Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

I bought my first coins back in 2013, and I am a permabull / maximalist. HOWEVER, it looks like we're entering a multi-year bear market.

You attached a week old youtube clip interview of Richard Heart rage quitting BTC.. and pumping ETH and pumping his new alt coin...

Just because he proclaims a bunch of whiny bullshit, just like Mike Hearn whined about a few things in early 2016, and Mike Hearns rage quit did not cause BTC to fall or fail, merely because he said it....

Similarly here with Richard Heart... he seems to be very emotional and there are a lot fo folks who are confused by his sudden change and sentiment that seems to be based on feelings (and perhaps bias) rather than actual fundamentals or logic.

He probably "lost" a couple million and is now suicidal due to lack of foresight and understanding. "Lightning is online" (no it's fucking not). He either doesn't know what he's talking about or it's like you're suggesting and he's trying to manipulate markets. Without any success.

I understand that he has been a trusted and even a very strong voice in the past with a lot of no bullshit frank talk in support of bitcoin, but that interview came off as overly emotional and he lost something before or during the interview, and he was having difficultles holding it together or coming off as reasonable.

I've never heard of the guy, but if he used to be "no bullshit frank" then he certainly wasn't in this interview (at least not in the ~10 minutes that I've bothered watching). Not a single rational point that goes beyond the usual buzzword parroting that can often be found in other places on this forum or around "elite Economists". Has he been around for a while or did he just pop out of nowhere recently? If it's the former I don't really understand how you could make a polar flip even though the fundamentals haven't changed, certainly not for the worse.
