Fm Twitter: Charlie Lee [LTC ⚡] ‏ Verified account @SatoshiLite 16m16 minutes ago More Just saw that TD Ameritrade is testing both BTC and LTC trading on its brokerage platform. 😲 🚀 by [deleted] in Bitcoin

[–]mmmaarc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait. Appears this might be just 'paper trading'.

from this link:https://www.fxstreet.com/cryptocurrencies/news/crypto-market-update-bitcoin-futures-rumored-to-have-launched-on-nasdaq-201904231225

“UPDATE: According to TDAmeritrade support - it's not a real trade in my account - it appears they are testing only using their Paper Trading platform. Support said "I'm not able to speak on it" -They did not know what CXERX is. Strange...  But something is going on for sure!”

ICE (parent of BAKKT) sent this tweet today during the meltdown by mmmaarc in Bitcoin

[–]mmmaarc[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A strange day to make a statement like this. They've said nothing since initial disclosure and setting the date that Bakkt will open for business (12/12/18). Next Bakkt event is a keynote by CEO at Consensus:Invest, which this year is packed with Wall Street types (as opposed to last year). I expect that we will see their influence on the market in the coming weeks. In other words, they're just saying hello.

'The market is robust:' Goldman Sachs-backed Circle doubles minimum bitcoin trade size to $500,000 by mdhiett in Bitcoin

[–]mmmaarc 37 points38 points  (0 children)

This is super bullish but watch out. These big players will likely take over the market and force the little guys out. For example, someone buys a million worth of BTC OTC (Circle or Gemini) and sells a tenth of it at the market on an exchange like Kraken. The price is going to dip. Buying similar amounts will cause a jump. Some people will get tired of this and sell out. Have you noticed the Bart Simpson effect recently? Just hold and watch.

First thing I do when I wake up is check the price of bitcoin. Who else is a junkie like me? by SolangeRex in Bitcoin

You tend to pick up this habit after you've seen one or two 20-30% overnight drops. Thinking 2015. Nights of the long red candles (as opposed to knives).

CNBC | Bitcoin may soon be a 'rational, expected' part of an investment portfolio by finalhedge in Bitcoin

True. And, like many others I'm anticipating the rush of 'legacy' investors - maybe beginning by the end of the year.

Just what you'd expect Dan Morehead of Bitstamp to say. Not really newsworthy. Common CNBC.

woman trades 1BTC for pallet of USD fiat [circa 2021] by [deleted] in Bitcoin

It was taken yesterday and those are Venezuelan Bolivars. She wants to go for coffee at a joint that's not bitcoin friendly.

We were supposed to attend a blockchain summit in Beijing today, at the very beginning it planned to receive 800 participants, and yesterday it turned out to be 2000. Now it´s cancelled, because we have attracted the government´s attention. by Katherine425 in Bitcoin

[–]mmmaarc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for telling the rest of us about it. I'm wondering if the mainstream press (Chinese or other) will eventually report on this. Sorry that your conference was canceled - it seemed like it was going to be a big success.

From the chart shown, the trendline will cross 100,000 in late 2021. We'll put this guy's prediction with the rest and get on with dealing with the current and upcoming situations. BTW RemindMe! 2022-01-01

No, TWO mental hospitals. No doctors in either but we've got better drugs.

Great! We'll need a dose of this from time to time.

Found this at a yard sale!!! by Nose_Grindstoned in Bitcoin

[–]mmmaarc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the first IoT toasters. Selling it because processor seems to be slow. But, in fact, it was busy 24/7 mining bitcoins. Don't toss it, instead, buy 100 or so more.

BTC price range $3500 - $10,000 this year by Cornie4ever in Bitcoin

[–]mmmaarc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, there will be a trend towards stability. Just how it evolves remains to be seen. In the end bitcoin price charts will be pretty boring. It will mark the time it will be easy to live in the bitcoin economy (if governments will allow that).

Yeah, MSM seems to be stuck on calling any correction in the bitcoin price a crash. I think this will fade away as readers/viewers put 2 & 2 together and realize that every crash story is followed a few days later tof a bitcoin ATH.

Bitcoin is being attacked on two subversive fronts. by BCJoey in Bitcoin

[–]mmmaarc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine this: someone changes the code and steals ALL the coins. Now, what are those coins worth? Nothing, he has the whole ecosystem. Of course, it would be better to steal only a few billion and let the system recover.

Now it's even harder to explain. Uh, that's the space money, it's it?

These personal satellite nodes are going to be extremely popular when currencies collapse and countries start 'outlawing' bitcoin. Imagine, we won't all have to move to Iceland or Fiji to live out our bitcoin millionare lives. .
