I thought it was
you who invented it... but at least you liked it enough to keep spreading it.
@cAPSLOCK Bart, hmm, it's from back when BitMEX was number one. I did see it here first, but it doesn't mean much of course, since here is my first source anyway.
(Some keen WO searcher might be of help for such important matters. Hm, this could be worth a shot.)There's a lot of symbiotic dynamics in the bitcoin space, and I am not even sure how much source matters... Sometimes I will see some of my ideas in some other space, but then I might start to question from where I originally got the idea... it was not just out of the blue.. I got the idea from somewhere.
Sometimes an idea is repeated so much, too.. and then it may just become part of the public space - and I am not even saying that origins to do not matter.. Of course, some of the better ideas will be taken, and maybe there can be some pride in repetition of some of those stronger ideas.. that also may well fade away if one of us uses a common expression that is so 2017.. because we say it like this now. or that idea is not as widely accepted anymore... or maybe from time to time, some truth can come out by reviving an older expression.
@JJG I heard that those who invented "pump for ants" and "bart/debart" are shitcoiners in disguise and are here to destroy the WO. I wonder, who are they? If we only knew, they could be properly instructed and batslapped... O:-)
Shitcoiners do sometimes take some of the bitcoin expressions, and maybe even mislead with those expressions, and I am sure that bitcoiners have likely taken (or were inspired) by some expressions that they might have seen used a lot in shitcoin space.... - even I am guilty of the same.... remember flippening, and chashening and litening... and there were others that inspired a kind of "-enening" of all the things. I personally believe that we do have quite a bit of consensus around at least minimizing shitcoin discussions in this thread, and even if there has been some attempts to do that with the rona, I doubt that we have as much consensus - even if some guys have chosen to take that to another thread, and even if there sometimes is going to be questions regarding how much some angles of that issue can be related to bitcoin or bitcoin fixing it or whatever bitcoin related matters we talk about in this thread besides the walls. It's not like we have that much must post right now excitement going on within bitcoin price dynamics.
Regarding BTC price, I did have some revelations come to me the other day while I was away from my keyboard (believe it or not, that does happen), and I am not really sure how well I can flesh them out in the seemingly clairvoyant direction that I felt at that time.... and one aspect is a need for our consolidation to break at some point, and have we spent enough time in this 35% to 41% correction range. Sure, some HODLers are getting quite dispirited, but will a sufficient number of them loosen up their grip on their coins to justify keeping the price in these here parts?
Another thing is that in
my 12/16 renditions, I had already given pretty decent odds to both my categories of $120k to $220k and my category of $220k to $450k for the anticipated top for this cycle, yet my effervescent feeling of clairvoyance from the other day honed in upon $200k to $260k for the top for this cycle
(which surely would seem kind of bearish for some peeps and kind of bullish for other peeps), which overlaps those two ranges, and I am not even sure if I need to attempt to revise my assignment of probabilities.. has the last month really changed dynamics in any kind of meaningful way? Maybe there is a need to wait for some more important happening besides a passing feeling?
I do admit that based on developments of the past month, I should probably flesh out some of my down probabilities a wee bit moar better - but who likes to place too much contemplation into down, especially while we are in a bull market,
right? right?
riiiiiiiiiiigggggggggghhhhttt?Even the cointelegraph article is not really clear what the bitcoin-related plan is regarding crypto payments for international settlements.. and surely whether customers might be able to hold some of their value in bitcoin, or is it just a vehicle in which the bank can save on fees or get around some of the ways that Iran has been frozen out of the swift system.
There is a quote in there about the government being hostile to bitcoin miners in the recent past... so I suppose it may take a bit of time to see how it plays out and what their mix of bitcoin versus various shitcoins might be in terms of what banks end up actually putting in place... but it does make some sense in terms of some goals that the country might have in terms of being less vulnerable to being locked out of swift systems.
