Shocked  Shocked  Shocked

Oh wow. So much happening right now...

First, as confirmed above, big time trader 'loaded' arrested in China (source), and now, another well known player, forum user rpietila arrested in Finland (source -- they basically call him "the Finnish Charlie Schrem").

This isn't good. Not good at all.



Just read the finnish news, it says nothing of what you're claiming. Stop fuding around!

Everyone disappointed here, was expecting big boom today but it is still downside/sideways movement.

Bitcoin is disappointing us negatively this week.
The poll still seems rather bullish!

OK.. so some very ugly guestimation calculations...

the USMS says they got 60+ bids ... at 3,000 BTC per block that is a demand for 60* 3k = 180,000 coins....

Lets assume that 75% of those bids were bottom feeders, only interested in turning a quick buck by flipping the coins if they were to go below market... 180k/4 = 45,000 coins with *real* demand behind them....

as there were only 30k coins in the auction,  45k - 30k = 15k deficit.

So, after the auction, we have a pent up demand for approximately 15,000 coins by people we know have the money already allocated for BTC purchases

Could be a very good next couple of days....

Sigg

Those are no ugly estimations.
They are trully beautiful.

Hope none of the buyers is a bloody dumper.

Are you kidding? It couldn't get farther from the truth. There's been major dips and steep climbs in that time.

$650 seems to be spot on however.

Well... at least it was slow.
The unsteadiness was all news related, so harder to predict.

Wait, we playing 'who predicted the bestest'? I'll necro this one one more time...


Agreed. $600 within reach (<12h).

Then: rally time to 650, maybe higher, touching 700?

Then then: falling back below 640, and eventually re-testing 530.


So say we all? So say we all! Cheesy


Where "touching 700" ended up as $683, and "re-testing 530" as $538. Close enough, no?

Not bad at all, congrats!
Any more predictions to make you right in the future? Smiley

One buyer is very bullish.  It means the sale price was likely higher than most anticipated.
It means only that one buyer with deep pockets was less greedy than all the others.  They may all have bid at 475$, and he bid 480$  Grin

EDIT: typo, 460 --> 480


It is unlikely that this buyer bid just $5 higher than the rest and won *all* the blocks. My guess is they bid at least $100-200 higher than market across the board.

What makes you think that $475 was the second highest bid?

$475 was the second lowest bid, most bids were above market price, winner had bid alot more and proof of that is that he managed to buy all the blocks.

Some of those losing bidders after placing a 10% premium bid realized the bargain offered by the yesterday's prices on the exchanges so they hurried up and bought up to their USMS bid, and were soon followed by panic buyers Smiley

Doubt that the second highest bid was also below market price.
I think it was at market price the lowest.

I think it was at market price the lowest.
I think there were a couple of bidders who didn't knew what competition they were up to and thought they'll make a blast deal by bidding ~$450 and later dumping on the exchanges(one bidder publicly admitted a ~$440 bid on all blocks). Their competition however were true bitcoiners whose plan weren't to dump but instead were looking for a secure & private deal which USMS auction provided, as proof we still don't know who won and most likely will never know.

A thousand apologies maok! I misread "second lowest" for "second highest".
Then I completely agree with you. As you say, for sure some innocents bid to try and win the lottery.
Thankfully the auction was full of veterans as well, to protect us from those ignorant dumpers Smiley

Well it's a bit different cause there was no big crash like when silkroad closed. November was my first bubble, and I started feeling really bored. Then price started to go up. Few dollars each day. Then like 10 bucks per day, and I was thinking 'holy shee!'.
Then came a week when everyday I woke up to a new 3 digit level.

wow that must feel amazing! i bet you lept out of bed every morning the second you knew you were awake, like i mean standing before you opened your eyes, to run and check the price lol (or just grab your smart phone if ya had one at the time) lol i know i would, not sure if i could sleep actually if that started happening. daily life would revolve around watching btc rise. who needs showers when your making a fortune sitting on the couch in your thong spider man briefs boxers.

Orchestrated by gox inhouse bots Smiley Read the willyreport. Can't refute facts.

edit: Break 655 tonight? LOL you need to stay away from trading.

Willy might have helped, but I can't believe it singlehandedly caused the whole bubble.
Also because there were other bubbles before November.

but 10K is easily attainable really... small % of gold looks to buy bitcoin and vola!

Yep, I guess we won't arrive to 10K during the next bubble.

This situation is unique. It's the first time we see the Bitcoin market behave like this.
As i said it turned into a pump and dump coin.
That's why i'm out. This won't change anytime soon either.


Oh c'mon, do you really think pumping and dumping will afect the long term course? I think it will only mean a few extra waves here and there.

To my knowledge, the bitcoin market didn't really have the ability to short before Nov 2013 because no exchanges offered it.  Now it's everywhere.  To me, this is the biggest problem now... no one trusts that an uptrend is real, believing that it's just a short term pump (in order to short at the top) or simply a short squeeze that's causing an artificial rise.  We can't see any true demand buying.

I think shorting has affected things for sure.  I think it might take rallies longer to start because of it.  As the price inches upwards the shorters will try to take advantage of that and dump.  However, the momentum will at some point take over and because of that I would be very cautious.  If the market decides to rally I don't believe anything can keep the price down.

I really hope you're right, and that we find it out soon Smiley

really the truth of the matter is anything under $300 is still a great buy.

Exactly.



I don't think you are factoring in the Four Punch Raiders. These guys make the order book their bitch. The bear market likely isn't over until after the next short squeeze and then later a failed attempt at a long squeeze. If $266 holds on the retest two months or so from now. Since apparently I am the only one who knows both what they are doing and how to stop it (and is willing to do so), that long squeeze will likely not fail. I don't have nearly the funds to do it on my own and all my "allies" will be much weaker after this next round trip.

Four punch what?  Huh

One summary and prognostication of this dynamic and the potential universal applicability of blockchains is that anything that can be decentralized will be.

4 months is like nothing. They'll either get kicked out or Germany will leave the euro and send every other country to hell.

Greek deal is reached (apparently - though we have had many false starts). Bitcoin is flat... interesting.


It's so funny to watch. Syriza was all like "we're getting out of the Euro, blablabla".
What did they get? An extension which would have been granted to any political party who would have won.
A change of name for the Troika, so that they can brag to the Greek citizens.
Ridiculous.

i think it's likely to be this way probably until after the auction ..

maybe some small pump and a lot sideways ..

I'm expecting a pump a bit before the auction, and I don't think the aftermath will influence the price greatly.

Right now, consolidation period more likely than a substantial continuation of the rally, in my opinion - though I'm not saying we can't make another run for $300.

In that case, I would expect something similar to the period from mid-Feb to beginning of March. This time, if we would be staying above $260-265 on average, while not dipping much below $250-255 (DSMA20), we could be looking at a continuation of the upwards trend in a week or two from now.

I guess that, right now, I don't see $300 falling and closing above on daily.

/2cents

Agreed. A sharp rise now wouldn't even have the strength to last for long, I think.
I guess we'll have to wait for 2016 to see an actual rally, though 2015 should be mostly "uptrendish".

Which would fit well with a market effect of the impending block reward era 3 (which is expected for 2016/2017, but we're going through blocks faster on average than the target, 144 per day target, 154 on all-time average)

Let's hope so!
Still, I think many people (those who got into bitcoin for get-rich-quick reasons) will get tired and leave during 2015.

I wonder where did you find *exactly* these numbers? Price is stable around $280. So you think it will drop by $50 and rise only by $8? What happened with $300 ceiling?

Up ~20% from last month, up ~7% from last week. Sure, right now isn't exactly exciting, but I wouldn't exactly say the "market is so slow". Unless you were expecting another uber rally to take place of course, which is not likely to happen very soon imo - if we're lucky, this year will be (roughly) similar to 2012.

It's actually quite a fast growing at this stage of the early bull market. We might still have a little dip before moving on, me thinks.

In short, one of the Swedish  high courts has asked the European court for advice on where Europe stands on taxing the exchange of bitcoin to fiat and vice vesa. This in turn because a Swedish citizen appealed a decision from the Swedish tax authorties on paying tax for the exchange of bitcoins he is doing in his company.
The european advocat general Juliane Kokott suggests as a verdict that bitcoin should be regarded as a currency and not be taxed. The court usually go with the advocat generals suggestions.
