Bullseye article on ZH. Nailed it. https://www.zerohedge.com/health/p-pandemic-and-o-orwellianBest quote: "Don’t look now but you’ve been screwed again.

ruh-roh ... chinese bat virus labs back on the broadsheets. (craptotourist better get on top of this one) https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/mar/30/china-researchers-isolated-bat-coronaviruses-near-/Chinese government researchers isolated more than 2,000 animal viruses, including deadly bat coronaviruses, and carried out scientific work on them just three miles from a wild animal market identified as the epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Several Chinese state media outlets in recent months touted the virus research and lionized in particular a key researcher in Wuhan, Tian Junhua, as a leader in bat virus work.
... “This is one of the worst cover-ups in human history, and now the world is facing a global pandemic,” Rep. Michael T. McCaul, Texas Republican and ranking member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said last week. Mr. McCaul has said China should be held accountable for the pandemic.
A video posted online in December and funded by the Chinese government shows Mr. Tian inside caves in Hubei province taking samples from captured bats and storing them in vials.
... The seven-minute film boasts that China has “taken the lead” in global virus research and uncovered over 2,000 viruses in the past 12 years, the time since the outbreak of the bat-origin virus that causes severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS).
The deadly virus behind the current pandemic is called SARS Coronavirus-2 and also has been traced to bats.
Prior to China’s discoveries, an estimated 2,284 types of viruses had been found in the previous 200 years, the video says.

I missed the last dip with my last fiat money, because i was too optimistic for the price to get lower even more. You win, JJG ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I refuse to win. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) I prefer to argue with you, even if you scream "uncle" (and maybe even proclaim that I am a genius) 10,003 times. Frequently, what I am suggesting is that it seems to be much MOAR better to always prepare for both BTC price directions in such a way that you don't hardly give any shits about which way the BTC price goes in the short term as long as overall the BTC price has a bit of a tendency towards UPPITY in the longer term. So, yeah, set some BTC buy orders in order that you can buy some lil fiends, if the BTC price dips down. Otherwise, just buy some lil fiends from time to time at whatever price she happens to be. You, Oom, are likely already engaging in such a practice to largely prepare for both Up and down. Nonetheless, there is nothing wrong with playing around a little bit here and there and see if you can time some purchases on dippities rather than on uppities... and if you are NOT playing around with too much moneys, then it should NOT matter too much whether you add a little to your stash at $5,901, $6,457 or at some other price in that broad range. Of course, it feels better on the margins to pick those lil bit lower prices, but in the grand scheme of things, NOT too much mental power or emotion should be expended upon these kinds of price differences except perhaps merely just a bit of attempting to learn from your experiences in regards to how to tweak here and there in such ways that causes uie to be NOT feeling too much emotion about these various ongoing BTC accumulation/stackening efforts.

- Spain overtakes China in cases. It is my opinion that China must be destroyed. They are the national version of a narcissist. They don't care about others, they lie compulsively and they don't take responsibility for their own actions, instead blaming others for them. China delenda est.

What was the price at this sort of time before the halving in 2016, I can’t remember?
Around $400-$500 No, wait, around $600-$700 one month before the halving (july) Meh, we should probably be a bit higher atm then to follow the same path as then. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) Or you could look at it and hope for ten times higher prices in four years. What's that, like a 50% 80% yearly interest? You are never really going to get any kind of exactness in the four-year fractal comparisons. Remember most of 2014 was down to the bottom of the BTC price range that remained in the $200s for most of 2015. So when we finally got a rise of BTC prices in late 2015, it was a quick shot up from $250 to $500 in early November 2015, and then we got stuck largely between $370 and $430 for more than 6 months until the shoot up above $500 in late May 2016 that went up into the $700s and slowly trickled down to $600 by the end of July (around the time of the halvening). So, yeah, summer 2016 was largely a correction that got exacerbated in early August 2016 by the news of the Bitfinex hack that kept BTC prices down for several months in late 2016. In the end, even if NOW we might be below the 2016 line or above the line, who fucking cares, the halvening is not likely going to cause any real meaningful upwards BTC price pressures for several months after the halvening... but sure, of course, we can get surprised with some upwards BTC price spurts, but those upwards BTC price spurts are not at all necessary... and might not even happen, because bitcoin naysayers and bitcoin deniers and bitcoin bearwhales are going to be quite likely to employ the same dumbass manipulation tools that they employed in the last two halvenings, and that is to force the bitcoin price to stay down and to go down further and longer than is logically reasonable in order to shake out as many of you scaredy kitty catties from your coins as they are able to accomplish... And, yeah, maybe they will be successful, and maybe they won't, and I doubt that it is going to follow with any kind of exact similitude in terms of the four year fractal, except that in the end, it is quite likely that the bearwhale manipulators are not likely going to be able to keep the BTC price from ultimately exploding upwardly in a way that is beyond what is normal, controllable, reasonable or modest. So, yeah, it will be good and prudent to have a sufficient amount of coins to pee pare ur lil selfies.. for that likely UPwards BTC price dynamic that remains an asymmetric bet that is far from guaranteed. What was the price at this sort of time before the halving in 2016, I can’t remember?
Around $400-$500 No, wait, around $600-$700 one month before the halving (july) Meh, we should probably be a bit higher atm then to follow the same path as then. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) While we were at 400-500 $ range, I couldn't imagine we gonna hit 10k $. But that year was great. Yeah, but going to $10k was not until the end of the next year (2017). We were largely stuck in the $380 to $430 range through the first 5 months of 2016.. and then when we corrected from the purported bitfinex hackenings in late 2016, we were largely stuck in the $550 to $650 range for a few months before starting to trickle up.. So, my point was that it took a long time to get to $10k.. .. just a few months short of two years.. and then all of a sudden we were there and kind of stayed there for a decent amount of time.

Around $400-$500 No, wait, around $600-$700 one month before the halving (july) ...and it doubled in New Year 2017, [ ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ] ...and it went 5x mid-2017, [ ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) ] ...and it went 40x (ATH) end-2017, [ ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) ] ...and is now 10x of what it was pre-2016-halving. Nice and healthy. [ ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) ] Back-To-The-FutureTM translation:Pre-halving 2020 (now): $6,000 [ ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ] Doing OK. New Year 2021: $12,000 [ ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) ] Getting there... Mid-2021: $30,000 (ATH) [ ![Kiss](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/kiss.gif) ] Carolina looking sexy! You dirty thing! End-2021: $240,000 $100,000 (ATH), [ ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) ] Nice and steady. <--- @mindrust BE THERE !!!2022 onwards: Perma-6-digits, lots of debauchery, some will die of too much hookers 'n' blow, good for us, BTC more scarce! Sorry for the peacock/rainbow post (#nohomo)... Tried to be creative with the BB-Code forum thingy... Couldn't believe how it came out. It's DOS ANSI shit all over again! ...and i'm drunk too...fuck covid-19...Give that fucking drunk another. #nohomoI agree with everything that you say, except that I really doubt that we are going to get to perma-6-digits until perhaps after the 2024 halvening. Call me a fud dud.. but we could reasonably have bottom testings, after peaking in 6-digits in the $30k to $60k range.. any of those kinds of corrections, even though extreme, would be within reasonable expectations given bitcoin's already known history and the passion that bearwhales have historically shown to be ready, willing and able to push BTC prices down for as low and as long as they are able to accomplish..

... righto champs, chumps (who sold at the bottom?) and sundry muppets (go away already?) time to shine.
the black friday March 13 crypto bloodbath is behind us, a day that will live in infamy, and tears of bottom sellers.
Sugar, I knew it you can see the light. As much as I like you bullish, you are not fooling anyone.
seems like the first peak of the first wave is almost here after lockdowns and physical distancing restrictions. ... now how do we relax those restrictions to prevent a second peak? Or is that impossible? Do we stamp it out totally? Or get the fiat money-go-around whirling before it collapses in upon itself? Maybe we need to have rolling lockdowns over the next 18 months? 4 or 5 peaks of the first wave (it's sounding like Elliot wave TA ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ) Then we can prepare for the second wave, next strain that might get going around (released?) ... Rolling lockdowns? First peak? Is that a physical threat? ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)
We are in uncharted territory something I never expected to see within my lifetime. Until there is a vaccine it is likely COVID-19 will be seasonal and will return. That is if we get it under control which is not a given. We don't know if it will mutate into a less virulent strain or become more infectious. And just like the seasonal flu we will most likely need a new vaccine each year. We also don't know yet to what extent survivors are immune to reinfection. Social distancing buys time until there are better treatments and a vaccine.
You should try social distancing from the WO Mr.Magazine. Also never go to bed with Marcus again.
