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

[Room101]

It's weird how complicated people like to make shit. People have been talking about Elliot waves and bitcoin since I started here in 2013. Buy now, sell now, definitely this is what the future holds. Sounds fucking stressful if you ask me. Plus a recipe to end up with 0 bitcoin. I'm sure there are people out there that have made a killing, survivorship bias and all that. Maybe even a couple know what the fuck they are talking about. Still stressful.

With btc the KISS principle has always worked out pretty fucking well, and will continue to do so as far as I can see.

Buy bitcoin. Only sell if you absolutely have to. Like a loved one needs a kidney, or the bank is coming to repossess your house or some shit. In bear markets don't look at the price. Sometimes for years. Chill the fuck out. Don't think you are smarter than you really are, sure as fuck don't think you are smarter than the chaos that is bitcoin price movements.

Buy bitcoin. Don't stress. Don't sell. Don't be greedystupid.

If every chart producing oracle that has come and gone from these pages had done that, there would be a lot more rich forum members. Your charts, models and fancy theories will send you broke. I'll still be here. Once I forgot my password for 3 years. Thank god for JohnTheRipper.

Buy bitcoin. Chill the fuck out.

Great ideas, except the part about forgetting your password(s).  With bitcoin, and the power (and responsibility of being your own bank), you gotta stay active enough, at least, to check your passwords from time to time, even if it is just a couple times a year.

- Carnage happening in Brazil due to Jair Bolsonaro misplaced policy, 2 health ministers already resigned.

What's this about specifically?

Sao paulo digging 13.000 graves to cover all those corpses, people die in their own blood because they don't have ventilators.

Massgraves appears all over they country.

Ooooh. I remember working on this stuff with other countries. The soccer fields turned into graves were pretty interesting to spot next to the little burned huts.

Reality exists. Oh well.

Meantime looks like Bitcoin is doing well today. About time to see 10k+

$11,000+ excites me, feels a long time since we touched those lofty heights.

We're going to have THE PUMP every day now, right? 

[El duderino_]

We're going to have THE PUMP every day now, right? 

I could live with that

[soullyG]

Definitely. I miss the days of $2k pumps every morning 

[LFC_Bitcoin]

Definitely. I miss the days of $2k pumps every morning 

It’ll be $5,000 - $10,000 daily pumps at the absolute peak of this bull run IF things work out like they should.

[vapourminer]

observing ~9.4k USD. it will do. for now,

better than the 8ks a bit ago. unless im hallucinating again.. but the MDs assured me that those hallucinations would stop after a while.

[The Real John Titor]

This was a great time in the history of Bitcoin. You people should like what happens over the next few months.

[JayJuanGee]

We're going to have THE PUMP every day now, right?  

Well, remember the pump from $250 to $19,666 took a bit over two years.

And, maybe we could label this as the pump from $3,500 (middle of the bottom) to $200k-ish (give or take).

So, if we are currently at $9k, that would still be relatively early in the pumpening... something comparable to $600 - $700.

I just remember having pumpenings that would happen for days or maybe a few weeks, and then pauses for decent periods followed by continued pumpenings.. but not really knowing when they would come, if a pump would be a long one or a short one.

The seemingly consistent pumpening of about every day came in the last couple of months, but even then, even while we were exponential from about $4k to $19,666, there would come once in a while pullbacks, and then continued pounding upwards.  I believe that, currently, it is not too likely that we are very close to that level of happening, yet.. that would be difficult to sustain, currently....

But, what the hell do I know?  I mean, sometimes there may be some changes in the pattern, just to mess us up..... We had the three month pumpening from $4,200 to $13,880, and i could see something like that taking us to a $17k-ish level.. within a few months.  Such BTC price performance would be a bit much, but not out of the question from where we are at, currently.

You are not really helpful with your lame attempt at comedy, conclusory living in a fantasy-land sorcery wanna-be assertions.

Wow, good to see the real John Titor is here. There's a lot of phonies out there.

I have so many questions:

When does the coronavirus pandemic end?

Is Keith Richards still alive in 2036?

What happens if you hang around in our timeline for 16 more years, are you going to party with your younger self?

How old are you? Were you alive during the first halvings? Did you manage to hodl all the time or did you do a mindrust some time on the road? We wanna know.

It doesn't. It becomes something like the common cold, or flu season. You build up antibodies to certain strains, but it ends up mutating seasonally.

Is Keith Richards still alive in 2036?

No.

What happens if you hang around in our timeline for 16 more years, are you going to party with your younger self?

No desire to stay in this timeline for longer than a few months, but Command had their reasons for sending me here, now. I just follow orders.

I'm not cleared to share current age data at this time. Yes, I was a child during the first halving. To be honest, I'm not HODLing very much. Only 0.12 BTC in my time, assuming I return to something resembling the timeline I left. The longer I stay at a place in time, the more we have observed divergence upon my return.

Subtleties and Security

Abstract: This piece is written by Bitcoin Core maintainer and BitMEX guest writer, Michael Ford. Michael is the first recipient of the expanding HDR Global Trading Limited Bitcoin developer grant program. This follows on from Michael’s first piece for us: Build Systems & Security – Bitcoin Is Improving. In this new piece, Michael explains four security improvements to Bitcoin Core that he has been working on:

1. Fixing a hidden bug which prevented a security check from occurring,
2. Fixing a security weakness on Windows,
3. Solving a problem which weakened the random number generator caused by a failure to detect a function on MacOS, and
4. Adding tests for a discrepancy in the behaviour of the macOS linker, when compared to the documentation.

This work illustrates the importance of testing on multiple platforms.

Somewhere, jonoiv is smoking a crack pipe, still waiting for $2,000 so he can buy back in.

We’ve had many pairs of resident weak hands lose it all with a moment of indecision/panic. mindrust was the latest, use them as motivation to not follow their cowardly ways.

HODL = WINNING

[UnDerDoG81]

Remember when $10 pumps were big. Then, Gox times and 2014 ATH $100 pumps were huge. Now its $1k pumps that seem huge. Whats after next ATH? $10k pumps in one day? That would mean if you own 10 BTC and sell perfectly on top and buy on the lowest, you could make $100k a day in a perfect scenario

I think all the bear trolling and attempts at scamming around Bitcoin is super weird. Go to any Precious Metals web forum and you never see bugs talking about TA charts, elliott waves, when to buy, when to sell, trying to call bottoms/tops, blah blah blah. Just "buy PMs when you like, and buy as close to spot as possible". They are just happy to be able to buy and hold, never to sell unless they have to. No talk about trying to get super rich with PMs, they just plan to hold for years/decades. And instead of panicking when the PMs price dips crazy, they instead talk about "backing up the truck".

More people coming into Bitcoin need to think this way.
