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

[fragout]

The market is so thin and controlled by so few right now, they can literally paint a fake 'double bottom' and then just dump it.

They have been playing it (the market) like a puppet seemingly at will for over a week now. $1000 swings per day. And as far as I can, Bitstamp is his canvas.
The only good news is it seems they don't want the price to fall below $8k but also really don't want $10k+

And what makes you think this will change anytime soon ?

Maybe not very soon but When user count keep rising iT Will change overtime....
Its completly flawed the theory’s of rich getting more btc’s and be able of allways controling the market Just not possible in scenario’s Where user count rises....

What is happening in this thread now, I'm confused.

Same 'ol same 'ol in this thread. Bitcoin however is looking like some market movers want your cheap coins again. As was said..looks to be heading south.


This was what was going on until this morning..pattern look familiar?


There appeared to be some observer affect though as now it has gone another way. I am not feeling very confident about the price right now and I am sure that is exactly what is wanted...with that in mind I will wait until friday to see which way the market is going. #dyor #btfd  See ya.

Nice article in UK Financial Times about how central bank backed crypto currencies are a systemic risk as retail clients would flee the private banking system in event of a financial crisis to central bank crypto. Saying it would be particularly dangerous if only some central banks offered cryptocurenxy as this could trigger cross border flows.

And they have the nerve to call us a Ponzi.

I can’t think of anywhere you are more likely to die in a random hail of gunfire or be eaten by cannibals than being surrounded by 6,000 preppers.  

Take a yacht with food and medical supplies out into the Pacific. A monohull so you can take a knock down in a storm and pop straight back up again.

UPDATE     AND GOOD LUCK

would like to see someone win this thing before the summer ..... chilling ATH's in sunny days would be nice

What if miners had to pay a fee to mine but that was their entry ticket to a prize pool?  

That is pretty much how Bitcoin mining works.

Are you trying to imply that hardware and electricity costs could be called a fee?

I guess it depends upon what your definition of fee is. Not having specified to whom said free would be paid I merely assumed you only meant it in the generic sense of an expense.

Nah I agree with you. Miners already pay "for a ticket to a prize pool". Whether or not those costs are called fees is just semantics and doesn't change anything.

I can’t think of anywhere you are more likely to die in a random hail of gunfire or be eaten by cannibals than being surrounded by 6,000 preppers.  

Take a yacht with food and medical supplies out into the Pacific. A monohull so you can take a knock down in a storm and pop straight back up again.

Or a seastead. I'm starting to get excited here in French Polynesia about things moving forward on that front. Good things coming soon (tm).

I was thinking in the specific sense of having to pay a fee in Bitcoin. Possibly as a substitute for POW.  I have not given it any real thought and it’s possibly full of holes, such as Sybil attacks.

Any pictures you are able to share would be welcome. Even if it’s only baguettes and palm trees.  

What is the basic design?  Has anything like this ever been built before?

[yefi]

If I saw those balances above all moving at once I would expect the price to become too cheap.    It would then spike down and back up again, sharp like shutting off a tap suddenly.   After that the market tries to right itself in one direction but a more progressive way.
They could drip those balances in over 6 months, I really expect that but cant be sure with a liquidator exactly.   I know with Lehman brothers, that company will be 'operating' running down its various assets for decades probably.

Mentioned this before, but there's unlikely to be any more movements until there is a ruling on CR (civil rehabilitation). The trustee has made creditors whole with respect to their JPY claims - he has no reason to take further action.
