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

[modrobert]

Viewing the cosmos,
Through the lens of a WOer.
A breathtaking sight!

Trump shot, Bitcoin pumped.
A bad cause, a great effect.
Ross soon free and rich!

So predictable.
Dimon changes tune. Fink too.
Schiff and Buffett next.

Wright forced to admit,
He is not Nakamoto.
Serves his ego right!

ChartBuddy stairway.
Right direction, wrong color.
Red leading to green!

Ready the chopper,
And prepare for the spaceship.
Eugene's Limit crushed!

Hold on to your keys.
We're almost there, my brothers.
The fun starts next year!

Good one!

The gox coins haven't reached the creditors yet, so wouldn't ready the chopper just yet, but "The fun starts next year!" seems like a reasonable prediction.

I thought BitcoinTalk was Tor-friendly, no?

Sometimes CloudFlare is not Tor friendly, that's what bitcointalk[.]org uses.

[psycodad]

OK, so I had to log-in via Tor for reasons...

Just wanted to merit Hueristic's rusty pipe post and catch up.

I still cannot believe the number of bicycles, motorcycles, buses, traffic lights and fire hydrants I had to click...

Managed it in the end.

FFS!

Interesting.
FWIW I use exclusively tor to access bct and the only thing I occasionally have to do is to check a box with "I am human".
Never had to solve any captchas (yet), though I am logged in since the times before I switched to tor (way more than a year).

Yes, I can confirm that. In many sites I visit, a few minutes of inactivity is enough to trigger their human detection algorithms...

I guess it was a poor Tor circuit that caused it. It wouldn't even let me preview my post. Now all seem functional and stable. In fact, BitcoinTalk is one of the best sites to view via Tor, because of the SMF engine being so light. Not much bandwidth needed to use the forum.

Combine it with magnified browser viewing and Dark Reader, and it rivals many of the more modern forum engines out there in both looks and usability. I know Dark Reader can be a security risk, but it's open-source which is a huge plus, and a life-saver for the eyes.

Today I ordered this full extras Mercedes-AMG GLC 43 4MATIC Coupe 2024. I'll have to wait 6 months to get it, though. The good thing is that by then Bitcoin price will be much higher and the lease payments besides my salary part, will cost me less in terms of my stash. My realistic hopes are for the price to be such that it will be below 4% of my stash. I still can't believe how my desicions to start accumulating and hodling in 2016-2017 are bringing me such change and joy now. New town, new home, new job, new car and with the crossing of 100K possibly even a big house and a villa. Besides, I have a fulfilling lifestyle in a town with many culture events, restaurants and hospitals. I'm very happy!

Congrats.

I must say, the more I have (in dirty fiat) and BTC stash (which I've only added to since 2017),
the more guilty I feel for spending anything.  
I've had a tab open on a Porsche for months on my phone. The dealer still has it but I will probably not buy it.
I don't really need it I guess.

I was at the seaside (in the east of the UK - the only place where it seemed to be really good weather) on Saturday with my squeeze.
Spent £10 on parking, and £12 on donuts and drinks.

When I had less (almost no savings, and no BTC) I never felt guilty spending anything.

They say that happiness correlates with income, BUT only to a certain level, which in US is/was, apparently, $94K/year.
Another recent study disputes that and suggests that happiness continues to increase even afterwards..at least to a few mil.

Do I think that Zuck (with his tens of billions) is MORE happy than an average guy with $100mil?...I don't think so.
Personally, i think that somewhere at $30-100 mil (UHNW), happiness probably reaches a plateau probably because even with 2% spend/year (50% less than considered "safe"), you have a "budget" of 600K-2mil/year, which allows for everything, but the most outrageous spend patterns:at $2mil, you can buy another stupendous villa in cash every other year, lol.

You're too gay for your opinion about Republicans to matter.

Everyone's opinion matters, regardless of their sexual orientation. It's important to engage in discussions based on the merits of the arguments rather than personal attacks. Let's focus on the issues and have a respectful conversation.

Fair enough.  The sarcasm wasn't obvious enough, I guess.

Really?
But chipsets for these gens are made by Intel too. Where else could a "hardware issue" (or even software issue) lead to instabilities, when it reportedly is not the case with older CPU generations? Could intel just be salvaging here, because they found out the 13/14th gen mobile CPU problems can be addressed using software and/or hardware "changes" of manufacturers?
Sounds pretty fishy to this here cat

$94K by Friday.

 

Actually (probably not now… but never know) still this is the candle or something similar I really hope for

Just an crazy green dildo to melt some faces

Both Trump and Biden are doddering old fools.

At least Biden was smart enough to realize it. Trump is too stupid to figure it out.

I highly doubt it was Biden's decision to drop out.

Barack Obama, the sponsors , George Clooney and Soros pushed him for sure.

Definitely:

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/rcna162930

Isolated, frustrated and angry, he felt betrayed by allies who turned on him in his hour of need.

“He’s really pissed off,” said a person in touch with Biden’s inner circle.
