Had sell order on $273.5 and pulled it in the last second

FOR FUCKS SAKE... always this same shit

Don't know if appropriate, but your post made me LMAO.
Probably because I'm experiencing the same shit.
I just closed my eyes and bought. Hoping for the best.

...one year of bear market (never happened before)...

June 2011 to February 2013 was less than a year?

Jimbo 2012 went from under $5 to over 12, I know because I started researching it around June around $5ish, I studied up on it a little and kept telling my wife this is big, then looked at price and it was nearly $7. I figured I would by when it came down a little because it had risen so fast (I thought). December it was over $12, I said ###K IT and started buying.

2012 was only a bear market in "bitcoinland".

I can imagine a world where people are free from oppressive capital controls and where truly free markets can exist.

Maybe it's all a fantasy, but I prefer that fantasy over the increasing centralization of power and control that is happening all around us.

Thanks NLC, escapism is exactly what I'm looking for. An escape from corrupt government controlled by the central banking cartel.

And now, I think I'll escape this thread for a while. See you at 250 Tongue

does anyone else experience this 'gray rectangle' problem?

it occurs only in this thread as far as I can tell.
looks like some chrome bug in relation to images.

I have a similar problem but the grey part is at the bottom instead of to the right. I use Fedora on Linux, but the problem only occurs in this forum.

The bug appared when the forum started using an image service (imgur) to store and "sanitize" images. It may have to do with the size of the file and the speed of the internet connection to the source where the image is uploaded from; basically there is an insufficient timeout somewhere along that path, and the file gets truncated. Reducing the image size usually helps. Try saving as JPEG format with quality 80 or less; it may get a bit fuzzy, but then you can wrap it in a link to the full version.

It is rumoured than, when the bitcoin price will reach 10'000 USD, the admins will be able to afford to hire a teenage programmer to fix this bug (and re-enable the uploading of avatars).

IT'S A LINUX BUG, mr Stolfi

Linux bug planted by the NSA Wink

More specifically a Chrome on Linux OS bug, no sign of it on Windows. It's also not just missing parts of the image, it's also blocking text content and they move.

But only bitcoiners experience this problem. Oh, and trolls.

Easy fix is to ignore NotLambchop.

EDIT: Hmmm, now I'm having doubts, perhaps it's only a Chrome bug and I just didn't experience it anymore because I ignored NotLambchop.
Either way there's an easy fix.

I was experiencing this too some weeks ago. Now i dont. Chrome on Ubuntu btw...

Did you apply the same fix for the Brony Bug?

This is suggesting a price of $5k in just a few months

Can you imagine that?... doesn't seem very realistic at this point

Its a good noble goal but in the world we live, its also a pipedream. The road to true freedom is littered with corpses of idealists.

Short interest a hair away from 20,000 contracts on bfxdata. Over 3000 new shorts today. Retest 300 soon.

Still 1/4 of the USD worth of longs...

Is it not worrying to you that one of the reasons we should pump is just a temporary short squeeze (that might not even happen at all)?
Is that the reason people should buy bitcoin at this price after having seen this crash? Because of a short squeeze?

This 'crash' is someone dumping through support in a thin market on a weekend - using a lot of borrowed coins to do so.

Those 20k shorts on finex have to be bought back.

Bitcoin is a highly speculative long term play. Why should anyone buy in now? Well the price is 75% down from the recent ATH. It has been supported at levels far higher than this for over a year. It may be pushed lower, just means I get to buy more each month!

Serious question:

What's the "fair price" of one bitcoin? and how do you arrive to that conclusion?

Depends on how many people use it and the average dollar value of their purchases.

that was the only approximately legit reply so far

After 6 years Bitcoin is still as primitive and hard to use as day 1. 100's of millions are put into it and we can't even make it look more simple (like a paypal system for instance). People don't like it and don't to use it. That is the reality. It failed. It's that simple. Once the traders are done raping it it will be over. A new and better system will take over.

not sure why your here......CIA perhaps ?

Yeah though I'm a long term believer in bitcoin, I think Bitcoin has to die first to get reborn from the ashes of the old and fallen.

Depends on how many people use it and the average dollar value of their purchases. Balmer couldnt have bought the LA Clippers in bitcoins because there just aint enough of it to cover his $2B purchase. Moreover the moron selling it couldnt have easily converted it to fiat to pay off his daily dose of whoring

I'd be happily using bitcoin as a medium of exchange but it's losing value so quick that, unless transactions happen in the order of minutes at most, it dissipates any possible benefit or usefulness even for that.

June 2011 to February 2013 was less than a year?

June 2011 to November 2011, that was the bear market. The rest until 2013 was a slow bull market, until Markus stepped in.

PS. I can't believe this! You beat me by a second. Cheesy
