Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Record??

I think they're trying to force an inverse H&S

You sure about that?  The bid is there on this breakout of the down trendline.  I'd close the short if I were you.  Too bullish.

Shorts were selling like crazy into 1000 BTC bid @ 572, then it all looked good, then another 1800+ bid came to push it above the trendline.

I'd put a short stop at 585 if you are still short.

Lower highs every week since new year.
In 2011 some weeks spiked up although the monthly trend was down.

Someone is definitely trying to push price up above $580 resistance.

Another 3000K BTC chip placed into bid wall just below spot Probably on Bitfinex and being routed through stamp. Am Watching a flurry of smaller bids 'panic buy' below it.

I will believe $580 being broken through when I see it, and if the trader placing that 3K playing chip just below spot really wants Bitcoins at this price range, then Bitcoin must surely break out through $580 soon.

More likely than not, he just wants Bitcoins price to rise (perhaps yet more Bitfinex short stop loss farming), other than actually having to fork out his 3 Million USD himself in order to make it rise, leaving him in danger of becoming one great big huge bag holder if the market just doesn't buy it. in the end.

Treacherous times right now for smaller fish.

If I wasn't already short, I would be keeping the fuck away from this market right now....won't be going long either, even if $580 is broken through.....all about manipulation right now and I don't know the manipulators end game.

I wished they did, and I wish they just dumped them straight into that 3K BTC cocksuckers bid wall.

It is fake, in that he has no intentions of it being triggered and picking up 3K BTC at $580, but he is trying to push up Bitcoin to meet the 4Hr PSAR, at which point much of the bot trading and human traders alike, will switch from net sell to net long mode. Every chance that he is sitting with 3 Million USD of liquidity just behind spot, and placing BTC sell orders at at around $580 as panic buying little fish gladly jump the queue 'in front of the monster that is seemingly about to push Bitcoin to stratosphere....we will see.

I am on verge of short margin call being triggered here but will not be going long on the back of this bullshit......not until $580 is strongly tested and even then I would want to see high volume support at higher prices than $580 if the market is to rise on the back of this bullshit.

I suspect a price spike, followed by bid wall support....3 million USD bid slips away followed by a massive dump.

EDIT: Liar! I jumped in long on gravy train with all the other little plankton...but will keeping my eyes peeled like a hawk on that 3K BTC bid. As soon as it disappears for more than 30 seconds I am out.

Don't be a bear in denial, earlier on there was a 2k bid wall being eaten now 3k wall. He genuinely wants to buy and no one to sell at this range now..
Might be our 10k noob sell whale, back in business.

Edit: Wall moved up to 584, he wants coins..

How Ripple Rips you: "The founders of Ripple Labs created 100 billion XRP at Ripple's inception. No more can be created according to the rules of the Ripple protocol. Of the 100 billion created, 20 billion XRP were retained by the creators, seeders, venture capital companies and other founders. The remaining 80 billion were given to Ripple Labs. Ripple Labs intends to distribute and sell 55 of that 80 billion XRP to users and strategic partners. Ripple Labs also had a giveaway of under 200 million XRP (0.002% of all XRP) via World Community Grid that was later discontinued.[29] Ripple Labs will retain the remaining 25 billion"

Any chance this is related to the Ukraine situation - Bitcoin the "safe haven" ha!,   Gold up this morning.
Maybe fear out of Ukraine is bringing people into Crypto?

Maybe a naive question but since I don't see anyone reflecting this point of view*:

Why not fundamentals? Russia starting shit -> stocks down, rubble down, gold up,  Bitcoin up.
