Explanation

Bitcoin halving is going to start from 2024 according to experts. If the Bitcoin halving starts from 2024, then the price of Bitcoin will definitely touch two hundred thousand dollars..
 

You do not need to be an "expert" to attempt to calculate when the next bitcoin halvening is going to take place, and based on current progress in finding blocks, which is right around 1 block per every 10 minutes, the next halvening is likely going to be right around 1 year from now... .. which is merely just calculating out how many blocks are still needed to be mined before we get to 840,000 blocks (which is when the halvening takes place), and right, as I type this post, the miners are currently working on mining block 783638, since they just mined block 783637 8 minutes ago.. see the below caption..  

>>>>>>>
Latest Block:   783637  (8 minutes ago)
Current Pace:   101.8194%  (1430 / 1404.45 expected, 25.55 ahead)
Previous Difficulty:   43551722213590.37                            
Current Difficulty:   46843400286276.55                            
Next Difficulty:   between 47638465056257 and 47713203590655
Next Difficulty Change:   between +1.6973% and +1.8568%
Previous Retarget:   March 23, 2023 at 5:11 PM  (+7.5581%)
Next Retarget (earliest):   Thursday at 11:11 AM  (in 3d 23h 55m 17s)
Next Retarget (latest):   Thursday at 11:41 AM  (in 4d 0h 25m 43s)
Projected Epoch Length:   between 13d 17h 59m 46s and 13d 18h 30m 12s

so you could actually just calculate how many 10 minute chunks between the current block and the halvening block.

so we have had three halvenings so far, and this will be the fourth halvening.

Regarding your expectation of $200k bitcoin, by when are you expecting this, so that some of us might be able to plan accordingly?  

Do you expect it before the halvening or after the halvening, and then is that just a blow off top or a peak or will it be somewhat sustainable?

Have you already picked yourself up some bitcoin in anticipation of this, or are you still working on that part?

If you already have BTC, are you planning to sell some of it between here and $200k or are you just planning to continue to hold it, whether the price reaches $200k or more than $200k or not?  

Of course, your $200k number is pretty specific and BTC does not usually just move to any one price and then just stay there, but maybe this time is different?  What do you think?

Someone had said something about that "satoshi" post, but I did not see the actual post or the link, and I did not do a search.. so I guess I had missed it while it was still live.. ...

Someone make a April Fool and create a fake post and said "Satoshi" Come back on Bitcointalk  
Nice try.........  

Oh?   That makes sense. The merits might have thrown me off too..  even though maybe the first two merits that came from bumbacoin for 50 merits and sukamasoto for 30 merits should have had been clues that it was a fake screenshot... especially since I had never heard of those members, but I did not even really look very closely at trying to figure it out.  

Initially, I had thought that the forum might have activated satoshi's account for the mere purpose of the joke.. which does seem a bit much, but sometimes we seem to tolerate a lot of extremes in order to make April Fool's jokes.

Whoever toke the screenshot is a noob in Photoshop or whatever software they used. I don't think anyone was fooled because that was looking so fake. I would rather use inspect element on one of the satoshi's posts and edit everything if I wanted to do a such prank. That would look more realistic. I don't know if you use TryNinja's Telegram bot. He tried to fool everyone yesterday by giving fake Merit notifications by satoshi. Guess what, it didn't work properly due to the Telegram HTML error. Still, he got shahzadafzal.

Goddamit, did I really fk this up? Telegram's HTML parser didn't work for some reason.
It was supposed to look like this:



Next year's, maybe...

Hahaha still you got me there!
I had to go back and check my merit history, then I searched through my posts. And I didn't stop there - I even looked up Satoshi's last active date and his merit history.
So, overall, you won this one.
I'd rate it even higher than theymos's April prank, because that one was predictable, but this was a complete surprise.

Lookie uie-pooie.

Trying to create drama.



Are you too bored with the price movements of lillie fiend?

I mean we've got our selves a significant dip going on currently.. all the way down to touch $28k and even to dip a wee bit below $28k in the past hour..

What else do you want?  

Get yourself out of your newlie constructed windway and buy some of dee cornz!!!!!!  



That'll cheer you up.  Perhaps?


By the way, in the last couple of days, I added a few extra cornz buy orders.. just to be in the spirit of some folks who seemed to have had been pushing an April 1 BTC pumpening.. and I don't really believe in market buys, so I compromised within my lil selfie, and I did my part by adding a few extra BTC buy orders at price points (mostly between various price points starting at lower $28k and going down to about mid-$26ks..). 

Below the mid-$26ks, I already have my own regular and prescheduled BTC buy orders that are already in place.  I usually would not buy "on the way up" or in the "upper part of a seemingly consolidating price range".. but whatever.. I am feeling in the spirit.... since the price seems to have had been stuck here for a while and ..just for funzies.

ATEOTD... Anyone who actually gets fooled on April 1st, is a fool, and the kind of person the day was designed for, I suppose.
 I just like the chuckles regardless of whether I'm fooled or not, (usually not, if it's April 1st) especially for the effort of a creative prank.

Sometimes you won't be able to help yourself from such a moment, especially if you woke up in the morning and don't realize the date. Imagine you woke up in the morning and saw a notification that satoshi merited your posts  . It might give you a little heart attack. Maybe you know a Campaign manager Royse777?

Damn, bro! He got hundreds of users today. He created a Campaign with an insane pay rate, and we were fooled. LOL. He did everything to make us believe this is a real Campaign. You can check more from here if you want; https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5447104.0

Well, let me tell you my twisted logic behind falling for that weird-looking notification. See, if it was straightforward like that screenshot, I might have ignored it without a second thought. But the fact that it was all wonky and poorly formatted, that's what piqued my curiosity! And to top it off, it had Satoshi's name in it, which could only mean one thing - either someone had hacked into Satoshi's account or the merit system was being messed with! Of course, I knew it couldn't be Satoshi, but my mind was messing with all sorts of thoughts - what if someone was trying to get access to his account? Maybe that's why the notification was all messed up too!

I know, I know, I was probably overthinking it all, but hey, can you blame me for being curious?

So yes TryNinja you won 🏆

[Lainta]

Saudi Arabia, Russia, UAE, Iraq, Kuwait, Oman, and Algeria to cut oil production output until the end of 2023.


Saudi Arabia and OPEC+ producers have announced a cut to oil production by 1.6 million barrels per day starting in May to stabilize the market. The voluntary reductions are different from the earlier expected production cut of 2 million bpd. This move could impact gas prices in the US and the ongoing Ukraine and Russian war.

c'mon JJG..  you simply needed an excuse to merit your favorite and highly trusted farmer-bot "Lainta"  

We're buds (me and Lainta).

We go way back.

Sure, Lainta has issues...  and there were some other members in this forum (and also in this thread) who have issues, too.. some have worse issues than others... and surely there are some of us who are way the fuck better at backing up our points or at least attempting to back up the points that we make (if any) within our posts than others..

Oh.. and I just looked at Lainta's profile.. and yeah.. holy fuck, Lainta has a couple of negative trust write-ups.. so sure that is a potential problema for me to be buddying up too muchie with such a fellow (or government, or institution, or bot)..  - even though I do not send merits based upon whether a member has negative trust or  not.. even though it could influence me.. but I do attempt to judge if there might be some value in the post for me or potentially for others.. and yeah.. if the member ends up being a pretty fucking BIG dooshbag, then maybe I will stop sending merits to such member.. You know I merit some posts (and therefore members) that I really do not like very much.. but I still might value some of their contributions from time to time.. I cannot really be in a position of morally judging at too high of a level.. there are ONLY so many hours in the day.

and, I am not going to deny.. people come to differing judgements about what to do or how to spend their time and resources.. and so.. sure, there is a bit of a dilemma.. I won't deny.  

If I could delegate some of my merit sending abilities, I would.. at least in spurts, but theymos has not yet implemented such capabilities/features in the forum.. (maybe I should request to be able to get such abilities for my lil selfie  - like special treatment from theymos?... .. .hahahahahaha.. theymos if you are reading this post, consider my request for getting special abilities to delegate some of my merit sending abilities having had been made.. and could either you (or PowerGlove) get working on some software changes for such or maybe special treatment for yours truly?)... and currently, I cannot think of any reason to give my forum account password to any peep... even if I "like" such person.

That prick sounds desperate... but he has made these kinds of pleas in the past, and he has shown himself to be a liar .. an ongoing liar, even when he says something that might seem easy to accomplish.. such as I will be nicer.. I am going away.. blah blah blah.. a liar who cannot help himself from wanting to continue to receive attention and to be thought of as important.

And, it is too late anyhow.

I have considered him as a prick since I first heard him speak, and it is very difficult to listen to such an arrogant ass... so.. whatever amount of time it has been like maybe something like 7 years coming across various aspects of his content (directly or indirectly).. That trauma cannot be wiped from my own memory.. at least for this here cat.

Well, we didn’t make $30K by the end of March. We were close but I think the US government announcement about all their planned sales might have spooked the market a bit and held the price down. I’m not worried yet though. We are clearly still in an uptrend and getting closer to the halving every day. The name of the game is still dollar cost averaging.
