Topic: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion - page 13485. (Read 26719360 times)

BJA has a fairly interesting history, for a seeming bitcoin OG that has also been talking his book, and really trying to get others to follow him in his selling and/or shorting.  He had admitted it several times, too, but he also admitted a few times when he had taken pretty strong positions and got rekt pretty bad, too... which is sad - but utlmately stupid since he was trying to act like he was the smartest person in the room when he was taking some of those positions.

He also has a pretty famous quote in the "new gentlemen elite thread" in 2011, where he said he was going to ride this pig (referring to bitcoin) wherever it takes him - but then again, he soon did not even follow his own supposed bullish statement.

So, it does seem that he is the same account, but you really cannot tell for sure if someone bought out the account, either.

I sold all the way up, Bro.  I was down to dust at the top. Bought some really cool night vision goggles on purse.io.  I can't really use them on the SeaDoo I bought before that. Or the convertible. or the other convertible. or the motorcycle. or the house. How u doin?

I'm not pumping anything. I just wonder why a coin with a tiny market cap seems to lead the market. I'm asking a question.

Wooow, super slick, I love the interface. Main page is depressing on a bear day though, so much color red.

What a stupid cow, I bet she lives on trans fats and and believes the world is 6000 years old.



Hah. this is awesome!


Oooo that just sounds painful. Ouch

cryptowat.ch

Look what just happened! Dash is an amazing leading indicator. I still don't know why.

yeah, more or less worse case scenario is what I was doing above...IF crypto has legs and BTC etc and does NOT go tulips..it will be hard for me to fail...even if it goes 'tulips' and all

is worth nothing... I retired 3 years early due to crypto so wtf...

so just 1/2'd everything.....and HOPE BTC acts like gold and goes sideways in price or up on such a dire situation...and even with that .same income as when I worked...used

crypto (now) to bridge the gap till at least 65 (can use IRA $$ from work at 1/2 value to get thru last year to 66..65 has Medicaid that is a 14k no longer health insurance bill for the year)

and again.traditional investments (beyond the above IRA I could use as a stop gap) and i can burn all my altcoins and the worse case still keep BTC hoard left and no change in income

all the way thru...assuming ... I still have no debt as of now

so ...if it is no worse than the above....as long as no debt I can 'boringly' chug along and my previous 30yrs more or less buying power for income per year..save the BTC hoard

for better times...and if it all goes tulips... I have a plan to make a shelf  covered with tulips with paperwallet btc wallpaper and a couple ASIC miners ...as my 'shelf of shame'

(always best to have a backup, denial self...IMHO)

So, with that figured out...less angst and more WTF I have no idea what is going on with crypto/society/politics etc...and can hopefully just ride the whole mess out

again, too much angst, we are gonna get hit with a pretty hard recession IMHO, thus if above is the floor/bsmt hopefully I'm pessimistic and it is all up from here

the main thing is stay retired..for next 2.5 years or some such left...anything else from that is gravy in these uncertain times...even if I have to burn all my crypto and BTC

till full retirment ...not working for dicks will be a 'reward on to itself' ....(perspective)

Of course, you would come back to this thread to bring up some stupid-ass cock-a-mie off-topic alt-coin pumping theory that makes little to no sense, except for yourself to attempt to suggest that the tail is wagging the dog rather than the other way around.  go figure?  

By the way, how is the sale of all your BTC in the $200s going and subsequent attempt to short (and pump your short) at $500?  

Were you smart enough to get back in at some point prior to $19k?

I think that I understand what you are saying.

If you retired at $10k per BTC, and you calculated that you need at least $1k per BTC to be safe, then right now, you have 6x the minimum, but if you needed at least $10k to be safe, then right now, you are panicking. 

So the situation is a matter of perspective and proper planning, rather than getting pissed off about a current price that it still quite a good price, given where the price was at 3 years ago (at $250-ish) or 2 years ago (at $600-ish) or even one year ago (at $2,500-ish).

Billys back?? 

Has anyone noticed how Dash has been the bellweather for many recent market moves? It seems to precede the Bicoin turns by anywhere from a minute to two hours. Dash has a tiniy market cap and paper thin volume, so this should not be the case, IMO.

to that guy on bitmex, please stop flashing your 30 million sell wall  

(was some hours ago)

my denial is in a different form....'everything' is a bubble...the stock market is next....a normal recession/correction is 20% with Trump and other issues in society ..I expect at least

a 40% recession...thus IF BTC is a store of value like Gold...MAYBE..it will simply, when the above happens, simply go sideways in price or up yet (like gold maybe)

So ..figured my retirement  (traditional) and crypto (best guess at say 3k BTC) and knock wood ...stay out of debt..income is no worse than it was before I was in crypto...

so calling it a win and moving on...

again, too much weird ass, denial crap, in society and business and gov't going on ...sh*t IMHO is going to hit the fan..

If I'm wrong, I'll have 2x the money I expect in everything and will be pleasantly surprised

but...really not thinking that is gonna be the case

(could be worse....w/o crypto I would not have retired 3 years early and thus not be able to whine about above..man would I be frigging freaking out if that was the case...

likely to be pro-active I'd be looking for a 2nd part-time job on top of full time job..just to be proactive...so shudder..it is not that bad for me anyway....crypto 66% dump in

price or not

my 2 satoshi's

I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once again able to defend the value of Bitcoin, to ride out the storm of FUD, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone. At any rate, that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of His Majesty’s Government-every man of them. That is the will of Parliament and the nation. The British Empire and the French Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their blockchain, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength. Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous Altcoins have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Banksters and all the odious apparatus of Socialist rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight on bitfinex, we shall fight on gemini and bitstamp, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our blockchain, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the forums, we shall fight on twitter, we shall fight in /r/bitcoin and /r/btc, we shall fight on tradingview; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, tether blows up, and Bitcoin plunges to $3,000, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of Bitcoin.

@YourMother great TA

A 30-min chart will produce a noisy signal if you want to apply it to a six month trend. I don't see much use going below one-day resolution really.

Yes & Yes.

A few more Halvenings, and as people catch on to limited supply and cost of mining.... Asteroid Belt!

That seems to be a bit strange, and even a bit scammy, and it seems that a large part of the obstacle matter happened before the July 2017 USA Govt seizure.  That is a lot of quantity of coins (in terms of BTC value), and it seems that it could be worth it to hire some kind of russian diplomat.. there is a language barrier, perhaps too.  I had found that some of my previous communications did have some difficulties based on language, but they are likely NOT too excited to deal with anyone who has USA connections.. and then your identifications are conflicting too.. but that might just be an excuse than an actual barrier that is not able to confirm you to be you.  The only other issue would be if there were more than one person making a claim to your account, then they are left in a pickle (but that does not seem to be the case with your actual situation).


I recalculated, and you seem to be correct that I was off by a factor of 10x... so that makes a BIG difference.. 4btc, versus 40btc..
and perhaps 4 btc might not be as much worth the effort to fight and to sort out... even if it hurts, it can be written off because it was purchased a long time ago when the value was way lower...

I think that most of us know Elwar enough to recognize that he was being a bit facetious with his earlier self-assessed "desperation."  Seems that he was also inclined to believe that we could be at a possible bottom, here, and I am not sure if that it is too optimistic, or not.

Surely, it would be nice to get a bit of upward BTC price action from here.. but even though such uppity could happen at any minute, it could also take months for that upwards scenario to meaningfully happen.  How many more sellers are there?  How many more hands can be shaken?  Do the bears have enough coins that they are willing and able to dump in order to inspire such additional shaking of coins?
