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

[VB1001]

I know we're supposed to be capitulating. True story bro! Caught a glimpse of the future.
 I met a mid 20's Bitcoiner/robotics engineer out in the wild today. Very interesting chat and I felt the bull stirring again. He believes machines will use a digital currency (likely bitcoin) in the not so distant future once they start to move among us.  
About a 5-10 year horizon.  

I am fully capitulated. Good thing I still have patience.

Bitcoin self-selects for people with:

* Low time preference
* Long attention span
* Commitment
* Authenticity
* Patience
* Persistence
* Ability to focus
* Ability to go against the mainstream

Bitcoin is a marathon, not a sprint.

First U.S. Pension Funds Take the Plunge on Crypto Investing.

Mostly speculative equity investing.

"The fund will also hold a small percentage of its value in liquid cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin"

A small percentage of $40M is nothing.

Some powder on the tiny bit of snow dust that'll eventually turn into a tiny marble, etc.

I feel like this is a once in a lifetime chance who missed all those old bitcoin faucets back in the day. There aren't many fork airdrops but I'm really excited about bitcoinhex since its free to claim.

Are you trying to suggest that Craig is making some kind of value contribution to truth in some kind of way?

The guys spouts out so much bullshit, that even if he happens to say some things that are true, who gives a ratt's ass?

There are scam artist and conmen who likely speak more than 90% truth.. that is how the whole practice operates.  You convince people to follow you because a lot of the things that you are saying is true.

However, in the end, the more important part remains that Craig is a narcissistic conman and a scam artist, and the exact percentage of what he says that happens to be true is largely irrelevant to the correct overall conclusion about his character.  There are others in the bitcoin, bcash and crypto space who also clearly and unambiguously fit into the conman and scam artist, and certainly the level of con and scam is going to vary from person to person, whether we are talking about Roger Ver, Jihan Wu, Vitalik Buterin, Vinny Lingham, annunymint, or some other known character in the space.

The morning should start with the right coffee 

Do you personally have one of those kinds of customizable coffee makers too?  or did you go to a coffee shop or find the image on the interwebs?  Mic has access to one of those machines, but no one has yet explained how they work in the real world including if the coffee shops just charge an extra fee for such service or they make those potentially customizable images for free  (like hats, but the hats are surely more understandably done through knowledge, creativity and playing around with photoshop features).

I am afraid dear hodlers, that soon we will have a big problem! No, I am not talking about a crash! I am talking about going above 10K. Last time some of us (like me) didn't sell anything, but what will you do, when we hit 15K-ish zone again? I am just curious (this may be kinda of a new poll), if you have any strategy? Hodl all, sell 1/3, sell 1/2, sell all, or other. I am pumping up myself to hodl everything until I reach the right amount for a nice beach villa, new car and savings equivalent to my salary before my retirement after 20 years.  Hopefully the property will be paid with BTC, so I may not sell BTC at all   So far, I have only one strategy for BTC:

There should be no problem with any strategy that continues to shave off small amounts of Bitcoin all the way up to $20k.. and maybe even considering proceeds from those sales as insurance to buy back on the way back down, if the price goes down.  I use something in the territory of 1% for every 10% price rise, and variations of that can work.

I do recognize a kind of phenomenon that tweaks down could be made around the $20k territory because once we get that close (assuming so), then there becomes a real decently increased likelihood that the price will shoot well past the previous ATH.  30% past?  50% past?  100% past?  There are going to be corrections along the way, but sometimes when the price is shooting up, any person might not be able to figure out when the price is going to pause in its upwards trajectory and even with small sell amounts along the way, feel as if s/he is selling too much because the price just keeps going up... but then likely the same person will thank himself/herself for selling along the way when the price suddenly and unexpectedly stops going up and gets into a 10%, 20%, 50% correction phase that could last several weeks before resuming UP.

but what will you do, when we hit 15K-ish zone again? I am just curious (this may be kinda of a new poll), if you have any strategy? Hodl all, sell 1/3, sell 1/2, sell all, or other.

The baseline doesn't change. Sell X coins every Y increase in price, buy X coins every Y decrease in price. When the bankroll starts getting small, change the buys to X-epsilon.

Of course, this can be modified by bulk sells to fund interesting things. I'm likely to sell a couple percent when it gets to $25k or $50k or somesuch.

But mostly hodl. Always be hodling. You don't want to feel like a chump when it 10x's from your exit point, and you ain't got nothing but a semi-big pile of stinky fiat.

Yes...  Thanks for that jbreher.. You have provided a good and succinct way of describing a sound and prudent long-term BTC guidance strategy that helps any of us to make sure that we are reasonably accumulating BTC and preparing for BTC price volatility that is not only expected but in the territory of inevitable.

Don't know what you're on about there LFC bro, I cannot wear my brand new hat! Yet.
I have to wait until tonight - I think.
Can someone confirm this?

Else I will have to take it up to the management.

Yeah... of course.. activity level of 120 for full membership which an extra 14 will bring you over to 126 activity.. .. .should be coming within the next 24 hours....,.. around midnight UTC might be about correct..

yes yes tonight 22:20
then wait for next refresh

then stop being so irritating

When i order one i can upload an image through Qr code and it costs a little extra
Like 1€ i think.....
But the coffee looks better that way
Going smoother inside etc....
And its just something funny ( most of times the coffee maker doesn’t understand my images)
Regulars are Mickey mouse etc

Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if BCH pumps harder during the next bull run.  Doesn't take a genius to know that the alts pump a lot harder during bullruns.

Doesn't take a genius to know that something with a low-ass market cap, and low liquidity is a lot less expensive to pump than something that is spread out more with a higher market cap (such as bitcoin).  Accordingly a lot of that shit is going to pump, but does not justify investing into it (unless you are ready, willing and able to strategize your exit so you don't get screwed).
