I think you might wanna delete this account and start a new one undercover.
maybe i should, but as long as you dont give me a reason, a simple ignore would do

nice reading - follow the link:

So I postulate that the big player that was slowly cashing out last week and yesterday had prior knowledge about the coming lawsuit. Lots of other big players seem to as well, them causing the ask sum to skyrocket in the last 48 hours.
I'm really glad I noticed that happening and got out in time.
Which lawsuit? You mean that?

dont you have wire transfer as in europe: you give your bank a account number, the sum to transfer and 1day to 10 days after its done. the whole thing works with webinterfaces of the banks too. why take a third party for that???

would be interesting to know the figures of bitfinex bets, but anyway - options work with 2 parties, so if the volume is low on gox it will be low on bitfinex too i bet.
the liberty reserve thing is majorly blown up by the us govx. they state that $6 billions where "washed" over lr, ... i suspect that sum is just the total business sum, because i doubt they are able to properly separate legitimate trades from "washing"-trades, besides that only a judge can tell in a verdict which sum was illegitimate. but it will make ordinary people stay away from anything resembling e-cash for a while- so low volume ahead.
i find the way the prosecutors present their case quite entertaining, just like if they would have won over evil. but looking at it from another perspective one could almost just as well state that lr was a succesful implementation of hawalla (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawala) in the digital domain, and so a super cool startup company working really well with cool guys on top, sort of sugarberg etc..

talking about hawalla, i hope bitcoin is "hawalla 2000"

I'd believe it. The consciousness defining industry, I mean, psychology, is serving the State, not people.
Psychologists are okay (not all of them of course). Psychology will soon (10 - 20 years) merge with neurology. My girlfriend is involved in a research project aimed for merging some psychology concepts with neurological concepts into one single theory / science.
You should be afraid of
psychiatrists and psychiatry- psychiatrists are the guys who put pills into you that turn you into a zombie.
one should be very cautious when people talk about professions they dont learned themselves.
in fact psychiatrists are the only ones entitled to prescribe drugs (in europe). wheter thats good or not is another question.
so if you are mentally sick in a way that a treatment requires drugs (as a supplement to othe kinds of treatmens or not) only psychiatrists could help (another question is if you believe in medicine - some people argue that pills dont help against mental illnesses). when thinking about psychiatrists as monsters or stuff, always think about the other side of the medal: psychologists telling people who need drugs, that they dont need drugs and that they would get better, just by the right kind of thinking..
btw imho i think there are no more noobs invested in btc at this time, only speculators like us, and those all want it to go up, so it will oscillate around that level the price has now, until enough noobs get reinvested or until enough decent btc-startups appear..or until some real bank offers trading.

why so complicated?
new buyers came into the market because of the recent press coverage, it rocketed a while. now that the newbies are done, the sells begin. next hype will come earlier than the last because this time no one was was frightened by a sharp drop this time.
so lets wait for some more news like "hot dog stand in washington accepts bitcoins" and the next rally begins

If these buy and hold smartasses could have it on their own someone would still trying to buy a pizza with 10 000 coins.
What a load of bullshit.
lol no.
Lol, yes. If absolutely all people would just hold like some are giving "smart" advices here, nobody would be able to buy a coin as nobody would selling them, so those coins would be absolutely worthless as Satoshi and 100 others would know about them.
"Buy and hold"
gang (who would they buy from if everyone would do that..) are the biggest enemy of the Bitcoin. They're just too
greedy twats to understand that.
Let's not single out the buy/hold crowd as the only greedy ones. To be sure, the goal of EVERY trader is to increase his wealth. That being said, you are exactly right, we need sellers. Most of the current crop of holders will be sellers at whatever point they feel they have gained sufficient wealth to buy some of the things they need, say a car or house.
Of course we are all greedy at some point but they
are just plain morons on top of that.
Just checking in on a leisurely Saturday morning to find that I'm now in a gang of greedy twats who are just plain morons, apparently. All just because I hold onto my coins? The last time I tried to trade I lost 1% of my coins, whereas by holding since May they've increased in value by 400%. So forgive me for not buying and selling just to keep you happy.
Oh, and by the way - CHOO CHOO MF!!!
ever heard of holding whilst going long and short on margin?

Appears that USD exchanges are just getting out of the way of the chinese stampede.

It could just be that what appears to be the chinese could just be daytraders. Seriously, when I daytrade I like 0 fees, and I don't intend to withdraw USD anyway, so who cares if its yuan-denominated instead?

I feel like if bitcoin can't make a strong move to the upside, it will slowly meander down over a few weeks. There's not as much buying pressure and a substantial amount more selling pressure than one week ago which is why the price has equalized for the short term. If this increasing selling trend continues we could see substantially lower prices.
I agree totally.
My guts tell my that second scenario will be most likely.
I feel so weak and sleepy in such a days
but sell of or not I will stick to my coins

Post 3894824 (copy this link) (by wilfried) (scraped on 2020-04-04_Sat_11.35h):
Not relevant. The ban had nothing to do with the price drop. BTCChina's new ID verification requirements, on the other hand, have everything to do with the drop.
The price manipulators and launderers need to find a new exchange.
i think so too, but on the other hand, they want a passport code entered and i dont think they have the means to check if its ok, so one could enter any passport id, ie an idea that follows the scheme of passport - id´s from a certain country.
i wonder if chinese authorities check those id´s entered at btcchina upon arrival at a chinese border..

Let's say it is. (Second Market would know though I would think) But people will read it and still invest anyways so it can't help but be bullish news.
no, cause it says "a ceo from a fund of bitcoins" bla bla, anything anybody from a fund says is bullshit (except maybe mr. warren buffet)..

Guys are you checking transactions in Blocks ? there is allot of coin mixing going on, each time the price falls down I check the blocks and I see so many mixing going on!!!! I am still curious of what is going on !!!!
what is "mixing"

transfering coins from one account to another over and over again? maye its people trying to "wash" some stolen coins before they put them into an exchange; awaiting kyc regulations, now that btcchina has fucked with the clients. might as well be arbitrage, maybe some customers managed to open accounts at the same bank as a exchange and such money transfer is as fast as btc transfer for them.

daytraders, whats your actual timeframe you speculate on? 2h?
5 minutes for quick in and out movements
15 minutes to denote the local end of a sharp crash for the day
1 hour to predict a nice breakout.
4 hour to go all in
1 day for da cold storage hodling

thats elaborated, i only do quick in and out movements, but i have a hard time getting my orders executed, so the market moves away and 20 min later i am still sitting and waiting..
another question or maybe more a poll:
do you rather speculate according to the short term trend or do you rather bet on the next trend ?
(i.e. now m1 it should go down but is rather pointing upwards; over all its sideways, so going long or short is merely guessing i think. as i am not guessing at the moment i am waiting for a longer up/down movement)

When I'm doing hardcore rapid daytrading during a crash I don't use emas for my entries. I use the order books and volume.
me too, i am always trying to buy very close @ the actual highest bid, but with low volume thats a pain

I rarely buy and sell the same day (except when arbing, but that kinda died out with BTC China). Actually made only 3 major moves on our way down from the top:
- sell at 925-870
- buy at 670-420
- sell at 610-720
Next I will buy back cheaply.
nice

i did buy some @ 550, 480, 460, 440
and will hold until 2015 or longer

since btcchina seemes to have detached i am observing gox, backchecking with btc-e and if bitstamp follows i place my orders on bitfinex. i dont really trust in btc-e to trade; i have some dismal experiences with metatrader+btc-e ..

i think gox is so successful because the fees for low volume trades are so high, it´s all about trades with high volume ripping off low-volume traders.

Good news keep pouring in on a daily basis, still the market is paralyzed in waiting for China mode. I feel strongly that we are at a plateau that will never again be revisited, and I have now put everything I am able to into Bitcoins. Does anyone else share this feeling of impending boom?
no!
i think at the moment the whole market is in hodl-position and going to hibernate. just some more hodlers and we will get crazy market actions, because of very thin order books.
first price will crash, then risk-oriented-hodlers will temporariliy get out of hibernation, which will leed to some peaks and bots will have big times but that will be just crazy action during hodl-hibernation.
until the next rally it will stay like this.
and i think the next rally is not very near, as we need many times more news than some months ago, because people were scared big time by the volatility in november/december. the new normal-folk-paradigma concerning bitcoin for now is: "but since china ban it´s dead, isnt it?"
we already see the bid-ask spread in the actual m3 chart of stamp, very bad sign imho

exchanges should make it impossible to fill your own orders.
Not a chance. It removes the option of "cross trades".
e.g You are a broker who has order to buy 200 and sell 100.
The broker would then buy 100 and then "cross" 100, resulting in 200 bought and 100 sold.
This is critical in open outcry exchanges.
plz, could you explain that for a 5year old? thx

miners are much less likely to hoard. This is simply because they have running costs
Most miners today bought equipment when everyone was telling them it would never ROI, and they would be better off buying and holding. I don't think they need to sell bitcoins to cover costs. They spend fiat to make bitcoins because they despise fiat and like bitcoins. Spending fiat on power bills is just one more way to burn the fiat.
So, what you are saying is that miners are hodlers, too? Sure, some are. But you think that this guy
http://hongwrong.com/hong-kong-bitcoin/ is not selling some of his BTC each month to cover costs?
i think this guy took some pictures of something and made a nice hoax

Here's a hypothesis I haven't heard before: The willybot was wasn't in in-house bot for Gox, but for Second Market, who used the "world's most established exchange" to buy in bulk. Most of the purchases were dark pool orders, but when that pool dried up, willy went to work. Now Gox is locked up and Second Market needs another source of bulk coins, so under the guise of a two-way exchange, they are actually buying on behalf of the bitcoin Investment Trust (BIT).
If anyone has made a purchase from 2nd Market, I will be happy to revise or discard this hypothesis, but I'd like some feedback either way. If I'm right, liquidity is being soaked up under the RADAR at a scale few are aware of.
well, i thing for an exchange service it would be easier to use your inside knowledge to give you nice trading hints, so i dont really believe in that story - and if its true, how do they hide from the blockchain?

Hey! What's going on with Bitcoinbuilder? Last price 0.22 with gox/stamp 0.29. Wtf?
An American woke up early to check on how things are and freaked out
That or we're screwed. I'm sending more BTC to builder now anyway, double or nothing. Hurry up Stamp "waiting to be processed"
do i understand that right?:
you speculate on that btc-builder will exist longer than your gox speculation will run, so that you can get your btc out again and not be trapped in gox?

I have told about the needed features countless times already, but I'll repeat myself again, what I see that needs fixing but isn't adressed with bitcoin: a) Speed of increasing wealth concentration b) Deflationary system that prohibits price stability c) Inefficiency of mining where new resources are spent while the network doesn't gain in speed or security.
I recommend many of the Alt coins that address your concerns specifically, if they truly are better, you'll make a killing.
which altcoin isnt scrypt?

MtGox's FUD cloud is still blocking the sky. not sure if its going to rain....
market seems to be holding its ground.
with MtGox DB being analyzed and two bit Idiot trying to make some noise, we have a very interesting week ahead of us.
Mr Idiot seems to have rolled back his hyperbole and isn't publishing his whatever it is tomorrow
http://two-bit-idiot.tumblr.com/ http://two-bit-idiot.tumblr.com/has eliminated the last piece of credibility.
anyway, who is he? is he important to btc? i never had to deal with him, all i need is this forum, btc-wisdom and bitfinex!

Data reveals:
Largest balance is 44K BTC which has not been accessed since 13/7/12
Next largest is 43K BTC last accessed on 25/2/14
It continues with 10 more 5000+ BTC balances where the accounts have not been accessed 2012.
Wow, that is so sad. Thats an absolute fortune

MtGox Database is leaked - using MagicalTux's own hacked blog and reddit account.

Wow, some REAL DATA at least! Even if it is for a dead exchange...
When was that snapshot taken?
What are the total balances in BTC, US, JPY, etc?

That is quite interesting, so there were people who had huge amounts of BTC in an exchange and did not use them for years.
Could that be true for other exchanges, now (after the demise of MtGOX)?
or its accounts where all the .000000000x round-errors and other specialities went to..

I am in very good health. And I am not Dorian Nakamoto.
Aminorex is not Dorian Nakamoto.
That can only he mean he's Satoshi Nakamoto. Now I just need to fit the lines to the data and draw a dinosaur, and I'll have definitive proof.
Ask him to confirm that he's not involved in Bitcoin. If he can't, that's proof positive.

*Redemption of shares will be allowed on a limited basis as of April 2014 with expectation of qualifying for public trading of the shares via the OTCQX® under the Alternative Reporting Standards.
http://www.bitcointrust.co/Are the potential sellers who will want to lock in their 300% profit getting priced in?
who are the owners ? is this the Winklevoss twins Trust ?
No, this is the Secondmarket fund.
mmmm, their web page looks different from the last time I visited, and it seems that they lowered the minimum investment to $25K... I am really curious how will this work out for them and how will it effect the Eco-system, will be watching...
this fund´s performance curve is essentially the bitcoin price. so they put up a fund that is doing nothing else than buying in and dont let the people out.. poor millionaires, thy should have invested in gox instead

Second Market bought 5800 coins yesterday, holding 101500 now.
There is a thread monitoring that fund:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=337486.0It seems that the earliest investors, who joined in September, can now liquidate. The shares are nominally worth 0.1 BTC at the current BTC/USD price; so those investors paid ~13 USD/share and may liquidate now at ~45 USD/share, a nice profit.
On the other hand, investors who bought in late November paid up to 110 USD for shares that are now worth ~45 USD. I suppose that they will be allowed to liquidate only in June; their gain or loss will be determined by the BTC price at that date.
From the table in that thread, I computed that the total money invested in the fund (minus the amount liquidated) must be now a few million USD more than the total nominal value of all extant shares (worth ~40 USD each as of yesterday). If that computation is correct, the average gain among all investors, if they all liquidated today, would be a bit negative. The averag loss of course will be larger if the BTC price falls further below 40 USD.
whats the difference to a ponzi scheme, if only the oldest incestors can liquidate??
