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

[bitserve]

I am wondering... Is there anyone here with a Bitcoin value (at current price) 100x the rest of their net worth including fiat, real estate, stocks and any other assets? Maybe 10x?

I am sure there's plenty in the 1x to 5x... and way more in the 0.1-1x.

Su-uch a coincidence that. The NYAG rebuffed by Judge Cohen. 4 hours later Bitstamp mysteriously gets a walked down ask of 5k coins they 'can't deal with'.
Again and again the Central Banks have tried to crash Bitcoin, whether with China or Korea or Tether fud, or hacking the easy targets, or kidnapping the 'shady' businessmen. Pretending to be inept whales. All the while accumulating 'just in case'.
Again and again Bitcoin has risen back up, and further up, because more and more people realise what they stand to gain.
It's way too late to make it illegal effectively, so all they can do is rekt a few traders and slow down the buying for a while.

It would be WAY more effective to make it ilegal. But I do agree that any time that is being harder to justify. Rekting traders is futile in the medium/long term. Of course they could implement enough regulations as to severely hurt it though. That will always be one of the implicit risks. Otherwise this would be just free money instead of an investment.

Compared to yesterday it's definitely $1K down but compared to last week it $1K higher of course 🙂

[bitserve]

I mean it was $6200 some hours ago (yesterday, in some countries) ... so $1K higher already

By the way, my next celebration will be at $10k. Too bored at this price 😁

Do I wake up automatically behind asses like that when I am "rich" aka when we hit $100k? Honestly thats all I want in life   But of course not always the same ass.

There are rumors that the VanEck ETF could be approved next tuesday. Why ? Because, unlike Bitwise, there has been no announcement about it being postponed. And because, next tuesday "crypto mom" Hester Peirce is supposed to be a speaker at an ETF conference in New York.

But... at Consensus Peirce also said that some questions still needed to be answered on the ETFs.

Like this one for who didn't saw the GOT thread....

Whats funny is when she went ballistic on all the innocent people that didn't bother me but what did is the fact that they were just hanging out like nothing was going on in the streets when there was a fucking Army attacking the fucking walls!!!

This season is so bad I was not surprised at all that they would take a character and make them act completely out of character just for the shock value. HBO bombed this season badly. After 2 fucking years of waiting I could care less about watching any of the other shows.

I agree completely! For me Dani is like any other good girl. She can lose her temper sometimes, but to burn a whole city?!? When one of her dragons burned a child, she locked them all in a cave, despite loving them as her children. HBO screenwriters went too far in their effort to be unpredictable.And that led to absolute predictability - everyone expected from them to kill the series by destroying every character and sound sense. I am just not interested in the next episodes at all - John kills and eats Dani, Sansa burns Arya and John, some peasant kills Sansa... I don't care!

I'd merit this if I had any left.

Smells of typical straw grabbing to me. If I remember rightly the applications had different dates for the extension so not saying anything now about Vaneck is meaningless. Glad to be proven wrong all the same.

Fair enough. I don't think I will be celebrating any price any time soon out of fear of the subsequent dump/correction.... but I will be glad inside though

This is fine.

Bitcoin continues to be too volatile due to low liquidity and too much leverage.
I don't see a need for the 100X leverage, but it is up to Mister Market to put a possible end to that.

VanEck-don't really care much.
Each share would be $178K (25 BTC) if it is approved. Not enough "granularity".

It's more likely to re-test 6200 than to go up short term, IMHO.
Not pleased.

RE whale: maybe it was Kobayashi again? Not likely, though.

I don't have any expectations about an approval. The deadline is the 21st May. Last time, SEC inquired for answers of many questions from the public. Practically nobody cares anymore to answer them. While the first round we had over 1000, after that there were only several, as far I remember. Now, SEC staff will just copy-paste the same questions with some additional from the Bitwise decision. Or they can just deny it. Clearly, SEC is afraid to be the first to give the investors a regulated market. But when bakkt/fidelity/etc. goes well, then they will have no reason but to approve the first serious ETF proposal. Will it be good for Bitcoin is another question. It may speed up the rise to 100K, but it may also create a bubble to pop like the futures did. Right now, I think it is good for the investors to get an ETF but bad for the hodlers. It may create amother short lived bull run to 20K. On the other hand, after a year or two, when we are above 20K it will be a fireworks show for the hodlers to get ETF. Imagine we get an ETF around 50K - that will explode the price above 100K for sure!

[gentlemand]

I don't have any expectations about an approval.

My guess is that an ETF will arrive many years from now long after it's been routed around by countless other methods. We'll think 'ooh, that's nice. Brings back a few memories' and then get back to our fluffers.
