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

I wonder why this got deleted?

I guess we don't want to elicit elaborate stories about other coins' failures taking up valuable reading time.

Talking about reading, I stumbled upon this article: http://www.convexitymaven.com/images/Convexity_Maven_Wages_of_Fear.pdf

TL;DR -> money printing brrrr, good for Bitcoin 

I don't open pdf's, is it this?

Yes, it is (and thanks for providing the link)

Not the worst it seems. 

Wow man. Going through some of the posts in that thread makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up.
It makes me even a stronger believer in BTC than I ever was (If that was at possible).
Last post in that thread was from Karpeles!

[Krubster]

^ Epic thread indeed. That first post is hilarious.  

Last post in that thread was from Karpeles!

I'm not sure that's the Karpeles you are thinking of though. If it's Mark Karpeles of MtGox, this is his user -> MagicalTux.

Mark, if you're reading this, when can we expect to get our coins back? *cough*

Looking at today's charts, I'm asking myself, am I the only one who's in urgent need of a vacation?



In case you're wondering: it's going downhill on the right side

edit: I even forgot how to post images, so yes, urgent need for vacation...

Guys! Curious mind wants to know Do they have to pay taxes to the government from now on?

Yes you are completely right, I was on a shit reporting drive and mixed up your avatar with that other Bitvest participant Indymoney god dammit shame on me! Hope my publicly apologizing here (+per PM) is sufficient to you, it won't happen again!

...

out of merit, will do later.

it is a global crisis of a century. a natural disaster (well, scope-wise, not saying it did not escape from some lab) that affects all human beings on the planet. this virus is so contagious that every single human being on this planet will have to deal with it. you either get it because of infection or in form of a vaccine. the immune systems of all human beings must cope with it. no way around that. i know i rather wait for the vaccine. it is there, it just needs to get produced on scale and distributed.

in my opinion, without the internet, we would have all ran havoc by now. tech is saving us. (it is possible that tech also got us there, i dont know)

for bitcoiners it is very weird to see the world almost falling apart while bitcoin is getting so valuable. the whole world went in kind of forced hibernation. when covid winter is over, we will make it out of our caves. it will be beautiful to meet again. humankind will have a party. the little bonus for bitcoiners is the amount of financial independence they gained.

for some areas, like for example where i live, the darkest hours are yet to come. but the silver lining is clearly visible, and it is real.

we will pull through. this is the crisis, but we will make it. hodl bitcoin and stay healthy. the rewards are breathtaking.


edit: new ATH before February 14th. i take bets.

Could be tomorrow or Tue.
That said, there is a large increase in depression levels everywhere.
My coworkers (all working remotely) are reporting exhaustion.
This is what 10 mo of stress does to you. There is only this much adrenalin.
I am more concerned whether we basically going to normality only much later.
I already hear that we should still wear masks even AFTER getting vaccinated.
Well, maybe until most people are vaccinated as to not hurt their feelings of safety, but once >90% are done, f-k it, I would not wear a mask.
It would make no sense.

Agree, still masks would make sense for workers in animal farm buildings, and for people like me, who are catching almost every virus easily each winter.
This is the first winter since decades that i don't have caught a viral infection.
Now, i'm not a defender of mass-masking, to make that clear, but there are some developments in research, like nasal enzyme sprays that attack viruses at the entry to our body. I will use these in the future for sure, because i already suffered from years of post-viral-fatigue and that is something nobody ever wants to experience or even repeat.
What i hope for, at the very best for our global culture is that nations and cultures unite to stand as one against the next global crisis. This one is showing us the very weaknesses of society, health systems and economy. Party? YES! But we should evolve and be prepared, next time when whatever may come to threaten our lifes and values.


On the Bitcoin and crypto field, i hope the waves will even out a bit soon, there's obviously some heavy shorting and selling going on, and increased demand should break this. I can now sit back and watch the show, just buy the occasional dip if there will be free fiat on my account. Easy 

[Cryptotourist]

I hope you guys are not put off by the low volume or that we're going a little sideways up here.
On the 3 DAY chart, this is sooo first weeks of December 2020.

I'm thinking all hell is about to break loose.

Yes, what's going on?

It is annoying to you because you could not find a certain way to use them to stack Btc.

It's annoying because we're stuck in the middle with you.

You must be some kind of special moron philipma.
It's one thing telling us your portfolio - and another all together - shilling on the WO, day in - day out.

I get that.

I doubled down my shitcoin allocated BTC last month. This is the first time I mention this, and obviously the last.
Do you get that, or you're too much of a cunt?

I hate to say this but trying to ignore shitcoins is like wandering in the forest and pretending there are no trees.
Shitcoinery goes with the territory. No sense in getting annoyed about it.

Of course you would, but let's be clear.
It is philipma's constant manipulative shilling behavior/posts that is out of line in this thread.

BTW, there are no trees in the cryptoforest - it's just one tree surrounded by fungus - beneficial for both.

My dear friend and fellow BTC stacker.  Nice time you drive a car think about the people that paved the streets you drive it on.
Mining coin is the reason you post since no mining no coin thus no posting.
While you may think you 'got' it all with your large stacks of sats you were able to do so because guys like me do the heavy lifting.

I do not begrudge you or say your method of buy and hold is wrong.
I simply tell you there would be nothing to buy and hold without people like me mining the coin you buy.

Mining is the working mans way of stacking sats. I like to mine. I stack sats of BTC.

IT IS THE ONLY LONG TERM COIN FOR ME.

Tesla just confirmed a $1.5 billion purchase, Jesus Christ. Want to accept BTC for their products too

https://ir.tesla.com/_flysystem/s3/sec/000156459021004599/tsla-10k_20201231-gen.pdf

Here it is: "In January 2021, we updated our investment policy to provide us with more flexibility to further diversify and maximize returns on our cash that is not required to maintain adequate operating liquidity. As part of the policy, we may invest a portion of such cash in certain specified alternative reserve assets. Thereafter, we invested an aggregate $1.50 billion in bitcoin under this policy. Moreover, we expect to begin accepting bitcoin as a form of payment for our products in the near future, subject to applicable laws and initially on a limited basis, which we may or may not liquidate upon receipt. We believe our bitcoin holdings are highly liquid. However, digital assets may be subject to volatile market prices, which may be unfavorable at the time when we want or need to liquidate them. "
