No, she did not kill me. I think she would have, if I hadn't woken up. It was one of the rare cases where I could remember every little detail. I guess that was because I woke up from the dream itself, so it was all fresh in my mind, and I went through the story when awake, so I could not forget it. Yes, I do remember the opening scene of Ghost Ship (2002), and yes, it fits my dream perfectly, good catch. The cut on her neck was really clean and there was no blood, just the slow changing of color to deep purple. That color change was the scariest part. It makes me cringe just by thinking about it.

Damn, I feel bad now. I cannot unsee this.

Your dream was scary too. Sandpaper on live skin. Ouch!

"there are signs"

This is not just naive, it's arrogance mixed with idiocy.
As many sanctions do hit the ordinary russian people way more than the russian government/system, LG is just harrassing these people, who are just trying to save their savings. Seems like some politicians think it's a good idea to divide the russian people to turn against Putin and solve the problem by revolting, though history is teaching us that people tend to unite and stand together even stronger in times of "foreign pressure".


Europe is not that big of a player in BTC, though.
If i'd be a conspiracy theorist, i'd be eager to think that the US is trying to convince EU in their plans banning crypto, and if the EU actually does (tries to), the US "regulatively" opens the crypto market to take advantage of the crypto vacuum in the EU. 

You nailed it.

That is the point, groobment will take it the same way they will take money in bank accounts. Exchanges are junk, even worse than banks.
After some many years someone still have money on exchange deserves to loose it.

Not very good at posting links on my phone, but if someone wants to pretty this up it's a good article.

Well fillippone, if we use your forum registration date of February 2018 as your approximate "date into bitcoin," it seems to me that you got into bitcoin at a similar point in the cycle as me, albiet 4 years after me.  By the way, your time in bitcoin is slightly more than a full 4-year cycle.... which surely should be enough to put you in some level of profitability and psychological comfort - even if your investment amounts might have been relatively small or mediocre.

I understand that peeps have differing starting points, so one of my conceded advantages would have been that at the time that I got in, I had both a lump sum that I could invest, and I had a decently ongoing cashflow. I understand that some folks (normies) might not have had been at a stage in their life to have a lump sum or their cashflow might be a wee bit lacking...

By the way, I am going to presume that cashflow and availability of lump are the main factors that could have caused significant/material difference - and that psychology was significantly similar in terms of at least recognizing the bullish case for bitcoin at the time of getting started in this forum (maybe not fully developed, but sufficiently developed in order to recognize/appreciate bitcoin's investment thesis).

Let's just presume worser case scenarios for sufficiency of cashflow and mostly non-existence of any significant lump sum, then between about February 2018 and April 2020, the bare minimum investment would have been averaging about $10 per week, and so surely the bare minimum range for investing into bitcoin would have been between $10-$100 per week.   

Once the circumstances of March 2020 happened, and the significance became somewhat apparent within a month or two, by the time we got to May 2020, anyway  half-way cognizant bitcoiner (surely you would fit into such category, fillippone), should have recognized that the minimum bitcoin investment amount would have gone up from $10 per week to $100 per week  (therefore the minimum investment range would have gone up to $100 to $500 per week) - even though maybe whatever your entry-level fuck you status level would have merely doubled.. so hypothetically from $1 million to $2 million in the standard/default case.

Your level of knowledge about bitcoin and your involvement with bitcoin (including within this thread) will contribute towards a justification of my batslapping you (even if merely virtually), if you had not at least on average been investing the bare minimum amounts, so I am going to proclaim that there should have been a bit more than $1,000 invested under the lower bare minimum thresholds of $10 per week for the first half of the four-year period, and $10k invested in the second half of the four year period, under the higher $100 per week minimum investment thresholds.

If you had only invested $10 per week for the whole time, you would at least be at around 0.21BTC which is our current newbie target BTC accumulation... so surely, you should have already become a whole coiner by now and perhaps even going over 2 coins under the minimum requirements.

Now, since I do not necessarily know your details, and I surely do not want you to give up too much OPsec beyond your having already had provided your keys with the various bolt/washer disclosures that you have already made.  In other words, I can give you some benefit of the doubt to presume that you have likely already met the on average minimum guidelines above, and you are just being too hard upon yourself because you consider that you are likely not going to be reaching fuck you status for a decent amount of time, which may well be true that you have some working years in front of you, but you are quite likely on a way better course in your future by having had involved yourself in some kind of level of "meaningful"** bitcoin investment, hopefully.

**please note, when I am proscribing various minimum BTC investment levels, I am presuming a certain level of affluence and ability to figure out how to organize oneself to reach such minimum BTC investment threshold levels - even though at the same time, for sure guys/newbies into bitcoin, need to do what they can in terms of making sure that they are not over-extending themselves, even in such a likely to be great (asymmetrical) investment like bitcoin.

TLDR: I suppose the essence of what I am suggesting would be that anyone who had been sufficiently involved in learning about bitcoin for the past 4 years, should have been able to achieve a minimum accumulation of BTC that should be anywhere between 0.21BTC to 2.1BTC over those past four years, even if a decent number of mistakes had been made along the way... not meaning to be too judgmental  - but just providing a kind of guide post for expectations for at least attempting to reach the minimums... even though we would not necessarily be able to make up for some of the mistakes in the past in the event that we had not even been able to reach the guidepost minimums as I have suggested above.... actually, for OPsec sake we do not even need to concede any kind of exactitude regarding whether we have actually met such minimum investment levels - and by the way, for someone cognizantly aware of bitcoin getting in at my time (4-years longer than you, fillippone), the likely minimum thresholds should be in the ballpark of about 10x more than your minimum thresholds.. and I am not even proclaiming the extent to which I have currently reached such minimum thresholds or in the past to have had reached such thresholds.. in spite of mistakes having had been made along the way.

P.S. Shorters, are you reading? So far only about 10% were purchased.  Good luck with the 100x leverage!

This is the reason you are failing when it comes to TA, you are not ANALYZING shit! and i am surprised no one is calling you out on this!

You have not analysis anything! Because if you did you wouldn't have posted the above!

You looked at a chart and thought o' yeah, 52% down, 108% up is needed to reach parity!.. and thought you discovered another pattern!

100% Down needs to be 200% up! WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!

100% Down means ZERO!!!!!! 200% Going UP from ZERO is ZERO! There is no pattern to be found! you just so happen to pick a ratio at ~52%

I'll break it down even more for you!

ATH Price    Current    Down %   % Up
$60,000   $60,000   0.00%     0.00%
$60,000   $55,000   8.33%    9.09%
$60,000   $50,000   16.67%   20.00%
$60,000   $45,000   25.00%   33.33%
$60,000   $40,000   33.33%   50.00%
$60,000   $35,000   41.67%   71.43%
$60,000   $30,000   50.00%   100%
$60,000   $25,000   58.33%   140%
$60,000   $20,000   66.67%   200%
$60,000   $15,000   75.00%   300%
$60,000   $10,000   83.33%   500%
$60,000   $5,000   91.67%   1,100%
$60,000   $0        100%   N/A

As you can see a 91.67% down from ATH Price, requires 1,100% appreciation to reach back to ATH price.

If you had bothered to use simple mathematics i wouldn't have to call you out on this!

This has always been your problem, you are too quick to jump to conclusions without analysis anything, and start stringing off TA rhetoric and one liners like the above with out any thought and expect people to buy it!...

hmmm.....
