Here I am in the Wall Observer thread in November 2020, when for the first time in quite a while, it seems there's some significant Walls to Observe.

Lots of folks wanting to cash in now that we're near ATHs again it seems ^_^

Completely understandable. People that bought near the top of the last rally are finally in the green again, so they might be looking to get off the roller-coaster.

My ex wife bought near the ATH a few years ago due to FOMO.  I'm sure she has long since forgot about her coins.  I've been contemplating if I should tell her to check (resulting in instant selling) or do her a favor and not mention anything to her...

#MoralDelema

Surely sounds like an outlier case to buy and to completely ignore for nearly 3 years.

We are talking about someone who loses about one phone a year and can't find her car in a parking lot during the day time...

Ex wife update:

The non follower has discovered the recent rise in BTC.  Called me to see how she can sell her bitcoin.  #LooseHands

Last week we heard rumors that the U.S. Treasury and Secretary Mnuchin were planning to rush out some new regulation regarding self-hosted crypto wallets before the end of his term. I'm concerned that this would have unintended side effects, and wanted to share those concerns.
So trumpster is shooting down anything he can before his last exit out of the white house.
The last hurray as some would say.. to endure his legacy. Roll Eyes

So in essence firing and pardoning his cronies is not enough now he has to make sure bitcoin: the anti-corporate currency, does not make it pass stocks and gold on his last day in office? Tongue
F-dat man.

 Plenty of VPN options to choose from, but otherwise I expect that Bitcoin, and all other cryptocurrencies will go on without them.

I'm not entirely sure what he means by "self-hosted crypto wallets" but if it means what I think it means, fuck that.

"Oi! You got a license for that there Titcoin wallet?"

(Titcoin is my go-to when thinking up an obscure shitcoin on the spot.)

Not a bad thing at all. Miner dominance(s) should change to the better. If it's even true.

 Possibly China fud?  There was a thread started last week "China cracking down again on bitcoin mining" which contained a link to a png file.  The document looks similar to other "official" Chinese gov't edicts but this one did not have the official stamp so I disregarded the information.  I did however OCR the image and put it through various translation services to see what it had to say.

Google translator:

edit:
 It kind of jives with this:

https://www.coindesk.com/bitcoins-rally-supply-crunch-in-china

edit2: tl;dr
Chinese miners, who control over 70% of bitcoin’s hashrate or mining power, have been facing challenges liquidating their crypto holdings for cash because many are finding their bank accounts and cards frozen as a part of the Chinese government’s nationwide crackdown on telecommunications fraud and money laundering via cryptocurrency deals.

okay, maybe I OCD'd it rather than simply OCR'ing it.

Nice to see Trump wait for Thanksgiving Day to bury the news of the pardon he granted to Michael Flynn

I can't wait to see him try and pardon himself.
Even if it works, that only applies to federal crimes.
He is in a heap of shit for state crimes.  His immunity runs out on Jan 21, 2021 at noon.
Pass the popcorn please...

I don't know what you guys want!
He truly made america great again, by losing the elections and getting removed.
So in the end, he achieved what he stupidly promised, didn't he?  Cheesy

lol

It’s a great Bitcoin tradition to have a crash on Thanksgiving Day and then largely recover within a week.

I think everybody in politics is just waiting for him to leave the scene.
They'll let him pass. Maybe some day we'll quote "Trump didn't hang himself"?
