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

[Rosewater Foundation]

Are these Mexico prices, brother. Are you still hitting the bricks soonish?

No. Just regular USD/CAD quotes from the usual sources.

I'm not going to Mexico until Thursday. That's why my presence here has been spotty lately. Busy making preps.

I hate selling any Bitcoin but I wanted some extra travel cash so I sold a little on Saturday. Not only did I luck out on catching a peak, but I got a great fee. Not only was it my first negative sell fee, it did it all in one transaction for one transaction fee.



Life is good.

I'm in a position where I'm preparing to sell some corn in February. I'm not tickled about these prices.

UPDATE     AND GOOD LUCK                   

[The_Real_Punisher]

Holy moly ETH is really going crazy. Looks unstoppable. Wish I had converted to ETH as BTC was at 19k

et tu Rosewater?

what is it with you pansies?  HODL goddammit!

I've been planning to take 10% off the table for years. It's time.

okex has published a note that they handle UBTC from now on.
Beside on ub.com they published the wallets, source and everything.

What else do you want ? Looks like a grand opening to me.

I'm thinking of the second distribution. I'm impressed anyone got any considering the evil minds behind it. I'm also impressed at how consistently priced all the forks are. The two I got rid were both in the 0.01 range as is UBTC.

Actually ... I was thinking about this. There are plenty of asks stepped to 0.02 0.03 0.04 etc... and a whole buch of bids at 0.01 ... I think people are taking position waiting for the first move,  i.e. a big pump ; maybe we have the chance to see it before it actually happens ?

Unfortunately as the electrum wallet failed to work properly, I need another 40 hours or so to get in that game

Should we recheck our addresses? Do we have distribution?

[jeffryluna]

How much effect would you guys think that segwit2x is going to offer? Im really not sure if I should still HODL or diversify now to altcoins. It's like I lost money already, but more gains the better.

[thisisntbic]

"Return to normal" just passed by and we may be on the way down to the floor.

But i thought the same thing around at 4k USD and was wrong

Haha, thank you for that. Too many times people make blanket statements on here without any explanation of their thought process or the logic behind it. Or even worse, a screenshot of a trading view with nothing else accompanying it. Those times I wonder what's the point, to prove they can take a screenshot?

There are a lot of smart people on this thread, it's the reason I've followed it for years; even before being able to afford my first bit of btc. For someone who isn't a trader by trade (ha), it's nice to have insight into why others on here think the price will move one way or another (even if they are wrong sometimes  )

[HairyMaclairy]

It’s the first week back in January you pack of pussies.  Oh no ! My coins are worth what they were worth 20 days ago!

Why don’t you have a look at what happened to Ripple, pretender to the throne?  Have a look at the scaling problems that Ethereum has, much worse than BTC.  For shits and giggles, have a go at synching the entire Ethereum blockchain and see how far you get.   Or maybe try creating a smart contract in Cardano and see what happens.

When the tide goes out, and it will, all these other pretenders will be naked. 

[HairyMaclairy]

That's "Mister Mangina" to you.

Have you switched to almond milk in your chai latte?

huh? I don't get what you mean. UB made a snapshot of the blockchain at block 498777  ... whatever you had in the chain at that height should be there. Mine are.

No. At the time of the fork they stole all mine. There was supposed to be a phase 2 distribution.

There was a very short phase 2 distribution (after which they stole the majority of coins).

Phase 2
Final round of Distribution of UBTC
The second and final distribution phase of UBTC for the Bitcoin community will end around noon (UTC +8) on 3rd January 2018.

[Rosewater Foundation]

I should have got in on phase 2 just under the wire. Don't think the distribution will take place until the 24th.

I'm not a computer scientist kind of guy and I don't like maths. My strengths lies in other areas of specialization.
I have always tried to do and study things I like, rather then pursuing a traditional career and that have lead me on to many interesting paths, crypto being one of them.

However, when I get a bank card I don't give a rat's ass how it actually works, and the bank doesn't tell me either. They just tell me how to use it. The same goes for just about everything else i buy, the TV salesman doesn't tell me how the TV works, just how to use it et cetera.
But when it comes to crypto it's always the other way around, every thread and info page talks ad nauseam about how it works, and very little about how to use it.
I for example no nothing at all about how to use segwit, and yet segwit have been talked about for ages. And I consider myself fairly intelligent. Just imagine then, when average Joe comes to bitcoin and is told to use segwit to lower fees. That won't tell him anything.
Why can't core make a information page that tells you how to use it? And make sure that page is seen among the noobs, and for that matter oldies like me without a degree in computer science. Why do they and everybody else have to talk non stop about incomprehensible technicalities?
I don't give a fuck about the underlying technology, I want to know how to use it.

^This.   This is how I got my insecure non-techie-inclined friends into BTC.  I reminded them that they've used plastic for years without ever a thought as to how it works.  Doesn't matter if you understand it or not.  And, yup. Now I have to teach them to use it.

But, how the people at okex got theirs to spend ?

[HairyMaclairy]

Garzik tweeted that the second distribution would happen by 24 Jan.  Have they been distributed?
