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

[BitPirate]

waiting a while for our wire to go through at Bitstamp. my deposit seems to have cancelled itself, which is odd. My wires are usually dead fast. Looking on China QQ, a bunch of people planned to arb the gap with profits too, but can't. Quite a few people complaining.

bitstamp just cost me a lot of money to cash out and now i find they're having problems.  I lose, big time.

I am butthurt right now fully admitted, however the recent events of the past few days do not help show this is not a ponzi scheme because the net effect will be the same.  Late comers spending almost 1000$ for ONE bitcoin will walk away burned publicity will be terrible. Who wants to deal with the stress of pump and dump.  Who will put what they can afford to lose when it is certain they will lose it if they're not quicker than exchanges f'ing up or dumpers dumping.

I'm leaving my profit in BTC (60%) and withdrawing my investment (assuming bitstamp doesnt go under tomorrow cause thats where my fiat is, i frankly wish i cashed out on gox and waited it out).  I'm not fully cashing out because (i'm probably an idiot) I do believe in the idea deep down and thats why this is so painful to watch and gets me so emotional.

Greedy apples doing DDOS and dumps on exchanges to serve their desires do not bode well for a system which relies on trusting the community to preserve value. Maybe long term this will smooth over but I can't see anyone buying like they were a few days ago anymore, Top was 900$

I'm not doing my part to crash it, just took my original money back and whatever happens to my BTC value so be it.  Very dissapointed, but not sure why any of us expected this time to be different

Bitstamp is at $475

Your not alone mate, sitting all in BTC atm bought in at 700usd, but that's bitcoin for you. Give it a few days, maybe weeks, maybe months but it will be back up there. Maybe when it's $30k per coin, we will laugh about how emotional we were over a few hundred bux

What? Now Stamp is above Gox? Stamp does seem to be the most stable one out there

the knife, it is falling

[seanneko]

I've gone from 100% bull to 100% bear since earlier today. I fully expect it to be way down when I wake up tomorrow.

Better start thinking up a witty comeback when people at work tell me about how much money I've "lost".

Then don't cash out. Price is just what others are offering to buy your Bitcoins. Why give a fuck is that's $500 or even $1? Just don't sell!

It's not a ponzi, there are just sufficient people that want to sell their Bitcoins for ~$500 right now. The only "negative" this brings you is lack of liquidity. You shouldn't have invested with money needed for liquidity anyway so that shouldn't be a problem. If you believe in the underlying thesis (you say you do) hold (and try to accumulate more).

If it is ddos, then ddos will continue because it works. Ddos are going to buying bitcoin cheap.

Dude you havnt lost anything! The only difference between your BTC worth right now is time, because it's inevitable that we will surpass $900 next time, so just wait it out

Stamp is stable because nobody can access it

[miningnew]

Sad seems like its over again ;( , already  .

[Wekkel]

Wait for double bottom if you are not in a hurry to buy.

[mmitech]

Stamp is having Problems with their banking software as they stated in their news release, They said that it will take couple of days to fix, so no money in and no money out, this is why the price didn't spike with Gox and actually it was the first time when BTC-e price was higher than stamps for at least $40 te past few days, it as strange but when I saw the news release everything was clear to me.

[gandhibt]

There has been 2,5 days that the price has been higher than now. How the fuck can you people be all bear all the sudden? How happy you would have been 1,5 days ago if you could have bought coins at these cheap prices? Well, THE TREND IS NOT BROKEN, you can still buy your cheap coins.

EDIT. apparently someone listened to me at stamp =)

[MahaRamana]

If the double bottom at 475 holds, that will be very bullish for the next phase

Everyone turned into a bear already, which is also very bullish. That would mean we have bottomed.

Bitstamp keeps our hands strong, they're just looking out for us.
