If I were a famous multi-billionaire, I would charge 1 million US$ to donate an "undisclosed sum" (actually 1 US$) to any interested startup.  |

I've thought over my trading history and realize 80%-90% if my profits are all made during new-ATH rallies and the huge crashes afterwards. I perform very poorly during bear markets and consolidations, and make bank during the rally/crash conditions, doubling my coins exponentially every week. So I should probably just make a resolution to only trade during those short 2-3 month time periods and then leave whenever there is a bear market. Maybe I use the 1W MACD to determine this.
Of course you do. Any mug can make gains when liquidity is pouring into the market. In a bear market when liquidity is being drained from the market, only those ballsy and disciplined enough to sell and buy the utmost extremities of the trend line will make money, other than that the odds are stacked against you and you are just whale fodder. I made most of my gains from Nov 20th onwards up until mid Dec (I sold high and got very lucky with buy-ins at near base of Dec 5th crash). Since then profits have been low and my recent max leveraged short trade that I opted to finally hold out on, got absolutely fkn slaughtered by the time I tapped out which takes me firmly into net loss territory since 2014. Lesson learned. Same lesson as is occurring in your head and the same lesson that countless others have been taught. Don't trade a blatant bear market. The result of this is more and more liquidity leaves Bitcoin until the point where the splashes made by greedy whales become less and less pronounced due to less and less liquidity reacting to them. No ultimate bottoming out of any market entailed a 45% swing from bottom within a few days, not even a past Bitcoin bottom. Have also noticed that Bitstamp are becoming tighter and tighter with allowing deposits to register in peoples accounts. I sent over just $3K the other day and again, they are wanting me to 'prove' where I am getting it from. I told them to fuck off. I am getting my money back, I can't see how I am going to get any amount of money back onto that exchanges cos no way am I giving them any personal details of the description that they are asking for. Bet there are quite as lot of Bitcoiners who are feeling the same. Not exactly conducive to increased adoption is it? They asked you for 'proof', or they asked they asked you to make a simple statement on a KYC form? Nope. They wanted documentary evidence.....so I told them to shove it and I am getting my money back. |

This is the price to be paid for an exchange that is less likely to be shuttered. Why not use LBC or BTC-e?

I agree. But the general infrastructure is robust: excessive measures by any single exchange hurt that exchange more than anything, and therefore the competition keeps them at check.
My "permabullness" has lasted for exactly 50 days now. Before that I was a bear for 97 days, almost twice as long!
Problem is that Bitstamp are the only large exchange that I don't think are operating a fractional reserve Bitcoin operation. Bitstamp has always required 3 confirmations before any BTC transaction is verified. Both Bitfinex and BTC-E have credited transactions before a single confirmation in the block chain. I say it is likely that both have been hacked and robbed. The $100 flash crash on both these exchanges is certainly an indication that something very amiss has affected them both. In short, I trust Bitstamp as a safe place to have funds lying around but think everywhere else is dodgy as fuck. |
