If 5k support zone is breached, well...

Also, 270k unconfirmed transactions atm. If this increase even more, start seeing people panic because they can't get their bitcoins back. And you now what happen then, fud starts, greater unconfirmed transactions stocking and fees going to the moon.

Ha ha.. that would be sweet... $2000 I better get all of my cash sent to the exchange, just in case put a buy order in COINBASE at $500 and may get filled!!!  ha ha ha  

[sirazimuth]

well I guess folks need to balance checkbooks and pay credit cards after
splurging on xmas presents because of new sudden crypto-wealth.
This may apply to yours truly ,but I'm not saying....

This holiday season is a time of giving.

So give the gift of... ah fk it, just selfishly buy more bitcoin for yourself.

You'll thank the universe by next XMas.

Guys, please don't.

We can occasionally talk about alts, but we have a long standing disgust and disdain for XRP (aka CentralizedPreminedBankerCoin) here that goes back years and years. IMO out of all the shitcoins, Ripple might be the worst. And it just won't die.

Noted!

I think almost all of us here are > 80% BTC vs. < 20% alts anyway. So alts rising (or falling) has only fun/news significance (for me at least).

Now let's get back to BTC... Personally I don't worry too much (yet) about the drop. It was long overdue and it's a breather for the beast. Looking forward to the next upward surge, which I sense will come VERY soon, it will be BIG, and it will be the new FLOOR for next year's rally to conquer 6-digit-land!

Its been a good day for me - managed to increase my BTC holding substantially by selling so many alts - great trading conditions

 I have some capital sitting on Kraken because I'm waiting for verification and it would be a great time to buy more BTC but... Kraken sucks!!!!

Let's be fair. They are slow, like bread turning into toast, but they don't outright steal from people and they don't fuck around with arbitrary withdrawal limits.

$5k would make me feel very warm and fuzzy.
