They tried to kill Bitcoin for THIS junk, not feeling bad for him at all.
But happy days everyone else's BTC worth more now

That's a good point. Though I suspect behind the scenes where the real practical regulatory discussions are taking place by analysts that bitcoin is still front and center.

Good point. There was an old cartoon about how would you like you cryptocurrency scare, terrorism or paedophilia flavored? I guess we can add facebook (or 'big tech'* in general) to the options now.



*To be clear, there's a lot about big tech that's a problem but using it for scaremongering is a nasty tactic.

Hi there, Richy_T! Long time no see.

Na the party on the other side of the channel owns them now.

This is a counter measure against frauds.
(Try to close channel with an old state, lose your funds to the other party if they are online.)

Well we all knew deep down that 7700 wasnt going to hold and when it broke it would get ugly. 

I was waiting to see if massive buying (large volume similar to the peak of the mini bubble this summer) occurred once we had a large crash like yesterday, and sadly we didnt get the requisite volume for me to deploy my last fiat stash.

The really strong support is at 6500 so hopefully the Bargain Boyz will step in and load their trucks with massive volume at that level and end this mini bear market inside our bull market that started in Dec. 2018, because this so far has been a dud and the true Bargain Boyz have not arrived yet.

A 6500 dollar bottom would still be extremely bullish as we were in the 3-4k range earlier this year. That is where the true run to 100k starts imo and hopefully it happens sooner than later so we can be done with this mess created by the overzealous parabolic run this summer.

What I find interesting about this drop is the volume it has created on Bakkt. Another thousand down and we will see volumes increase again. Potentially this is when Bakkt starts to pay off.

XBTO:

“Last week, we bought the first Bakkt Bitcoin Daily Futures contract and took the first physical delivery of a digital asset under existing commodity futures laws and regulations. This week, we executed the first block trade. We’re pleased to report that the launch was successful and can accommodate large trades.”

Conspirancy theories come to me!

I repeat that in my opinion the crucial point of Bakkt is the fact that it's allowing the availability of financial instruments integrated in the "traditional" workflow facilitating more "regulated" and therefore less "agile" institutions to operate on bitcoins.
And then maybe these people decide to use this possibility to sell bitcoin, but it's in their power, I'm happy from a certain point of view for everything that facilitates price discovery, adding liquidity to the market.
As I said, I think it's better not to be on the short side of the market with little more than 200 days to the halving!

So the advise now is to keep accumulating?

Buy what you can afford to each month, you’re almost guaranteed to make handsome profits if you’re buying in this range. Patience is required though, don’t expect to make massive profits immediately.
Buy & don’t even worry about the price until mid-late 2021.

You are right about the volume. Drops below $10K and then $8K were not surprising at all (I have expected both of them, although I did not voice my predictions). Right now there is not a slightest sign of recovery. All this looks very bad, a repetition of 2018. I am still moderately bullish in very long term, but I do not think it is a bull market now. The run to $13K deceived me, but now I have returned to my old thought. Of course, it is impossible to predict a new bull market, only to prove its existence some time after its start. But to me there is one and only one criterion of such proof: a new ATH. Until then, the cryptowinter continues. And I think we will not see $100K for many years.

Hello WO Gang.
Observing 7473@STAMP.
1BTC=1BTC and all is good.

Little more than 200 days to halving, and feeling confident.
We have been on this emotional roller-coaster many times, and just another one wild ride won’t hurt too much.

To help you distract from irrelevant short term market fluctuations, I suggest you to read a very important topic to me:

I do encourage you to share your thought about it in that thread, of course you can support it (I hope so), but feel free to disagree (I hope not).

Quantum thingy....

"Our machine performed the target computation in 200 seconds, and from measurements in our experiment we determined that it would take the world's fastest supercomputer 10,000 years to produce a similar output," Google researchers said

3k BTC WILL COME any day here

3k is not scary... you should try harder... why not 1k? 

$1k? that would be merely annoying.

$30? now that would be a bit nerve racking.
