Sometimes,

I wonder if all "the whale is going do to this, and whale does that talk" is either from desperate traders or its a whale, smart enough to act like a concerned trader.

From what I've gathered most on these forums, is that anyone on bitcointalk (especially in the altcoin section) is desperate for attention or any thing that makes them seem "more wise" than the next person. Fact is, is that no one knows what EVERYONE is doing; and even if they were in some "secret whale group" that can possibly manipulate the market, there is plenty of other whales that can possibly manipulate too.

I love how a lot of people say that they know some whale that is going to do something in the market, and then argues back and forth with other shit posters about who's whale is going to "win". If you really knew someone is going to do a huge sell or a huge buy, you wouldn't proclaim it... you would quietly buy/sell, sit back and watch.

Precisely my impression of most of the useless posts in this thread. Cheesy

You said it, not me.

I would not relish lacking any desire or ability to actually be working on development of something and instead expending my days watching bid / ask walls, which in the following context seems to be akin to watching paint dry or counting the mosquitos inside my grass hut.

Speculation is a productive activity. Even day trading is productive in the sense of providing liquidity. But pretending to be a day trader while being a conflicted shill (i.e. entirely handicapped from pursuing arbitrage), seems to be entirely pointless and/or some sort of objectiveless affliction of the incapable.
