I predict that so much of late 2017's run up was by deep pocket institutional investors (and not retail)
You got it completely wrong. I talked to plenty of Goldman Sachs people who were crawling all over bitcoin and altcoins back when the BTC price was $200-800. The so called "institutional investors" aka banks were not the ones buying at the top, they were the ones dumping at the top. It was their pump and dump to fleece the retail investor. |

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

USDT is too scary for me. I don’t mind playing dead cat bounces but I prefer my cat already dead, not at the top of the cliff.

I do agree. That's why I only played with $100 just for the lulz. But hey, it worked and I am happy for that  |

Haha fuck. Just saw the candle to 20,000 euros on Kraken on 13 January for BTC/Euro. Fat fingers or short squeeze?!

That candle had no volume - so it was some kind of error. We were also at 6 cents usd on coinbase in april. |

I hope you didn’t lose too much to Mark. I was lucky. I had an account on Mt Gox but never got around to putting anything in it.

I left gox months before the collapse to margin trade on finex. Then I left finex days before it got hacked. Im really lucky (except the part where I obtained a neurological illness)

I have been very critical of Mark in the past, but I have come to believe that he never intended to hurt anyone.
It is still within his power to redeem himself.

Like giving away 10% of his fortune to make all his investors whole again in USD terms? |

I was caught by the Finex hack. Fortunately the vast majority of my BTC were off-exchange so I didn’t lose much in the end. |
