EDIT: Em, if you haven't already, you should read this post by AnonyMint --
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.8649126 -- I think this provides some more substantial reasoning as to why getting fund managers involved in the BTC eco-system will eventually lead to disaster.

So AnonyMint claims a couple of things here:

-Bitcoin was created by the NWO to lure in techno-libertarians/anarchists; soon it will be slammed down by ETFs and other mainstream investment vehicles. There is no evidence of this except what can be assumed and extrapolated from other conspiratorial evidence, which is not without merit but is often... dubious.

-Bitcoin's adoption will slow because it has exhausted its demographics. If innovation continues, it will open up other adoption avenues, right? Not just the basement-dwelling libertarians who surf the internet all day? There seems to be a whole world out there that likes money and might enjoy using a digital ownership protocol.

His first post on this forum was suggesting how Bitcoin could change to reflect his expert analysis of its flaws. I have a hard time taking a doomsdayer with a self-professed IQ of 160 (or something like that) very seriously. I think he takes himself pretty seriously, but I had to unignore him to read his post. I perform with egotistical, self-righteous people all day, on and off the stage, and I cannot abide the narrow "all about me" attitude. It gets old real fast.

Does betting a kidney qualify for "blood in the streets"?  Grin IMO, it's really bullish! Grin

I think only if I lose... I'll have to consult the oracle about that, though.

Google market cap is almost 400.000.000.000,00 USD, so when BTC value will be equal to walue of
Google, BTC value will be approx. 28.000 USD

I find myself visiting this forum just to cheer myself up.
All those desperate posts about a rise that will beging anyminute now and how manipulation is causing the lack of buying interest.
I know that it's kind of cruel, but I can't help myself. Desperation among the get-rich-quick folks is humorous in a classical sense :-)

Trading pattern on Stamp for the past 6 hours:
1. Small and incremental buying of less than 0.5 BTC with occasional medium-size buy of less than 10 BTC
2. Sudden huge sell of more than 50 BTC, followed by small sells.

Unsubstantiated conclusion: Deliberate and possibly concerted manipulation among the big boys to keep the price down.

Where can I get historic data series of Bitcoin prices?

You can download price data from bitcoincharts.com, in various time steps (although for the smaller time steps you an get only a couple of days at a time).   But, las time I looked, they didn't list Huobi or OKCoin.

I downloaded from them several chunks of data about several exchanges in several epochs.  Let me know if you you are interested.

You can download Huobi's individual trade data from https://github.com/huobi/btc-trade-result-history

I guess we're due to see some volume, whichever way it goes.

People learn and recognize patterns. Spending 20 minutes looking at the 30 minutes charts for the last month should convince anyone.  I wish there was a site that would also show the buy/sell action, order by order, during a specified candle, as well.

Yesterday, we had the 2k wall and only a tiny dump (600 coins?), apparently because no big guys followed his lead.  Everyone remembers what happened nearly every day since June, especially the massacre at 500.  As soon as they buy and the trend is up, 1000 coins are market dropped on the market and they are sitting at a loss.

I suspect that it would take a 5 days to a week with no major dumps before buyers get any confidence that it is safe to buy.  Until that occurs, down we go.
I want to be convinced  Smiley What specifically should I look for?
