I'd be quite happy with lower temperatures. Winter is more enjoyable with proper powder snow, and summer wouldn't make me stay inside 24/7 if it didn't cause me to sweat all fucking day.

On that note, I've read about an upcoming mini ice age a few times. Is there any recent update on that that confirms or rejects it?

Vast question.

- climate is whether over 30 years. So it's too soon to tell.
- There was a global warming during the last 100 years of about 0.1°C/10years
- No more warming since 1998, once you remove El Nino/LaNina effects (which cancel each other in time)
- Sun is probably having a period of low activity, that doesn't change much the energy it sends to us, but less activity (= less spots) means less magnetic field, means more cosmic rays reaching our atmosphere, meaning more seeded clouds, thus more albedo and then cold coming in... but this is still a theory
- look here for the latest temps : https://moyhu.blogspot.fr/p/latest-ice-and-temperature-data.html#NCAR
- best site ever for these questions : https://wattsupwiththat.com/

Good morning Bitcoinland.

I see we've had a dip/correction back to where we were the day before yesterday... currently $10463USD/$13250CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

It's certainly not a buyable dip in my estimation, but it does serve as a healthy  correction just when things were starting to heat up a little too fast.

We don't need bubbles. We need sustained growth.

Is anyone else just fucking DONE with wintry weather? Can't fucking wait till the sailing season starts.
I actually prefer winter over summer. At some point you just run out of layers of clothes to take off and at that point you're still getting fucked by the sun when going outside. I'm so glad humanity has nearly perfected staying home.

The good thing about hot weather is that it encourages ladies and/or gentlemen, depending on your persuasion, to wear less clothing.
I was on vacation in South Beach a few weeks ago...hot girls in thongs everywhere.  Kiss
Going to Brazil probably next winter. Spending the spring and summer sailing. NZ is on the list too somewhere.

No, it's not. A mega whale dumping/shorting into their own buy walls is not a bullish signal in and of itself. It only signifies a new bottom, that could just be interim. Only time will tell.

Just so some of you newer guys understand, the deep pocket momentum traders that got in and out Nov '17 - Jan '18 are now gone.

Sure they still might have a long position, and may be incrementally buying, but in terms of mega volatility swing trading they won't be back with deep money until one or more of the following happens:

1. Most small investors and guppie traders lose interest from lack of price action/ boredom and move on

2. Technicals show a true long term bottoming out (a cup formation)

3. Another impending bullish development, like a sudden Bitcoin ETF announcement that comes out of nowhere. Though, expect massive FUD and volatility in the months leading up to such a surprise. The insiders will know about it 6-8 months in advance.

Keep in mind that in the interim, we could literally drift sideways for a year+.
Sorry Torgue...I disagree. I alluded to this awhile ago. You can feel the difference in market dynamics compared to pre-2017. Where as before we used to see huge volatility in the hourly charts now the price moves are very methodical. Cushioned is the word I think I used. The sure sign of deep pocket money accumulating on low volume imo.

Keeping in mind of course that things like math is still a theory. Hypothesis may be a better term.

Also also keeping in mind that it's the left that are going on about the weather.

Well I kinda implied that accumulation may be happening on the dl, but that doesn't mean that we're going to hit a new ATH in a month or two like people are expecting. They could accumulate like this for 6-8 months, hell even a year+. And we might see nothing but a sideways movement with a slight upward drift during that whole time.

Yes, the matter is highly political. leftists and globalists uses this as FUD to promote their agenda.

All of science and anything empirical is ultimately a hypothesis. No amount confirmations (that turns things into theories and laws in academia) can guarantee with certainty that we've figured something out, rather than just witnessing an infinitely unlikely event.

Nonetheless, I wouldn't be surprised in the least if industrialization had an impact on global weather patterns. In chaotic system even the tiniest perturbation can trigger massive macroscopical changes.

However, I'm not quite convinced yet about us having any significant impact either for two reasons. Namely, I haven't studied the papers so I can't possibly know if there are any systematic errors, and I see too much bullshit going on in the media to not be heavily sceptical. I do lean towards human emissions of CO2 causing changes in climate, mostly because I've worked with people who study precisely that, but even if that turned out true I wouldn't be all that worried about it. Capitalism will come to the rescue and figure out a way to keep us nice and cozy regardless of weather conditions. With nuclear fusion pretty much around the corner energy won't be a concern and with that sorted out the overall state of the planet should be irrelevant. Things might change drastically (e.g. underground, on- and/or underwater or shielded off cities with indoor farming), but I don't see humans disappearing unless we nuke ourselves to hell or get wiped out by some rogue asteroid.

Oops, typo. Fixed.

Just woke up. I should probably wait until my first coffee before posting.

$10463USD it is. Or was.

Greenbacks? I'm actually more concerned with loonies and pesos these days. There's little I use USD for.

I don't really expect any ATH until mid to late summer. Wouldn't really mind it much later either though. The longer BTC stays low the easier it is to collect more, and with prices heading into the 6 to 7 digits I'd prefer stocking up on more coins than having a larger fiat holding a lot earlier.

We were burning forests way before we burned coal and oil. In fact, any living creature affects the weather. I understand that at least one american state has legislation regarding cow farts.

But more importantly, co2 is not a pollutant. On the contrary, it's plant food. Which is food for everything else. The more co2, the more oxygen, the more life. It might just be a good thing.

Plus more than 95% of c02 comes from natural sources not human influence. "Climate change" is bullshit. It's just cyclical and perfectly normal variance.
