AssHats everywhere

Look at their bank interest rate, you might as well keep your fiat savings in a box buried in the garden.

Yeah, but at least it is still in the positive territory. Tongue

Yeah positive like Tom Hanks in Philadelphia positive.

With your next installment of fun from your team (I assume you are from the US?) you will get a MASSSSSSSIVE QE raft in QE4 and you will get negative interest rates too I should think at some point (NIRP) couple that with some perpetual bonds and the wizard will have truly landed and face fucked everyone with his magic wand.. (*Edit I say your fun and your team,but I am kidding, and actually that particular piece of wizardry is really going to be fun for one and all)

Wizards.... wizards everywhere.

(something something Bitfinex/Bitgo something something..wizards...something something....cunts more like)

We're headed back down again soon. The whales haven't finished eating panic plankton yet.

Not likely. It is just showing up trend from on forward.
Unless more bad news comes out of the bitfinex investigation or another exchange gets attacked before the weekend hits. Embarrassed

Think you're wrong, the market panic sold but rely bfx is an unlicensed, somewhat illegal exchange. It's all blown over now & the price is recovering.

Bitcoin as a whole hasn't been damaged here, it's nothing like the ETH, DAO hack.

I'm not saying there is anything wrong with bitcoin. I think the recent price movements were just sped up by the bitfinex hack but it was headed that way. The price movement from 666-604 happened without any knowledge of the hack and there is no way that many people had foresight of the hack to cause the decline. The most competent T/A folks were predicting it long before it happened, even to the price levels very accurately. People feel a little more confident now but we are going to test the lower levels again before it can rise appreciably in my opinion. I think we are looking at November- December 2016 before we see any kind of serious approach at new highs.

In other words, you either failed to buy back in or you sold again, and you are hoping to buy back in?

You could be correct, but some of this market movement and additional correction seems somewhat dependent upon the news that comes out of Bitfinex - which based on their already disclosures is likely to be neutral, at worst.

Otherwise, you are somewhat dependent upon some other negative news or FUCD spreading, which is not out of the question, but you cannot rely upon such a FUCD spreading thing or technical calamity thing to take place. But in some sense, we cannot put it passed the bearwhale banker trolls to make such an attempt at FUCD spreading, such as China is banning bitcoin which probably won't work or even though the Craig Wright is Satoshi has been tried, they may be able to some up with some variation, which will probably not work, either. hahahahaha Cheesy

o.k. yeah, i will concede that they may have some other tricks in the bag that could work, at least temporarily, which is all that is needed.

Once again, my heart goes out to all those who lost coins at Finex

Your have a kinder heart than I.

My heart goes out to all those Bitcoiners who, after countless exchange failures and hacks, understood the risks of holding large IOUs with third parties, yet still had to watch their asset drop in value as the market priced in (is pricing in) those events. (Of course some will argue this was going to happen to the market anyway.)

The unfortunate thing about society is that everyone has to take the bad along with the good, and when stupid people get together and fuck shit up, everyone pays the price. Perhaps I'm cold hearted, or even a pessimist, but I don't understand this forgiveness when everyone has to bear the burden of the irresponsible.

To be clear, while shitty things do happen quite a lot in bitcoinlandia, I'm speaking more generally here, and these types of "everyone pays" events happen all the time in the grand scheme of things.

Yeah I can't see that happening, I guess they'll file for business bankruptcy, they've lost all credibility & I doubt they have the means necessary to sort this out.

It's one big sorry mess.

let's see. don't underestimate the addiction people have for what it offers. the wording the bitfinex guy is using at present seems to imply they plan to get up and running again as if nothing ever happened. it's hard to tell who's less connected with reality, them or their customers who'll attempt to flock back.

Hhahaahahaha... Even though you tend to be a troll bear with a lot of dumb-ass assertions, this one is not dumb.

What I am trying to say is that you are speaking quite a bit of truth, here.

Bitfinex will not be going down anytime soon, unless they experience some other major attack. I expect that they are going to fake it until they make it, and customers are going to largely follow them, so long as they do not make overly restrictive and stupid moves that are going to create impressions of insolvency...

You're never too old to think young.

An early good morning Bitcoinland.

Seems we're almost back to where we were before the Finex hack panic.

This could be where the price might have been today without the (as someone called it) "semi-fake crash".

It seems Bitcoin's death was once again "greatly exaggerated".

Hope all the sensible non-exchange holders took advantage of the dip. Once again, my heart goes out to all those who lost coins at Finex

It is going back up where it was before this semi-fake crash.

I can't believe there are people that stupid to call this a fake crash lol

I can't believe there are people so stupid that believe there is no China bitcoin exchange trading cartel.

They know the price on the long run it can't go but UP! ... so they had to do a big shake of weak hands to buy with at least 10-15% cheaper.

*Edit: If you pay close attention on all exchanges in the same time... you will see that China is calling all the shots. Meaning if they have coins on all exchanges, they know ahead of everybody when they pump or dump! ... I have a suspicion that even the Finex exchange fiasco happened because the chinese traders expanding their borders on the gambling grand scheme. And it was a good opportunity to scare them off and not get involved in the West anymore.

yes most people do benefit from real growth. But just a few benefit directly from nominal(number) growth.

I think a better idea is let, banks, and people and economies fail, and then rise from the dead, stronger, wiser, more prudent and responsible and more risk aware and adverse...and independent, and if they cannot, then they should simply fail.... by propping up bad actors, the system gets sicker and sicker, weaker and weaker... same with individuals involved... good kick in the balls is needed to wake everyone up.

i am willing to bet five years of global gdp that this will never, ever, ever happen. it's gonna carry on limping until every last one of us is living in a box, eating mud and too malnourished to pour into the streets and hang people.

yeah, I said it would be a better idea... not that it would ever happen Wink

itBit is clearly leading both in volume and price ( according to http://bitcoincharts.com/markets/ )

now i'm wondering, what is itBit? and where did it come from?

I've been using itBit. I was going to buy via Coinbase but their restrictions and all of that are too difficult to make it useful.

With itBit I have to wire my money to the exchange which costs me $30 on my bank's end and $10 on itBit's side and it costs .2% for a trade. Compare that to Coinbase's 1%.

So if you look at a $10,000 deposit for both:
itBit: $30 + $10 + $20 = $60
CoinBase: $100

Anything over $5,000 is cheaper with itBit.

But itBit is just a whole lot less restrictive than Coinbase is.

Wow, it's so much cheaper in Europe. I use SEPA transfers to send money to and from Kraken. Costs me nothing for a deposit and €0.09 for a withdrawal. Takes about 4 hours on average (but outside office hours nothing happens).
