Is Bitcoin going to go back down (to under $3k) or not? Why's it taking so long?
>>
>>3085428
After every peak before it has gone down over 80 percent. I think it will go below $2,000
>>
>you know the one.jpg
>>
>>3085428
Well if you compare the price to the hashrate of the network you would see that btc should currently be priced at around 2000$.

The network hashrate grows about 10% every month so 3k/BTC hashrate value should be hit in like 5 months.

This means Btc has 5 months time to hit 3k with less chance reaching 3k each day.

We are currently at a price that should exist in 8-9 months assuming minimum value then.
>>
>>3085428
it's coming down, take it easy

>>3085485
It's horribly relevant since I'm waiting to actually get into the market. To buy BTC with USD.
>>
>>3085462
Yeah, it went to 600 after hitting 3k the first time this summer, remember?

you dont need to be a genius to look at the charts and say, this doesn't seem right

you think BTC will have an exponential grow forever? check the timeline,
this price now is not sustainable,

its not idiotic just common sense
>>
>>3085505
that wasn't the peak since it has kept going up shitlord
>>
>>3085566
>its not idiotic just common sense
Look here: http://www.bitcoinblockhalf.com

The value of the newly created coins is $7,033,306 every day.

If there are more than $7,033,306 pumped into bitcoin each day then the value rises. Thats 2.5 billion in a year. Bank of america alone made 83.701 billion last year.

Fuck your common sense
>>
>>3085566
People were saying this sort of stuff when BTC were a $100 each.
It's sustainable for as long as people think they can make money with it, that's pretty much forever.
The price could be 100k, people will just be dealing in ever smaller pieces
>>
>>3085632
As long as people can't make a ton of money by cashing out immediately, sure.

We're in that zone, people have doubled their money in a month, and Bitcoin isn't money, yet.

People are going to sell off.

By that logic Bitcoin should have never gone down before. Even when it was $250 there was far more than $7 million buying into Bitcoin each day.

I know "fibonacci retracement" and "golden ratio" might sound cool or something in your feeble brains, that doesn't mean it has any scientific merit. Trying to predict the movement of a stochastic system by setting % levels based on a number series is pants on head fucking retarded. Deal with it.

Still waiting for that explanation on what magical property of the fibonacci series (or any series for that matter) makes financial markets follow % levels based on it. Take your time.

Have you even read it? It's literally nothing.
>This does indicate that a fairly sophisticated automated trading system
based on a pattern learning algorithm like for example an adaptive neural
network could be trained on input Fibonacci sequences along with addi-
tional input vectors comprising of some common technical indicators like
the EMA cross-overs, to pick up recurring patterns in the historical price
data with plausible predictive utility. However more numerical tests are
obviously required to know the practical value of such predictions.

I never said that. I was just pointing out that an unrelated degree has no bearing on your 'expertise' whatsoever. YOU were the only one here claiming that you have some expert credentials because you are a fucking physics grad student.

t clearly wasn't a peak because it has kept going up. If it went down and stayed down it was a peak.

bitcoin is "better gold than gold"

etc. etc.

not really, by zero, I mean the actual value in USD that it is valued at. When no one is willing to buy cryptos anymore, it will go the way of the other failed cryptos.

The entire fiat currency system is a ponzi scheme. Only the ones who prints them get to use its entire value before trickling down do you.

I rather get into a ponzi scheme earlier than everyone else than to cuck myself with one ponzi that has been established for a century and hope I can profit from that.

AGAIN, you have to work...WORK at a job, show up every day and WORK for fiat money. The fiat ponzi scheme that you so call it.
Only then do you BUY, crypto coins, and hope that in a week, month, or year, someone else will be willing to work his or her ass off and pay MORE than you did for it.

Lets hope this ponzi scheme of crypto goes on for a decent run, before people wise up.

It is true. It has as much value as people place on it.

Besides, the majority of the market is built on money from thin air. People make gains from alts and other stable currencies and throw it into more stable currencies for safer keeping, the most popular of course BTC.

We have a serious crash coming. Not only is BTC now bloated and being pumped, anons will start to try seriously cashing out in a year or two. That'll be interesting

that is impossible, all persons who run a legitamite business will accept bitcoin on the BASIS that is has a dollar value.

Once the dollar value of said bitcoin drops, they will ask for MORE bitcoin for items.

Prices are set in dollars and converted into bitcoin prices.

pretty soon your dollars are going to be good for starting fires and not much else

you know the chinese etc have been offloading treasuries for a few years now

think of this not as a BTC pump but as a dollar dump. it is both, because BTC is replacing gold, but most people are missing half the picture.

dollar is headed. BTC is headed to about 3 lambos. the BTC:dollar ratio is headed for actual infinity, but about $300k in present day dollars

i dropped out of btc a few days ago when it peaked at 4400 and i put it all into bcc earlier today.

Your argument is that the Chinese people are selling treasuries and that bitcoin will go up.

So if next year the Chinese purchase more treasuries and bitcoin loses 90% of its value, you argument will mean what.

Fiat currencies all fail in the long run, true, but at the very least, our current fiat system is set up so that persons HAVE to accept the dollar for a debt, if not that debt will be considered null.

Crypto is based on what the next sucker will pay, and there is no shortage of suckers.

When one bitcoin is worth 1 dollar, you could offer someone 10,000 bitcoins for a new Honda Accord and they would laugh in your face.

before reading this, keep in mind that the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent. you don't necessarily want to do what "makes sense"

ok. so whats the deal with BTC / BCC?

core / blockstream are run by the CIA/MI6. their main funders are AXA and Mosaic Ventures, former owned by former bilderberger, latter a MI6 front. what are they up to?

first, small blockers/segwit. the idea is to make onchain transactions expensive and force people into "lightning networks" which basically means you pay some Visa2.0 company instead of getting peer to peer uncontrollable transactions. major (but not only) value proposition of bitcoin destroyed.

second, take note of the fact that vitalik didn't do shit to develop ethereum. microsoft employees wrote the code and put vitalik as a front guy. note that ethereum is mostly hot air, no actual use cases yet has the whole fortune 500. PoS is not secure. they are pretending that private chains
with low hash are immutable / secure. all kinds of retard tier shit spewing left and right, yet this shitcoin was pumped regardless. no one with any sense is buying it for value, most people with money actually have sense, ergo people are buying it for other reasons (artificially create a competitor to bitcoin)

third, currency requires a network effect. this is very valuable. there can really only be one goto currency. if it is bitcoin, it won't be the dollar anymore. to try to stave off the arrival of this day, now you see why shitcoins like ethereum are being pumped so hard

fourth, segwit activation and the medium article on pumping. the BTC chain can collapse overnight any day now. image the scenario: (1) 20% hash power moves BTC > BCC (2) BTC blocks slow down 25%, mem pools blooms, exponential increase in tx fees, price drop from uncertainty (3) BTC price down BCC price up > more miners move > (2) is exacerbated > (3) is exacerbated ..... self-sustaining cycle that drives BTC=0 BCC=10k
>>
>>3095436
>hedge funds
also, here is definition
plural noun: hedge funds
a limited partnership of investors that uses high risk methods, such as investing with borrowed money, in hopes of realizing large capital gains.
>>
>>3095482
cont.

knowing that BTC chain can collapse at any moment, the US/UK intelligence agencies are investing heavily in propping up the BTC price to keep the chain from collapsing.

why? because BCC already has effectively unlimited scaling. unlimited blocks can become a world reserve currency, whereas segwit chain can not.

so the moment the rush out of BTC into BCC starts, is the moment you have a serious threat to the dollar as world reserve currency.

when you see this start, make sure you hold plenty of BCC and very few dollars. shit is going to go bananas on a worldwide scale very quickly thereafter. dethronement of the dollar can happen within 6 months - 2 years of the BTC chain getting spiked and BCC chain taking over. the ramifications of such an event are far beyond 99% of /biz/ comprehension

what's also interesting is that goldman sachs definitely knew this was happening when they set their $4800 price target with a correction to $2.2k.

btc crashing or what?
>>
>>3095535
I don't really see how that's a relevant response to a pretty sincere question

We have to assume that GS has intimate knowledge of the tether game (irregardless of BCC's role). So they knew that the shtick couldn't continue indefinitely, fake tethers propping up the price of btc. So what did they forecast would cause the downfall? I think that''s a pretty interesting question.

>>3095482
>>3095503
major redpill. I agree with all the points you made (especially the role of ethereum, which I've postulated about too) but not the timescale.

>>3095508
wut
>>
>>3095503
see, that could very well be true. but all this manipulation is doing for me is showing me that btc is inherently flawed in that it can be manipulated so easily by an entity with a vested interest. not to mention how transparent it is; like they dont have to care that what theyre doing is plainly obvious.

and then the crash sachs is predicting. surely theyd be in on whatever is going on if that's the case. why would they crash btc if they know thatd result in a transfer to a a coin they cant control?

now, if theyre the ones manipulating btc to keep it from crashing to avoid a transition to bcc, why arent they crashing bcc at the same time? it should be much easier to control the price of a currency valued much lower. but look at the bcc price chart. it's as stable as can be. that tells me that this has to be related. it makes too much sense for it not to be.
>>
>>3095503

>better start changing my forks to chopsticks

Don't forget about ether and lite. BCC is not the only alternative, and after that collapse why would you go back to something with similar roots?

you know, a couple days ago some anon made a thread here telling people to load up on $DCTH. i laughed my ass off and went off on how worthless that stock is, how it's going either reverse split 75:1 or getting delisted this week and that anyone buying it is a moron and op is just trying to pump up the price to help cut his losses for when he dumps before their deadline. $DCTH shot up 40% today.

im not trying to tell you to do anything. maybe im wrong. or maybe come monday youll be wishing you listened to me just like i wish i wasnt such a pompous, dismissive asshole to that other guy.
>>
>>3095601
> but all this manipulation is doing for me is showing me that btc is inherently flawed

the flaw isn't with bitcoin. the flaw is you have a central bank which can print dollars willy nilly. as long as the dollar is the standard, the manipulation potential is extreme.

at the same time you have to take note that this, while massive, is a finite source of manipulation

the feds have been pumping the stock market, bond market, etc. too. is it "fundamentally flawed" to be able to have ownership in companies, ie stocks? no. but price discovery in a market with arbitrary fiat printing is flawed.

use your language correctly. the flaw is the federal reserve, not bitcoin.

>and then the crash sachs is predicting. surely theyd be in on whatever is going on if that's the case. why would they crash btc if they know thatd result in a transfer to a a coin they cant control?

they don't want to spike bitcoin to zero. BCC supporters do. goldman sachs / CIA / MI6 / VISA types want a very diversified crypto ecosphere with lots of "competitors" and no clear frontrunner for dollar dethronement.

don't confuse a modest correct prediction by GS with a total spiking of the BTC chain that real bitcoiners are planning (ie BTC = $0 + BCC > moon is the goal of bitcoiners whereas goldman wants BTC down 25% and a variety of shitcoins to surge)
>>
>>3095650

>>
>>3095746
depends on what you mean by winning.

if we get a crypto as reserve currency you get a $10T+ market cap.

if we linger in the variety of shitcoin situation, you might see $300B or $400B and then an eventual collapse of the ecosphere

do you want 3000x gains or 2x-5x gains? is giving up 3000x for 2x-5x "winning" if it comes at the cost of keeping goldman sachs bankers in charge of the world?
>>
>>3095784
honestly? im beyond psyched with the 18% return on my 401k over the past year. 2-5x gains with everything else proceeding as normal sounds like a dream come true to me. i dont have any fantasies about upending the established world order, im just trying to build some wealth for a comfy, early retirement. and like i said, ill obviously take 3000x over 2-5x, but i wont be upset either way.

How the fuck would BTC ever be able to go down with all this media attention?
Nearly ATH and both normies and conglomerates are willing to buy high in hope for another 4k multiplier.

All of you fucking assholes shilling hodl, hodl, and these faggots out there will mostly buy fractions and forget about them.

good for you man. i fucked with delcath maybe two months back, bought at .08 and sold at .17. got super hyped on it but thankfully didnt buy back in and watched it tank shortly after (not really a penny stock guy). this was at the beginning of the period where it was up like 80% a day for 3 days straight. couldnt believe it.

told my coworker about it (he's a robinhood penny stock addict) and has been long tens of thousands of shares since buying in around .27. every day i have to listen to him talk about how its going to go up to 2 bucks a share soon, giving me shit for my dozens of TSLA shares that only recently climbed out of the huge hole they'd been in since the beginning of july.

i was a bit bitter since i have to listen to this delcath shit every day and i keep telling him hes a moron for holding penny stocks. glad it paid off for you though. sorry i was such a dick.
>>
>>3095805
2x-5x is purely hypothetical in this scenario too, no more likely than -90%

what is the value of a crypto if not as a stable reserve with low tx fees?

none really. without cheaper txs than visa and without a path to stable store of wealth, i'd put the true value of crypto at $0 to $5B max, or 95%+ loss

you might do well to time the market and get out at 2x before then, but probably not.

Here in the US tech companies, and that includes credit card providers, are trying to starve anyone who thinks two X chromosomes make you female by removing their ability to transact via the internet.
