the Saturday morning wall report


bitcoin consolidating near $19.1kish this morning as the market absorbs last weeks volatility

I think the bears continue assaulting legacy markets into next week as this trend change plays out

bulls have their hands full defending this $19kish support zone...moving above $19.6k opens the road to the 50 day MA resistance level @ $21,134.01   losing $19kish leads towards that yearly low of $17.6kish support

There may be some folks who believe that there is an "us" that is willing (or able) to be "driven towards green energy," but I am thinking that you are getting your language wrong here.. because the incentives built into bitcoin gives no ratts' asses whether energy is green or not... There are incentives that the energy be less expensive; however, the extent to which any mining operation is going to be operating at "optimal efficiencies" will depend upon a variety of factors - which (the last time I checked) continue to be decentralized to the extent that individuals, mining institutions (and surely pools too) are considering a variety of factors in regards to when, where and how to conduct their mining operations and "green" aspects may well be discretionary - depending on a variety of factors.

I am not proclaiming that you are completely wrong.. but your suggestion that "green" has to be a priority based on current happenings seems to misdescribe what might be dogs and what might be tails - even though they are both present on the same animal.
Not sure we are talking about the same incentives. Mining with cheaper, green energy instead of dirty, more expensive energy : Which is better?

Yes.  Maybe we are not talking about the same incentives?  I already mentioned that bitcoin is designed in such a way that likely incentivizes the production of energy and also very mobile ways to seek the cheapest costs for energy, and sure there may be various trade offs, but the free market in bitcoin has a lot of already built-in incentives that likely push it towards efficient uses of energy - whether green or not might involve some political questions regarding definitions - and I doubt that there is any kind of reasonable and logical basis for having so much negative attention on bitcoin and to be suggesting that it is not using energy responsibly.. and seems like a BIG ass distraction to me including that the lame ass arguments regarding bitcoin using too much energy are coming from folks who either 1) hardly have any clue about what bitcoin is, and/or 2) want to control how energy is used in order to attack bitcoin.

There are other factors regarding energy besides expense and whether it is green or not.. but also whether it is reliable and whether it is contributing to society more than it is hurting society.  Those folks trying to get into figuring out micromanagement aspects regarding what kind of energy bitcoin is using are just making shit up because they are against bitcoin and they do not believe bitcoin is valuable.. so you might even be needing a bat slappening to be making those energy sourcing arguments here..... because on the grid level there are various incentives that can be made regarding how to produce energy and you expect bitcoiners need to become energy source experts besides realizing that it surely is much greener to wash our clothes by hand and to hang them out to dry rather than to use electricity, and it is also greener to not have christmas lights rather than to have them.   .. so let's get rid of the christmas lights, they are adding way less value to society than bitcoin and they cost more money (energy) to society too.  Do we need to go down those micromanagement roads.. as you seem to want to do?

Economically and ethically obviously the clean energy miners. I already gave you the source on green energy production costing less than outdated energy production.

You want to me to go back and look?  You are saying that you want to control how miners are using energy and where they can locate based on "green" considerations rather than being able to go and to mine wherever they want based on their own assessments of energy costs that they might get off the grid or they might figure out ways to source there own energy.. so it seems better to me to let them do what they are going to do and the green issue is a sourcing issue and not a consumption issue... but yeah.. we have a shortage of energy, right?  A purposefully imposed shortage of energy, no?  That causes emergencies no?  We need to micromanage how people use energy, right?

At some point, people will start realizing that they can get the same electricity but at lower costs.

Have you calculated all the costs for all locations and for all people based on what resources they have in each area?  Do you think that bitcoin miners are not seeking lower costs already?

Thats when big oil starts dying and their lobbyist buddies no longer have incentives to screw everyone over by polluting our living-environment and bodies. I guess some people just enjoy their fish pre-oiled before cooking. Roll Eyes Guten Apetite.  Kiss

Big oil made our lives worse, and we gotta get rid of them?  What about nuclear?  Those guys too?  How is europe going to heat itself this winter?  Don't they need oil and maybe other forms of energy?  Do they have infrastructure in place for "green sources?"  Are the green sources reliable to be able to get rid of other sources?  should we get rid of oil before the infrastructure is built out for the various "green sources?"  Maybe if we cut back consumption?  What do you think we might cut?  Maybe we can wear sweaters in the winter and take off some clothes in the summer?  And maybe we don't really need to mine bitcoin?  What is bitcoin good for, anyhow?  It surely is not needed, even though others are making those choices and the bitcoin miners are not even really any kind of meaningful burden on the grids... sure there might be some local examples in which bitcoin miners have raised energy costs in some regions, right?  Is that because they were seeking less expensive energy, so the prices went up when the bitcoin miners arrived?

Aren't you presuming too much, goldkingcoiner?  Where do you get the idea that "Green" energy is always cheaper?  Might the cost of energy and the advantages and disadvantages of each energy type differ based on location, and sometimes there could be some justifications to operate some kinds of energy at a loss in order to fund research or the development of future energy-related technologies.. and surely bitcoin has a lot of various ways in which energy can be consumed that had not been previously practical. so I am not really disagreeing with the ideas about the need to analyze generation, transmission and distribution.. . .and it seems that we also have concerns about how energy is consumed too.. especially when it comes to certain kinds of consumption that is deemed to be "less important" by some segments of the population.. so surely generation, transmission and distribution are supply side factors and some concerns about consumption has recently been part of what is being considered in the recent formulas too... and also who consumes the energy.. there seem to be some protectionism regarding who can consume what kinds of energy too, no?  and bitcoin is part of the idea.. but "we" don't want poor people to be consuming energy, right?  They might get richer by figuring out how to consume energy in ways to benefit their situations rather than contributing to the ability of others to be able to consume.  I am not claiming to know the answer.. but it seems that arguments are being convoluted and maybe it is not always on purpose... even though sometimes it seems that the convolution is happening on purpose.. and it is not just on one side of the political spectrum, either
I linked the source. But I guess if you live in the Arctic, it would be hard to generate electricity with sunlight or wind. Huh I guess you are half-right. But a few more decades of global warming and we won't have to worry about that. We will be too busy treating daily heatstroke.

Wind and solar is the solution to our world wide energy issues?  There's gotta be some other sources than that, no?  It cost money/energy for those solar panels to make them, doesn't it?  Do we need batteries too?  Are all our cars going to contain batteries?  Is that going to be reliable?  Do you think we should just completely get rid of all the gas powered cars?  How about airplanes and ships?  Should we get rid of airplanes and ships too?  You got this all figured out? Big oil bad, Green good? and you know which is good and which not good, right?

Big oil is the bad guy?  I have difficulties with this presumption. 
Your difficulties have been noted and will be taken seriously.

You are not going to take my "difficulties" seriously, and maybe my difficulties do not matter because I am just some random peep on the interwebs?  You know which way we should be going in society, and to attempt to relate this back to bitcoin mining,  you believe that it is important to try to make sure that bitcoin miners are sufficiently green because there is some kind of consumption responsibility that each of us have, even if decentralized.. we need to have green aspiring obligations... and oil is not green and cannot be green and needs to be squashed into oblivion because the world is going to be able to sufficiently and adequately run and prosper through wind and solar and maybe a few other green ways that you have not yet mentioned (geothermal, hydro and maybe some other non-specified ways?)  Things will be fine... oh yeah, global warming too... making the bitcoin miners more green is going to reduce global warming, too.  It's for the children, too.

I understand various arguments regarding privatizing the gains and socializing the losses, so I would agree that companies should not be socializing some of their expenses (which would include costs to the environment that sometimes need to be sufficiently and adequately considered).. I am also not inclined to privatize everything, so there is a role for government and also a role to protect various public interests when it comes to energy production and also energy availability, yet I have difficulties considering that the energy companies are always the bad guys.. because there are some needs for allowing for the production and finding of resources and the various supply-side factors that you mentioned.
Big Oil is running on marketing only, at this point. People are either too afraid or too greedy to give our old energy production system up for a better system.

Oh? That's the issue?  Our failure to give up on our dependency on BIG oil is contributing to our inability to sufficiently and adequately transition to more greener energy sources?  Oh? that's how this matter is playing out?

Like people who cannot give fiat up even though it is obviously becoming redundant. We call those people nocoiners.

Climate change deniers are the nocoiners of science.

You seem to be mixing up your ideas, and creating false equivalencies.

Maybe you should 'splain ur lil selfie regarding what you are proposing when it comes to bitcoin miners?  What kinds of impositions do they need to have in order to contribute to "science" and the "greener" ways forward?  Do we need to verify their ways of using energy or what is it that you are suggesting in relation to the topic(s) of this thread?  I think that my point has been that a lot of the green bullshit talk have been attack vectors on bitcoin.. and the creation of a lot of false dialogues and dichotomies, but you seem to believe that they green topic is relevant to this thread (and bitcoin) somehow even though from my perspective the green ideas seem to be causing unnecessary impositions (aka ways to attack bitcoin and bitcoiners)

2021 was particularly wimpy for the last bull year of the cycle.
A possible explanation: market started anticipating a rapid tightening by the Fed.
Notably, all large tech turned down almost at the same time despite high profits.

I think COVID & the massive fall out from that across the world had a part to play there. Also the China perma ban was really bad, right in the middle of peak bull market. I firmly believe both COVID & China stopped us seeing north of $120,000.

Could mean we get an extra high blow off top in 2025. Kind of like a delayed ignition!

If we remain unbiased, what's the most rational probability that we already have the bottom on BTC ?

Based on :

- We are only at 10% (down) from the actual bottom (17.6K$)
- Didn't see any REAL and CONVINCED bounce since 69K ATH (no Jayjay... quick bounce at 25K$ for such small time, i dont call this a bounce).Just need to unscroll  the chart and it's looks so obv.
- I know some here are not agree on it regarding the macro situation, but please.. the probability we have the bottom on the SPX, NASDAQ or other are very low right now. If we go -10% - 20% (mean the SP500 at 3000), so most probably even more down on the Nasdaq100..

What's happen on BTC ?  We should be virgin to think BTC will hold 17.6K on these very probable situation (and usually more downward on BTC).

It's clearly not a thing I want to see (except of keeping buying every 1K$ down on BTC from 15Kish), but we really should be prepare to this situation and maybe see temporarily 10K$ (or less?) if these levels happen on SPX and cie.

Based on that I see less than 10% we have the bottom on BTC now.

I don't think that you can reliably predict what is going to happen.
Why? Because many factors are in play.
If FED causes ANOTHER 15-30% decline in the stock market by their whim (arbitrarily), Wall Street would get very mad at them (like this, but 10 times louder: https://twitter.com/i/status/1573387150338433025) as the the whole calamity would be caused by their wrong policies.
Additionally, if the world moves toward a large scale conflict, expect interest rates to be fixed at some low level , like they were in WW2 (it was 3/8% then or about 0.375%) and that would mean "printing".
The rising interest rates is a 'fake", unsustainable move, imho.

I didn't say i can predict, I'm just trying to find a direction with impartiality, regarding the actual global situation. It's not only about BTC.
I didn't say that the FED can maintain this for long time, but still for some months (and continue to increase the interest rates till 4? 4.5? 5?). Even on the best case of 4, there is still time for another drop. And reasonably, probability are much more higher that BTC will drop much lower if Stocks continue to fall even for "only" 10 or 20%. It's correlated, that's a fact, until now.

Here is one possibility..say, October inflation readings are low (due to a large drop in the price of oil).
Suddenly, market would switch to a "bullish" 50 points (0.5%) rate hike and bear market would be essentially over.
Could it happen? maybe..i give this scenario a 30% chance.

Suddenly, market would switch to a "bullish" 50 points (0.5%) rate hike and bear market would be essentially over.
Could it happen? maybe..i give this scenario a 30% chance.

Agree we can have a "good" news on that, but it's still not right now.. still some weeks or month to see. And still not a huge probability. And you can still add on it the UA/RU war ; China/taiwan (ok still nothing for now, but who knows?), and potential big mess for energies before winter time... I repeat, it's not what I want to see, but above the FED rates, there are many things around still VERY negative.

Want a $1 Million Job in Crypto? How About Chief Metaverse Officer - They Are all the Rage
Metaverse technology has continued to be the rage among big-name brands that are now dolling out million-dollar paychecks to so-called "chief metaverse officers" to think up their metaverse adoption strategy.

According to a Bloomberg report, brands such as Disney, Proctor and Gamble (P&G), LVMH, Creative Artists Agency (CAA), Spanish telecom carrier Telefonica SA, and wedding-registry retailer Crate & Barrel are among giants that have invested in a CMO of recent.

These firms, while each having modified job descriptions for their CMO, are all making the appointment with a view not to be left behind in the adoption of the emerging technology. Hamza Khan, the co-lead of metaverse efforts at management and consulting firm McKinsey & Co.

McKinsey estimates that annual global spending related to the virtual world could reach as much as $5 trillion by 2030. Analysis by Gartner Inc. supports the position that the metaverse is the next big innovation with its forecast that one in four people will spend at least an hour a day in the metaverse within a few years.

Despite the "digital FOMO" trend, companies are still treading cautiously in their metaverse adoption as the sector is yet to prove itself to be a big earner. Bloomberg found that it is presently not uncommon to see newly named chief metaverse officers having additional responsibilities in order not to constrain company resources, although their paychecks still run into millions in some cases.

Horey Sheit!!!! 

Are you lost? 

Is the word bitcoin in your post at any location? Have you heard of bitcoin, Rehan Zakir?  Do you know what is bitcoin?

Performance of a few major indices since the COVID bottom.
Bitcoin:  +201%
Commodities: +86%
Nasdaq: +62%
Russell 3000: +60%
Gold: +7%
High Yield Bonds: +4%
Long Duration Bonds: -33%

Source.

The supposed appreciation number for bitcoin does not seem to be anywhere in the ball park of correct (except directionally), because if you are looking at the actual bitcoin bottom in March 2020, then that bottom price would have been $3,850, and today's bitcoin price is right around $19k.  So I calculate that to be around 494%.. which is nearly 5x.. rather than 2x.

So bottom must not really mean bottom.  Bottom means something else, right?

Another way to calculate would be to say that there are $15,150 in profits (which is $19,000 - $3850) then divide that $15,150 by $3,850 to get 394% in profits, but even if we get a lower number to count profits as a percentage of the initial base amount rather than appreciation of the base amount, that still does not get us down to the seemingly lowballing 201% that is described as a NOT bottom..

If we remain unbiased, what's the most rational probability that we already have the bottom on BTC ?

Based on :

- We are only at 10% (down) from the actual bottom (17.6K$)
- Didn't see any REAL and CONVINCED bounce since 69K ATH (no Jayjay... quick bounce at 25K$ for such small time, i dont call this a bounce).

You are looney to be attempting to pre-empt me by trying to act as if you know what I am going to say and then attribute some kind of bullshit lame strawman argument to me, when I have not been saying anything even close to that.

Just because you get so excited in your desires to puke up lame bear arguments - should not amount to my making overly bullish (hopium-based) arguments, because even if you may well be more bearish inclined (and possibly more "realistic") than me, that still does not even come close to suggesting that I would have been making any kinds of arguments to suggest that we have had much if any bounce since we hit $17,593 in mid-June.

I am not really claiming to know much if anything beyond having my hunches, similar to other folks here - yet there were several times in the past few months that I had been suggesting that we likely were going to need to get back above the 100-week moving average before I would start to feel comfortable that the "bottom was in" which has been between $35k and $37.5k... and since we had been hovering down below the 200-week moving average so long, surely I have been thrown off by our having had gone so low for so long coupled with several other real world factors that have down drawing effects on BTC prices, including but not limited to some of the overly leveraging purges going on, the froth in the shitcoin space (including but not limited to Ethereum merge nonsense and NFT crappola), macro factors that relate to purposeful efforts to reign in investment (consumption) froth (and inflation), and perhaps some other factors that I am not currently thinking about.

Just need to unscroll  the chart and it's looks so obv.

Call me a waffler, but I have never in my life seen a chart that seems obvious regarding where we are going, even though they have tendencies to show us fairly clearly where we have been.  hahahaha.. the future is yet uncharted, even if it appears "obvious" according to uie-pooie and other sorcerer wannabes.

- I know some here are not agree on it regarding the macro situation, but please.. the probability we have the bottom on the SPX, NASDAQ or other are very low right now. If we go -10% - 20% (mean the SP500 at 3000), so most probably even more down on the Nasdaq100..

What's happen on BTC ?  We should be virgin to think BTC will hold 17.6K on these very probable situation (and usually more downward on BTC).

It might go below $17.6k and it might not.  If it does go below $17.6k BTC, then after the fact, it will look fairly obvious that it was going to go below such price point.  But right now, before it actually goes below such price point, it is not obvious whether it will go below such price point or not, and that is part of the reason why the future is not certain and we cannot put 100% on black.   Tongue Tongue Tongue

 Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

It's clearly not a thing I want to see (except of keeping buying every 1K$ down on BTC from 15Kish),

Whoaza!!!!  You are waiting until $15k and lower to start buying?  Horey sheit!!!!

Hopefully, you have not neglected in pee paring ur lil selfie for UPpity too? 

You should recall one of the basic tenets in dealing with my lil precious (aka King Daddy, aka honey badger.. and other cute and endearing lil names, too) is that you better not presume too much, which means making sure that uie-pooie are adequately and sufficiently prepared for UP too.. not just preparing for down.. otherwise, you might get ur lil selfie a BIG wee widdow surprise and fewer cornz in the present, even if you thought that you could see the future before it had happened to happen.
 

but we really should be prepare to this situation and maybe see temporarily 10K$ (or less?) if these levels happen on SPX and cie.

What odds are we giving such $10k or below?  You realize that the level of our preparation should be apportioned to the level of odds that we are giving to such scenarios.. and so that preparation should be both financial and psychological... and how high we going to go with such preparations?  Sounds like you are giving such scenarios pretty high odds, especially since you found it to be so important to elaborate on such ideas that you consider to be reasonably within the realm of possibilities.
 
Based on that I see less than 10% we have the bottom on BTC now.

Another wow.. you are saying that you consider 90%-ish odds that the bottom is not in.. so maybe you are even inclined to short since you are so confident.. and maybe you would like to place some kind of a wager on your odds..   i am probably around 50/50 for breaking below $17,593, but if you want to bet on something like $15k being reached, it seems that you are giving something more than 50% on $15k being reached, and that might actually be bettable from my perspective.. and of course working out the terms would not be easy.. because many times guys will spout out similar kinds of nonsense like you and assign stupidly high odds to certain kinds of bearish scenarios that they say, but they will be no where to be found when it comes time to actually placing some kind of value or even to put reputation on the line in regards to making some kind of bet that includes such odds that they have actually assigned to the supposedly soothsayer bearish scenario(s) that they will not back up.

It's what you said weeks ago regarding this 25K bounce. I am just saying we have not the same definition of "bounce" when you unscroll the chart from the 69K .. there is no convinced bounce at all since.

I already told you, I started to buy BTC early 2015 at the 200$ish, never sold any BTC before 50K.

I started to buy again when we hit again 20K$ in june. And I was very surprised, like most of us I think, to see no reaction on BTC, no bounce, nothing.

So yep, I put new order to accumulate many more BTC from 15Kish, every 1K down, same order (double order size from the 10K and less).

I don't know the probability to go under 10K$, probably not 50% but more than 10% IMO.

If you want to avoid the macro situation, it's your choice. I just said it's look like a utopia to think that BTC will hold at 50%+ probability this bottom if we continue to drop on the stock market indices. I am a BTC Believer but still connected to the reality.
