RE: 70/280 DMA Death Cross today. The Bitcoin crash pattern continues to unfold. Buckle your sphincters...

in #bitcoin6 years ago

I can almost guarantee BCH will never exceed the price of Bitcoin... especially with the amount of advertising Roger Ver does for Bitcoin Cash with still no major upward movement in price 🤣🤣.

I believe the price will not go lower than $7,000. Too much positive news ahead of us for a bull...especially with goldman sachs starting a trading desk for Bitcoin. 🚀🚀

Sort:  

It could stop at 7200 if the bullish scenario is unfolding. 60-40 in favor of the bears here IMO. Look at the 12h with volume enabled. If it was bullish, volume on the price rallies would climax at at the end of the rally. Instead we see volume fall away while the price rises - the behavior typically observed in corrections. We are correcting to the upside in a larger bear market, which of course itself is within a much larger bull market.

It's an unfortunate result of the fact that no one among the Core Devs knows economics or understands game theory and incentive structures. Trying to create the future of money with "the best cryptographers in the world" but without anyone who understands economics is the equivalent of trying to build a skyscraper with the best interior designers in the world but no architects or structural engineers. The absolute train wreck that was the "fee market" is a direct result of their approach. Unless, of course, it was intentional and malicious - I can think of 71 151 million reasons that might be the case.

If this thing isn't just a bubble, then the coin that gets adopted will win in the end. The coin that gets adopted in the end will be the one that is useful as money, with predictably low fees. Bitcoin trading desks can become Cryptocurrency desks - and will, if the market demands it. For BTC to become a store of value it needs to be adopted as money, it won't just become a store of value right away. Gold is a store of value as a result of it's multi-millenia track record of being exceptionally useful as analog money. It's unlikely to work the other way around, mainly because adoption of it as money is what will eventually stabilize the price (probably after price discovery works itself out more) by giving the market much greater depth.

Roger Ver

Mentioning him with an obviously negative connotation in this context is a straw man followed up with ad hominem.

That's the thing "it could" We could use that for numerous amount of scenarios. Bitcoin could go to $100,000. Bitcoin could go to 1 million. Even with the volume indicators, which doesn't hurt to display...But if news comes out that Bitcoin is going to plummet because a Billionaire said something bad about the coin, it wouldn't impact it.

As far the trading desk, it could be held as a security such as Gold, stocks, etc... not just as store value. Billionaires most likely wouldn't mind dumping in millions or 100s of millions of dollars in Bitcoin knowing that there rent will still be covered, and all their expenses are paid forever covered.

As far as the coins adopted, I agree not all coins will survive, but there will be coins that will survive in certain industries, which is what's fascinating about crypto. The blockchain technology could be used in many different industries. The total market cap of Gold is at roughly 7.8 trillion which is an insurmountable amount, but if Cryptocurrency reached a market cap of $700 billion in a month, who's to say that crypto can't reach the market cap of trillions anytime soon, especially knowing that most of the population isn't informed about it.
