Let me tell you a story about the 14/15 bear market. My wife was in her masters program at the time and I needed $5k for tuition. $5k then was 22 BTC. I was in between clients and wasn’t going to be paid for 3 months. So I sold the BTC right? Wrong. I sold my car. Got $6k for it. https://twitter.com/americanhodl/status/1091192275554562048^HERO? The rest of the story is hilarious (and inspiring) too: What are you willing to sacrifice this bear market in order to win? I'm selling my boat. Rather too cheaply too, but better to get rid of it quick than let it sit for a year waiting for someone with more money than sense. Got what I needed from it, was an expensive trip, but worth it. Not selling my OTHER boat. My old man took it over and it will be freely available to the family whenever someone wants to use it.

Finally, my Google news from general media is turning heavy bearish, and some friends started mocking me again for my btc investment (although with a lot of caution compared than before ) I think these are prerequisites for a bull run. You must have a very short memory. I think I was the only person on the forum posting anything bullish about bitcoin when it was $200. The majority of bitcoin's existence has sentiment of despair and apathy. What do you see right now? A metric ton of dumbasses like Micgoossens posting lambo spam 24 hours a day. The forum is like 99% bullish and 1% bearish lol. At this point in time, I am not going to search through your post history to show the extent to which you are full of shit in your claims, but it still seems worth asking you for one point of clarification about your selling all of your BTC in the $500 to $600 price range. I personally had remembered (and of course my memory could be off a little bit) that you sold all your BTC on the way down, meaning that you got completely out of BTC and into gold and silver in about mid-to-late 2014. If I am wrong in my memory about that, which I doubt that I am, then alternatively, you would have gotten out out of BTC and into those stupid ass PMs in the late 2016 time frame... which would have been around the time of the bitfinex "hack," which might explain why you are both so bitter about bitfinex, and still stuck on your stupid ass broken record assertions that bitfinex, in some way, still (as if it ever did) controls the BTC price with its supposed shenanigans. Maybe you can clarify these timeline matters in terms of your supposed bullishness? I doubt that you will clarify, because just like any experienced (or trained) troll, you are in the habit of creating talking points and loose ends rather than providing actual information or clarifications. This might sound good if you have no idea how the bitcoin market works, but anyone that does knows bitcoin is a completely non-aggregate market controlled by a single entity operating on Bitfinex and trades solely as a pump and dump scam and nothing else. The Bitfinex entity only attempts to raise the price if he can shake out everyone else first or if he believes there's someone to buy his pump at the top. If the entire world is all-in on shitcoins just waiting to dump on him, the incentive to pump it doesn't exist.
When are you going to move on from this worn out bitfinex conspiracy talking point? Do you realize that such ongoing bitfinex conspiracy talking point carries little to no weight these days?

There is something a bit retarded for anyone claiming to be BTC bullish to want the BTC price to sink an additional more than 70% after it has already gone down 85%.
Wishers gonna wish. Where's that gif of the guy running after the departing train?

Guys, here, were not way too bullish in 2017. Many guys were predicting $3k to $5k as the high price points, and $10k in some kind of outlandish scenario. 2017 Bitcoin prices left a vast majority of folks here, even the most pie in the sky bullish of them in the dust.
True story. I wasn't even _wishing_ for that high a spike. Of course, that almost guarantees that it will be different next time. Which direction is yet to be discovered.

It's Saturday, before going out to dinner, good time to drink Hendricks / Coca-Cola and listening to The Marshall Tucker Band, Album: Carolina Dreams / 1977 (Southern Rock) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfuM1w_28KYRegards. Gad! I say, old chap - how ghastly uncivilized! Who would deign to adulterate Hendricks with that noxious flavored sugar water? Color me appalled! Just busting your chops. Whatever floats your boat... I guess.

Bullshit not any attention is good, we could easily have Bitcoin go to zero and be replaced if the US decided to ban it and sanction any countries using it.
If the US does that, where do you think countries that are already sanctioned are going to turn for an alternative to the USD? Chinese Yuan. Just sayin

JayJuanGee, why do you constantly post this bullshit Anonymint quote over and over like he didn't just make it up out of thin air? Do you think I create a Turbotax secondary user account for Anonymint to log onto my computer and spy on my financial statements? That was from a Sidhujag + Anonymint rage post where the two of them were pretending bitcoin was going to go to $100k when it was $20k and I told them they were out of their minds and they got all upset.
Do you see Sidhujag (syscoin dev) posting anywhere in this thread nowadays? Nope. Probably because he's too embarrassed after being completely wrong and hodling from $20k to $3k. The factual story is that I was all-in BTC at $200, then used leverage on top of that, and then unloaded all the leverage right at the peak of the pump to $800 and used 1/2 of the profit on silver. I'm not a "hodler". You can't sit in a leverage trade forever. You have to get rid of it at some point.
These dumbasses pretend exiting an overleveraged position at the top is somehow a bad idea and pretend like every single cent you own should all be invested in digital shitcoins and nothing else. Centralized, built-in middlemen, non-fungible, worthless digital shitcoins are NOT my 'unit of account'. Physical metals are.

https://paywithmoon.comDemo video: https://twitter.com/i/status/1091163062701309956It saddens me that had something like this been released 5 years ago, the Bitcoin/crypto community would be going absolutely apeshit over it right now.... but years later, released to a yawn. This is supposed to be the holy grail of Bitcoin merchant support, and nobody cares now. Also, if this integrates easily with a Coinbase account, why hasn't Coinbase themselves released something like this? Or just fucking buy this company? Un-fucking-believable that they want to spend all their time/resources on supporting the purchase and trading of hundreds of shitcoins instead.

Looks to be about a 5 iron to me, best take another shwack at it and see if we can get it closer to the green...FORE! 1h Significant confluence of resistance has been building at the 0.382 fib on the 4 hour chart. Breaking $3.45k and finding support above those levels is the area that needs challenged for the next leg upwards. Failing that hopefully support remains strong at the 0.236 fib level of $3.4k as there is a rising sense of momentum forming in the market. #dyor 4h #stronghands'19
