Dang, sounds pretty bullish in here. Are we about to get dumped on?

Thank you price dumper. House sale money all converted finally after a month and a half voyage from check to bitcoins.

Yep, 230 bitcoins added to my stash.

You should come to Svalbard. It's the poor mans Antarctica.
It's definitely on the list. One day I hope to come across somewhere so desolate and depressing that I instantly drop dead from sheer despair. In the UK Port Glasgow does a nice job. I think some forgotten city in Siberia's going to do it.

I have a strong suspicion that we're headed for a breakout above 700 within the next few weeks.
dafuq?
Why are you bullish all of the sudden?
Is it job related or just a weird british thing? They're not exactly common tourist destinations.
Weird British. I fucking love going to the backs of beyond and you can't get much more beyond than that. The first place I went to in the US was rural Nebraska. I was in Newfoundland recently and headed straight for the most remote communities I could find. It certainly feeds my soul. Dunno why.

Better than use mortgage money to short Bitcoin. Looks like he won't need the money anytime soon to pay bills or anything like.
Even if he loses he'll earn the brave investor badge anyway

You leave our comely east coast latecomers alone!
Wouldn't you be trying to get your fingers in innocent knickers by showing them things they hadn't eaten before like beef or chocolate? They also liked photography very much and were amazed by phone calls even though they couldn't really speak.

Wow, you're going to Pitcairn?
That's a hell of a journey.
Ascension, Falklands and St Helena primarily, and by the sounds of it the Saints are fond of 'chickens' too. If my ship comes in both literally and metaphorically then Pitcairn too.
I'd really like to do Tristan da Cunha as well but I could probably save thousands of pounds by going to a village on the local moors and projecting some sea on my VR glasses plus I'd have the option to leave any time I want when I got bored as fuck.

Buy opportunity or sell opportunity?

or
you could buy and get a much as 300% within a few months / years
tough call

Hi Elwar,
I saw your post about General Dynamics and DCGS-A.
I feel your pain.
Have you considered work where you're not so tied up to the government insanity that is the military?
One brief moment when I was looking for a job I added private companies to my list. My skillset is wide and not specialized because of how contracts work. They need someone to fill a slot, they'll put you in that slot even if you know it just a little as long as you have a lot of experience and have a degree (and a clearance). So I've been a network engineer, software engineer, system admin, Java/C++/.NET/Ada, etc. A wide range of skills but no specialization in one single skill. While searching for a job in the private sector they tend to look for someone that is very specialized in one skill set, especially at the senior level. I interviewed for several Java positions and one person told me that I was more of a junior level programmer but my salary requirement was senior level. Which was true since I use Java for most positions but I am never a Java developer.
Plus the clearance I have, only .001% of Americans have that clearance. Which makes it easy to get a good paying job for any job that requires that clearance. There is certainly no outsourcing of my job to lower paid foreigners. That and my willingness to travel and live anywhere in the world (including war zones) gives me a very good salary. Getting paid $250k-$500k per year is not unheard of for my type of work in war zone environments (working 84 hour work weeks, 365 days a year). That's a lot of bitcoins.
I do plan on retiring in a few years, work on something I can just do over the Internet and travel the world. I'll retire a lot sooner if bitcoin goes over $2-3k.
Sounds like you'll be retiring next year then. This sucker can't stay down much longer.

There is no way to determine whether or not it is a good buy time because we haven't seen a lot of potential energy coming from the market, and there doesn't seem to be much enthusiasm with the traders right now, so it doesn't seem like buying today is a good idea. Maybe in a week or two I can see more of a buy scenario, but for now I would hold off and see where it goes.
There might be a breakout coming for Bitcoin soon, but we'll have to wait and see.

Of course, today is a buy opportunity because, if you noticed, the price is going down.
The best practice is to buy BTC on the way down and to sell on the way up.
If you were going to sell some bitcoins, then you should have already done that.
So under the current price direction, the opportunity is here and that is to buy little bitcoins, and the only questions are how much to buy and at what price increments.
Yup, I'm leaning towards buy opportunity too.
Just gonna wait a while to make sure it doesn't continue downwards.
I think some huge gains are in sight the coming months.
I just think that it is too risky to either wait too long to buy BTC or to buy too much BTC at any given price point.
Let's say for example that you have 100BTC and $5,000 in your BTC investment fund, then you likely could spread that $5,000 over increments down to $550, such as buying $500 every $10 down, or some other arrangement that is comfortable for you and maybe depending upon how fast the BTC price goes down (or if it goes down).
Yet, if BTC prices go up, then for every dollar it goes up, you have $100 in profits, then if the price goes up by $50, then your portfolio is going to be up by $5k anyhow, even if you do not buy any, and maybe in that case, you could sell $2.5k or so of those profits in order to be able to buy back... and therefore if BTC prices go up to $700, then you may have $7,500 in cash and only about 96 BTC.
That is kind of the way that I play these ups and downs in prices, yet overall my number of BTC keeps going up (little by little without very much overall risk)

Buy 100% ... Someone wants more coins, and they can't get enough as much as they want to get. And in the same time the rest don't have enough fiat to buy more just yet.That is essentially the problem we are facing...
*Edit: We are undervalued at least $150+ ... That's where the normal price should be staying and be safe. Everything Above $900+ in August would be good for selling!
*Edit1: I have a strange feeling we will see $900+ in 1 or 2 weeks. As the first leg up. Then the next leg is $1200-1300$ ... the 3rd leg up.. who knows.. maybe 2000$ in the mid-late September.

How huge tho?
90% of my net worth is in bitcoin now hehe... I'm either retarded or a genius
July 22, 2016, 09:13:26 AM
Is this really a surprise?
Every end of month there is a mini dump because people need to sell BTC to pay taxes.
Things must be really boring now t opeople mind about $10 changes
