An earlier glimpse of mic's hats.

^^


WHICH one gotta wear tomorrow ?

Somewhere I made a post about eating my hat if blahblah happened with a picture of a cake hat. This no doubt precedes Hairy's attempts.
No doubt whatsoever.

Anyway I take it all back none of that matters, it was just so cool of xhomerx10 to design that genesis hat. What were you thinking, comrade?

 What was I thinking? 

I was working my 3rd x 12 hour night shift in a row.  I went for coffee early in the morning, checked in on the WO thread and saw a bit of excitement brewing so I checked the charts and got a little excited myself when I saw the big green dildo (noHomo)
 
 
WTF is happening?  Anybody know the reason for the big green dildo?
 
 

 Yes, my hairdresser bought Some BTC’s this morning  Tongue

 Then I saw this post
 
 
SEV UHN GRAND!
 
 SEV UHN GRAND!
 
 SEV UHN GRAND!
 
 
 WHOOOO'S WITH MEEEEEEE?

 Which got me even more excited... and even though I HATE trying to post anything in the WO with my phone, I managed to find an image, and post it with absolutely no modifications at all and micgoossens called me out on it -
 
 

 
 Edit: trying to post from my phone... sorry no proper image tools
 

 Good good .... Then for once you can’t outperform all the rest Grin

Even though I knew he was joking, I felt the need to do something extraordinary to redeem myself once I returned home from work.   Later on that morning...
 
 
Lol apparently BfX has said deposits / withdrawals resume tomorrow.  Unconfirmed rumor.  It’s not on their Twitter.  
 
 
 

 have you ever eaten a hat?

 
Well that depends.  What sort of hat?

your own. full of doomy predictions and other rubbish

Lol apparently BfX has said deposits / withdrawals resume tomorrow.  Unconfirmed rumor.  It’s not on their Twitter.  



have you ever eaten a hat?

Free Hat!

~snip
There ain't no such thing as a free hat. This will end doomily. Wait for it.


Then it hit me: about a month earlier, micgoossens had posted a bear and a bull hat (and also a fuckin' squirrel hat) so with all the hat talk and Mr MicG's penchant for hats, I knew I had to do something with a hat.  I searched for hats with a "G" on them and found them at Goorin Bros but I was still at work.  I was worried it might be a stale joke by the time I got home and was able to make something.
 I got home around 8am and began searching for the hat I was going to use.  My plan was to make a hat for HairyMaclairy to "eat" and I see this post:


maybe Kucoin has their own vested intenrest in feeding the tether fud.  

Precisely.  It's all whale games.

Give this man a new hat. 

The hat theme persists!  I need to hurry.
 Then MicG makes another hat post

 
 
maybe Kucoin has their own vested intenrest in feeding the tether fud.  
 

 Precisely.  It's all whale games.
 
 Give this man a new hat. 
 

 wich one, i got a few hat's.
 
 

This hat idea was obviously meant to be.  I had found the hat to use and was looking for a larger sized image of a monkey tossing darts.
 
 
Where did you get the hats Mic?

Where did you get the hats Mic?

Bought them in Mallorca and barca....

BUT ONLINE

https://store.goorin.com/mens-hats/featured/top-sellers

Goorin brothers hats .....

I was glad to see the hat theme being refreshed since it would make my post seem relevant even though it came many hours after the fact.  I intended to reply to a different post (ie HairyMaclairy's "What sort of hat?" post) but I was really tired and this one presented itself.  It wasn't until later that I realised it was Hairy saying "Give this man a new hat." so it didn't actually seem like I had given it to Hairy but it was his avatar...

 I'm home Wink


The "I'm home Wink" was meant for MicG - he knew it and I felt that I had redeemed myself and had also demonstrated that there was such a thing as a free hat.  Then I went for a much needed sleep.
 Later that evening while reading through the thread, I saw this...

 
 
Volume is still looking nice.
 

 People seem confused and disorientated. Like they just got hit on the head with a hammer, while wearing a hat, before eating it. Roll Eyes

...and immediately thought, "Rosewater needs a hat!"

 While I was making it, he posted this:

 People seem confused and disorientated. Like they just got hit on the head with a hammer, while wearing a hat, before eating it. Roll Eyes
 

 Something is wrong with the mayor. seems confused. too much herb?
 

 He's fine. He's right where I left him. Wrapped in plastic.
 
 Now, can we please stay on topic.
 
 I'm trying to think!

  Which was my segue for posting his hat. (I said it was a thinking cap)
  I made one the same night for JJG because he made me LOL with his shitposting cat gif saying "Get out of my way V8!" (what the hell, it's already a huge post)

 
 
 
  jjg-
 
 
  Get out of my way, V8!!!!!!
 
 
 
 
 

 The thought of the hat as an avatar hadn't even crossed my mind but I saw JJG posted this:
 
 
jjg-
 

 Get out of my way, V8!!!!!!
 
 
 

  That cat made me laugh; you get a hat too!
 
 
 

 Almost makes me feel like changing my avatar...

 and a bit later, Rosewater posted this:
 
You need to be fast if you wanna beat a V8 to a post ....

Pft. All salience, no hat.

I believe Rosewater had resized the hat to fit the avatar dimensions and was the first one to use it as an avatar.  There was a bit more banter about the hats between V8, Rosewater and Hairy and then micgoossens posted this:
 

 
  ^
  The hats are F***ing beautyfull
 
  Nice work xhomerx ...... very Nice  Wink

At that point I could not stop.  The hat avatars were well received, I got a lot of support (especially from micgoossens who kept track of who needed a hat) and praise and I really enjoyed making them - I still do! - it's a lot of fun.  Sometimes searching for larger versions of avatars led me down some really strange paths but your secrets are safe with me... mainly due to my Alzheimer's.   I cannot believe VB1001 created the wohats.com site for us.  That's the icing on the Wall Observer cake.

And indeed you did Smiley

Awesome story. Now the "Legend" of the WO hats is perfectly documented (with VB1001's effort) for posterity from all points of view.

You have surely given us a colourful gift to endure what would have otherwise been a dark and very boring crypto winter. Thanks for that!


P.S.: Now that I think about it, my hat is probably the darkest and least colourful of all hats to date... but I am the only one to blame for that lol

I hope BMB is doing OK  Undecided

Really hope so.

I was never quite sure if he REALLY had sold all or most of his BTC at around $3K-$4K. I really hope he didn't or that he rebought soon after before the big bounce.

I agree.

We had all this "front running" talk in the early/middle of the year and it looks like it may be longer cycles now. Really hard to tell. But the damn halving is around the corner...

This is what I expected and I did not dare to ask you, you are very modest and I have never seen you want to appropriate the success of your hats, I am sure that it has not been easy for you to tell this part of the story.

Thanks xhomerx10.

Your explanation will help me to document more the history of the hats.

It would also help me if V8, Hairy and Micg explained their version, as you just did, then, yes, we would have material for the whole story and it would be completed with the version of each one.

Thx in advanced.

Just like Bob (or whatever his name is) I am waiting for 6.5k. Thought I would wake up and see 6.9 or similar. Disappointed Sad I have my November salary to withdraw and don't want to withdraw at 7.2... On the other hand a profit of 10-15% should be fairly easy from 6.5. I have 6.5 area on December 14 and its running late at the moment.

Here a few other HAT's and the HAT I have chosen for this day accompanied by some cool socks of my mate Grin

You can’t save everybody from selling at the wrong time. There will be many who get out all or too much of their stash at the wrong time.

This is the WO, home to hardened HODLERS, sell at your own peril.

This morning at the gym, DAMN that guy, I knew it from the second I saw him....

Short story when the price was around 6K after ATH, hoovering that boring period, I met someone at our gym and start talking about crypto and he was very excited meeting someone that knows a bit what they talking about, of-course not me but I refer him to my friend and told him about his fund, this guy was interested but never did enter (my friend told me he was a bit shady and was more looking to money laundering etc from his business ...)
But at the gym he was like not buying or whatever and every time talking like BTC is going down further cause he read the news and there is no support and we will not see 8-9K anymore aaaaaaand this guy was knowing about BTC for a month or 2 (previous he was a guy thought octa coin was the shizzle) Roll Eyes
But of-course we went 5K--->4K---->Bottom, and it was like I always saw him in the gym and he always was like Eeeeuhm how is that BTC doing, I don't follow it anymore, is it still good for you?? ? And I was always optimistic and told him yes its a bit lower but I still love my idea and why i'm involved etc
Then the spike UP and he never asked me again till 13K he never asked me again, this morning LoL .... He was like Eeeeuhm Mic? You still busy with this BTC ? I said of-course I had an accident lost them all, but i'm more confident as ever and hope to rebuild what I had and the complete story of BTC= the exact same for me, nothing changed....

But those guys that always asked but know better then anyone the price is dipping  Roll Eyes (At 13K I wasn't bother, I didn't run to him like are you watching... I left him alone if he didn't asked me, BUT guess whats Mic gonna do when we break ATH and when we hit 6-dig, then I wil remind those guys) about what they missed by being F*** lazy and ignorant .... I will be there and remind them

mic, these NOCOINER haters ALWAYS know what the price is. They ask like, ‘how’s bitcoin doing’. They know because they always look. They’re so jealous & worried about what will/could happen with the price that they look even when they don’t own any.

My gf’s family are exactly the same. They sometimes have a little dig (nasty comment) when the price is not doing good. The thing is I’m not much of an asshole but I should be. I should say ‘bitcoin is doing fine actually, I could buy all of your houses without a mortgage right now with my bitcoin’s’.

I will wait until it’s six figures per bitcoin & start handing out sats to them like I do when I give change to homeless people in my town when I shop.

In life there are so many jealous, bitter people. It’s easy to tell who they are. The one’s who can’t help but drop a hateful comment here & there. It helps them forget about how shit their own lives are. There are plenty of people like that here - r0ach, The-One-Above-All etc.

Unexpectedly, despite a ROI 4 times higher than S&P500 since the beginning of the year, the Sharpe ratio of BTC is only a little bit lower than the S&P500 one.
It means BTC isn't disproportionately risky for such a ROI.



Quote
The Sharpe ratio was developed by Nobel laureate William F. Sharpe and is used to help investors understand the return of an investment compared to its risk. The ratio is the average return earned in excess of the risk-free rate per unit of volatility or total risk.
Subtracting the risk-free rate from the mean return allows an investor to better isolate the profits associated with risk-taking activities. Generally, the greater the value of the Sharpe ratio, the more attractive the risk-adjusted return.​
