Nice step by step explanation!
I was always just copying the initial link source and that sometimes worked and sometimes don't (here). Good to know that's the right way to do it, thanks!

Wow, that was quick. I wasn't sure if I made it too easy or not. I thought I would be able to fool people as I panned out to the Korean restaurant (with Chinese on the sign).

Oh, fuck, we are poorer. What are we gonna do?!?!
There must still be some room in Rosewater's cabinet. Ham-handed Nazi pump and dump on all our heads. Put a happy face on it and call it Wilson. PS. The Gestapo knows all about the cabinet.

Wow, that's a fucking huge pile of merits, thanks! I am not sure if it was easy or not, maybe some bit of luck. My walkthrough is as follows: There were two potentially identifiable signs on the cropped picture: Galleria and what seemed to be a money exchange shop. Galleria might be a common word but it does look as it could be a coffee bar. I was expecting to find out what was that galleria thing which presumably would have numerous instances around the world and then cross-check with a location near a money exchange business.... But it were only one location and it was in Bangkok (which also made a lot of sense in your case). For finding Galleria I searched by "Galleria coffee", then switched to google images and selected the one with the same exact logo.... and boom, only one location! Then google street it, cross check it with the money exchange shop and other common features to get the same angle of the original picture. It didn't take more than a couple of minutes in total but that's because the galleria sign ended being pretty much unique around the world. Other than that it would have probably been way harder. It is interesting to note how the Bitcoin ad and sign is not there in the (older) google street picture though... but the money exchange business is.

Ya, I thought the Wine Galleria sign would have thrown people off while I cropped the coffee part out. Well done. I had seen a picture of that Bitcoin Box sign before when I was in Tahiti. Looked for what it was and found out that it was a defunct exchange. I was thinking that restaurant had some sort of bitcoin thing going on but it's just an advertisement.

Bassen on the 4hr chart, I give it up to 4 days to find the way up again. So a few days of rest in no mans land, gentlemen.
On the larger time frame, no big selling close to $6,000 but also no big buys with this Ghostly MtGox seller around. Something has gotta give.

Mt Gox coins haven’t moved since May. The wallet I am looking at has 107k Bitcoin and latest transaction (5k out) on 4 July 2018. https://www.blockchain.com/nl/btc/address/16rCmCmbuWDhPjWTrpQGaU3EPdZF7MTdUk

https://twitter.com/Bakkt/status/1044567318771232769I still don't exactly understand what BAKKT is about. The difference between SEC ETF and BAKKT ETF is that SEC ETF will use USD as their base currency but BAKKT will be using BTC, and because of that difference, BAKKT will have to buy Bitcoin (instead of USD) to pay their customers, right?

CBOE and CBE futures are cash settled (you get the cash value of a bitcoin credited to your account). Bakkt will be physically settled (you get a bitcoin credited to your account).

 I think keeping an eye on Satoshis coins is a bit more important. I believe Satoshi is actually CIA, just waiting to crash the market at the right time. However, in the long run, it could cause prices to go up even higher. If Satoshi sold his bitcoins, then it would allow more people to join the bitcoin community. It also takes some of the risk out of investing in bitcoin: the world’s biggest bitcoin stakeholder no longer holds bitcoin, and that takes away some risk from the market. After Satoshi’s coins are sold, it means no single party has the power to significantly crash the market.

If you need to buy that boatload of coins you don't buy on an open market do you? I mean if they're planning to buy big they won't be using an exchange? I'm not sure if off-exchange deals affect the price? Can anybody shed some light on how those big deals work?
