9:13am CST. Dallas, TX Suburbs: The hiss of carbonated air can be heard escaping from a cold, fermented alcoholic beverage.

I bought £200 worth of God’s green yesterday, when I get home I’m going to get high AF

Ak-47 indoor here. Flowery sweet scent mixed with a citrus fruity and oak taste. Really nice.

Outdoor sativa's today! The terpenes are so amazing.  Ready for the long winter just in case.

OH that is b-e-a - UTIFUL! I only tried growing it myself once, around 2012 when I was starting my physics bachelors. Little one died anyway..



Books and junk was for the size comparison.

[JimboToronto]

The real loser was someone who could have bought at $58, but was too busy calling Bitcoin dead back then to realise. So wrong, for so long.

What a total (demonstrably stupid) prick. 

Reminds me of the Wizard of Oz. If you don't have a brain, all you need is a diploma.

The markets down again today and then Bitcoin dips after close, what the fuck.

Calm down , and keep on hodling whats possible too HODL.....

[JayJuanGee]

Our assets are sore from too much correlation.

Seems to be a short term perception.

It was a shitpun, actually.

I don't think there's any real correlation, except as someone said a temporary disturbance probably linked to suffering stock positions - or bonds, which have been in milder but structural trouble for a while already.

If the stock market gets a couple more blows, it could turn into priming bull fuel, even.

Yes.... Exactamente.   Something like:  "It is correlated, until it is not."

No ?

Wow a 15000BTC sale brings the price down by only several hundreds? Bullish!  

In the end, who really knows what is happening with those 15k BTC?

We have coins moving here and there, but we don't know whose they are nor where they have moved, and a lot of exchanges can handle a decent amount of volume, anyhow, without really being affected - unless there is a way to show a kind of coordinated manipulation attempt.

Even the movement and the sale of a significant quantity of Gox coins in late 2017 and a few more times in 2018 were hardly proven as contributory to any kind of meaningful long term manipulation - even though claims of such were made, and likely there is a decent incentive for some short term gains from manipulator insiders (as long as they can get away with it).

I don't see the point of underline a 15.000 sell..... isn't daily volume more than 700.000 BTC?

What am I missing here?

700,000 of the same old coins moving back and forth. this is fresh meat to dump.

You trying to exaggerate a bunch of bullshit, ECB?  Who gives a ratt's ass about a few extra BTC dumped on the BTC market, unless you are filled with hopium that this time is going to work - to get BTC prices below $5774.
 

There are more important things going on, including various other markets (traditional markets, and a bit of an alt coin dump) going down quite simultaneously... and then a question about the extent to which BTC is going to dump as much  or hold value and perhaps even show some ability to serve as a inversely correlated investment... Let's see..... Let's see.  Interesting times, in which we live, no?  And, not just one factor (such as a relatively minuscule amount of BTC being moved from one unknown address to another unknown address).   Get real...

Wow a 15000BTC sale brings the price down for only several hundreds? Bullish!  

That is exactly the amount sold from 6600 to 6200-ish in Bitfinex. The price looks stable for now, only 5% loss is no big drama. It looks more like a bear trap to me. Of course, I agree that this year so far was a bears shitshow. All these people clearly have little faith and patience (or at least they had before but lost it now). But sooner or later the selling bears will dissapear.  Let's hope this was the last bear selling at 6K range.  I clearly remember last year how many people sold thousands of bitcoins when the price was below 3K. Now it is a rare thing to see a sell above 1K. In the next years probably we will be talking of hundreds-bitcoin-whales, then tens-bitcoin-whales  

In gloomy days like these, I try to imagine where the price will be in 3, 5, 10 years? There is no need to wreck my nerves by these short dips. If I just hold, I will become a millionaire way before my retirement. So, instead of selling, I prefer to buy moar bitcoins with my pathetic salary. Who knows, may be we will see new ATH sooner than expected.  I don't want to be on the wrong side when this happens.   Yes, I have faith that I will see it and enjoy it with my full stash intact by these shakeouts!!!

If you are willing to have a time preference horizon that goes beyond 5 years, it seems that you have really decent odds of profiting stupendously by continuing to dollar cost average into BTC until then - and hoping for the best - even if you happen to be regularly investing with a "pathetic salary," as you mentioned.

Of course, such hope regarding the future of BTC (and presumably BTC prices that will follow) is based on a certain kind of disparity of information in which you seem to understand the fundamentals of BTC and there are so many average Joes who either do not have a clue about BTC or they are filled with Angst or apathy regarding the extent to which bitcoin "may be valuable" (from their perspective). 

On the other hand, if your time horizon is way shorter, then there certainly could be some unnecessary risks - for example even less than 3 years - and you would not want to put a great amount of your money into BTC if you really needed to have that money liquid in a shorter period of time - such as less than 3 years.

What a total (demonstrably stupid) prick.  

Nouriel's most remarkable talent is erasing from his memory every mistake he's ever made. What a feat!

A 310 bitcoin sale is like throwing a hotdog down a hallway. It wouldn’t touch the sides.

I think the recommendation is kegel exercise. You could try pumping your hotdog also.

Seems to either show either a considerably high level of non-comprehension of bitcoin or a purposeful attempt to misinform about what is bitcoin.

Could we possibly be tied to the tech stock sector? My stocks chart and daily btc price look a bit too similar and rose at a close pattern.

Zoom out a bit, and think about the situation.

When you say "we" in the context of this thread, I presume that you are referring to bitcoin rather than to some more amorphous "crypto" concept.

Surely, there is some correlation from time to time; however, bitcoin is not really as much about tech as it is about soundness of money - even though it relies upon tech to achieve its goal, there is nothing really "tech stocks" about bitcoin, unless we are talking about threats to shut down the whole internet (or substantial parts of it) or alternatively some major bug in tech that fundamentally interferes with bitcoin's operations security....

Mmmmm for me its only going too be VENOM movie.....

But i do like seeing you Guys doing what you do BEST

Having Fun laughin @ the fucking price and just keep hodling like bosses

My lame ass will have to sell soon for closing cost and down payment. I'm kinda stressing.

You should NOT let your cashflow get so close to "having to" do something that might not be in your interest, which means that you have been gambling too much of your cashflow, hoping for UP...

"we" could go to $3k or to $1k and stay there for 6-12 months, and your cashflow should be prepared for that...

.I am not predicting that such $1k to $3k range will occur, but I am saying that you gotta be prepared (repetition, I know).  but:

[Hueristic]

Guys is this the right time to invest? Please let me know. I need money fast.

5 bitcoin says this guy is going to lose all his money by the end of the month.

The magician is gonna make it disappear?

Is the liver stress before or after the brick based ball hardening drill?

After.

Always after.

Invariably, my boot-sequence is always;

1. Wake up
2. Roll out of bed
3. Resist urge to pee. Immediately begin squeezing PC muscles
4. Reach under bed
5. Pull out two 75 pound custom-made steel platters with handles
6. Crash testicles between two platters like orchestral cymbal virtuoso for at least 10 reps
7. Go pee
8. Start my day

ya know some people just use alarm clocks and coffee to get up you know. works ok.

I say we as in the Bitcoin horders especially those in this thread who shitpost. Truth is, I don't have many coins, just a handful my dumbass didn't spend and have slowly accumulated. I have been hodling on as I needed to keep them away for a house and debt. I guess fomo has been going strong since the first huge pump I saw with prices hitting $300.

Ultimately, you are the one in the position to best understand your cashflow situation, and whether you believe it to be prudent to dip out of some (or all of your btc) while btc is in an ongoing correction phase.

Likely, you recognize that this ongoing correction phase has been going on since December, yet surely when such correction started, we did not know how far or how long such correction would take place - so to me, it seems a bit imprudent to be making any kinds of large (purportedly emergency) selling of bitcoin at these price levels and under these circumstances.. accordingly, I am suggesting that you have been gambling too much if you let your cashflow issues rise to such a level that you are forced to liquidate substantial portions of your BTC based on what seems to have been gambling with too much of your cashflow...

Of course, you can assess the situation to be different, yet based on what information you have provided, I have already stated my tentative conclusion.. and accordingly, we seem to be in buying or HODLing territory rather than selling territory - even though anyone can conclude for themselves to be in another situation and of course, if you are in profits (and sell all or some of your BTC at these price points), then you are not in as much of a bad situation than if you are selling in the negative (and I don't know enough about your situation to understand that, even though I recall prior posts from you (about 6 months ago or more) in which you were expressing considerable concern (emotion) about the price going down, which largely shows that you are either over-invested or gambling too much (which is describing the same phenomena using different words).
