I smell $600
May 27, 2014, 11:20:29 PM
Another dump soon?
What's so special about 580-600 that we can't cross it?

$560 is support level imo. We busted the long term down trend at $480 and smashed though $560 pretty readily. There has been some resistance to $600, testing twice, but the market is at odds so we are going sideways. Next resistance point $625 so if we stay above $560 and consolidate we should see another move up.

Huge surge in thread pages -- next stop 7000 
I think we are going to hit an thread page count ATH in the next 3 days ...very bullish on thread page count
I'm extremely bullish on this thread's page count. To the moon!!
I dunno. Remember the goat incident? The Great Page Count Crash of 2014. But...magic monkey refuses to comment on page counts. Since Monkey mostly only does reversals, that's pro-trend.

Can someone make a browser plugin or something that will completely remove that Stolfi guy his name and posts?

1. Since the last post BY @JorgeStolfi some six hours and four pages ago, there may have been 30 posts ABOUT @JorgeStolfi. I am flattered and moved. Sorry @fonzie, but as the poet wrote
Cesse tudo o que a antiga Musa canta
Que outro valor mais alto se alevanta
2. Thanks again for the offer, but I would rather not have any bitcoins, and I do not intend to help distributing bitcoins to anyone, my students or not. I am sure you will find charities or other worthy projects that will make much better use of the money.
3. I got to 65k tweets before knowing about bitcoin; mostly on politics, a bit of thechnology, humor, etc. I was looking forward to commemorate my 65535th tweet, but then Twitter switched to the approximate "65K" count format. Darn. But I was bored of politics anyway and decided to take a long twitter vacation. By the way, it was through Twitter (specifically @falkvinge's tweets) that I first learned of bitcoin. Since December I have been mostly wasting the stolen taxpayer's money here instead, using twitter only once in a while to warn people about bitcoin.
4. Why do people assume that I "still do not understand" bitcoin? In my view, it is the shrillest bitcoin enthusiasts who do not understand much about it and how the world works. Like those who still claim that bitcoin will let people evade taxes and buy illegal things, or that bitcoin is a safer investment than plain cash, or that China is irrelevant, or that the volume in the blockchain shows that people are using bitcoin --- or that the right technology, by itself, can save people from corrupt politicians and greedy bankers.

Could you post in point form (as you have done above) why you are skeptical on the long term success of bitcoin? I have seen you criticizing bitcoin but other than saying its success is limited, you do not seem to say why. It would be insightful to understand the reasons of failure from your point of view.

I really want the bitcoin price to skyrocket. I am saving up for a triple monitor setup and right now i have ~0.23 BTC, and I want the price to be at LEAST 1000$ when I cash out, until then, I won't be cashing out, and I will be left with less money to spend...
0.23BTC @ 1000$ won't even buy you 1 really good monitor. Why would you need 3 monitors to watch the price?
350 dollars or so will buy you an amazing 27 inch screen. The same one Apple fanboys pay a 1000 dollars for.

So you need it to be more like $4000.
Sounds like he just needs more bitcoin.
nah, this is where deflationary currency meets deflationary products.
deflationary products:
"you mean to tell me, that I can buy a TV that's twice as good (4K or whatever) next year for the same price as this piece of crap you want to sell me today?
deflationary currency:
"and now you're trying to tell me that the thousand bucks I spent last year on that piece of crap TV is now worth ten thousand?!?!???"
ah whatever, it's a crappy metaphor, it seemed cool when I started typing, I guess that happens when you're drunk and you think all your thoughts are worth posting.

Its obviously a W bottom - will breakout soon
chart?
the bounce up from the 550/551 level seems like a correction to me. looks like we might head down from here. what do you guys think?
If you are NOT trolling, you seem to be too short term, in your thinking/charting.
i am saying that the bounce = corrective in formation. this suggests that the dominant direction is down. it has nothing to do with short term/long term, but rather the formation of the waves.

You are likely more of an expert than me about the short-term technicals, and I tend to be more interested in the longer-term trends, b/c the short term seems to be all over the place.... and the price has been down for so long, I am of the belief that there is quite a bit of pent up demand - so long as people begin to sense that the price is going up.... but yes, I agree that there may be some ambiguity, especially depending upon the length of time of the chart's snapshot.
For me, if the odds appear greater than NOT that the price will go down, I may wait to buy, but I may NOT sell unless it seems fairly certain for a 8-10% downward movement.... So what to do, would depend upon confidence level, and I do NOT consider myself a trader... except maybe for the big trends.

I don't give advice, but I would wait until at least 2000, but that's just me.

cheers stolfi.
I was always wondering if old dogs could learn new tricks.
Now I realize that they can't, and that the new tricks must be beaten into them.
I hope that your own personal transition from the old system into the new one is not too bumpy.

Huge surge in thread pages -- next stop 7000
I think we are going to hit an thread page count ATH in the next 3 days ...very bullish on thread page count
Maybe we'll achieve thread page parity this summer
We can only hope as I am saving up for a professional thread page counter I have on pre-order
