Is it just me or is the bitcoin actually going according to the graph of October to December graph of 2013?

At the end, we should remember what happened that time. Lips sealed

Looks more like the April/May 2013 one to me. So... double bubble $10K Bitcoin in 2018?

If that is the case expect a dip to ~$700 in the July month of your scenario.

That's exactly what I'm expecting.

But that could possibly happen in June, and a dip can be of ~$1000, in my opinion.

What % of the new buys are from n00bs and what % are whales buying smart?

How badly has USDT inflated the charts on USD with nothing more than difference between usd and usdt?

You only really use the money when you spend it on something.

Considering Japan and Korea seem to be leading I think it's largely noob city.

No idea what effect the USDT thing is having but it's certainly not a helpful one.


Do I see traces of fear starting to appear among the holders? This is how real corrections begin, with your attitude. When people start saying "i'm worry it's  gonna end soon" they are already keeping their finger on the button.

I for one couldn't really give a shit what happens in the near future. I plan to reassess after the next halving.

Correct me if I'm wrong of course, but what exactly is explaining the btc doubling its price in a month?
Did we double btc use? Btc demand?

Yes. We doubled and trippled btc use. Look at tx fees! Demand is huge. More and more people would like to have at least 1 bitcoin but there will be only 21 million bitcoins for a population beyond 7 billion.

Where are the moon pics?
I expect at least 3,5kUSD and max. 7k USD
We see a organic exponential growth!
just look at the google"buy bitcoin" search results
It's time for plan B! game over for the centralised  fiat money system!

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody
I can't help but thinking that this is going to end very badly. There have been minimal to no corrections since late 2015, with corrections becoming more and more minimal towards the current price. The price has risen 3x this year alone, and risen 11x since late 2015.

1000 USD you say , no problem I'm all in since 720...

Or exchange manipulation mafia bullshit.

Very possibly. We probably have that to partially thank for 2013, and China's subsequent shenanigans contributed to the price suppression with relentless dumpage. It would've been more reassuring if this run had started with a BFX that worked.

You're never too old to think young.

Probably. Between new demand worldwide (e.g. S. Korea, Brazil) and institutional interest due to legal changes in places like Japan and Australia,

demand is soaring.

Couple that with fixed supply of new coins and reluctance of holders to sell and you're bound to have rising prices.

My favorite local sources have already run out of coins.

I don't see what's healthy in this growth. I can't say I hate it though of course, but I'm much more sceptical about the "healthy aspect".

I think it's good old FOMO due to hungry new markets.

If you sat back and looked at the actual Bitcoin system, nothing's changed technically, merchant usage is becoming impractical, users are whining like fuck.

None of that's healthy. It may not stop it though. All it requires is more buyers than sellers.

yes
It's not a stock, it's a network. And hype cycles belong to it, I'm afraid (this will increase adopters and build the nessessary infrastructure for real life applications).

What is the value of a network? The number of users
What is the value of a permissionless, non-centralised open network that is the largest? I could say $1mln/token may not even be enough to capture this

But I digress: it's mainly speculation in the current phase  Cool

Who knows? But both 2013's high and subsequent hangover were excessive and that brutality was caused by factors that don't exist any more.

It's all still being made up as it goes along and visibility is ever growing. Still, if it's sub $1000 I'd be tempted to buy a little more.

Everyone talks about "healthy growth"

But there is something I don't understand...
Healthy growth on a product, whatever it is, means that the growth is backed by a growing demand and/or a diminishing supply. In general it will be backed by an increasing use.

Demand has skyrocketed.  Moon rocketed?  Whatever.  Money can't get into crypto fast enough, and its jamming up all the gates.  Have you actually looked around?  Exchanges are backlogged signing up new users.  Poloniex accounts up 600% in 3-4 months.  Its not random.  It's happening!

If you believe the South Korea / Japan stories then it is more than possible we are seeing doubling of demand.

First they margin call shorts then they margin call longs.
