It already happened over a week ago on the weighted averages.
and if you look to other "not so laging MA" like adam hull MA the cross was in 12 October but most ppl use SMA so they will react to that

If you are referring to a doji alas "death cross" that just indicates the end of a trend. How can you say it's the end of an uptrend... where is the uptrend right now I can't see it.
Unless you are referring to the long term trend...
Are you saying we are going below 2?

there is no doji death cross is doji gravestone

maybe, 5 usd/btc is more likely It already happened over a week ago on the weighted averages.

death cross is down thanks, i was unclear about what direction that might indicate

As a miner i am glad still above 10.
If i was a speculator i would be shocked if still above 10 by christmas.
If i was a speculator i would be shocked if still above 10 by christmas.
i guess miners make for poor speculators then, i see that as a good sign
It's hard to forget that every coin at some point belongs to a miner, I'm disappointed in you.
when miners sell thinking " muahahah FREE MONEY ... minus electric bill i made profit
", I lolI think miners are more pragmatic and logical then speculators. I say this through reading many many mining threads that a lot of miners do not see the huge value with btc in current bitcoin economy. We suck usd out non stop and never bring it back. This is prob due to us seeing it as a speculative business that requires roi, fixed costs, hardware assets, etc... People who buy btc to hopefully sell for more later are just looking for the bigger fool. Sounds harsh but it is basically true. We have a plan if btc fails by selling assets and know we wont lose everything. speculators in btc, not necessarily traders, those true believers may very well ride it down to pennies on the dollar. Or it could goto the moon. Miners want a fair return on investment and do not shoot for the moon. We are more reasonable and calculated based on possible outcomes.
So saying we are poor speculators is untrue. The amount of money i put in and my return is probably greater then yours. The turtle, boring turtle, can win the race over the rabid speculative rabbit.
:-)
what is the "current bitcoin economy"
did you factor in the 60 bitcoin i send as payment to my dad?
how about the 1 bitcoin i traded for 1 gram of weed?
how could you know, these trades never and will probably never hit the exchange, a lot of my trades didn't even hit the blockchain (Casascius coins to buy into friendly poker games).
I think everyone is totally underestimating the economy, because its not very big, and its spared thin through out the globe. So from any small shop's perceptive, bitcoin economy is very small, but small things add up quick ...
Small? It is tiny when one gambling site can make up a significant portion of transactions per day. Another good chunk of those transactions are pools, miners, and exchanges. What is left really? About 10k other transactions which still are mostly nothing much to get excited about. Lets be generous and say another 5k of transactions off the blockchain. So after all this time we are still at the point of 15k transactions per day yet somehow btc is worth 11ish each? Insanity. 5 is still too high. 10 million plus btc mined times 11 usd and we see 15k of transactions?
In my opinion 3000 transaction per day of quality examples of bitcoins use take place. 3 measily thousand.
And by quality i mean no silk road, no gambling, no pools, miners, exchanges, shuffling btc around to diff wallets, mixing stolen btc, testing/experimenting, speculation etc... by quality i mean selling legal goods, pay for hire, etc...
So yea... i do not see a huge value and others do too. So far the growth of transactions has been in areas that are disappointing to say the least.
But hey.... As long as i can make a buck i am cool with it.
3000 transactions minus all the stuff you listed? I think that's being very, very generous. To be honest, I'd be surprised to learn it's more than 1000.
Why do you exclude real world goods and services that provide real value, like SR-txs, gambling, exchanging BTC for other currencies and even speculation and mining adds value to the system (liquidity for the markets and security for the network), not to speak of the others, that you nonchalantly excluded from your count. They are real txs because people care and derive value from them, so the do "count" and justify the price to some extent.
What makes up the current price is mainly speculation based on assumptions of future value. To give an example that hinges on the fact that I compare apples with pears: Most stocks are valued 5-20 times their yearly ROI by means of market capitalization (stock prize*all stocks in circulation). With companies like facebook that are overhyped its even 50-100 times that.
In case of bitcoin's value it would be something like 24 times the 5M BTC that are exchanged on a daily bases, which equals its market cap (11.XX USD*10.4M BTC) of 120M USD.
Someone who feels up to the challenge may correct this feeble calculation (probably chuck some more factors in, like coin velocity and amount of lost coins,..)
Are you overlooking the value of having inaccessible money? Having secure funds locked away safely is a pretty good value in and of itself. So in calculating how much BTC is worth, perhaps you have to add in how much you would need to pay to otherwise put some money/gold/etc... somewhere that was impossible for the government/army/dictator/bankrobbers to get to.
That's a pretty valuable service in an of itself.
That's a pretty valuable service in an of itself.
so let me get this right...
you think we need to have 10million BTC transacted every single day in the economy to support 10$?

If i had more time and were sufficiently awake i may be able to adequately surmise all of the fail in this sentence, but alas i am off to get drunk on a boat. For now i will say this. Who is the authority on what is legal? Why? What defines "quality" use? As long as you can make a buck? How does one condescend and condone in the same paragraph?
Edit: I would also add this http://blockchain.info/charts/miners-operating-profit-margin. $5 btc would = operating at a loss for miners, reducing the strength of the network. Look at both sides of the coin.

I would advise all my bullish friends to practice patience and caution, we are likely to be hovering at these price for a long time, do not jump the gun, we all need to work together to make The Squeeze work well.
You told a squeeze? Hmm .. The only true observation I made at the time of reading this forum - if all say "up, all the bulls, the squeeze, the moon, and so on" - then the only correct decision - to sell I would advise all my bullish friends to practice patience and caution, we are likely to be hovering at these price for a long time, do not jump the gun, we all need to work together to make The Squeeze work well.

About a month ago I got to pay someone in Japan with bitcoins. I never thought I would meet anybody else who would take bitcoins, but I did. That is why I feel the bitcoin project will succeed, and that its just going to take some time.
