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

[kenzawak]

As much as I agree BCH is still a top 10 coin with over $500m in daily trading volume, don't act like it is completely worthless.

Some people go overboard and call everything a shitcoin.  Is it because of the no premine of bitcoin?  Well, you can call it a fair launch but was it really fair when only a handful of people even knew about it?

Also many people think Satoshi is dead but you can't rule out a day when he decides to dump one million bitcoins on the market, just sayin......

One second please...
Ok, I'm ready.

This is fine.
Coinbase you cunts.

Meh.  Why would anyone have anything to do with Coinbase after the Bcash stunt where they withheld Bcash until January to prop up the price?

[HairyMaclairy]

What is this supposed to mean?

Afri was the lead Eth dev for Parity and an important part of the Constantinople fork.  Quitting a couple of days before the hard fork is not a vote of confidence, especially considering the fork has been put off twice already due to bugs being discovered.

Take that Vitalik!



Google knows that there's only one coin that's here to rule - "BTCitcoin"!

That's some next level bitcoinism! Actually, there's a word for that I think, but I can't recall it... Bitcoin maximalism? Maxism?
Whatever, the point is, accepting only Bitcoin and disregarding everything else is stupid.
I presume that most people who do that were also calling Bitcoin shit before they see the price skyrocket; because such people wouldn't give anything a chance in their mind until proven wrong.

That's a joke right?  Google didn't really write that?

Dude, of course I think bitcoin is #1, but don't act like those satoshi coins are forever lost.

There are promising startups that have released their tokens, and there is an bch that in fact is an attempt to seize power and fraud.

re: The bottom is in bet.
HairyMaclairy bets that it is.
Last of the V8s bets that it is not.
One litecoin.
I'd rather only bet against Hairy, but thanks for the offers @kurious, @arriemoller.
I'd want no upper limit as was suggested, as I think it could fluctuate higher than that and still come down lower.
Bitstamp low of 3122.
If Bitstamp becomes unavailable, how about preev, bitcoinaverage? some other named exchange?
I'd want a year just to keep it simple, though I do think it could happen later than that (3.7% likelihood for JJG).
Would be happy to send my litecoin to escrow if needed.
Payment in btc equivalent is acceptable. No one actually wants the shitcoin itself.
If that's agreeable...

Agreed.  If the Bitcoin price falls below US$3,122 on Bitstamp (or if Bitstamp not available for any reason, Bitcoinaverage Global Bitcoin Price Index USD) at any time prior to 20 February 2020, then Hairy will pay V8 BTC0.012.  If the Bitcoin price does not fall below US$3,122 prior to 20 February 2020, then V8 will pay Hairy BTC0.012.   


Propose to lock in current LTC exchange rate of approx BTC0.012 (Bitstamp) to keep it simple.  Please quote above if amenable.

That is what I thought. If that isn´t a hoax, I´d raise my glas to harsh kick in the balls.

Also many people think Satoshi is dead but you can't rule out a day when he decides to dump one million bitcoins on the market, just sayin......

I believe he is still alive - unless he was very unlucky.
Satoshi of course is not that sorry excuse of a person claiming to be so (Craig Wright Wrong). No doubt on this one - 100%.
Yes Jbear. The following is my argument.

If Satoshi was greedy, or wanted to become possibly filthy rich in the future, he wouldn't have disappeared into thin air.
Instead, he did the only honorable thing to do. He set it free, without leaving any trace or room to be worshiped like a God or something.
It was a carefully executed plan.

He did the only thing he could do, to ensure the survival and success of BTC.
Took himself out of the equation. Like Prometheus and fire. Only the later was not so careful.
Believing Satoshi would pop out some day, cashing in his 1m coins, is believing that BTC will fail.

I rest that there is a very tiny chance that this might happen, based only on the art of seduction & misdirection on a global scale. No.

[xhomerx10]

 Why doesn't anyone seem know that the B is supposed to have a 13.8888888888888... degree tilt to it?! I mean if you're going to promote something you should know something about it shouldn't you? That sticker is tilting in the wrong direction and could possibly represent beecash.  This sort of thing saddens me.

I like to think he ritually destroyed his keys.

I do not think that people who do not know what bitcoin will remember the angle of its slope. But they will remember the symbol for sure.

Nicely spotted.
Both have tilts clockwise and anti-clockwise. That's for Bcash shit.

[Cryptotourist]

That's an option indeed.
Another option would be to share/give/donate it back to the world when the time is right*.

*. Before he dies, or when BTC takes over fiat.

Coinbase has been selective scamming since 2014 that I know about. Their history is a long and retarded one full of pro-USG activities and of dishonesty. People do still use them out of greed, stupidity or laziness. I hope they go down sooner rather than later.

Trading volume for the last 24 hours is the highest in the last 10 months : more than 10 Billions.

Why the fuck do people still buy Ethereum? I don't understand.
,
It is proven it doesn't have any magical solution to its L1 scalability and also nobody's using its dapps neither. So why would anybody want that piece of shit?

$5b worth of eth is traded in the last 24h. What the fuck...

*at least they are not buying bcash, that's a relief.

They buy it so that they can pump shitcoins and scams, which is a use case in and of itself that causes speculation regarding how many and how much shit can be built on top of other shit, which causes various network effects.  In the long (perhaps 50 years) or medium (perhaps 5-10 years), the market is going to realize how shitty the whole ETH foundation is (including the fact that it is insecure of both centralization and also in terms of the shenanigans that are built on such centralization - which includes a fiat kind of set of monetary policies that they don't openly admit).  

I remain somewhat surprised regarding the actual fact that some more serious projects are actually building on ETH - which is going to cause the scam to continue for a decently long time - absent some real major issue that cannot be short-to-medium term covered up.

In other words, it seems pie in the sky to be wishing on the short term demise of ETH, even though I am in the same camp in which I am not going to put much if any of my actual value into such shescamicans.
