A 22-year-old currency trader is selling his grandparents’ house for as many Bitcoins as he can get his hands on.
Taylor More put the listing up for the family home (pictured above) in Alberta, Canada, several days ago. He told me that the property is worth about $395,000, according to a realtor appraisal.

Top Top TOP!

Troplolol!

Typical ponzi couch-investor. As rule, they used to stay without property and money at the end. Goof - its a fate.

An economy around it??? I thought bitcoins where used to sit on them until your ass hurt or until you are rich...

Fortunately the black market alone will find many uses for Bitcoin, even if the white market for some reason fails.

I wonder if the crack dealer in my hometown knows what bitcoin is... :/

"You wanna buy some crack?"

"No I want to tell you about Bitcoin."

Litecoin clearly topped on the 20th, and has been crashing. In fact, all the alt coins seem to have followed the same script. I think this is important - it means the speculative juices have maxxed out on those markets. Bitcoin is bigger and taking longer, but I fail to see why it won't eventually follow suit.

I disagree. When BTC is looking temporarily weak, speculators will turn to LTC, and vice versa. LTC is performing poorly because there are too many gains to be had in BTC right now, not due to overall speculator appetite.

Another interesting thing that I've noticed is this tendency for people to claim that "bitcoin does well when bad things happen in the world". This same argument has been used for gold. And yet, so far, the charts tell the opposite story: bitcoin does well when stocks and general financial speculation are high (such as the high in 2011, which perfectly matched the high in the US small caps/large caps ratio), and goes down when speculative fever does. So far when the economy worsens, people want cash, and not gold or bitcoins.

Things could change for sure, but I'm just pointing out the hard, cold evidence thus far doesn't match the kinds of fundamental arguments I'm hearing based on past market activity. They sure sound good and logical on paper though, I won't argue with that

You can't buy shit with Litecoin or any altcoin.
Bitcoin actually has an economy based around it (albeit, still somewhat fledgling).

Litecoin is not that kind of indicator, since it's main purpose is to buy bitcoin. Litecoin cannot be stable unless bitcoin is stable. Also, litecoin value is highly manipulated by its whales.

Some short term counter-trend formation. May be considered as a bull flag as price didn't leave acceleration channel so far

It's funny how the exact same psychological/sentiment backdrop runs through people in different markets at the same time. Euphoria always gives way to fear...
note that there can be one more spike on the SP500 just to test the ATH but any drop below 1535 can be a good confirmation for shorts

Agreed. Right now most wavers I've asked say it still looks like a small fourth wave that may give way to another ATH, but in that case we're still very close to a major top. Obviously I'm leaning towards the interpreting that the top is already in, but the next week or two and the market should yield its hand.

But this is run out of standard deviations, so i think its a local top



Cool. This is perfectly in line with where I think stocks are poised, except in their case I think the top is already in as of a few days ago.

I'm coming to believe that the only real option is to hold long term and just wait and see what happens.
there is allot of trades u can do on simple dont go against the trend sell at daily R3 R 4 buy at daily R1-PP kinda does the trick
