To the minute eh? The rumors/posting were out hours before the jump, and the lack of any denial from the miners escalates the chance these events were correlated.
p.s. *gasps
Possibly, but the timing no longer coincides well. Also, such a development would surely instill uncertainty, which is not bullish.
p.s. /me performs a tracheotomy to aid your breathing.
A year ago uncertainty was scary, 6 months ago uncertainty was scary, 4 months ago... "individuals" said some nice things and took some pictures, and made a deal they don't intend to keep. Now... well... hell, it almost feels like a relief someone is calling the big bluff.
P.S. murder isn't cool you two
Your version of history is a whole hell-of-a lot of nonsense spinning and grasping at straws.
The reality of the matter is that what had happened 6 months ago, is that BTC prices shot up from $200 to $500.. and this shooting up was in part because of ongoing BTC price suppression that had lasted more than a year, and the price shot up because the bears couldn't really keep it down anymore, inspite of attempts to spread nonsense.. then after the price shot to $500 and came back down a bit of price battling back and forth settled back down into the $360 to $460 range.
I would hardly call that scared uncertainty in the bitcoin space, even though a lot of FUCD was being spread around during those few months that BTC prices floated largely in the $360 to $460 range.
Yeah, sure, four months ago, we got some additional FUCD spreading... coupled with rage quitting and hyperbole.. . but really, by the time mid-to-end of May came along. ... and even with the fairly heavy Ethereum pumping, folks began to realize that bitcoin really is not broken as had been hyped and continued to be hyped by marginal loud mouth nonsense spreading shills...
Anyhow, in late May, we broke passed $500, and there is considerable amount of difficulties for bears and anti-bitcoiners in attempting to put the genie back in the bottle and to attempt to get BTC prices to go back down, below $500 would be good for these kinds of anti-bitcoin folks...
So, upward we go, and upward pressure we continue to experience, and surely it wouldn't be a good time to be a bear under current market upwards price pressures, no?
Something to add to the picture is that with all the talk of the halving, EVERYTHING to this point and till the halving is speculation. The real halving will occur when the daily supply is halved. So, the months following Friday the 8th or so, will really show us the affects. We have to consider if selling of existing coins will be able to make up the difference in the lowered supply and I really really doubt it will.
