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

[ThrobbingSausage]

I noticed a while back that your very well endowed node is a peculiarly familiar shade of pink.  One of my little nodes is hooked up to you.

 I wanted a color that visibly popped. It was first a more flesh tone color to joke on the node name, but did not like the way it looked on 1ML or node graphs. Pink was more funny and visible on graphs than flesh tone.

 It look like Bitcoin pricing has stalled out for the day. Try to stay at this level for a little bit ? Then, more up tomorrow.

Good afternoon gentlemen, theymos has been enjoying himself trolling today. Price is up since before the weekend though.

[JayJuanGee]

Fucking Tone Ways is still predicting $1.5k. Does anyone here give him any credit? I sometimes watch the guy but no matter how hardcore bitcoiner he is, something started to bug me. I think I just don't like his attitude.

Can we really go down to $1.5k? Is it even possible?

I hope this is the start of a bull run we were waiting for.

$100k in 2021 please!

I kind of like Tone, even if he might have a few grating personality attributes. 

Also, I have been continuously bothered by some of his bearish predictions, as if there is something that he is missing - even though he does seem to understand bitcoin pretty well - even in terms of exponential adoption considerations.  A few more months staying abov $3,600 might even convert me into saying that we have passed (transitioned?) into a "bull market"   i am not there yet.

Yep... I browsed through them, and there seems to be a decent number likely to be real pics.  I put my real pic, too.

I think that opsec does not really resonate with some folks, and surely there is a decent amount of understanding that some people might consider posting an "actual" selfie to be harmless.. even a kind of personal acknowledgement.

I suppose there are pics/videos/social media profiles of very well known people involved in bitcoin & it doesn’t do them any harm.

It’s not for me though, I will always try to keep my identity private when it involves bitcoin. I don’t want to be known.

There are a couple of things going on there.  If you are going to run a kind of business that involves bitcoin, then there could be a whole hell of a lot of advantages to either having lax opsec or just letting yourself be known.  By lax opsec, I don't mean lax security in terms of how and where you store your bitcoins.  On the other hand, some people are unclear about whether they are attempting to run a business both in how they present themselves and perhaps also unclear in their own heads, too.  A final category could be someone who might be scamming and a bit ambiguous about which world they are in.. the publicly known or maintaining a more obscure personal identity.

I’d be worried if people knew who I was I could be a victim of some kind of mugging/robbery/torture. Obviously I don’t have hundreds of bitcoin’s but you never know what some people might see as worth targeting.

I don’t feel like getting my fingernails pulled out or being water boarded for my private keys.

^haha poor raja
i tried it and got the same thing again

I would do it, but I have a bit of a thing to change the timeline of my post... so personally, I am going to deem it a BIG "whatever" and merely live vicariously through anyone else who discloses their efforts in this verification roll of the dice.

I’m convinced some people put real pics & info in that thread. They need Jesus in their lives.

You know, the 'Verified bull' bit is a clickable link to your post in that thread.
You can quickly get to anyone's submission.

Whoaza!!!!  Dropping knowledge on the WO peeps - including urs truly.

Another short-cut.  I am learning way too much today.  You should realize that I have a limit regarding how much I am willing or able to learn in any one day?

Just got rid of that cheesy "Verified special snowflake"...

Now I'm a cool "Verified bull"!

Who’s watching does charts best??

I can't say it?  Several peeps have grating personality attributes, especially there can be a tendency towards "grating" with the more material that is put out there. 

There are not a lot of people who have universally like-able personalities, and the more well-known they become, then people might start bagging on them for various reasons (even if they are overall well-liked).

Just first delete the picture from you 1st picture post and post another picture in that thread(with a different post. Don't just replace new picture in original post.) It should redo the verification and give you another title.  

It is working. I can confirm this.

It's extremely embarrassing to post with this stupid sticky title next to my name:



Why isn't there anybody else with this title?

THANK YOU

I hated being a verified special snowflake



Now I'm a verified altcoiner.



My favorite would be verified as the real satoshi.

I suppose it depends on how you play it, and surely some public figures don't appear to have very many bitcoins and others do...

Overall, it is going to cost a lot less to engage in security through obscurity, and one of the risks of flaunting too much wealth will have similar issues regarding whether  a person has sufficiently stepped up his/her security based on changing circumstances.

I am largely with you about keeping a low profile, but never say never about possibly going into the limelight or even entering into a business that causes you to go more into the limelight... than at that point, new angles, including plausible deniability might have to be employed.
