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

My market comment in haiku:

bitcoin trends change too
often to mean anything;
singularity?

# Sunday "confused" haiku

EDIT: a second version (a variation on the topic):

bitcoin's up then down
singularity, he cried;
nobody listened

something big happened
seemed to go unnoticed though
some REAL 'clarity'

Oh, we noticed, but the market is skeptical because what was given could be just as easily be taken away in 3.5 years IF there is no law and just an agency guidance.
Gensler had lots of those.

Looking good.

@cAPSLOCK: That link is interesting!

I've got to pack for my spring trip to Weaverville, NC to check on my mountain condo near the BRP, then on to The Villages in Florida to visit relatives and my plan to take in 'Rocky and the Rollers' headlining down there at Rocky Fest next Saturday - I've always been a fan of their live sound. It’s a rare thing to find a touring act that actually understands the 'physics' of a clean mix and the soul of a vintage signal chain.  

Would you guys please pump BTC up while I'm gone - maybe helping the Clarity Act to get passed. I'll take my iPad with me to keep an eye on things!

The 'MSBT' Monster: Morgan Stanley just filed a major update for its own Bitcoin ETF (ticker: MSBT). Analysts are calling this a "$160 billion bet," as the bank prepares to offer direct Bitcoin exposure to its $8 trillion wealth management platform.

Strategy reportedly bought more BTC recently. Seems the 'big money' isn't running away - they are using the recent fear to accumulate more.

Og would never lie
Four year cycles never die
Almost time to buy

Let doubt fade away
August brings a brighter day
Bottom coming soon

Og is one syllable. It is what everyone has called me since I was a kid. It has never meant O.G.

I always assumed it to be the case...somehow (as people don't usually call themselves OGs in the bitcoin sense).

I would quibble with calling an ETF direct bitcoin exposure, but you know that by now. By the way, I hope you enjoy your various trips you're taking.
