While checking the total sum:

Anti LGBT politician escaping a drug, 25 men gang bang party through window/roof hatch when police arrives
(...)

You probably all know I live in Brussels. As you can see, here's "Le Detour" where "it" all happened, on the right side, and exactly on the other side of the street, where the red arrow is pointing to, there's the Brussels police head office. Which explains why there's so many police cars parked in the street: street parking in this street is police-only.



You really have to be a retard to organize a gangbang at that exact place. Chance of getting caught, well, about 150%. Maybe they were turned on by men in uniforms...

The important question that no-one seems to have asked, however: were they using dildos and if so, were they red or green?

For all the WO bulls out there, those wearing the silly caps and posting almost exclusively in one thread, here are my current concerns.

After a month of price being overbought, we have now confirmed a rejection from returning to overbought levels. While price remains in bullish territory, a break below 55 could see a re-test of bearish price strength:

I'm not bearish yet, the $17.9K support level still needs to be broken by the bears with confidence and follow through. There's a good chance we bounce from the 21 Day MA again (blue line, bull trend moving average) like we did a few days ago, creating a textbook bullish higher low. But if we don't, and we end up back at $16K, it's not going to be pretty.

I'm still 95% in. Ironically the 3.5% I sold at $18K from the previous break-down I now no longer need due to a tax based administrative error 

It does mean that capital is now back in the order books trying to pick up a wick on a low liquidity exchange pair

It's soon time for strong hands. If you need to sell a % or two to make you feel better about a correction that could go as deep as 25-35% ($13-15K), now is the time to think about it.

To all beartards shilling for some mumbo-jumbo Unicrap shitcoin DEFI shitsystem: you realize that you only report pumps/ups post-factum you never managed to predict a single one. Instead, you're always here to predict doom and gloom 35% dumps etc...  90% of your predictions are bearish (the same for Wekkel) c'mon get a life guys

Of course, I'm only posting here for some signature campaign (where signature aren't shown!) not cos I actually care about people's opinions here or this thread 

I say I'm not bearish and then get accused of being 90% bearish, while hodling 95%+ of wealth in Bitcoin for last few months? I must be doing it all wrong!

I only warn people that 35% corrections exist, are routine and normal. The question is not if but when. 90% of my TA is neutral and critical, ie not a perma-bull no.

And sure, I've never made an accurate prediction of Bitcoin in my entire life. I'm always wrong, every single time.

So I'm thinking if we do go sideways here for a while, all it will be is the small handle for our 2018-2020 big cup. When it breaks up from here, and it will, I expect a doubling in price before another decent correction/sideways movement. Kind of like the move from March 2017.

like 2017, I'm not worried if it takes a few months to achieve this. But with the continued destruction of sound money globally it might not even take that long before the bulls are recharged.

Buy every dip.

Highly time for you to gain Hero ---> Legendary status.... could max send 34 as I already send 16 in the last Month your way

Satisfaction, from my point of view, is self-made. [...]

yes. i find this related to one of my mottos "fun is where you find it." satisfaction is where you find it too and of course can change throughout ones life.

satisfaction for one may be being out of debt. another ones level may be knowing you have food and shelter for ones family for the immediate future. another may be just a dependable car. then there are those who want that black (or pink) helicopter on the helipad in the back yard for satisfaction. ive been at the 1st three that i mentioned, but dont aspire to last though. hope i dont get that self indulgent really.

I can look at my bitcoin "stash", have three choices:

1. Most WOs have way more corn than me
2. I have *insert low number here* coins, but most people i know have none and probably never will.
3. Hey, i own bitcoins! fucking brilliant!

number three is all that matters to me, and i have no need to compare the amount to anyone.. nocoiner, whale, or anyone in between.

kinda related: "life changing amounts" was discussed earlier. my life changing amount allowed me to retire many years earlier than even my most optimistic target. sweet for me. but that amount would be pocket change to many (most?) here.

Politics and retards, always a high correlation there...

Imho, they just either forgot to invite the chief of police, or to pay that hush-money to the police officers from across the street.
 

The important question that no-one seems to have asked, however: were they using dildos and if so, were they red or green?

When they started the party, they were green. Some of them turned red. Don't be too tight fisted (had to LOL there) with the lubricant

Well, hero status would be nice but I'm shocked by the amount of generosity, thank you.

Every bull run gets me more active in the comments section so I'm in no doubt that I'll get to hero with this run. Maybe next run, I'll even make legendary. Bitcoin will probably be near a million then. Problem with that though is that a simple loaf of bread will probably be $10, and I will be thanking my past self daily for having enough sense to not have listened to all the so called economic and hedge fund gurus saying it was all a scam in 2013.

Since the last crash in March, we had only one correction of 20%, which is very unusual. Of course the explanation is obvious - big investors entered the market with the purpose of long term holding. Some TA 'experts' may claim that a correction is at the corner, but looking at the liquidity of the exchanges and how quickly the price recovers, I just don't see it. May be if the price increases 30%+ for a day, we will see some more significant correction. But if the current trend of 4-5% daily gains continues, I would expect more like sideways periods in some 10-15% channel from the ATH after each doubling.

"First they ignore you..."

More big players like Larry Fink will come. Michael Saylor was one of them too.

Hell, many of us were too! I was. Not like this, I always liked Bitcoin as a concept, an idea, an innovation. But I only bought 0.5 BTC for $110 in 2015, when I had fiat readily available to buy more than 400 BTC at that time. I only bought 0.5! Why? Because I was scared. Of course, all of the fiat I mentioned have now been fully converted to BTC, but spread over many years of buying and HoDLing, up to 2020. Result: I ended up with a fraction of the amount of coins I could now have. Same holds true for Saylor and the rest of the naysayers-turned-supporters.

Lesson learnt: early bird gets the worm — got to be brave, to take risks, to not chicken out. I chickened out. Just like Saylor and many others.

The same will happen to many of the current newcomers who, again, will not buy as much as they can, because they're scared, or because "it's too expensive". And they will make a post similar to this in 5 years' time. Rinse & repeat.

I think these are people who are not too intelligent, regardless of their positions in society. It took people like him a few years to understand what BTC is, and maybe even now they don't fully understand what it's all about - but they want to join the trend, because if everyone speaks positively about BTC, why be in the minority that criticizes it.

[Dabs]

Everyone's view on what is a comfortable or "content" life varies, but a lot of people are currently in situations where just a little bit more income to pay for expenses is all that is needed.

The alternative is to try and live lower, for some people that can be done, for others is already difficult.

One can be happy by being content. You can also estimate this number by simply looking at your average expenses for the past year. If you do ever get enough corn such that one day a small percentage of it pays your annual expenses, then you can probably either retire, or work less.

The usual number I see floating around is 4%. So if BTC hits $1 million, and you only need close to $40k per year (in addition to any other money you are making right now), then ... you could try to live with that. If you have a whole 1 BTC that is. This implies investing it outside of BTC in the traditional stock market, so if you just keep it in BTC, you'll want more than 4% per year price appreciation.

t is the ultimate marshmallow challenge.  Many of us have lowered our time preference so much we are just not going to let go of much even when it does go up quite a bit.

For me personally the formula revolves around comfortable retirement and a little diversification into property.  I just don't want to spend much money on stupid shit, or even living large.  And I am acutely aware that the longer I wait the more I will be left with in the end.

That is where the real crux is, in my opinion.  Where that point is for each whale/minnow.

You sir, are very wise.

Anyone not following a similar recommendation/approach is going to end up with massive regrets before they die.

I see so many here joking about blowing their bitcoin "winnings" on fancy cars, frivolous shit and such, and inwardly I know some of them aren't really joking.

You know what they say ‘Youth is wasted on the young’ by the time we have the mental clarity to appreciate our actions and the long term effect they have on our lives we already missed those opportunities and they are way behind us.

It is natural to be excited about bitcoin and its potential and to want to have an endless party with our earnings when we are young but it is only when you are older when you realize that such thing is simply not worth it, one of those frivolous things are fancy cars, lambos as the community call them, even if they have no intention to buy specifically a Lamborghini, but why do we need one? Who are we trying to impress? It is way better to not focus ourselves in medium maximization and to focus on how we can use that medium to actually achieve happiness.

Exactly.

I can tell anyone here, once you have enough bitcoin to buy a Lambo ten times over, not only will you *not* want one, you also realize that it would be huge mistake to buy one.

This shit really pisses me off. These so called "U-Turns" are not sound/smart people merely waking up one day and changing their minds.

They are the wealthy elites that have known about Bitcoin's true nature since the day they learned about it, but have been part of a massive, coordinated, nine-year MSM smear campaign against Bitcoin in order to influence the public to stay away.

I guess they are very smart people indeed.

But they want to preserve their status in the first place.

When you cannot profit from bitcoin, or actually you could be damaged by bitcoin, you actively fight, whatever the narrative you want to push about: "rat poison", money for dumb people, drug trafficker money, etc.
But then, when you realise there are money to be made on it, when you see Grayscale getting paid 2%, while your funds gain a mere 0.25% maximum, well, you start thinking on how you can profit, riskless, from it.
Now that they figured out that they can, or are going to profit from it, they need to pass the idea bitcoin is the ultimate SoV, so that they an profit from people gullibility, once again. BE it bitcoin, stocks, Nasdaq start-up or whatever the "average Joe" will always be drawn into any shitty investment those people want to.
Now they want everyone to invest in Bitcoin, well, they are more than welcome, they are here to profit, but this changes anything about bitcoin.

If I could afford to buy ten lambos for cash

I will probably end up getting a Toyota or a Honda ... You could get a Corolla or even Camry or Civic depending on your tastes and have a lot of fun with it without worrying what you'll do for a few years down the road.

I already have a Toyota, and loving it. I wouldn't go near a Lambo, even if you paid me. I hate this brand of cars. And, strangely (or not), I tend to dislike Lambo owners too. The few I've met were arrogant, ignorant, uneducated, "thick" types, that just wanted to show off their wealth. Not my type.
