Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[BayAreaCoins]

Some of my friends have received their free magic money from the Government... I'm hoping mine is in by Friday.

Surely we see Bitcoin pump a little this and next week!

[JayJuanGee]

Enough with this chop. We need a good pump and not a fake bullshit one.

Yeah, I expect 8000-9000 as we get to the halving, even with COVID19 stunting our growth. Anybody think we’ll see a significant pump before the halving?

12-14k not a satoshi less. I predicted new ATH before/at the halving but coronavirus dump was something I didn't quite expect..   

I was thinking $12k-ish before corona...

but now, I am thinking that even here is a fair price at halvening...

In other words, there is no reason that we have to have any pump before, near or after halvening.. and in fact, there are decent odds that bearwhale manipulators are going to dump the fuck out of these times around the halvening in order to strive to manipulate BTC HODLers into believing that either the stock to flow model is broken or that it needs to be shifted in the downwards direction.

A question remains about whether the bearwhales are going to be successful in their efforts to either shake confidence in the stock to flow model or to even break it.  Time to tell, and I believe that the bearwhales are ultimately going to lose the battle, but that seemingly likely (or inevitable) loss does not mean that they are not going to put forth a valiant and maybe even sustainable effort to get some HODLers to part with their coins, even while it is not in the interest of HODLers to actually part with their coins.

Don't get me wrong.  I am not even saying that we have to have down before up.  All I am attempting to suggest is that short-term UP is not inevitable, even if there happens to be this little pumpening phenomenon known as halvening... fuck the halvening, in the short term, even though we know that the halvening is a very solid event in terms of ongoing upwards price pressures.. that are likely to win the day, even though unlimited printing of bbbbbrrrrrr can be thrown at it to attempt to cause such halvening to NOT have short term positive consequences.  Also, don't get me wrong.. I am sticking with my model and I am not selling shit in the downward or flat direction, and yeah, I don't want it to go down, but I have money to buy at least down to quite low prices, if it comes to it (which I don't assign as likely, but still possible)...

BTC will be over $10k when she halves. (my bet anyways)

@TheMoonCarl
The search volume for "Bitcoin Halving" just reached a new all time high. So, it's higher than the high of the previous halving in 2016!

This is bullish!

It's time for lift off 🚀

One of the scary parts of the current Covid separating of people seems to be that even folks who are on their deathbeds seem to be less able to communicate with family members, which seems to have been partly true with Bruno, but is likely worse when some people end up getting intubated because they end up having the virus or even a quickly deteriorating physical condition and therefor are not really able to communicate last words (which does not seem to have been the case with Bruno from what information we have, and maybe we do not even need to know those kinds of details).

Surely if we do not know details regarding how much or how well that some people might not have been able to communicate in the end or even if they were able to communicate all of their final wishes regarding use of funds, the second best case scenario would be that someone in a situation like Bruno's would have been at least able to appoint someone that he trusted to handle those affairs and to carry out his intentions to the best of their abilities, including if there may have been some changes in circumstances or expected expenses...

For example, if Bruno's body is NOT going to be transported to Indiana, which seems to be the case because of the description of cremation, that expense is NOT there but there still might be other similar kinds of expenses or even some second level intentions that are known by the trustee that Bruno appointed and have not been communicated to us by Bruno, so even if Bruno may not have known how some of his death expenses were going to play out at least the person who he appointed would thereby try to carry out Bruno's wishes in other ways.  It sounded like Bruno was soliciting funds (in the final "exit scam') to try to allay some his final death expenses from his next of kin. 

In these kinds of circumstances, sometimes it is not easy to know what is going on exactly, which nutildah had mentioned, or even to anticipate what is going to happen with the funds with specifics, including whether the Corona virus situation had some unexpected turn of events for Bruno's specifics, and surely Bruno seemed to have ended up dying nearly 50 days sooner than what he had communicated to us.. which may have caused for some less preparations being carried out, perhaps?  Anyhow, as I am trying to suggest, how donated funds are used would be a matter of concern for anyone who had donated to that fund** and should be alleviated somewhat, too, if Bruno, at least was able to ensure that someone he trusted had control over the funds, and without specifics nutildah seems to be assuring that a person that Bruno trusts had been assigned by Bruno. 

**Similarly, anyone who might still be contemplating sending more funds to any of those addresses that Bruno had provided would reasonably have similar concerns.

FFS JJG, if you're not an AI, you're damn close to one.

Anybody who donated, really doesn't give a fuck on how, when, and if, the funds are spent.
Shouldn't anyways. You're totally missing the point here.

PS: Make sure to DYOR next time. 50 days sooner? Corona? Not transported? You can be such a dick.

You seem to be easily distracted into irrelevancy.

Where is the sweet and attempting to be relevant Cryptotourist?  Did such a persona ever exist, or was that online persona merely acting and playing around until he could muster enough merits to appear genuine and relevant?, and then he would devolve into nonsensical and irrelevant distracting attempts?  Hopefully, at some point, you can grow the fuck up  and try to get back to relevance (to the extent that I imagined you to have had been capable of such) rather than ongoingly childish, misleading presentations, ad hominem attacks and fact-denying behaviors.

I'm fully expecting this attempt.

That's a pretty high expected return in less than a month.  I am not going to complain if it happens, but I doubt that it is prudent to place very high odds of such.. even assigning higher than 35% odds to getting 45%-ish returns in 30 days seems more like gambling rather than attempting to really predict with realistic fact and logic based prudence.

Exactly... whether it is successful is another story (or at least a related story).

Huh?  I am not saying that covid is irrelevant in this thread or even its connection to bitcoin and/or current events that are relevant to our discussion including macro considerations. 

I am saying that the recent posts of cryptotourist have been devolving into mostly bullshit emotional irrelevance.. .anyhow, I believe that my earlier post, here speaks for itself, including the fact that cryptotourist is linking one of my posts from another thread (involving discussion of Bruno's death and circumstances surrounding Bruno's solicitation of donations to a death fund), which just shows that fucktwat cryptotourist has been becoming so damned emotional and wanting to engage in personal attacks rather than really giving any benefit of the doubt about what I had actually posted in regards to Bruno's situation in that other thread.

But the state’s unemployment system is built on aging software running on a decades-old coding language known as COBOL. Over the years, COBOL programmers have aged out of the workforce, forcing states to scramble for fluent coders in times of national crisis.

Heard an interesting theory today.


What if the singularity is already here.

And this whole thing is just some AI trying something out.


I personally am impressed at how quickly whomever is behind all of this shut down the world so quickly and so easily.

I would not be surprised if some very wealthy guy just won a bet.

Definitely no normal please.

Sadly no.  And I will surprised if we do not see a selloff around the halving. 

But I hope I am wrong.

[Raja_MBZ]

Maybe we all should just pack our bags, forget hodl, sell off our BTC, and enjoy the last few days of our life before this corona thing kills us.

Aren't you one of the guys that are still waiting for sub $4k levels?

 

I wish I was one of those guys, back in January, as afterwards BTC did reach sub-$4k levels.

But I guess I'll never be bearish on BTC, not even for a single hour.
