US Seizes $2.1 Billion ISIS Gold, No Bitcoin

Under cover of darkness, 50 tons of gold worth some $2.1 billion was lifted by US helicopters from the al-Baghouz area in Syria’s Deir Ezzor according to state run news agency Sana.

I highly doubt this news that ISIS holds 2 billion worth of gold. if anyone really wanna track cash flow then start with all Soudi-American own bank accounts.

Unfortunately, we can't find any because. Americans sells Weapons for a living and for the shady operation, it's discreet for obvious reasons.

Normally, Isis doesn't. These are the gold they stole from Assad. Isis is a band of thieves and killers which got planted in the Middle East by the US. That's the only thing you should be seeing in this article. Don't get drowned in the details.

Assad didn't cooperate with Israel, USA didn't like it. It is as simple as this.

“This gold was stolen from the Central Bank of Mosul, from the economy in Syria that was under the control of IS, and from the selling of Syrian and Iraqi antiquities, like smuggled antiquities from Palmyra that were sold to smugglers and traders through Turkey,” Rami Abdulrahman, head of SOHR, said.

Gold belong to people in Syria, Iraq and I dont know what country also. But it looks it will get stolen now.

You stole one of my point minus Syria if you go with local peeps not media-so called.

My lost memory 🤣
#DeleteCoinbase

I can not remember when was the last time I used it. I think I will also need to close my account too if I manage to find my credentials. #CoinbaseByeBye 🙂

LOL
I forgot my old phone number now imagine how old my Coinbase account was. The reality for me now is that I can not close this account since I can not recover it anymore.

May be I need to find someone who might have knows my old number.

A bit oversimplified but essentially true.

I just hope the Kurds don't end up taking it in the ass (again) out of the deal.

Also, fuck Erdogan.

Also, fuck Erdogan.

He was also planted by the US.

I know it because I am from Turkey. Before he got elected, he was nobody. He was sitting in a jail cell. First they let him out, then he made a trip to the US and after a few months he was elected. He is around since then.  

17 fucking years btw.

I put my trust on the white paper. (Not all yet, but I am getting there  ) I hope some day I will be able to rescue myself from this hellhole. $100k/piece would suffice.

The short term oscillations are getting smaller and smaller. Easiest to see on the 15 min chart probably. Smallish breakoutish? Down or up? I'm flat again, after a fat whole 25 mBTC profit.

Atleast you made a profit while some of us are just cutting our losses.
This market has just been a clusterf**k for all who expected the end of the month to pay out for those who held out this long.
Only a good pump a week earlier then back down. You wouldve gotten more out of going to orchids of Asia day spa.

[d_eddie]

Well, I see your point. However, profiting in such a market requires being ready to short - at least for me it does. Shorting is not something I do happily, and when I do short it's always with a definite goal in mind or as a hedge against a risky long.

If you are constantly plodding away in terms of striving towards BTC accumulation without taking big risks or making BIG bets, while largely betting on long term UP, then seems to me that your chances become better and better that you will have some financial independence and "fuck you" money at some point.. and perhaps such point will come before BTC prices reach $100k?

It seems to me that a necessity of a BTC price of $100k is a bit of a high target - because it is possible that BTC prices will never reach there or that the timeline for reaching there is drug out longer than expected; however, I noticed that even though I had been accumulating BTC since late 2013, for a few years, it was not clear how much I would need BTC prices to become in order that I would feel comfortable in my "fuck you" money achievement. 

Nonetheless, I have found that if a BTC HODLer/accumulator continues to act prudently in accumulation/HODL tactics and strategies and don't take rash actions, the target BTC price for achieving "fuck you" status seems to become lower and lower - merely because little by little the BTC stack amount are going to become higher and higher - especially if you can also figure out prudent ways to profit from BTC volatility, which seems nearly inevitable.

My BTC projection method has tended to be outlined as considerably conservative, so actual BTC price performance (and what actually has happened in my BTC portfolio) has, so far, tended to quite highly outperform the better case (and probable) scenarios of earlier expectations - which causes the "fuck you" BTC price level to become lower and lower the longer that I continue to eat away with my long term plan and strategy without falling into temptations to take rash actions.

$3,750 - $3,850 is the new $3,350 - $3,450

[mindrust]

Depends on many things JJG.

I am throwing like $200 to $1k every month since last year.

I bought $1.7k worth of bitcoins while the price was above $10k. Bought a lot more when the price was between $5k and 10k and much less than that when the price was under $5k.

If the price stays under $5k for at least 2 years, maybe I can reach my goal before $100k. Maybe $50k would do the job.

Depends on many things. I really want that "fuck you all money".

You are expecting way too much if you are planning your finances around a break out to the upside that has less than 50/50 odds of happening. 

In other words, you will be causing your own psychological issues if you are betting on up when the odds are against you.

Well, I see your point. However, profiting in such a market requires being ready to short - at least for me it does. Shorting is not something I do happily, and when I do short it's always with a definite goal in mind or as a hedge against a risky long.

yes, if anyone is trying to squeeze this lemon for short-term profits out of a directional situation that is questionable at best (but perhaps leaning slightly towards bearish), then you can play around with shorts that may or may not result in various levels of profits.

On the other hand, if anyone has a longer time horizon.. let's say at least 2 years (which is really NOT very long to be investing into an asset), then that person seems to have pretty decent chances that any BTC quantity that s/he buys in our current price range of $3,500 to $4,100 should be decently profitable by then... at least the BTC price should be higher than the purchase price.  Of course, if the time horizon is a bit longer, let's say 5 years, then the odds for higher seem even better.

One thing is having decently good enough trading skills and even resources (access to exchanges) and a systematic approach for shorting BTC that seems viable to play, but probably more than 95% of anyone considering a possible BTC investment plan about getting into BTC does not have those kind of skills nor temperament... perhaps in this thread, the ratio is a bit higher, maybe 15%-ish of the participants could carry out such a shorting plan in a profitable and systematic way?

In other words, for the vast majority of folks, fuck shorting BTC, and just think about BTC accumulating and hodling strategies and tactics.. that involve dollar cost averaging and buying on dips ... even now.. even if the BTC price goes down for another year or more... it is much easier... especially if you have at least two years, and even better if you are ready, willing and able to stick with your BTC buy/hodl strategy for 5 years or more.
