Weekend dips are often upside-down-dips.
We just tickled $99, less than $10K to $100 now. Will we see it today?

if not soon why later?
Because later is much harder to predict :-) Perhaps we'll never see double-digits again, I have no idea.

Do you realize we've been in triple digits for one week now? 18K BTC down to 100, and we just hit 3-day highs. The Gox trading engine is lagging, which is usually a bullish signal. S3052 tweeted "Bitcoin trading to become more violent in the next few months." Interesting times ahead.

Satoshi would not have invented bitcoin without 2008 crisis. He wrote some comments on the blockchain about it
Insanity is the financial system we have. Bitcoin is sanity.
Satoshi worked in Bitcoin for years prior to the 2008 crisis. He had likely thought the financial system was insane for a long time.

This just means that the top is not yet around the corner. The faster it grows, the sooner it crashes.
These quiet days (aka "consolidation") during uptrends
are typically followed by new violent breakouts upwards. After a day or two, everybody decides that the new price level is accepted by everybody else, and then they continue buying. While a bursting bubble seems to pop when the market is already very volatile. Both April 2013 and 2011 are examples of this.
Sundays have been strong days recently as well (no idea why; perhaps buyers think Monday will be the strong day so they try to get in early before the price goes up?). I think tomorrow will be interesting.

Look at the 7d, it would actually be a quadruple bottom.

You're right,

Who told you this?
These people:
Bitcoin price expected to go down till 480$ and then go up to an all time high
I predicted that before. page 2803. No one believed me.
By 400, I of course meant 480. The point is I'm confused that we're not plunging in that direction.
Edit: I confused myself into thinking these were two different people, but it's just one guy discussing his own prediction with himself?? I hate the internet.

Lots of people seem to be predicting buy-backs tomorrow when new money arrives at exchanges. If this is really a common belief, we should see this rally start already today, because people with lots of fiat already on exchanges after the sell-off will want to get in early. The day has started off well in this regard I think, but it will be very interesting to watch it develop.

how come that i was selling coins on mtgox for 964.50 and price went to 964.65 without getting my coins sold?
limited amount of coins being sold and someone else having an order ahead of you would be my best guess.
so that's possible on gox even if my coins are cheaper than the others?
They weren't cheaper, they were the same price as somebody else's and they placed the order before you did.

"Easily misinterpreted" characterises this whole "crash". The China news was easily misinterpreted as China outlawing Bitcoin completely, and the 10-year-old JPM patent, completely unrelated to anything Bitcoin does, is being easily misinterpeted on purpose by maxkeiser as JPM preparing to sue all Bitcoin exchanges. Bitcoin holders are the most jumpy creatures ever.

I don't get it, you aren't in a position that will be beneficial to how you are thinking?... So you are either lying to yourself, or simply believe that your best judgment is more than likely wrong.
Nobody knows what Bitcoin is doing right now. You would have to suffer a serious disorder in order to honestly believe you did. So the "bulls" are only hyping because they worry sick that they shouldn't have bought, and the bears are crying doom because they worry sick that they shouldn't have sold.
Everybody here knows this, of course.

The investment firm has apparently raised even more money than SecondMarket's Bitcoin Invesment Trust. I'll repost with details and firm names once the full story is pieced together.

Post 4241323 (copy this link) (by capsqrl) (scraped on 2020-04-04_Sat_11.49h):
This is the mystical hedge fund rumor from yesterday:
From Dan Primack at Fortune:
Bitcoinana: In September we discussed how SecondMarket had launched the first U.S.-based investment vehicle dedicated exclusively to Bitcoin, called The Bitcoin Investment Trust (beating out the Winklevii, who remain stuck in regulatory limbo). Now comes word that Fortress Investment Group is prepping its own Bitcoin fund, which likely will be much larger than the SecondMarket offering.
Details remain scarce, although there are some rumors that some info could be revealed tonight at the Bitcoin New Year’s Eve Bash down on Broad Street (yes, this is an actual thing). But it is worth noting that Fortress earlier this year acquired Koru Ventures, a provider of patent-backed loans to tech companies, in order to launch an IP finance group. Among Koru’s principals (and new Fortress employees) was Steven Waterhouse (ex-CTO of RPX Corp.), whose LinkedIn profile yesterday said that he had just become a partner on an unnamed Bitcoin fund. After I sent Waterhouse an email requesting more info – and also placing a call with Fortress – the Bitcoin mention disappeared from his LinkedIn page (replaced only with “TBD”).
My understanding, however, is that the Fortress effort will be something like a currency ETF (similar to Bitcoin Investment Trust), but that Fortress also may raise a separate vehicle to back Bitcoin-related startups. And there likely is some relationship to a new Bitcoin-related fund raised by Pantera Capital, a San Francisco-based hedge fund whose clients are known to include several Fortress executives. Pantera founder Dan Moorehead declined to discuss his Bitcoin efforts or relationship to Fortress – including if his effort and the Fortress fund were one in the same – but an SEC filing indicates that he already has raised around $150 million, and Pantera recently participated in a VC round for crypto-currency payment network Ripple Labs. Moreover, calls to Pantera’s main number are now met with a voicemail that only identifies the firm as “Pantera Bitcoin.”

This Peter Wynn character just has to suffer some unfortunate mental disorder. He speculates that BitPay added a backdoor for Zynga and that's how money disappeared from his BTC-e account because BitPay also has a backdoor to BTC-e, or something CRAZY. His profile says he's a "crypto prodigy", but people are having to explain password hashing to him. Meanwhile he seems to tweet about once per 15 seconds. Could be a manic episode maybe?

Weekend rally again :S
Nothing new here, until tomorrow or monday when some traders will take profits again and bring us to $890-$900 levels for the remaining of the week.
SO BORING.

If anyone wants to dump, there's plenty to dump into now - more than 10k down to $400.
