Hey Dave,

I like your mindset when you are talking about trading, I agree with every word you've said.

Regarding being disappointed, don't be brother, we are mature enough to know life is not easy yet not impossible and it's never too late to change our own career or to change our plans, we don't know what the future holds for us, for this reason, we must be cautiously optimistic and who knows, maybe this is better for you in the long run, why not ? I'm kinda sure you will do very well in your new journey as you did with mining, we've been her for too long my dear brother Smiley

I saw the ideas of yours and like them, but I've two questions if you don't

1- Would like to hear from you, when you are seeing us passing $1MM+ ?

2- What do you think about this idea ? https://www.tradingview.com/chart/BTCUSD/c2DYFwXO-Bear-time-is-near-to-end/ , it's Masterluc account.

3- The below bullish news will make you happy and euphoric Wink

Warmest regards,
Fak

Hi Fak,  Apologies for the delay, Brother!

Thanks for the motivation and inspiration!  Much appreciated, Sir!

Sure, I'll let you know when I see us potentially passing $1,000,000.   Grin

I looked at MasterLuc's idea on Trading View.  Sure, it's possible to reach $250,000 by July 15, 2019.  However, the motivation for that coming to pass must involve a complete total decimation of FIAT and stock markets around the world [As depicted in the publication below the image of a Wyckoff Distribution Schematic #1].  



Do "NOT" assume the price action in the Dow Jones Industrial Average chart (below) "must" play out "exactly" as the Wyckoff Distribution Schematic I provided as an example (above).  It's "only" an example...  I also explain [In black text bubbles] WHY the first Up Thrust After Distribution (UTAD) was REJECTED and resulted in a continued Up Thrust while the Deep State Bankers regrouped to determine another plan of action and how they would attempt to "Control the Narrative" for the next collapse.

Link with further discussion on chart below:  https://www.tradingview.com/chart/DJI/avHhTeC9-September-October-2018-May-Be-the-Beginning-of-a-Collapse/



If the price of Bitcoin went to $250,000, that would put the market cap of Bitcoin by itself at approximately $4.5 TRILLION US dollars.  This does not include the market cap of Alt Coins.  This would imply that $4.5 Trillion had the opportunity to transfer over to exchanges to bring liquidity to those exchanges.  Such a move of liquidity would more than likely be achieved by governments for the most part in my opinion.

This move of over $4 Trillion in FIAT to exchanges would also need to be done BEFORE stock markets tank by at least 50 to 70 percent.  When the stock markets tank by this significant of a drop, it's HIGHLY LIKELY the financials (banks) will have gone under.  I suspect THEY (banks) would have been the ones to have created digital FIAT out of thin air [Through what is called, "Fractional Reserve Banking] to transfer over to many crypto exchanges across the world via their SWIFT network.  However, the citizenry would not be able to transfer their FIAT to crypto exchanges AFTER a collapse of the financials (banks).  The citizenry would be left holding an empty bag.

The scenario (above) has been a fear of mine the past couple of years.  We have the financial collapse of Greece to look back on as a perfect example of what I'm referring to.  I've often wondered how a GLOBAL collapse would affect the price of crypto currencies.  Only early adopters of crypto would be able to benefit from such a global scenario.  

We have rough times ahead in regards to stock markets crashing, banks closing and governments defaulting on their treasury bonds.  I see a total ruin resulting in a RESET of the global FIAT system.  I also see those currently in power (banks) not taking chances and positioning themselves to benefit from this circumstance by transferring capital to obtain HARD ASSETS such as physical precious metals, land, real estate and crypto currencies.

If crypto currencies go up as much as MasterLuc has depicted in that short period of a time, we can conclude most of the crypto currencies purchased during this time were purchased by bankers and governments.  Also, "IF" banks have closed (collapsed), who would want FIAT currency?  Which means, who would want to sale their crypto for FIAT on crypto exchanges?  Those who do sale are making a bad decision.  It would be best to HODL during this period if one is not equipped with proper indicators and experience to use those indicators to take advantage of the dips on the way up to $250,000.

Also, if you think about it, banks would need to transfer their FIAT to crypto exchanges BEFORE such a collapse to purchase cryptos.

Why?

Banks collapsing (going under) could disrupt trading on crypto exchanges because it would be as though the crypto exchanges were just hacked for millions of their holdings. However, those holdings just happened to be FIAT held within banks they do business with on behalf of their customers (traders) when customers transfer/wire FIAT to the exchanges.

So, if banks are going to pull this off, they would have to REALLY think this through and do it in a well orchestrated manner that avoids doing damage to their own crypto holdings they plan to accumulate.  Meaning, they would have to transfer their crypto holdings off crypto exchanges BEFORE these exchanges are affected by banks going under.

I'll have a look at your bullishness news shortly.  I wanted to respond to your questions as soon as possible after neglecting to do so for so long.  Apologies, my brother!

Best Regards!!!

David

Dave, my dear brother and close friend of mine specially and for the rest of the family over here Smiley

At first, I won't accept your apology my dear because there is none, all of us know here how much of a busy man you specially these days and this thread and the family welcomes you at any time my dear.

I would like to thank you a lot for the last reply as I've learned from it a lot, it was a information-mine and let me have many questions to ask, here we go

1. Why can't I assume the price action in the Dow Jones Industrial Average chart  "must" play out "exactly" as the Wyckoff Distribution Schematic I you provided specially that with taking a close look on the DJ chart, the price was on a bull trend from the late of 2008 or 2009 I think till now and only coupled with few bear-traps or sell-offs and this bull trend must come to end ? Plus you've stated that there is a lot of supply which is not matching the demand so the test of supply here will be produce a negative result which is 'Phase D'.

2. What makes you sure that there is an imminent market crash in the making and it will hit us sooner than later ? On what base or reason did you build those assumptions my friend ?

3. Do you see governments are stacking on Bitcoin now in a secret manner ? and Why ?

4. Why you were feared about the scenario of you were referring to here "The scenario (above) has been a fear of mine the past couple of years.  We have the financial collapse of Greece to look back on as a perfect ....." ?

5. You said, "We have rough times ahead in regards to stock markets crashing, banks closing and governments defaulting on their treasury bonds.  I see a total ruin resulting in a RESET of the global FIAT system."

Why we will have rough times ahead ? And do you see this as imminent scenario ? If yes, why ?

6. Do you see banks have entered into Bitcoin accumulating business or not yet ? If not, what are they waiting for and when do you see this happening ? If yes, based on what did you say my dear ?

A lot of questions I know my dear, sorry about that but as you see, I enjoy and want to learn more from you Smiley

Thank you for your time and information in advance my dear brother Smiley

Warmest regards,
Fakhoury

Always checking in on this thread, even if I hardly contribute, but touching base with you permabulls is always nice every now and then. Latecomer myself but was surprised earlier in the year when people in this longer than I, purported bulls, were expressing how they were losing hope and it seemed strange for me, given how high price had gone just recently, and how they'd presumably been through far distressing periods.

So it's a return to basics with threads like these, especially knowing guys like Dave who appear on occassion are still fighting the fight, mining and trading... Business as usual is the mantra for the bulls.

You nearly summed our live our permabull friend, buwaytress.

As we dive 'everyday' into Bitcoin, we ask ourselves, how can't people grasp this breakthrough technology and it's impact on humanity ? Are we the people with 160+ IQ assembled as one of the most intelligent communities on Earth and ever known to Humanity ?

The journey is full of frustration, but yet amazing.

yeah this is a nice place for BULLS/long term believers to be around..... i also don't fully understand why some where having panic etc , but maybe that just shows that some are overinvested or just don't fully believe in the long term of BTC, and surely doesn't deserve beeing in BTC this early ..... that king of people should be entering @ later times when there's no other way around it anymore  Grin       (many doesn't deserve to be in BTC @ this cheap prices)

You got it right our dear permabull friend, micgoossens. A lot of people who entered the space were looking for a 'get-rich-quick' theme and they even didn't try to research about bitcoin to know that in the end (long-term), it's our destiny whatever we liked or not !!!

BTC: 36% in Circulation Lost, 23% Held by Speculators, US Tax Authority Monitoring


News URL : https://news.bitcoin.com/btc-36-in-circulation-lost-23-held-by-speculators-us-tax-authority-monitoring/

Hi again brother!!

I am a permabull.

OBVIOUSLY.

Any BTC lost is good for those who HODL, and at the same time we do need some way to more securely preserve and protect those we who HODL.

I think this is a business opportunity for those much smarter than I.  A way to secure, in a hardware wallet like Trezor or Ledger, and at the same time preserve absolute security.  It may require biometrics (fingerprints, eye scans, facial recognition technologies), or some other absolute security I cannot even imagine, but I can imagine.

For those who hold BTC,... lost BTC is no loss to you. It only increased scarcity to your benefit.  We SHOULD try to avoid the loss of BTC, and that includes those who die while owning BTC.  THIS IS AN ISSUE. 

Good will to all who HODL. 

Be strong;

We are all future wealthy IMHO.



Hey Bitmore1, nice to see you again our dear permabull brother and friend Smiley

I liked the two points you've came across.

- Regarding privacy, you will find beneath this comment the state-of-art privacy guide by the infamous Go to the profile of Jameson Lopp (@lopp), it cover nearly all the issues when it comes to OPSEC.

- Regarding the lost BTC, as Satoshi said, it's sacrifice and sending a 'thank you' for the HODLERS, although I don't like BTC lost because I put myself in the shoes of the person who've lost his/her BTC and feel how much painful it's for him/her but this life and nothing we can do about, and even if we've found solutions, I don't know if it will be fail-proof/bullet-proof or not.

And yes, we must be strong whatever happens and believe me, we will be rewarded for this insane pain we've witnessed/witnessing and will witness.

Also yes, we are the NEW WORLD ELITES

Hey Dave,

Yup, our thread is really going good with all of our contributions.

I like your new idea and from the bottom of my heart I wish you an insane success my dear brother and close friend but pardon me in something, don't you think that day trading usually and not for certain, leads to loss of BTC for a reason or another and it's the best to 'hodl' ?

Why with that much of gear you had and/or still have, didn't start mining some profitable altcoins and then convert them to Bitcoins as you know the Altcoins main purpose is to accumulate more Bitcoin ?

Again, wish you all the best my dear Smiley

Fak

Hi Fak,

It depends on how good of a trader you are in regards to whether one loses coins or gains coins when day trading.  Of course, it's virtually impossible to gain coins trading daily without knowledge and experience on how to use proper indicators.  It's also mandatory to have proper safeguards in place to keep losses small and gains large.  Another rule I follow is NEVER trade on margin (leverage).

As for mining profitable alt coins:  There are no profitable alt coins to mine anymore.  Equihash algorithm has gone ASIC.  ETH will soon be proof of stake.  What few coins left to mine already have way too many miners mining them; which in turn has driven up the difficulty.  My power rate has gone up over the last couple of years to $0.12 per kWh.  So, my power rate does not allow me to be competitive either.  It's simply time for me to get out of mining and focus on trading.

I enjoy teaching and trading.  So, I'm looking forward to starting the website soon to provide trading signals and trading education.  I've been shopping lately to prepare for teaching.  Also been shopping lately for items in the office remodel.  For example, here's what I'm going to use for my desktop on the back wall in my office:  https://i.imgur.com/muciHvq.jpg  Here's some shiplap I'm going to install on the upper two thirds of the back wall in my office along with white beaderboard on the lower third of the back wall:  https://i.imgur.com/gNf19rj.jpg  The 55 inch 4K TV's will look great on that back wall with the shiplap.  Here are the three TV's I bought:  https://i.imgur.com/Rgv9jlA.jpg  I'm simply wanting my office to look nice for future training videos.

It is disappointing investing approximately $10k for a power upgrade and mining room remodel and work hard for a couple of months to remodel the mining room; only to take it apart now and sale everything individually.  I'll have approximately 400 items in total to sale on ebay by the time it's all sold.  My ebay account says I've already sold 132 items since July 29th.

I refuse to let my current mining debacle get me down.  You probably know that's how I provided for my family.  Now I'm going to use my trading and trading website to provide for my family.

Here's my most recent BTCUSD publication if you want to check it out:  https://www.tradingview.com/chart/BTCUSD/ahiDpw8x-Definitely-Looking-Like-Wyckoff-Accumulation-Schematic-2/

Here's one chart in particular for you to compare a Wyckoff Accumulation Schematic #2 (lower right corner) with current price action for BTCUSD.  It definitely looks BULLISH to me.

David

Perfect to stress on this again and again but hey dmwardjr, where the heck have you been our dear and old permabull friend ?! Long time since we've seen you, or me at least.

Hi Fakhoury,

Good to see you still have the thread going strong!  ; )

As for me:  I worked real hard for several months remodeling and enlarging my mining room while adding an additional 200 Amps power service upgrade.  Only a couple of months after the remodel and power upgrade, I have decided to shut down my GPU mining.  I've been selling a LOT of hardware on eBay since July 29th.  At least 400 items in total to sale.  I've sold 107 items thus far.  Most of which have been GPU's.  I still have over 100 GPU's to sale; along with motherboards, 1150 socket processors with coolers, RAM, power supply units, power distribution units, 36 inch 6-pin cords, CAT6 cords of various lengths, different power cords, etc...

I'm currently remodeling my office and will have approximately 17 monitors for trading.  I also hired an Operations/Marketing Manager and an IT Manager to work with me on a trading signal and trading education website.  I hope to go LIVE with that website by end of October.  It could be end of November.  Not sure yet...

I do navigate to bitcointalk on occasions but not near as much as I used to.  I spend most of my time on Trading View when I'm not selling hardware on eBay or working on my office remodel.

Permabull Bitcoin Investor
Hello,

As I'm a Permabull and highly optimistic regarding Bitcoin in terms of technology and price.

I decided to open this thread to share everything and anything bullish that mentions Bitcoin in a bullish matter.

I like and love to spread optimism in the air, it makes me as well as other people feels euphoric.

Hopefully I will update this thread everyday, once or twice.

Thanks.

N.B. : The thread is self-moderated for obvious reasons

As a bitcoin lover we have to turn on an optimistic attitude every day as long as that energy is still in our body, it's a necessity which all of us must have so that success should not be the dream of a few popes. As a bitcoin user, we must be able to contribute to realizing the growth of bitcoin prices which's better and becomes the pride of all users especially for future heirs, namely our children and grandchildren.


Thanks for the bullish news my old dear friend, BitcoinNewsMagazine.

But I'm somehow confident that in a decade we will be $1MM+, not at $1xx,xxx  Wink

I strongly agree with your opinion on this one although many people say that the market's difficult to predict but I think bitcoin can certainly reach $ 1MM in the future and that's not impossible. And I'm very sure bitcoin will be accepted by many countries, fast or slow.



Well said regarding your first quote brother.

Regarding the second, it will get adopted by countries and it will pass $1MM+, we just need to give to time as well as have patience.

Coinbase Doubles Staff Count To 500, Even In Bear Market

Hey Fakhoury:

I am going to take this kind of news from Coinbase with a BIG grain of salt.  Coinbase seems to be considerably distracted by alt coin pumping and dumping, so their non-bitcoin distracted ways of striving to make money remains questionable regarding the extent to which the actions of Coinbase is bullish about bitcoin or their distraction into supporting other projects that might really be a kind of indirect attack on bitcoin (the one that brought Coinbase to the dance in the first place).

Welcome back my dear and old friend JJG,

Here is another source

Didn't expect this from you my dear old friend LFC, aren't you bullish anymore or making fun of me ?

Bitgo receives approval in South Dakota to be an institutional custodian of crypto assets. Dunno what the deal is with operating in other states, but it sounds like they have clients lined up and waiting.

Institutional investors are FOMOing and they are in for a s***load of money, thanks for the bullish news my old dear friend, Gentlemand.

FWIW, I use Coinbase, and it seems to be a competent and well run company, even if it is suffering from massive growth pains.  And I think this massive growth they are experiencing is indicative of the future, where they are positioning themselves.  They do have alt coin trading, as any good well run business should, but I don't think it is a distraction as much as just offering the most for the customer which they cater to.

I doubt they will have the resources and time to waste with possible bad investments.  Their "Vault" even seems to be a relatively safe way to store BTC, even though I keep mine in off line cold storage.

The big picture of BTC may be hard to see, but the periphery of the industry, as exemplified by Coinbase, is showing the stress of what could be massive growth and expectations.

 

Welcome my bullish old friend, Bitmore. As I've said above, the Institutional investors are FOMOing and they are in for a s***load of money which in place will reflect on the price for sure.

IMPORTANT:  If "YOU" do not own the KEY to your wallet, the coins in that wallet are NOT your coins!

Coinbase does NOT give YOU the KEY to your wallet.  Which means it's NOT "YOUR" wallet.  It's THEIR wallet!


Perfect to stress on this again and again but hey dmwardjr, where the heck have you been our dear and old permabull friend ?! Long time since we've seen you, or me at least.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
https://www.coindesk.com/bitgo-receives-regulatory-approval-to-custody-crypto-assets/

Bitgo receives approval in South Dakota to be an institutional custodian of crypto assets. Dunno what the deal is with operating in other states, but it sounds like they have clients lined up and waiting.

They expect to get a certain degree of crypto custody approval from other states based on reciprocity, according to the article.
