Would that be possible ?
Ive read that a few people own 40 % of bitcoins
Couldnt they just sell a few, which will cause the price to decrease, then wait until the price rebounds and sell a few more .
And they sell when the price if higher and buy back when the price has fallen
It would be quite easy to manipulate

in case anyone wondering when the top was (and just before the bottom fell out), the following post was made on 18 december @~ 6:00 PM thai time when BTC was trading at $19,000...

Prolly followed my advice.

That said, prolly around that same price now. Made 42% in the alts for the 3 days following.

Buffett partner Charlie Munger says bitcoin is ‘total insanity,’ avoid it ‘like the plague’

• "I think it is perfectly asinine to even pause to think about them," Munger says.
• "It's bad people, crazy bubble, bad idea, luring people into the concept of easy wealth without much insight or work,"
• Warren Buffett's right-hand man says at a University of Michigan Ross School of Business event.

When you say 'made' does that mean you actually sold and banked the profits or just a paper gain?

Yup, just chatting with a mate that started the same time as me, gonna be in them (BTC and Alts) for a year or so, he's hoping for 7k by the morning so can buy 4 or 5 coins

Why doesnt he just go into loan sharking?
He could probably find a few customers on here before Xmas

Balcony jumping postponed seems to have been a bit of a bounce back to only £100 paper loss now.

So it has my account that consists of 2 LTC now showing a value of £322 and to think I paid including charges £473, if I wasn't on the ground floor in the pub jumping I would be.

I'm not going to get upset over a £500 bet which I have on sports matches which if I lose is over in 90 minutes, here is fun. I'm fascinated by the whole crypto thing and now it's a bit of fun with some skin in the game. I would have a lot more skin in the game but for reasons unbeknown to me coinbase are saying I can only gamble £500 a week. I wanted 10+ LTC so at least the price movements would be interesting in terms of paper profit/loss but guess I'll just have to gradually build a position over next few months.

Numbers in for Lulu's BTC and Alts empire:

20th: 16.5%
21st: 11%
22nd: 7%
23rd: -11.5%


The Alts by themselves were 20.9% and 14.9% on the 20th and 21st. Bladdy BTC dragging me down.

My thoughts exactly, kind of sounds like you would have bet the same as me or thereabouts if you had been able which was still nothing serious end of the day. Although it is half a year's salary if you're a broke TEFL'er like Ray or even more if you live in mom's basement like Butters

Oh also if you wire the money directly from your bank into your coinbase account you can bet more/as much as you like. Takes about a day to get from your bank to your CB account

I want 10-20 LTC so can trade the fuckers and it's worthwhile doing where as currently sat holding 2 LTC which is pretty pointless, just amusing.

Yeah its not very clear on the website but if you select the "wire funds" option and wire directly from your bank you can pretty much trade as much as you like.

Buy them back now. Look at the last hour.
