I can complete your delusional idea to clarify that from your perspective, MTGOX remains as the "final" hurdle.
It is funny (or maybe "strange" is a better word?) how someone who has been in bitcoin for so long, can get so distracted by nonsensical thoughts, and surely this MTGOX obsession is not the first nonsensical thought I have witnessed flowing out of your keyboard (if that might be the source?).
It’s pretty common sense that mtgox is the final thing keeping the market down. You’d have to have 0 background in finance to not understand that. Germany sent the market from 67 to 53. Gox will see more BTC than that hit the market. Luckily, it will be a profit taking event for Blackrock and others who have amassed a near 10 billion dollar short position (that will determine when we moon) which should ease the pain a bit. Then you have FTX billions being returned to crypto folks before the end of the year. So while I am by no means bearish, I’m not going to pretend mtgox doesn’t exist. It’s weird you and some others here do. I think it stems from a misguided belief that this thread has some sort of an effect on the market in order to feel like your words have some sort of relevance. That’s what I think is a nonsensical thought.
It appears that we have differing opinions about what are nonsensical thoughts.
Who would-a-thunk?
I could afford a cyber truck too, but I am not going to buy one. If I were to buy an all electric truck, I probably would prefer an Ford F-150 (electrical) or maybe I would prefer a hybrid.. I am not too excited about some of the seeming pushes for all electric, and it seems that commercial airlines would not be able to fly if they were all electric, so there are some problematic aspects around all electric, including problems with real warm or real cold temperatures, too...
Very little comment on what will or will not happen regarding the price, but that guy:
1. Has a linear logic model
2. Thinks that his equivalent of China-ban hammer will "hammer" every time there is a $100 mil release/day. Comment: the champaigne cork pops if you hold it tight, but makes just a small noise if the cork is being moved slightly to the side, releasing the pressure.
3. In my mind MtGox is akin to something like a bitcoin burp.
4. His "financial" background is what prevents him to see the WHOLE picture.
That said, his 38K "potential" target was somewhat logical if you look at the charts and would represent a double bottom to a January "ETF dip".
If that happens (chances are maybe 5-10% and declining rapidly), I would convert half of my money market fund in IRAs to bitcoin ETFs for a quick pop (since no cap gains).
EDIT: Completely agree on the cybertruck..a silly car, imho.
I respect the opposite opinion, but it's just not for me. If it could also fly interstellar, than it would be a different story
