Current ATH: $500

[Le Happy Merchant]

As of October the 27th, the new all time high is $500.



And nobody noticed.

Local bitcoins? Can we confirm that trades actually occurred at those levels? I'm not sure how that works, never used it.

[steelboy]

Not massively reliable. Theoretically you could make a sell offer at $1000000 per bitcoin then open another account and buy 0.0000001BTC for $1.

[somestranger]

This is a worthless figure.

[yuvadm]

Look at the top bar - it's a trade on localBTC

Of course someone could've traded locally at $500, even if that's a pretty hefty premium.

[TERA]

Its meaningless because localbtc is a bartering directory, not an exchange. There are no bids and asks that the price has to go through to reach a certain level. Anyone can trade with anyone else at any price at any time.

Seriously, there have been times where I'd pay $0.50 for 0.001 when I realize that last transaction fee put me slightly below what I need in my hot wallet and I don't want to break my paper wallet.

Also could just be people messing around. Nothing prevents me from creating 2 accounts and selling myself .001 BTC for $100 or whatever.

Can you explain this please? I didn't know you could break a paper wallet

Like breaking a 100 dollar bill..  To get into a paperwallet requires you to put the public address and private key into wallet software to make a transaction on the network.  Thus the paperwallets security has been comprimsed to use some of the BTC in it.

Oh, I get you. I thought you meant actually break it.
