At 13300 someone sold 700 BTC on bitfinex down to 12768. Sells like this are highly suspicious and quite often in the last 2 weeks. I am convinced that the xrp company is behind the last attack just like Ver and sockpuppets did before that. This was prepared months ago by gathering hundred of thousands BTC, then sell each time it starts rising. In the meantime they buy of their own offers (mostly) to continue the pump. Fortunately, BTC has only several millions coins in circulation, so this manipulation can't continue longer than few weeks. Hodlers know this and won't fall for their satanic rituals  

When LN is going to be a complete trojan horse (as I explained in my post on the previous page), why would the bankers NOT want you to buy bitcoin?  Whether cockstream is in on the scheme and doing this on purpose or they're somehow delusional and don't know what's going to happen is the only question.  It's possible they drank too much Antonopolous koolaid and don't even understand it's not possible to create a decentralized digital currency in the first place, only centralized ones.

your so funny
buy sand cus it's not held by banks and it's decentralized sand is the future

To stop the bugmen cucks from cheerleading some completely centralized govt tracking system obviously.  There is no defeating the jew bankers using bitcoin.  The bankers love you buying this garbage.  The only thing the bankers are afraid of is people buying physical metals.

You cannot be serious.  Do you actually know what LN is?  I'll tell you what it is.  LN is nothing more than establishing bitcoin banks on top of the blockchain.  All of the exact same regulation traditional banks have will be applied to them and bitcoin will be virtually identical to your current banking system.  The only reason it hasn't happened yet is because it's too difficult for them to play whack-a-mole with regulating miners, but the LN "nodes" aka banks are less ambiguous in nature and will be regulated to infinity just like any normal financial services provider or bank.  

The costs, compliance, and amount of lawyers needed will be so high only entities like JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs will run them.  This is how crony capitalism works.  You introduce regulation with compliance requirements and fees so high that only your existing monopoly can participate while all small competitors are eliminated.

Nevermind the fact LN doesn't function in a decentralized manner in the first place.  There is also ZERO incentive for LN nodes aka banks to broadcast transactions to external peers.  There is actually incentive for these bitcoin banks to FORCE a hub and spoke model or cartel collective in order to hold their users hostage for usury fees (just like regular banks do). There's also nothing that stops them from changing usage of bitcoin as settlement to ripple, US dollars, or anything else.  I wrote more on why LN is unworkable on the technical side here:

I for one dont give a fuck. why you here? did you sell all your btc for silver? when it hits $100000 you will still be complaining.  roll on the next 1000% rise .

^^^^^^

I hope in 2018 we will see prices with 6 digits! In the worst case scenario,  the 20K will be revisited for sure. HODL!

Will you have some patience? It looks like LN is (FINALLY) coming soon enough.

If you can't, then just sell! And go on to other more productive things for you.

This thread has turned into a bunch of zombies that make believe the price can only go up 1000% per year.  Does anyone care that bitcoin is completely centralized?  No.  Does anyone care that bitcoin doesn't actually function as some type of transactional currency and it's only real function is a crowd sourced pump and dump?  Not really.  For all intents and purposes, bitcoin can be replaced with a stock ticker on the NYSE called "widgets" that have no type of use besides having a finite amount.

Yup, the medium term floor is slowly rising each week.

Or the longer we stay at a relatively low price. It's also a function of time.

I voted $10,000-$12,000 several weeks ago. Just based on MasterLuc's prediction. There's still time to hit the target. Remember what he said, if we go back to $10,000 again next floor is $70,000. The lower we go up to $5,000 the higher is the next floor.

Maybe it's time for their yearly exit scheme?

yeah. for me too 

Bitfinex down



Edit:  will be back up 15 - 30 minutes .....

Nice to see the arse fall out of Bitstamp on the news. 

Hmm... A bit too optimistic maybe?
There must be a huge huuuuuge resistance because of all the people who invested in the 18k because of the FOMO.
I think we first need a stabilizing period probably around the 12/14k. It will allow the renewal of investors who won't be afraid of another drop because for them 12k will be the new "average".

Expecting 24k is expecting ANOTHER +100% growth and I think it's really to much. What would justify something like this? Especially with the diversity of investments you can make right now.

Nonsense coins like ripple have already suffered from bitcoins weakness in the last 24 hours

Happy new 2018!  I've some hours to go 

Cheers

This seems to be the safe option to assume:



Kind of rhymes with my guess on reachting $24xxx
