Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[Adrian-x]

Ok, I really don't understand this market. It doesn't drop when Mt.Gox hits fucking $91 and now when MK resigns (something that everybody wanted) from the foundation, the price ..... tanks.

Well if all is well you don't resign but when you are not worthy of the position you resign.
I guess this looks like he is going to bail on Bitcoin

Those Canadians in Toronto know the drill, they have a crack smoking Mayor Rob Ford, who keeps working well because using crack and public service aren't exclusive.

+1, every time..

Something interesting is happening at the moment I think. Gox remove their tweets, relocate their office and that link few pages back saying "light at the end of the tunnel for gox customers". Maybe the exchange really is being sold to some more competent people? We'll see, we'll see.

Indeed, lot of stuff happened in few hours. Resignation from Bitcoin FOundation, tweets deleted, something's going on.

Mark really throwing his toys out of the pram.

So where are those bulls now who were insulting last night while I was making perfect predictions? Fess up.

You nailed it! Now you have to tell us what happens next.

Anyone who trusts the words of "Charlie" is dumb.  

Anyone who trusts anything posted here by anybody, especially new members with a tenuous grasp of English, is dumb. Besides he confirmed it on his official twitter feed.

I more often end up calling the bottom within 5%, and then proceed to panic sell as soon as I acquire them..

I definitely didnt buy at 155 on Gox and sell at $170. Nooo way, didnt do that.

In april I bought at $50.01 by bidding in front of the walls at the bottom of $50. I then sold at $57... It seemed like good profit at the time.

yeah, I do that kind of thing too... after first Chinese dump I bought on absolute bottom just to sell same day at 600 or so and see it go to 850 few hours later. After second one, bought pretty low to and sold most at 670 some 10 minutes before it exploded and had to rebuy at 800 or so..

Agreed.  Stick to facts.  Mtgox twitter is off.   An alleged felon of a major crime is indicating Mtgox will be well, but he doesn't know about solvency,  on his "official" twitter account.  You can trust what you like, but all factual data points to a serious problem.  Only innuendo points otherwise.

"Tenuous grasp of english."  LOL.  I imagine you fancy yourself a professor and intellectual.  Spare me kid, you have no clue.

oh yeah, forgot on that one too. Did pretty much same though I had only few coins back then.

[Adrian-x]

Lol I only buy the top and bottom, (well the last fiew bottoms and tops - and a little off loading here and there)
I'm still thinking about adding funds, so I think there is a lot more bear in the woods.

They've been acting dodgy for the past month and now everyone thinks something is wrong? I cannot believe people have wired money to them!

Greed.... i hope those idiots lost all their money.

The most interesting notion that Gox may be being purchased by outsiders makes a TON of sense!!

Imagine you're Mark-- totally sick of running your company, dudes are getting in your way while you're carrying your scrumptious coffee-beverage to work (idiots), and no one really understands your pure awesomeness... you have maybe 10,000 BTC (idk!?!?) and someone offers you millions!! to walk away from gox == yummy coffee-beverages without idiots.

What would you do?

Win-Win-Win

It actually adds up nicely.

How does the same person confirming what they said previously make the initial claim more valid?

Shrem linked to his official Twitter account confirming that he was who he claimed to be on Reddit. Unless someone hacked his Twitter that's good enough for me.

[OldGeek]

Sheesh!  Leave you kids alone with my market for a while and look what you've done to it.  

Alright, I seem to have digested the most recent newses and mostly agree with your collective assessments.

Now, some one with loads of experience, please tell me why Stamp is ~10 bucks below BTC-e.

Mit.Gox CEO宣布退出比特币基金会 比特币价格继续下跌

几日前，Mt.Gox被曝将可能面临被关闭的命运。据悉，近段时间出现的一个漏洞导致该平台无法验证比特币交易的唯一性，进而导致刷钱行为出现的可能性。随后，Mt.Gox被迫关闭掉比特币的提现功能来遏制该种威胁。因为这次的事故导致了比特币价格开始出现了下跌。

现在看来，这种消极的情绪在比特币市场中继续蔓延。日前，Mt.Gox CEO宣布退出比特币基金会。比特币基金会是一个致力于监管比特币这种虚拟货币流通的机构。
Coinbase发现了Mt.Gox CEO Mark Karpeles提交的博文。虽然该篇文章并未交代Karpeles离开的真正原因，但是从种种迹象推断，其出走很大可能则是因为Mt.Gox在过去几个月内遭受的技术故障。

The biggest problem is it makes a ton of sense -- since when does Bitcoin operate under such parameters?

and when has GOX ever done what made sense?
