And below 11k again. Welcome to the weekend dump

Yes ...

If this keeps up much longer I think 10-12k will be the peak for Bitcoin unless mass media pulls in the masses as they did last December. And this was a one-time thing as we all know.

I think we all knew $11k wouldn't blend.

The Ethereum network is “largely undocumented“

“We build sophisticated systems on top of this infrastructure and it is important people make sure that the infrastructure itself is secure,” she said.

Meanwhile the long / shorts ratio is rising as more shorts are closed.  The indicator will turn bullish in another 12 hours at the current rate.

Mark my words, before too long banks will be offering to hold your bitcoin for you (securely of course) and transferring between fiat to btc, and back, with little to no fee as incentive.

meanwhile Rabobank wants our bitcoins

Store your cryptocurrencies in a wallet hosted by a trusted party and within the secure online banking environment.

So a researcher named Goldberg explores attacks on the Rube-Goldberg machine network.

Classic.

A bunch of crypto elites are trying to form a crypto utopia in Puerto Rico.

I think I'm having a deja-vu thingy....

I stopped reading at 'Brock Pierce'. That guy is like a mini-me version of McAfee. Total train wreck.

Agreed.
When I got to the part about kissing feet and blessing a crystal or
some such nonsense, I was like...ok, that’s enough of that drivel...

And I thought I was being overly conservative. 

02/04/2018

I am a month behind you and I thought I was too optimistic... I still do.

You are probably right. it appears $10xxx for 2018 will give us deja va of $2xx in 2015.

hope that is does give us this deju fallen from +40-50k range to 20xxx range for a few months in 2019     however i'm to allways very optimistic in the price

It's a hell of a fight between bears and bulls now, 11K is a real pain in the ass

But usually the volume to decrease some more in the weekend, so expecting the price to drop a bit to 10K, we won't be seeing 11k in the weekend i think.

10,8k again

and now the weekend dump....

Probably below 10k soon and the cycle continues.

Should I go back in the thread and quote all the people how said bitcoin would be risen again in March?

 That would make it seem as though you're gloating.  Anyway its early March; let's not give up on it already.

[Torque]

I don't see much down from here. I think we are seeing accumulation again. We could wash trade sideways for months.

[JimboToronto]

Good morning Bitcoinland.

The battle for $11k continues... currently $10849USD/$13956CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

This could take some time.

and now the weekend dump....

Probably below 10k soon and the cycle continues.

Should I go back in the thread and quote all the people how said bitcoin would be risen again in March?

Which cycle are you talking about? The one in which the price of Bitcoin has risen in the last year, the last month, the last week and the last 24 hours?

Bitcoin rising in March? So far it has. Mind you, March is only 2 days old. It's a little early to call.

What's the matter? Miss the chance to buy when it was ridiculously low in early February? Wishfully dreaming  for another dip?

Noobs, sigh.

[rhamzter]

13k here we come!

... well, like, eventually ...

I hope so, price now was not stable in the market so I think it's a long road before reach $13,000.

looking forward with that amount.

I wish I had one of those, then I wouldn't have lost 4 terrabytes worth of old sentimental grade data by having two hard drives die simultaneously for no fucking reason.

Ugh. This is tragic to hear. Coming from an IT background in a former life, I've learned about having redundancy for redundancy.

eg: All my main storage is via two Thunderbolt Promise RAID chassis DAS units running RAID5, that are backed up hourly to two Synology NAS' with massive storage capacity with Synology Hybrid RAID.

I've, blessedly, not had a catastrophic failure that I could not recover from within a few hours, over the last 10 years.

With no irony or snark, I'm sorry for your losses.

Without commenting on your particular case, often folk put together their multi disk / redundant setups with drives bought at the same time from the same manufacturer and so from the same batch. When one goes, another may not be far behind. It may be one tiny extra bit of security to try and avoid that.

Edit: Wouldn't want to try to teach anyone here to suck eggs
