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

[jojo69]

Combining a bunch of small inputs of exactly equal amounts. Why would someone have hundreds of UTXO of equal amounts that are all basically dust? I don't get the use case here. Could be wrong.

old dice dust??

I tell you what, If I had wallets full of dust addys like that I would be pretty hot to consolidate them right now, we seem to be clearing down to 2 Sat/Byte.

You had me nodding all the way through your post, STT, and even asserting "Amen", even though I am not religious, until your last sentence.

>>>>>>>>Biggest problem right now is exclusion of participants by failure in the transactions fees<<<<<<<<,

Sounds like you are making up shit, here.

Sure there is some truth that transactions fees have been high recently, but get real... we had a spam attack going on and that spam attack is part of the creation of a false narrative to get folks to buy other coins and a bunch of bullshit mumbo jumbo asserting that bitcoin is broken and that it has a BIGGEST problem.   Get out of here with your "biggest problem" rendition.

Its a problem for me or many others not able to shift great amounts,  I dont know who is creating the problem and why but it has to be got past by any means necessary.   I've heard it could be spam or a couple of things, I dont doubt people could try to attack bitcoin for their own gains but in any case a solution has to be found.   
   Most people in the world are pretty humble, I always see the smallest of trades being ironically the most important and most genuine kind of trade possible.   How big is the Coke company and all its doing is selling sugar water in a can right, I want to see Bitcoin back to being able to handle the tiny trades and respecting the little guy.   

I still see FIAT as the biggest threat to crypto, the banks very much want to take over the idea and do it their way with a centrally controlled unit value.    They'll win if people become divided I think

Are you even paying attention?

Have you heard of lightning network?  Of course, some of it is already being experimented upon... it could take many years before it is microtransacting on the level of visa... but it is in the works.

Also, you mention that you want to send big amounts of bitcoin around, and you know that the problem is not with big amounts, because in terms of percentage it is not bad, especially if you are getting into the several thousand dollars arena.

Finally, fees are low currently and transaction times are fast currently.

I just looked in my blockchain.info wallet, and it is showing $.12 for regular fees and $2.02 for priority.  Seems fairly reasonable to me, and you could take advantage of these low fees if you want to move money around, at this time.

And now we dipped below 11k and it's still impossible to break 12k.

So everyone predicting that in January we would rise again was wrong.

Well ... I guess I will post the same thing at the end of February.

[JayJuanGee]

This evening I sent the contents of several bitcoin legacy addresses to segwit wallet addresses, and the balances of each of those addresses were between .002 and .07.   I paid $.12 fees for each of the transactions (5 satoshis per byte), and it took less than 30 minutes to confirm.. .  This would be nice to last, right?

I am not finding this breakdown of the line from the 17th convincing.

Unconvincing shake?

I’m glad Bob isn’t still waiting for 12.5k.

And here I am waiting for the market to take me out of my position at $11,350.

Or about to take a dive  

Edit: On another note, the market looks like the only buys and sells are from short term traders trying to make a few bucks. It seems demand from new entrants or long term investors has completely died off. I can see this on my local exchange vs the overseas ones. 2 months ago there was a 10% difference in price, that has now dropped down to <2%. Not good, this massive drop in demand.

The whales are letting the market to cool off after their pump and dump. Calculating profits   As soon as they're sure all weak hands are out they'll pump again.

We aren't even close to the weak hands being forced out yet. This is shaping up to be another 2014/15. Put the screens down and check back in two years

This is what I fear, though I do think BTC now is very different from BTC back then. So I don't see a greater than 80% correction like last time.

I was looking through recently confirmed transactions and stumbled upon this gem. https://blockchain.info/address/18AMPWtHW97ebTkSdBk9Jzv9gSZoh2og5D
These transaction involving this address look totally legit. NOT

I'm 100% sure we won't fall below 9k in any scenario. Masterluc also mentioned 9k as the bottom for now.

[HairyMaclairy]

Loaded indeed !

I have had hundreds of thousands of shitcoins.  I don’t think it’s quite the same feeling !

Edit:  it’s worth noting that the USDT / USD pair on Kraken is now heavily bot patrolled and locked to 0.995 cents USD.  Buy side also matches sell side in order book.

Why do you say that?

I think that any weak hands would have been forced out long ago, when the price dropped to 9k.
