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

[SaintFlow]

Banks are closed this weekend.
#Bitcoin never closes.

News Ref

In defense of banks: with online banking and instant swift transaction money goes to exchanges 24/7 in minutes.
Is that all a bank does? No. But do I really need a real estate credit Saturday night?

Bro you are a delusional  convicted felon rapist Trump toadie.

Beating police officers with poles and spraying them with bear spray on video is not  an "escorted walk through the Capital"

<Sigh> The delusional flip floppers on the WO really need to STFU.

Yeah, you guys know who you are...the ones who about 4 years ago that were quoted as saying "Down with the mfk'ing police!" and "Defund the corrupt police!" and "They work for US! Not against us!" when they were supposedly using "overly aggressive force" to control rioters protesters during the Summer of Love. Rioters that assaulted police officers with poles, rocks, pepperspray, you name it (along with setting fires, destroying federal, public, and private property), and yet never saw any jail time. And you guys were cheering the rioters on the whole time.

Now suddenly you guys love police officers? Protesters should be sent to jail to rot forever? I guess as long as it is in support of your deranged, hypocritical ideology, it's all good huh?

Don't make me go back and find your incriminating WO posts.  

Just kindly STFU.

"Kraken 2024 financial highlights, which we are releasing for the first time in Kraken history."

Some interesting insights:

Kraken has been so focused that we’ve raised no more than $27 million in primary capital in our 14 years of existence.

During the year, clients entrusted us with $42.8 billion in assets on the platform and 2.5 million funded accounts. Total trading volumes in 2024 reached $665 billion and our average revenue per customer is now well over $2,000 – far surpassing any comparable stat we’ve seen from traditional or crypto exchanges.

we were one of the first to publish our Proof of Reserves – and while others have stopped, we’ve remained committed to publishing it regularly, ensuring the highest level of transparency and accountability.

I was seeing the impact of the last Trump measures (im talking about the tax foe Canada Mexico and China) and so far the crypto market stands pretty solid, it only make a very litle movement like the past one from deepseek, lets see in the monday when the normal markets open and see if that make more noise in our BTC, but so far this position is solid rock, above 100.000 despite big economics swings.

Transferring GOLD vs transferring BITCOIN

Well, well, well...

It seems that the deepseek 'guy' is a hedge fund 'mastermind' who placed big bets (shorts, I assume) before announcing deep seek's apparent progress.

It does not surprise me that there are efforts to undermine our markets...what surprises me is that "they" do it so blatantly and don't expect a response.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14348965/Hedge-funds-massive-bet-stock-market-crash-raises-alarm.html

... High Flyer's CEO and DeepSeek's mastermind, is at the center of this financial storm. His firm's strategic bets, often placed at the exact right moment before U.S. markets suffer major losses, have raised suspicions of manipulation, insider influence, and geopolitical strategy at play. If Wall Street's most powerful investors see more promise in a weakening U.S. economy than a thriving one, the consequences for American workers and retirees could be catastrophic. Furthermore, if there's one thing Donald Trump has never tolerated, it's disloyalty - and hedge funds turning against his presidency could put them squarely in his crosshairs.

EDIT: Paradoxically, the response could be both bullish and bearish for NVDA: bullish because T. would further accelerate investment in AI (in addition to 500bil already announced); bearish, because NVDA would be placed under a strict export control (hence the most recent one-on-one of Huang with T.), just like ASML (that produces UV light equipment to build chips) is under, which would , obviously, decrease sales. Somehow, Deepseek was able to get a hold of 50-100K A-100 Nvidia chips. All what you heard about "chinese chips" is probably bs, aimed on thwarting the pondering of the chips leak.

Attack on Trump 

This morning I ordered precision Military air strikes on the Senior ISIS Attack Planner and other terrorists he recruited and led in Somalia. These killers, who we found hiding in caves, threatened the United States and our Allies. The strikes destroyed the caves they live in, and killed many terrorists without, in any way, harming civilians. Our Military has targeted this ISIS Attack Planner for years, but Biden and his cronies wouldn’t act quickly enough to get the job done. I did! The message to ISIS and all others who would attack Americans is that “WE WILL FIND YOU, AND WE WILL KILL YOU!”

....What if his business model was global firework shows the whole time?  

Couldn't be arsed to come up with my usual some asshat reply (or scanning back before posting, for that matter, naughty me)... so left it to my fellow brain dead ai bud...

"Yep, it's like the 4th of July, but with more explosions and way less independence

Yeah, but instead of 'ooh' and 'aah,' the crowd just screams 'WTF' and watches their stocks explode too."
"True, but at least his fireworks come with a Twitter meltdown and a cult following.

GO BITCOIN

Surely the American people were left with some pretty bad choices, and surely there was (and still is) quite a bit of resonance with some of Trump's anti-government kinds of talking points.. but then at the same time there is some value to rule of law and also holding folks to standards in regards to violent crimes, and surely Trump's ongoing actions to use the Federal government as his little play things has so far been the somewhat foreseeable consequences including some of the ongoing outrageousness of trying to destroy records and/or destroy the work of anyone who had been involved in investigating and documenting the various uncomfortable truths of January 6th... and there are also several other likely unlawful firings and attempts at dismantling various agencies that surely stretch his power limits, but he does not seem to agree to limits - and surely it could become problematic to get into trying to even figure out too many of the details of the targeted destruction, and surely there is a gang of vindictive assistants behind that redheaded twat in order to employ their level of continued destructive efforts, and surely some  folks consider those behaviors as good, yet others must be having some voting remorse.

I doubt that you will find the level of supposed self-contradiction that you are proclaiming to exist... to the extent that it matters anyhow when criticizing various current governmental (or Trump) actions.

I was seeing the impact of the last Trump measures (im talking about the tax foe Canada Mexico and China) and so far the crypto market stands pretty solid, it only make a very litle movement like the past one from deepseek, lets see in the monday when the normal markets open and see if that make more noise in our BTC, but so far this position is solid rock, above 100.000 despite big economics swings.

Fuck crypto.  Are you  lost?

You did at least refer to BTC in your post... so you might have some wee potential for salvation.  Perhaps?  Perhaps?

It’s funny how Canadians are ready to start a trade war with America over a 25% tariff, but the 20% tax coming on April 1st to fight climate change is totally fine. I actually feel bad for the people of Canada. They don’t deserve the mess their weak leadership has gotten them into. On the plus side, Canadians who have been into Bitcoin for a while should have no problem paying off any debts they may have due to their currency nosediving against BTC.

I think Sam Backman Fried (SBF) is unforgivable, the crimes he committed will not be pardoned by Donald Trump.  Donald Trump alone cannot forgive, SBF has offended people around the world.  Imprisonment and stay for a long time would be the appropriate punishment for him.

There could be politics involved too since SBF and his parents seemed to be quite biased in a democratic direction... Though Trump seems to be such an attention whore that he could pardon that SBF dweeb merely for the shock value.

Trump pardon to Ross Ulbricht has given hope of release to almost all crypto folks in captivity.

Roger Ver and now Sam Backman Fried (SBF) parents are trying to get there son out of jail. Through these news I get a chance to see what fraud they have committed according to US department of justice.

SBF has been jailed for 25 years (on March 28,2024) with three years of supervised release and has to pay 11 billion USD because of his involvement in multiple fraudulent schemes. (US Department of Justice)

SBF parents have to present a good deal, if they want there kid out of jail

I personally think that one of the most powerful people in the world, if there is one, is US President Donald Trump.  His word now could be many things like bitcoin and btc all of which could affect some currencies and impose higher tariffs on their opponents.  Such as China, Mexico and their once friendly country Canada.
