Is this a global system or a tiny 7-11 money transfer service?


Bitcoin is a very small and immature global system. Yes, Bitcoin is much much smaller in volume, assets and equity than 7-11 which has trillions of dollars in revenue and almost 4 trillion in assets.

If we are to scale upwards the price will need to go through massive uptrends still.


I am much happier with daily 8 dollar rises than daily 50 dollar rises. It appears to me your priorities are more inline with being a speculative investor trying to make a quick buck than a healthy and "slow" growth. 2.6% daily growth is actually too dramatic and still very volatile. I look forward to getting excited over 0.5% daily rises in 5-9 years. A slow and healthy trend means that the crash will likely be much less and we may even get a double bubble this year after investors see the crash was far less than expected.

Yeah, stable BTC at 400 bucks... great for the 100,000 people who will use it. If we are to scale upwards the price will need to go through massive uptrends still. Is this a global system or a tiny 7-11 money transfer service?

BTC used to be so exciting... now we go up 8 dollars and people act like they made a fortune.  Undecided
Boring.

Its actually pretty exciting because it indicates a general trend towards greater stability as adoption/liquidity and market depth grows. This is one of the final valid criticisms of bitcoin that it isn't a good unit of account because its volatility.

If you are a whale trying to buy btc before halving then why not pump the shit out of eth on polo first then sell into btc making 10x the btc that you would if you would of just bought into btc.  Sure alts will follow?

In XEM we trust
polo coins getting dumped and btc going up... makes you wonder how far this will go and if it was planned before halving.
Well, people are waking up. That the hype is about bitcoin block halving, not about altcoins. There is still money to be made with alts. When bitcoin rockets, most alts will most likely follow.

We are still stuck in the 5 month channel.
Grab your popcorn when we break 440 dollar and grab your moonboots when we go over 475 dollars.
There is room for more sideways.
But I hope I'm wrong.
Would be funny if we double top at the last ATH and crash to double digits.

at what point do we all decide that i am right ?? at six weeks trading within the same tight range ?? i do not consider a small brief dip above or below my call as actually breaking my prediction.. my prediction is not based upon charts or technicals, it is based upon my experience with manipulated markets and the obama admin . i have suggested that the manipulators like to move pms to discredit the predictions .. why not happen here ?? the answer is they are stuck in this tight range.. i'm recording the fodder . always try be ahead of the game and cover your ass . #1 in the house!

Gentleman, start your engines. It's time to go up into the clouds and beyond.

Lift off is coming this week, short or long it. could be an epic cry week if you choose wrong.

Three days to the resolution of this dramatic competition.  

(Last year's contest was won by @fonzie.)

JorgeStolfi      81.01
fonzie      99.66
AlexGR      12,000.00

I had a dream*, around 2 years ago...  actually the dream was 18k, but I lowered it a bit for the contest to 12k since the contest date was for april 2016 (still many months to the end of the year / and many months post-halving).

Last night I dreamt about a compassionate Donald Trump.  Take that into account the next time you dream about btc  Grin

Alt guys covering, or fake & break...

Good morning (and happy Easter to those who care) Bitcoinland. Seems I picked the right time to wake up.

Bye bye $420, let's get this over $430 and keep moving up. It's about time.


What is your target (if I can ask) ?

My target is to not have to sell any coins unless I really need fiat in an emergency.

It's not a target price but rather a target date. I'll turn 75 years old in 2023. My amassed bitcoins are my old age pension fund.

Oh then good luck, I can't 'blame' you... for you bitcoin seem the unique way to save money for the future.

How many times are we gonna get fooled the same way?



until you give up and fork off?

Everyone who ran off to Ethereum as the "new currency" is going to get rekt hard.  Ethereum wasn't even designed to be a currency/"money", and it's far less efficient as such.  It was engineered for a completely different purpose - smart contracts ("dapps").  It'll do fine, I imagine, in its own right, but people jumping on that bandwagon super late with absurd expectations and no technical knowledge of the project and it's objectives will almost certainly get rekt.    Cheesy Cheesy

10,000x this if Lightning Network "works".   Cheesy Cheesy

100,000x this if RootStock comes to dominate too.   Shocked

lol, who got rekt?

price will rise before it rises higher.


can't you see it happening?

420 is just the beginning

so whats the target price for February ? 500 Huh 600 Huh






i think is stuck range 400 - 500 ... bitcoin is selling the halving .


close... i think 350 to 500 is their range they are stuck in .. #paralyzed #GimpCoin


We gotta take bitcoin prices, one step at a time.  We are in a pretty decent "paralyzed" price range at the moment, especially, if you consider where we were 1 year ago... or even if you consider where we were 3 years ago (now, 2 years ago is another story... hahahahahaha)

Anyhow, back on point>>>> If prices go above $467, then to me it seems pretty likely we are going to break past $500, and if we break past $500, then likely the next major resistance point would be between $550 and $650; however, I am not willing to suggest that we are out of the $400s, even if we were to break into the $500s in the next few weeks.

As far as the downside,  $350 does seem like a pretty strong support level, so at this time, it would take a pretty sizeable amount of FUD to convince people to sell below that price point..... Upper $300s is in striking distance, but even that doesn't seem so likely at the moment...... given our paralysis that currently is largely between $416 and $440 (hovering in the upper end at the moment, and cannot really complain about that - unless you are a Mr. Aztec type or a BJA type or some other whiner that is trying to find reasons to complain).  


Edit:  On a side note, even some of the bears seem a bit more cheerful lately with rising prices... so possibly, the solution to a lot of the various whining is to bring up the price past $555 in order that we can experience a kind of Kumbaya moment.


gimpcoin is paralyzed until either scaling is fixed or obama leaves office. u might could go up but u aint going back down below 300 .. the reason i say 350 cuz they need to feel comfortable. it doesnt matter how u try twist it, gimpcoin remains gimped. it is not going down below 300, and it is unlikely to go above 500. i think i mentioned before that anything above 400 was above profit for my cold storage. i'm in the green on exchange and in cold storage. when i say "paralyzed", i'm not really talking about the price of bitcoin.. i am talking about the LOSS OF POWER that bitcoin is enjoying right now. can't go up, can't go down .. fukd. #paralyzed #GimpCoin


Yeah, it is all good and fun, and you are correct, until you are not.

Yep.. you picked our current price range, and to suggest that it is permanent is an attempt to make FUD and illogical stupid ass assertions out of a price range that currently is in place.

It would be nice to get rid of you, once bitcoin breaks out of this price range, but you are likely just like BJA, and we are not going to have such fortune.  You are merely going to change your lame ass theory to fit the new circumstances and then shill with your new lame framework.... I guess, so long as you are still getting paid for coming up with goofy and out-of-touch wishful fantasies.








go below 300 or above 500... shrug.. until you do u still didn't .

bitcoin is paralyzed because if it goes below 300 i might buy more, and if you go above 500 i'm solid in profits ..

straight up.. #Paralyzed #GimpedCoin

very simple, go below 300 or above 500 and stay awhile. it doesnt matter to me which you do.. go for it.

nah, halving will be a boom, if anything.

So you think. And so EVERYONE thinks. Which means everyone is holding and buying for after the halving. Which means there will be a huge dump after the halving. Which means... Well I think you understood ^^

interesting thought. we'll see, i suppose.

Problem being that in fact you absolutely can't know because of all the parameters... I find the idea interesting but...

Well it's all a bet I suppose. But in the end the price will rise that's for sure!

too many variables, exactly. it's one of the things that keeps me interested around here. unpredictability.



bitcoin is predictable.. the range is $350 to $500 .. thats it. #paralyzed #GimpedCoin



lol prediction still holding ..
