Just funded my bitstamp account from USA for first time. Wire arrived in 3 days. Significantly faster than mt Gox. Will be interested in comparing withdrawal times. Still awaiting funds from mt gox withdrawal on 12/26.
still? from 12/26 i wouldn't say "still waiting" until it's been over 6months (unless you paid 5%)
So are we all playing lets pay US Marshals as little as we can?
The buyers will state they paid more than they actually paid, to be able to file a lower gain later.
The marshals will say it was lower than the actual price, the difference entered into a slush fund to use for random gifts to friends. Selectively, they might report a few customers to the irs.
Not much of a conspiracy theorist, but i can't imagine that that information would not be released. In fact i can't believe no one has did the research on this to see weather US Marshals released the prices before on mansion and such even with freedome of info requests?!?
Just too lazy to research this myself
Got this feeling as if someone is trying to corner the market. 7200BTC to 620 on stamp and the buy ledger has this almost perfect zigzag patter to average down. Need to breakout of this BS either way will do
Someone is definatelly dumping A LOT of coins. But I don't think it's manipulation now. Just someone with a lot of coins to dump, look at the 1k ask wall at 2940 on HooBoy and he dumped few k to bring it down accross major exchanges. If someone is willing to give up coins at these prices i'll gladly take as many as i can
Looks like the overall sentiment is that bitcoin is undervalued and market wants to go up. BFX longs lost 12MM or 30% (i think BFX did an amazing job controlling that avalanch), and shorts are up by like 2k BTC. All indicators are pointing up, lets see how many coins Mr Dump has, if it's Gox's coins this might take a while
I had to take three months off when the train left without me, but I'm back, Baby. I still have the cash from when i foolishly dumped and now I'm ready to get back in the game asoon and this next crash makes it cheap enough. This many shorts get squeezed when it's over and it'll go to up like a rocket, but it's likely to get worse before it gets better.
Are you saying that because of this crash the next 'bubble' is going to be epic?
He's saying that if people feel that things couldn't be worse (capitulation) and enough people betting against BTC (shorting) suddenly find themselves getting burned when the price suddenly spikes up, these are the perfect conditions for the next big rally. Historically the previous rallies have all begun like this.
BFX's shorts just shot up to only 7.5kBTC or just about 3.5MM which is only a small portion compared to longs at 18MM. Wake me up when shorts get to 30k BTC
