Nah I recall someone had a link to OTC volume a while back. Was pretty long time ago though but it should still exist.

Why is the volume so low on GBTC tho?

[ ... ] It may take the Wall Street idiots a while to figure that out.
They're no match for a fireman from the sticks, granted. Give them time.

Ad Hominem is a logical fallacy. Points for putting "match"' "sticks" and "fireman" in the same sentence.

Billy Joe, though even a cat may look at a king, it's in no position to judge.

"Ad hominem" doesn't apply here. Not attacking your character. It's only reasonable to assume that financial advice of a fireman from the sticks is less likely to be useful than that of those who were educated and work in finance.
Just like it's perfectly reasonable to take medical opinion of a physician over ...oh, let's say "fireman from the sticks."

Price stability means that someone or group is buying net 3600 coins/day. Some one is buying very patiently and it's not just bears deleveraging. More bitcoins in the hands of patient people=bullish.

This is what I'm talking about.
The more of us that buy & hodl, buy & hodl the better, limit supply.
Limit the supply and the big prices will come, especially as we near the next halving summer 2016.
Don't miss the train people, we are going places next year.

Has anyone stopped to consider that the dollar index is down for two months in a row? What this means is that bitcoin is already in a clear bull market (significantly above the 200 day moving average) in almost every fiat currency other than the USD and currencies that are pegged to the dollar.

Just in case you are wondering why there has been no correction for weeks.

It is far to soon to correlate USD and bitcoin to any meaningful degree. Volume is so low globally we can clearly see individual traders footprints..



We don't know that. It could have already started. Correlation is only clear after the fact. What we do know is that, all things being equal, it should correlate at some point.

All things being equal, the price of BTC would drop in other currencies as the dollar weakened if BTC:USD remained constant, so I don't quite understand your comment on how their charts would look more bulish in a weakining dollar scenario (talking purely about effect of FX rates here, nothing else)



The correlation is negative, obviously. Otherwise my argument makes no sense.

The comment makes no sense
Inverse correlation between  $ and BTC price flatters the BTC:USD chart more than that of any other currency as the dollar weakens

My assumption is that BTC:USD is NOT constant, quite the opposite. We're already in a BTC:Euro bull market, for example. I'm basically saying that the market has more upward momentum than the BTC:USD charts are showing. How much more is unknown.

Still not understanding your logic BJA . How can the BTC:EUR chart look more bullish than BTC:USD chart if USD is weakening against the Euro? Hint - it can't  Wink
This is my last reply on the topic.  You can carry believing your false logic if you like, but I'm done trying to help you see the error in your thought process.
Nothing personal - it's just boring now ...

EDIT: That's not meant to come across as hostile  Wink

I am going to join the other posters and agree that your comments do not make any sense.

The correlation is negative, obviously. Otherwise my argument makes no sense. Dollar down= bitcoin up in other currencies. We need diversification of BTC ownership for stability and the market incentives suggest we'll get (or possibly are getting) a relative boost from outside the U.S.

Bitcoin was designed to be a dollar inflation hedge.

@bja Sure. That, and a 15 times larger "market cap" than the next biggest crypto competitor (and I use the term "competitor" very loosely here) are pretty clear signs which horse to bet on right now. I'm just mentioning as well that the best horse in the race currently isn't guaranteed to be the historical champion ... hm... I suck at metaphors.
