Addicted to HoDLing!
Still alive, thanks so much to everyone for your replies and merits. Good advices given that will help me get through this.

You don't fully realise the seriousness of COVID-19 until you get it. I still don't actually know if what I have is COVID-19, but symptoms point to that direction... Should do a test to find out. Until now I'm confined at home with zero contact with others.

Now on day 4 from onset of symptoms. By day 5-6, and if things get serious, I should be getting shortness of breath, at which point I should be admitted to hospital. If this does not happen, then it may be possible to fight this at home on my own. I hope so.


Sounds like covid. Hate to say this, but I believe in facing reality: Make sure someone has access to your coins. Reason being I have had two people in December die of COVID. Both felt terrible, went to hospital, felt much better in 2 days, talked to me on the phone about how it really sucked, it wasn't the flu and holy fuck what a nightmare including the shits. The next morning both were dead. They go fast after getting "better".

Please take care of yourself and watch this carefully. I hate seeing people die of this completely preventable shit.

I appreciate the post, although it's scary as hell. As I said, you don't fully appreciate the seriousness of the situation until it happens to you. My advice to all is to not get close to people not wearing masks or wearing them improperly. If the situation is such that there is pressure on you to talk or interact with them, just say NO. You may be wearing your mask and everything (as I was), but the issue is not you, it's the ones you come in contact with! So, stay SAFE, take it VERY seriously, and REFUSE to get close to those without proper protection.

On topic, I see we passed the 27k € ($34k) mark, which is just AWESOME! I saw one big but very brief dip, which was quickly absorbed by the buying pressure. It seems that any corrections (big or small) are quickly counteracted by pumps that bring the price back to its "slow" upward course. If we keep going like this, $100k should easily be reached in 2021. Actually, predictions talk about as high as $400k, but for me $100k as a correction-stabilized price for 2021 is more than satisfactory. I'm sure many of us WOers' lives will change when this happens.

Onwards & upwards!

HoDL

I pray the lord we stop at these prices for at least a week.. The rise is accelerating to gut wrenching levels.
Let this bullrun chill out or else we'll blow off top.

Just wow! My current (unrealized) networth places me in the company of the 900 richest people in my country, according to the official statistics. I guess there are some more hodlers like me not counted by that statistic. Anyway, this is a good occasion to celebrate! Cheers mates!

thumbs up, man!
Imagine how high you will get in the list...

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
Convincing?
Barely a dip imo..

Convincing to me would have been to around 25-27k for a little dump.. back to 20 would have been a pretty darn convincing pullback..

That was like nothing..
We didn’t even go down as much as we went up in 1 day..

A good dump would knock off a week of gains, not just the last half day of gains..

TLDR:  A dump for ants was witnessed earlier.

Guys.. Haven’t you been in crypto very long?
This is what crypto does..

Get the fuck out of here.

You believe that we are talking about "crypto" in this thread?  Fuck that amorphous category of nonsense.

We are talking about bitcoin, and many of us could give less than two shits if some shitcoin happened to pump along with bitcoin or be oppositely correlated or have its own pumpening event... who cares...

Let's try to stay focused, at least and don't be using nonsense ambiguous terms in this thread.. because if we are mentioning any coins besides bitcoin in this thread, it should be for the purpose of denigrating them rather than trying to provide some kind of platform for them or to even imply that they might have some kind of equivalence to bitcoin - besides riding off of bitcoin's good will and security. 

Idk wtf you are talking about, nor what kind of authority you think you are.. You aren’t even a HODLr or an experienced trader, imo..

Look whose getting worked up..,. and trying to make some shit up about what I supposedly am not..    Shocked Shocked Shocked

Making hardly any sense with such emotions, too.

This is crypto,

 I already addressed this.  Hopefully, you can attempt to learn what the fuck you are talking about... using such an amorphous term...

Get a fucking grip.

it goes up, and it goes down,

What is "it"? 

It here happens to be bitcoin, if you want to attempt to be on topic and not expressing amorphous dweeb nonsense.
 

and these tiny little downs in BTC lately are pullbacks for ants..

O.k.... at least your referring to bitcoin.. that's a good start.   Wink

How has your selling been going?

 I have a system in which I started selling around $250.. and it works pretty damned well if I do say so my lil selfie.

I wasn’t talking about any altcoins, but I would if I wanted to..

 Yes.. no one (including yours truly) is going to stop you from talking about altcoins if you were to so choose.. just call you a dweeb (and maybe a few other names), that's all.

Like.. I happen to think Doge and XMR are pretty cool too.. But I’m a Bitcoin believer..

 good for you.

Calm yourself..

Hm? Well, I am not really feeling uncalm in any kind of way.. except perhaps a bit ciiiitttteeee about dee corns..

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
Remember what a thrill it was to reach your first million dollars in Bitcoin?

"I don't get out of bed for less than $10,000 a day."
-Linda Evangelista


Oh yeah, well...

"Having my net worth increase by seven digits in my sleep doesn't even phase me any more."
-Bob Lawblaw


Yeah but, ya' know, it's all relative. Just imagine how Loaded feels.

Sure, it is relative to consider how BIG the numbers can be in terms of how much is being made in a very short time, and sometimes it will end up going down faster than it had gone up.

I am in the same boat in terms of what some guys (and perhaps gal) are feeling in terms of the strict quantity being made in a short time whether we are measuring hours or days or weeks as being higher than it ever has been, and I was kind of chilling even when we were losing value in the $10ks . and sure even though many of us (including yours truly) had been feeling decently nervous during our correction of one or two days from about $7,500 down to $3,850... So even if we have similar quantities of BTC as we had at those lower prices, we are likely getting some feelings of higher assurances that 4 digits is becoming quite likely not to be reached again, and even sub $20k is starting to feel like it might be a bit of a stretch to have that level of a plunge, in these times.. down to $20k would be about a 42% plunge given our current local top - as I type - of $34,719.

Onwards and upwards we go!

I voted sideways in the poll.

But honey badger seems to want to just eat my buddy sidewinder for lunch Grin

Your "buddy" sidewinder doesn't know shit.. and been wrong since about $10k, more or less.  #nohomo.

@ JJG #557483

Just trimmed a tiny bit of BTC today.  Nice that I can do it for CA$H.

Your advice and acceptance of selling on spikes is very rational for those at my BTC level of knowledge or less.

*   *   *

Carry on, all.  

BTC moons, Gold/Bearing/BTC guy benefits nicely too.  (I'll pass re alts)

Thanks... yes.. you are referring to this post.. (post number already has changed)

I try NOT to be rigid about any of these kinds of matters but there tends to be considerable value in making a plan and then attempting to stick with such plan, but not so rigid as to having to stick with it because we each have discretion over our own funds and how we manage such funds and we should be able to change or tweak our plans along the way.. without necessarily getting caught in the emotional hype of the moment (including BTC price moves that might start to feel outrageous).

Another thing that I attempt to emphasize is some kind of incrementalism that does not involve selling very much at any given time but be willing to never have the opportunity to buy back with whatever value that you had sold... Sure, if you get lucky, and you are able to buy back at a lower price, fine.. but you should be able to live with the fact that once you sell, you may well not be able to buy back at a lower price.

Wonder when the day will come when it's reasonable to consolidate all the dust transactions into one address.

Loyce has a thread where he mentions when fees are low enough to perform such a feat:

Mempool is currently as clean as a suntanned asshole (6 sat/byte recommended)... unreal.

right now btc price in USD made a clear new ATH at $34182 but in € it barely reached the ATH from last night. currently sitting at €27000. something does not add up. with the official €/$ exchange rate (1.21) price in € should be at €28000. sending btc to bitstamp and doing some arbitrage rounds would make €1000 profit per turn. i am not doing it since it will fuck up the 1 year hodl period for my coins (tax excempt when hodling btc for more than 12 months) price has risen $4000 in 24 hrs but only €2800. i guess USD is tanking but since it is sunday not officially traded?

Confirmed, noticed that too. Roll Eyes

It actually went multiple times between €22k and €25k, whilst around $31k on Bitstamp.

Yeah it’ll probably retrace, but the important part is that it cleared the books/cleared a path to where it is now..
The higher the path it clears the better.. I hope it spikes and clears the books to infinity even if it dumps back to 25k..

Seems like you are talking about bitcoin in this portion.. not some stupid-ass amorphous concept.. amInotrite?

Wipes all those old sell orders out of the books, so if/when it goes back down, it only needs to break the NEW orders to get back there..

How many new sell orders are happening vs buys? Upward buying pressure?
We are good dudes calm down..

Sure, upwards buying pressure seems to be continuing and ongoing in bitcoin.. and sure it is likely going to continue, until it stops.. I don't proclaim to have any kind of meaningful clue concerning when it might run out of steam.. and surely we have known since about $12k in early October that it could correct BIG and long at any time, and it really has not.. except for a few relatively minor corrections along the way since September/October.
