People that invest in the markets are not interested in the companies just the return on their investment.

For bitcoin to grow and achieve mass adoption a small group of fan boys isnt going to cut it and you need large inflows of cash.

Nope, no growth here. Gonna have to try harder fan boys:

Those figures really form a nice ponzi triangle when you factor in the user base and coin distribution .

From fully erect to limp and tender in a matter of hours...go bitcoin go. Looks like a corrective rebound is forming with indicators at or near bottoms. #dyor

On today's episode of satoshis.place.

Stay weird, Bitcoinlandia !

bitcoin is all about lambos and penises.

oh, and about bottoms of course.

[jojo69]

hmmmmm

so it turns out 1 USD is worth .000147 BTC

who knew?

[BitcoinNewbie15]

We do seem to be tracking frightfully close to the accelerated 2014 model.

This is very interesting, it would make sense due to all the exposure Bitcoin has seen this bubble vs all the previous bubbles. I hope this is the case, and if we are indeed forming a triple bottom this could be likely.

[JayJuanGee]

I do have a pressing question however..  I believe we need to have these particular bottoms quantified and rated from left to right..what say you gentlemen?

For me..I have to say I appreciate the one on the far right the most..  Not sure if its that smile that accompanies it or the slight knock knee'edness...

I'll take the plumpest one, on the left. 

I'm stuck with the one in the middle, since I am a slow poke.  Poor me.

I think I am stuck with another one and I am going to keep the pic with me... .

I tend to be a perma-bear, but this most recent crash feels really artificial.

Playing devils advocate a little.  What is exactly an "artificial" crash?

 Got real fucked up on screwdrivers yesterday. I think one of my drones flew off with muh boots.

 Probably somewhere over Arkansas by now.

Haha i had a similar time last week .... a birthday fuck up on booze happy i recoverd very well Just in time to witness dzeee DUMP and Going to start a BTC session right now let luck be on my side

Only way to win, IMO, is to HODL right now.

The only way to win is to HODL all the way up to at least $50k. At least I'm not selling a single satoshi until then.

[JayJuanGee]

A bullish recovery scenario on the weekly might look something like this all be it a bit exaggerated.

I also prefer a scenario of a blend between 2013 correction and some kind of truncated 2014 move. That would indicate a 6-9 month slow period with price lingering in this zone, perhaps also lower, and an ensuing rally into 2019. So far, it is not the worst correction ever  

Who knows what to call the possible situation of a scenario that is not quite like 2013 and not quite like 2014?  Perhaps a compromise?  Perhaps a means that everyone can claim to be right or wrong?

By the way, we have already been experiencing about 3 months of BTC price bouncing largely between $6,500 and $10k, which is approximately a 50% range or 1/3 the value... In 2015, we had about 8-9 months of largely $210 to $300 - which is a very similar range over a longer period of time....

If BTC prices had recovered above $12k in March or April, then perhaps this whole consolidation may have already been over, yet competing theories might assert that the consolidation would last longer, under such a scenario. 

So, if BTC prices are currently hovering in this $6,500 to $10k range - then resistance might become stronger in the $10k area, but cause stronger support, one BTC prices return above $10k.

Surely, I have little clue as to when such a break out would occur, but I am thinking that it could take a minimum of 2 months in order to have enough strength to actually sustain a break out above $10k.

On the other hand, there continues to be a possible alt coin - shit show -  dragging down factor that brings both uncertainty and fuel for possible explosive BTC price movement in either direction.
