I absented myself from here for most of the last couple of years to go and spend time in the real world, so now have no idea what the Vegeta thing is all about. Could someone explain succinctly (apologies to those who are anti-Vegeta).

As far as I understand it Vegeta is a Prince from a kids cartoon in which most of the characters are named after vegetables. Someone started posting a picture of him each time we hit a new ATH.

The long version is here.

It would be interesting to see a new poll re btc price EOD tomorrow (say 11:59:59 pm Monday, Central european or London time)

1. Less than 3100
2. Between 3100 and 5000.
3. Between 5000 and 7000
4. Above 7000



That said, I think that SP500 futures have got to reverse by the market open and stock rally has to ensue (at some point tomorrow) since it is close to the last chance for a while.
EDIT: if weekly are counted by the day close today in central european time, then we did close marginally below 200wk average, which probably does not mean a lot.

Just as Sparta (the movie 300) was a meme when we first hit $300, the children's cartoon character Vegeta (It's over 9000!) became a meme for first hitting $9000.

Since the price has fluctuated past it several times already, it has become an ongoing meme. The  last couple of times, members have sponsored contests for being the first to post an image meme. Since there were some concerns about cheating, more stringent criteria were called for this time.

Out of curiosity: where in the world is Waldo (Trace Mayer)?
Pomp is around , planB as well, even Tone Vays, but Trace is missing in action (at least on twitter).
Interesting...maybe sold too many puts on his bitcoin? He was always professing that trade (through LedgerX), which I find inane.
I wonder how many blockfi loans got liquidated as well...

Trace Mayer lost a lot of credibility after shilling Mimblewimble coin in this interview and got flamed by the BTC maxi's
I think he's to ashamed to show his face now. His bags must be heavy.

@APompilano
The Fed just announced historic actions of emergency rate cut to zero and $700 billion in quantitative easing.

Stock futures just opened 5 minutes ago and they are already falling.

The market is basically calling the Fed's bluff...
https://twitter.com/apompliano/status/1239311910870364161?s=21

they already hit the stop band hit of 5% and stopped to open at 1,041 down I think it is...

thus they are not to impressed by the Fed's action to 0% or more likely it is a 'oh sh*t" the Fed dropped it to 0% we are looking like a real crisis here

sell, sell, sell

It would b nice if the BTC/Crypto market at least went sideways and/or up a bit to show an alternative to printing $$$ the rest and such

we will see I guess

... this is not good. Bitcoin is now 'under management', probably by agents acting for the state, closing the exits in time of escape from dollar facist fiat system using futures pricing fables. I've seen this movie before, it is how it began with gold.

I really wish our President would shut the fuck up. Every time his mouth opens things get worse.

Maybe that is the plan.

Looks bearish! Institutional volume selling the open... ain't checked stocks, but that "micro correlation" Bitcoin is suffering from appears to be continuing (that of bearish selling pressure). Just checked S&P, big bounce on the open, nothing relevant seen on Bitcoin = Even more bearish short-term, always long-term bullish though  
Someone please merit this chart I'm out, then BTFD. More info from someone paying more attention than me right now.

“Forget this 2008 financial crisis playbook,” Bair said. “We never focused enough on the real problem in 2008, which was homeowners,” she said, adding that she “loves the idea” of recent proposals that aim to get cash straight into the hands of households who are grappling with shuttered schools, businesses and more.

I'm sure this money will find its way into the "right" pockets, no doubt.....

Is Lambie still changing data to make his predictions true?

hahahaha

Nah... that would never happen. 

He's NOT a wannabe sorcerer wannabe. 

He's actually legit.  Don't be shy... just ask him, and he will tell you.
