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

[OgNasty]

I can’t resist trolling the people who get mad at those who accurately predict what is going to happen.

You're so full of it:

I think a top price between $130K-$170K is most likely, occurring sometime between the beginning of September and the end of November.

Funny how I post here daily and you had to go back half a year to find a prediction I made that was off by 3%!!! That’s your best example of me being full of it? 3% off a multi year high!?! That’s my example of the cope here being out of control already. People even merited that…. LOL. Cope city. How far back you think I’d have to go to find you being hilariously wrong?

Here is an interesting vid from Ben Cowen 5 years ago (price was at 15K).

Bedford law...says that in a series of numbers (like a series of price numbers), you would much more likely to have the price starting with 1 or 2 and much less likely to have a number that starts with 8 or 9.

By this thesis, it is more likely for bitcoin to recover from the current numbers to a number at or above 100K (or alternatively, drop as low as 10-29k-this is just from math perspective, NOT a prediction).

Conclusion: Since all financial things considered numbers for bitcoin price at or above 100k are more likelier than 10-29K, Bedford's law would suggest that regaining numbers that start with 1 (or even 2) would be more likely than not.

In Ben's example, the number of times bitcoin was at a price starting at 1 or 2 was in about 35% cases and 8 and 9 only in about 14% cases (about 2.5X difference).

I like our projected 71.42% chance for regaining vs about 28.58% chance for having a price that starts with 8 or 9.

Let's see how this reference to Bedford's law pans out.

Like Elon Musk, Saylor is also a business man and if one day he decide to quit after getting his share from Bitcoin then what we can to him? Nothing.

Right, you definitely know what Saylor is thinking. Elon can't even commit to his kids, that is why he can't commit to Bitcoin. It has nothing to do with being a businessman.

I don't think Saylor is that much stupid to keep hodling Bitcoin forever.    

And you are too stupid to understand that selling back into fiat is not a solution to anything. Selling back the best money in the entire human history back into hyperinflating fiat like USD. Very smart.

usd is not hyper inflating
it is inflating

hyper inflation is 100% a day

usd is 100% in 27 years or so.

I'm pretty sure that's not how that works.

That's like saying that because of the law of averages, if you just tossed nine heads, your next is likely to be tails. Or that if the last block was ten minutes ago, the next block is imminent.

Bitcoin’s 4-year cycle is broken, and this time, data proves it

Data shows that BTC’s “average annual returns have gradually declined, with no peaks at all in the last cycle, confirming the hypothesis that Bitcoin's risk/return structure has changed.”

I wish I had the ability to stay calm and not panic when I was a newbie. This dip is only making me hungry for more Bitcoin. I feel no fear of monetary loss.

It was not long since I started investing in Bitcoin and as such this bearish period would have make me to panic but the series of encouragement I got from those of you that are old in the system has given me more courage to leverage this bearish period to buy more Bitcoin to my investment portfolio. And going by my research about the volatility of Bitcoin I strongly believe that there is light at end of the tunnel and we shall soon experience bull run so I'm not panic instead I will still buy more Bitcoin and hold it for long term which I strongly believe will give me good return on investment in the future.

That video completely short-circuited my brain. It might as well have been astrology.

btctalk ate my long post, darn it.

Of course, we cannot predict what comes next, but my analysis of the last 5 years (Nov 16 2020 to Nov 16 2025) shows that daily prices that started with 1 and 2 were about 10 times more often than prices that started with 8 or 9 (about 41% vs 4.6%) in a perfect fit to Bedford's law. There were a couple of strange deviations: an abnormally lower number of "7"-only 1.4% (and a bit of a bump in "6").

Here are the numbers (first number on the left, % of daily closings with a price that starts with the number on the left):
1-20.14%
2-20.90
3-13.68
4-14.12
5-8.87
6-12.64 (bump)
7-1.42 (plunge)
8-2.96
9-1.64

I now understand why prognosticators choose numbers like 130, 140, 200 OR 1mil, but rarely 600 or 900K.
It's just more likely, somehow...but it looks like magic at a first glance.

I may analyze the 2015-2025 set later.

EDIT: going forward and then looking back, it seems that this law predicts that in the long time sets with varying prices, there will be more occasions of prices starting with 1 and 2 than 8 and 9. The prices themselves are, of course not predictable by this law.

2015-2025 data (3624 daily closings; again-first digit of the price on the left, percentage of closings-on the right):
1-20.6%
2-12.48
3-11.44
4-13.38
5-7.53
6-13.96
7-6.40
8-6.13
9-8.02

A little smoother, but still a "bump" at 6 and a "plunge" at 7.
1+2=33.08%, but 8+9=17.15%, almost a 2X difference.

Not sure why bitcoin in the last 10 years had more than 2x probability of ending a day with a price that started with 6 vs the price that started with 7.
A mystery. Interestingly, a "bump" at 6 is also visible in the 2009-2020 dataset:
