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

Hertz has filed for Chapter 11

I saw a list recently of the airlines all filing for bankruptcy. Quite a list of countries, not just the obvious.

I know it is somewhat OT for WO, but since mimblewimble and grin were discussed here recently I'll drop the link that was posted on the cypherpunk ml by grarpamp yesterday as I found it an interesting read:

TL;DR: Mimblewimble’s privacy is fundamentally flawed. Using only $60/week of AWS spend, I was able to uncover the exact addresses of senders and recipients for 96% Grin transactions in real time.

Drumroll please!

I proudly present my new xhomerx hat:

 

 


The creation of the hat was a very intense process for xhomerx and I sincerely hope he recovers quickly from all the painful bites he got while trying to squeeze the little critters onto the hat to take a photo.

That said, I do take pleasure in crash testing and exploring your technical limits.

We don't its very boring and repetitive

Understood.
Tell that to the bozo, whilst getting him off my back.

so from this, we will need some time for the next try to cross the upper line, few months or so, and that is in line with expectation after the halving, a bit down, and then we should expect upward direction, if we do not break bottom line on the graph

Good interview, a bit more substantive than the usual cointelegraph fare...

The main thing that I think most people miss when they come to crypto is when they know they’ve worked in something on Wall Street or something on Main Street and they say, “Oh, my gosh. If I just take this and transport it to the blockchain, it's going to be the next big thing. All I have to do is take the best idea of how Wall Street steals money from people and deliver it on the blockchain, and I'm gonna be a billionaire.”

I dunno, the docs and insurance seemed to have no problem putting a price on mine.

Hi WO!!!

Why Bitcoin Claiming This Crucial Level Will Set the Stage for a Move to $11,000

“Bitcoin found support on the daily and is mainting its uptrend. Red block is key for me, if we reject from there it’ll confirm distribution above March’s high and I expect much lower. If we can reclaim the red block I am looking to long a pullback to $11k,” he wrote.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Pretty much where we were yesterday... currently $9218USD/$12858CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

No news is good news, I guess.

As for the poll, I'll take the corn.

I've got the other 2 categories covered. I make my own pizza and I prefer an experienced, adult woman. Besides, Pizzagirl needs butt reduction surgery.

Actually, I'm doing OK in all 3 categories but one can always use more corn.

Can't believe the hat fad is still going on.

Fad?

Hip-hop was a fad. Cellphones are a fad.

WO hats are a metaphysical and spiritual breakthrough, a new paradigm.

On the 30min chart, things are crawling up. Cautiously optimistic about a small late Easter pump.

I hope you're right...  I think the next 30m/3day/2months/etc are critical.

That said, the volume on this rise is so low.  Hopefully it's the front of it.

Until the corona pandemic is not over, bitcoin price isn't going anywhere.

Interesting theory, above.

On the day of that above post, BTC prices had bounced between about $6,500 and $7k, and sure there can be some unfairness to go back and criticize any post or price prediction that is more than 5 weeks old...

Yet, we see that bitcoin does not have a tendency to NOT go anywhere, and sure we have a question about the macro-situation, including the stock market in the coming months, maybe preceding the US elections in November.
Can the stock market be propped up until November, and also there might be a decent amount of optimism about opening up in the past week or so, but the data is not looking good, even when spin is applied and surely we are not hearing about all the data, but it will be quite surprising to NOT get a lot of carnage out of the current opening situation, and how do you keep matters propped up, such as the stock market, in such circumstances.

And, then how will bitcoin perform?  Will it continue to "not go nowhere," and of course, when we go past $20k, there will also likely be assertions that it is NOT going anywhere at that time too.... but sure, it could take a bit of time to get to over $20k, but I still believe that LFC has decently good odds in his favor, which is surely surpassing $19,666 by the end of 2021... that should be easy, peasy whether the corona virus is resolved by then or not, no?

Curious fact..

The month May has been the second most profitable month for #Bitcoin in the last 10 years. Estrellas en los ojos

This guy doesn't get it.

But he knows how to leverage other peoples money into his pocket so its a good idea to stay away from him.
