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

[JimboToronto]

$100k will be next summer at latest. Next December we'll reach $250-$450k. IMHO cards are ok as it's xmas time so why the hell not?   

I agree. Xmas cards it is.

OK. No more cats (sorry Arrie)... no more gay (sorry Bob).

Go Santa go.

An interesting opinion piece on Coindesk. A pearl in a load of semi-trash.

Actually if it unfolds anything like 2017 did, Bitcoiners will hate it too. Because there will be an unbelievable amount of FUD and misinformation going on.

I just don't see how we get a rise year like 2017 was and have it all buttery smooth, bullish, and non-controversial all the way up.

I would love to be dead wrong, of course.

Poor him ?

i dont know why my mind flash backed to summer 2017 

Haha what a retard, I can't believe it... 

is that real? that is what i call a weak hand. on my first buy price crashed hard and did not recover for years. imagine this guy..

I bought Anycubic's newer Mega S. Prusa's are in the same range, afaik even better quality at the higher ended printers and have also good community support.
....

The Anycubic is an excellent choice! I've used it and it's one of the best VFM 3D printers out there. You just need to be comfortable with tweaking and tinkering with the h/w a bit, like you've already done. Printing with PLA, the output is on par with much more expensive printers. It's the more difficult/exotic materials that make the difference IMHO.

And based on Bitcoin's recent performance and expected 2021 price, you'd probably only need 0.1 BTC to get some of the best quality 3D printers out there...

Life's sweet for BTC HoDLers!

Yeah, the thing is a real bargain at 0.1 BTC (this includes a 1kg spool of excellent PLA). I switched to some *m*zon PLA for 0.0011 BTC per kg and that was a bad choice. The Anycubic PLA printed excellently, out of the box, while the cheap one gave me a hard time adjusting parameters to get mediocre results (like Arries mine replica). I always wanted to print ABS, ultimately for a DIY gun, so i came across PETG/CPE because of the fumes when printing ABS. This time i ordered from a specialized dealer.
I got into CNC about a year ago (or make it two, in case my mind fails on this again), and i was thinking quite often about 3DP, but always forgot about it again, mainly because my research for the "best" budget printer never came to an end - a different story.
However, for 0.1BTC this machine is excellent, in the meanwhile i got decent CPE results. And it seems to get "cheaper" over time as well. Thanks, Satoshi  

Yeah, ABS is quite a nasty material to print with. I wouldn't even try it on the Anycubic. As for PLA, I always go for high quality stuff, usually sold in 750 g spools costing around $30 each. Have tried cheap ones ($20 / kg), but results were noticeably inferior, not worth the savings.

BTW, my 0.1 BTC comment was obviously not for the Anycubic—you can currently buy 10 Anycubics for that amount! Maybe you missed a zero in your post above. The Anycubic Mega S should now be around 0.01 BTC. My comment was that, in 2021, 0.1 BTC should easily buy you an Ultimaker S5-class 3D printer.

No one is sure about reality of this because sometime losers also done tricks like these for some intention on social media.

Meanwhile, closing in on $23k again... I have a gut feeling this aint over yet...

Most chances now we will stay around this figure for some time may be until new year.

I'll support JimboToronto in this maybe it will help BTC rise...

OMG, yes. 0.01 BTC! I missed a zero
The Ultimaker will be on my shopping list for sure if i print at least 3 times a week over the course of a year or so.
Just printing an ipad stand from thingiverse, i can't stand it when my kids are literally letting their heads "hang" over the damn thing, when it's lying flat on a table or floor.
9 out of 10 times i design custom things, which is freaking easy using 3D Builder, but it has it's quirks when you're used to work, say with Auto Cad in 2D.
I wrapped my head around FreeSCAD and the likes, but it was too hard for me to get into, as a man with like half of a brain.

What's up with Bitcoin?
Should i look up some christmas cards? With Tux, this time?

You can count on institutional investors were watching at least one full market cycle, if not two.

PLA is really wonderful... natural... biodegradable, but it has it's limits.  You certainly can't do firearms with it.   I did this great set of replacement knobs for my grill. So nice... Prusa silver with a little orange flame glued on them.  I loved them.  They fit so tightly (she whispered).  Until you used the grill.  They take enough ambient heat that the would get mushy... lol.  So I had to use PETG.  And I only had a sort of translucent blue.  Oh well... it's kinda comical looking, but they don't melt.

I built a Prusa 3 with my daughter... it was a LOT of fun.  There are cheaper printers out there for sure... but the quality of that thing. The engineering.  It's a work of art.

It's OVER TWENTY THREE!!!!

Congrats  
The prusa's indeed have high reputation in the 3dp community.
I switched to the Anycubic only because of the price, which was below a prusa3 and the Ac still had a more sturdy looking frame, imho.
Personally, i knew some people that had multiple printers, and i think i know why.
One built his own, but he does things professionally (model kits) and had studied toolmaking and machine engineering, worked with multiple industry-grade machines of many kinds. That was a monster thing. I bought my first CNC from him. A total freak, of course
