It's a shorters pump . Flood the market with a constant stream of coins with borrowed money. Find the bottom. This will be uber painful, but ultimately good for the future. I get the feeling we are about to find the true value of BTC this year.
Hello Palladium... How's this little Easter egg?

i'll be back.
"I am just going outside and may be some time."
Oooh, good one.
Annecdote time: I told my gf about that quote and its context a while ago, and she got really sad about it.
Now, I sometimes just casually drop the line "I'm quickly going to do some groceries, it may be some time", and her eyes almost water up when I say that
(yes, I'm a psycho)
didnt really know about this story, really good read, thanks both for sharing

Quote
In 1911-1912 a British team led by Robert Falcon Scott attempted to be the first humans to reach the South Pole, the most southerly point on Earth situated on the Antarctic continent. They did in fact reach the Pole (on 17 January 1912), but discovered that the Norwegian explorer Amundsen had beaten them to it. The demoralized five-man British team then began the 895-mile (1,440 km) trek back to their base.
They never made it.
Hampered by worsening weather, poor provisioning, injury and frostbite, the team were destined to die en route. Edgar Evans was the first to die (17 February 1912), apparently as the result of a blow to his head when falling into a crevasse. The four remaining men struggled on, slowed by fierce blizzard conditions. And Oates' severely frostbitten and gangrenous feet and general weakness (possibly aggravated by an old war wound) began to hold them back further, so that they could not keep up the daily distances needed to reach provisions before their rations were exhausted. On 15 March Oates told the others that he could not continue, suggesting that they leave him in his sleeping-bag and go on without him. They refused. The following night, according to Scott's diary entry, in the early morning of 16 March 1912, Oates said to his colleagues: "I am just going outside and may be some time." Then, without going through the painful exertion of putting on his boots, he stepped outside into a raging blizzard and temperatures of -40.0 °C (-40 °F) to face certain death.
Oates' self-sacrifice did not save his colleagues from a similar fate. Scott, Wilson and Bowers died nine days later, eleven miles short of their next pre-laid food depot that could have saved their lives.
Oates died a bachelor the day before his 32nd birthday, probably still unaware that he had fathered a child with an 11-year-old Scottish girl when he was about 20, a fact that emerged many years later.
His memorable phrase lives on in the English-speaking world both as among the most famous of last words and as the epitome of heroic understatement and allusion.

I feel dumpers running out of ammo, and shorts will have to cover soon.

Why is bitcoin going down?
The answer is simple -- the coins being sold are Hal Finney's coins.
Think about it.

This means nothing, Hal moved his coins around through many different addresses over the last few years.
Where did you see that? Regardless the BDD is not showing very many old coins moving anyway. I can't imagine Hal left the coins with people he thought would crash something he held in high regards. But I don't know, its your theory, I have no real proof to discount it, nor the desire to analyze the blockchain to see where the coins are currently, have fun.

Has anybody else noticed that on Bitstamp the sellers are mostly small fractional BTC sales while the buyers are in multiple BTC. This tells me that the real money is buying from "scared" small sellers.
I would not call 20, 50, 100, 200, or 250 coin sales as small or fractional. You must have missed a lot of action.

Now, I sometimes just casually drop the line "I'm quickly going to do some groceries, it may be some time", and her eyes almost water up when I say that

Wahahah, there are no Heroes here. However, if satoshi dumped his whole stash at once, bringing the price down to a few cents for the greater good (free coins for a couple of minutes). Well he'd be worthy of that quote heheh
No More Heroes Anymore....

this time next week we will be back to normal insanity in this thread.
Some will have learned the hard way that hedging against unpredictable volatility in crypto is not optional and some will have made good profits.
Either way: life goes on.
