Is crypto done?

Always.

[conspirosphere.tk]

we're either in a triangle or an ascending channel with 3 higher lows and you bit-ches are panicking? What if we were going down for real?

[Searing]

The moment you realize you sold at the bottom.

I have not sold yet for bills. I always sell at the bottom. This does not bode well.......

on a side note

how soon will ATOMIC SWAPS for coin options be available on either Bitcoin or Litecoin....would that take care of all this Gov't silliness on raiding exchanges...in that

from what I heard (clueless here) that would kinda put a crimp in these 'we are gonna ban exchanges from our country' trends..in that you don't need exchanges for some of this

just saying...(then again, at the rate bitcoin core moves on coding....and/or lightning development....I may be p*ssing upwind and have not noticed yet)

It is just pissy that this "complete ban" in SK has been rebunked, but news articles from BBC and other sources are still freshly releasing with sensational "South Korean Bans All Crypto" headlines!  GRRRRR....

None of my stop losses got his in this last big dip,  hopefully things move up again.  Those were still going to provide enough gains to be life changing but now I'll keep them and let things move up for more :-)

Dominance slowly raising to 35%

Without fake news to generate FUD, the pump and dumpers would literally have nothing to "justify" the crypto price swings in the public eye. The public always needs "reasons" for large moves up or down. Always. Or at least the PnD'ers want to give them one, even though it is complete made up bullshit. We've seen this pattern over and over for years now.

The fact remains that whale investors are desperately looking for more supply of Bitcoin, and the only way they can GET more right now is to shake the tree and continue shorting. That's it. And since this will be a long slog, I expect this behavior to continue for another 6 months, possibly longer. They have to build as much supply as possible way before the Bitcoin ETFs come online. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if the ETFs get delayed/pushed back by the SEC just because the insider whales aren't ready yet.

Keep buying and HODL. Get your coins off the exchanges.

The volume of the BTC in all exchanger is keep increasing. I know that next week ia the real deal because we can see again that bitcoin will hit $19,000 per each. We should ride in the roller coaster.

[d_eddie]

Now that you have more time on your hands, we'd really like to hear that country song.

No sad country song. Sorry to disappoint

But but but... the Neumann thingy...
I think many of us would settle for a happy country song, or a country song about some rich cowboy who doesn't give a "ratt's ass"* about nuttin...

Retirement plan is back on schedule, now that I've pulled the trigger on the first batch. Want to get my liquidations done this quarter for tax purposes.

I wonder, do you feel any urge to buy it all back at $13,000 ? 

Nope. I feel the urge to retire more than buying back. I have "enough" BTC to last me this lifetime after I've done liquidating for retirement.

Seriously now, there's no need to rush the second batch, is there? With a handsome short-term upside potential such as now, I mean. Can't the taxman wait if necessary?

[B1tUnl0ck3r]

It was in reference to Kraken being down.

When will we be able to see how much our shorts are grossing? how long has it been down?

The next days are critical.

Looks like "Korea Bans Bitcoin" is the new "China Bans Bitcoin".

All we need now is a few confirmations from Proudhon and the circle will be complete.

Right now BTC is holding the line pretty well, but I am getting the sense of fear and desperation in both the BTC and LTC subs. It's starting to feel a bit... impatient over there. It's a very different sentiment to that one in December. Either we've entered a new phase in crypto where one is going to need to be patient as the market caps are now much larger, or these impatient ones will be shaken out at losses at much lower prices.

As long as it is fear, it is good.

If it is impatience only, we are bound to go lower still.

My feeling is that there’s to much bullishness (see altcoins + ETH ignoring the stagnant BTC price) to go much lower. But please feel free to dump into stronger hands  

[HanvanBitcoin]

Anyone knows when Kraken will be back online?

[ghandi]

They are probably off with our funds.

More rounds to go still. Can't retire for the next 20 years on $1M.

Going to have people buying into my walls. I'll set my price. Not going to dump on the market.

More rounds Bob?  We are doing 18 today?  I might only have time for 9 as I have to catch a flight out to Belize this afternoon.

My people will get with your people.

Yes.

We are still ok...lets see what happens over the next day or so. We are still in the ascending channel. February 1st is starting to look like a foci point. I cant get the granularity down enough for more accurate speculation.

This guy gets bitcoin.
I cant keep giving you prizes Torque. All the other kids might get jealous.

All this "movement" is 1k of coin moving around(on each major exchange). I think they are just tuning the algo's on the bots tbh. Kinda bruising the ego..all this FUD generated by electric sheep.

How was it with a paper wallet? If I have 10 Bitcoins on a paper wallet, I have to sent them all at once to the exchange? Otherwise the rest will get lost?

[cAPSLOCK]

My Bitcoin account is 100% Bitcoin.

I am still trying to figure out what it would mean if that was not true.

Good point.  Then there would be no spoon.

Could you concentrate your efforts on the forks please?

There is a step between having a paper wallet and sending it to the exchange.

You have to import your private key into a hot wallet before sending it to the exchange. When you send less than 10 bitcoins to the exchange, depending upon your hot wallet software, you will either get the remaining coins in a different address or it will go back to your original address (blockchain.info).

Either way, once you import your private key to a hot wallet...it's no longer secure. You need to go through the process to put it on a paper wallet again.
