........but for 2020 no reason to be optimistic. I will personally sell at 9k and wait for another buy point which would be around 4k next year.


PS: there is nothing "trolling" about calling bear trends. It is crystal clear the trend is bearish right now and will last for at least 6 months. 

I would say that scenario is pretty bearish.  Of course, you are not calling for zero, but you are fairly strongly asserting that $6,515 is not our bottom for this part of the correction.  I actually am o.k. that $6,515 might end up getting tested again, and part of the reason is that we are still within pretty close striking distance of that price.

So, $4k scenario is another thing, which seems difficult to get to, especially since we already had about 85% correction and then another 62% correction which seems more than sufficient in order to largely resume up, but to perhaps again challenge the 62% part of it.... but $4k would bring us pretty damned close to challenging the 85% which seems to ignore a lot of the development and even the scarcity aspects of bitcoin, including that some people coming into bitcoin largely remove their coins from liquidity and they do not trade them or even put them in a place that is tradeable.

Regarding your not to be optimistic about 2020 assertion, perhaps there could be some sense that any additional attempted testing of the bottom could carry on and take a decent while to resolve, yet the halvening brings strong physical pressures on supply, that will likely become stronger and stronger felt, especially as time passes after the halvening.... and even players like BAKKT seem to be making certain demands of some of the BTC supply, and some of those likely larger players getting into bitcoin through BAKKT are going to become enlightened to bitcoin, but also learn about the direct buying of bitcoin and holding their own stash, which means more BTC removed from the market... so we will see, we will see.  I think what you are describing is in the lower than 25% probability area rather than really any kind of scenario that should be treated seriously in terms of more probable paths that are surely less bearish, and really more bullish... which does seem to be the more likely path that we are on... we are in a bull market, by the way, so there is that, too... and we would have to get out of the bull market before bearish scenarios would approach 50/50 probabilities.

Finally a place where the assholes of the world can unite and talk about.. uhm.. their assholes ?  
Do we get a new poll about this new topic as well ?

Edit : mmmm maybe we should first address current poll.
question : does Mic own a boat ? Could help with the voting....

He don't like boats, so there's that.

You see what happens......

hahahaha...

Moral lesson.


Stop doing the things that you do not like.  

lol

Packing for vacation. Rick and I are heading to Turks and Caicos tomorrow to tan our assholes. Will be back early next week.

Pics or it didn't happen!

STFU JJG ...... Thursday is here thank youuuu

Since so many peeps had been suggesting that they could have their own day in the week, I though that I had been forgotten. 


Thank you so very much for remembering..... 







In other words, get a life..., and go look for either 1) your nano or 2) the back-up seed!!!!!!!

Someone betting on GOLD going to $4,000:

Bold Bets That Gold Could Triple to $4,000 Trade in New York

Around noon in New York Wednesday, 5,000 lots of a gold option giving the holder the right to buy the precious metal at $4,000 an ounce in June 2021 changed hands. The bets were sold at $3.50 an ounce.

First thoughts:

• If gold goes to $ 4,000, what happens to digital gold?
• Might be something hedging their short positions on gold (like, but opposite to, Ray Dalio buying puts on the S&P?)

Sounds like a lot of hopium to me...




Goldbugs have been wishing for something like that for more 10 years.  Instead, we have bitcoin... The gold thing is way inferior to bitcoin in a lot of ways and a more than doubling does not seem to have more than a 10% of happening, so we should NOT be taking such pie in the sky scenarios in regards to gold more than doubling in the next couple of years too seriously.

[JayJuanGee]

The halving is in 6 months Bossian, you’re either trolling or totally retarded if you think $4,000 is likely with a block reward halving imminent. That’s a 50% drop from here. It just isn’t going to happen.

Look at the price movements leading up to & following the previous block reward halvings.
You clearly have no idea what you’re doing or you’re trolling & I can’t figure out which.
 

Halving either won't have an impact, or it will but certainly not before 2 or 3 years. It only it was that simple, everyone would be making money with the halving coming soon. That's extremely simplistic to think this way.

Want to put your money where your mouth is?

0.05BTC bet?

• I say we see a new ATH before 2022
• You say we won’t?

Deal.

We won't see 19k again in 2020 or 2021, book it.

Hope you will honor this bet I will if wrong.

Deal!

I’m a man of my word!

 

I trust LFC.. for it, but seems like an escrow deal to me because Bossian is the way more likely to lose the bet (especially out to 2022... holy fuck) and has not been around for very long.

https://archive.is/tilzS

here's your silly bet archived by a fourth party

note that LFC has far more to lose in terms of reputation than Bossian

Bet has been archived. It will stay there, no need to do anything stupid like a contract. Let’s just see how it plays out, pretty sure I will win

Now when 8k

Agree, I will be there too and will keep my word no matter what. 0.05 is not that big anyway with the trading profits made since last year.

But But what about the trading losses by the day of payment.......... we Wall Observers think about all possible scenario's in order of payment and keeping word etc  

Who knows.

Another possible scenario, Bitcoin price is below $1 at the end of 2021, in that case no one needs to honor his bet at such ridiculous price (that's a very unlikely scenario though).

By the way that goes without saying but considering price fluctuation I would expect a payment within 3 business days starting from January 1, 2022, hope LFC is fine with these terms.

Bet is likely to be resolved in LFC's favor way before 2022... perhaps early 2020... but could drag out to 2021.. surely there are a lot of days in 2021... 365 if I remember my maths correctly.

Fantastic.


Antonopoulos: Cash-Settled Bitcoin Futures Traders Face ‘Black Hole’

Bitcoin (BTC) educator Andreas Antonopoulos says that while futures markets may indeed place a damper on the cryptocurrency’s price, the stakes are different to what you might think.

We continue with the black holes.

[fillippone]

Exactly. It probably will have an impact, but not like the previous two halvings.

I disagree. HAlving impact has been constant (in log terms)

I follow this model:
Stock To Flow Model: Modeling Bitcoin's Value with Scarcity

Thanks for the link, I know about the model, but not in detail. Its main problem, from my point of view, is that there have been only two halving events, too few for more or less solid statistics.

The model has been working even BEFORE the first halving. So the number of halving is pretty irrelevant.
Model parameters considering 2009-2012 data points (before first halving) are very similar to ones obtained considering the whole BTC price history.

Buy the rumors and sell the news. As simples as that, no need to overcomplicate the news trading. The party will start early and the late participants will start to dance when the music stops.

Just a matter of time before Ripple overtakes Ethereum for good, I mean for real with no coming back.

I even think Ethereum will eventually die while Ripple will remain on the market. Just think how much money Eth holders have lost last 12 months, especially those who bought exactly 12 months ago  

Does this altcoin portfolio comes under NSFW

Honestly I don't mind having my face ripped off. Just go for it, see if I care.

On this day, in some parts of North America, we celebrate the technological inferiority of the original inhabitants at first contact, in particular their total lack of gunpowder and resistance to certain European diseases, by eating large birds until we are physically ill.

Cheers WO.

Guys,
I have heard the most bullish news since a long time:

From 2020, the sale and custody of Bitcoin will be allowed to all German banks

So far, there was a clear legal separation between the normal regulated banking and crypto transactions. The custody and trading of Bitcoin and Kryptos has until now always been outsourced to specialized partners or subsidiaries with appropriate licenses. By 2020 all German banks should be redeemed.

If all German banks can suddenly sell bitcoin to their customers with a few clicks from 2020, that is a big digital transformation of the traditional banks. It could finally enable the bitcoin and blockchain industry in Germany to compete on equal terms with other states. Although the Federal Council still has to approve the new law, the approval is considered certain.

I opened a thread about that here:
From 2020, the sale and custody of Bitcoin will be allowed to all German banks
