$ (BTC) The Bitcoin Thread - NO SHITCOINERS ALLOWED

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Missed on the buyback, I think buying back at 16 or so would have been alright but I can't get excited about 17+. I guess I'll wait and see if it stagnates and swings down again, volume's dropped off a bit so who knows. I've learned not to expect any kind of short term pattern from this shit, it's only understandable in a buy low/sell high frame.
 
It's back at 19.5K

Gonna coom when it finally decides to cross the ATH.
 
Oh wow, I missed that completely.

Barring bogdanof shenanigans, it's looking like 2021 is going to be really good for crypto.
Take a look at a yearly candlestick chart if you can find one (most charts only go up to monthly; I saw a pic of a yearly on twitter but can't find the tweet now). If it's any real predictor, that nut you're going to bust at ATH will fill a swimming pool by end of next year.
 
Agree, next year will be amaing, you will regret you didn't bought bitcoin when it was at 3k.
but it is too early to celebrate, do it when it reaches 100k, is only 5 times the current price, you know bitcoin can do 5x in a few years.

Used coinmama to buy a small amount of BTC. Paid for $50 worth and received $36.00 worth after fees. I know coinmama and their processor take around a 5% cut, but this was almost a 30% fee. WTF

I know with Coinbase if you straight buy BTC for cash, aside from the small fee, you're also paying a premium on top of that. Probably something like they don't want to sell it for $X and then have the market price spike before the transaction completes, thereby losing them money. Even with precious metals, if you buy or sell bullion at a shop, you'll always pay more (or receive less) than the spot price. I detailed what I found to be the cheapest way to buy BTC for "cash" here.

Thanks, but I got booted from coin base. I got a Gemini account, but their hold times suck.

How'd you manage that? I know they kick you off if you cash out from a gambling site or buy in directly from your Coinbase account. Once accidentally cashed out directly to a Coinbase account but managed to cancel it before it confirmed.
 
Probably from sending to null’s public BTC address. Didn’t know it was watched until it was too late. Sucks cause I had used them enough to where they’d give me BTC minutes after buying from a BTC friendly bank and with low fees.

Always withdraw to a private wallet before doing anything remotely sketchy.
 
I've been mulling over whether or not it'd be worth having a small stash of BTC/ETH/XMR for the sake of at least having some crypto set aside to buy goods/services in relative anonymity. Only real problem is that exchanges have so thoroughly saturated the cryptosphere to the point where it's downright infuriating.

I know options like LocalBitcoin and LocalMonero are a thing, but does the same apply for stuff like ETH? More to the point, is it even worth just having a pile of BTC lying around for "anonymous" purchases if the entire ledger is a matter of public record?

for "anonymous" purchases i have some coins in WASABI wallet, is handy and easy to use, the only problem is that you need 0.1 BTC to be able to mix.
or you can have some coins on electrum or another wallet like it and then use a friendly anon exchange with tor to wash your coins a little bit.
Tradeogre is good, works very well with tor and is fast and easy, no kyc.
