Being a relatively newer BTC fan, I though I'd visit a few random pages of the past in this HUUUUGE thread and see the reactions of people from past rallies and selloffs, so here are some quotes, enjoy! Wink

So long as there are entities with 10k+ btc it seems risky to me to be holding btc for any significant length of time during the start of a downtrend.

Agreed ... thats why I prefer to take a small loss and walk away than to sit with a position that was intended to be short term and did not pan out

(This is golden!!)

So now almost everyone is a bear? Investor cycle says we are going up then. Tongue

And on May 6th it indeed went up at 123$, but on May 8th it fell a bit at 112$ and...

Shorting BTC is starting to be available on different platforms. When that spreads, we will see more downward pressure.

I am shorting it... and I know it will fall. Its just making all of you a fool

There is no BTC reality. Currency value equals to amount of gold it holds. BTC has nothing to back itself. No Equity. Pure liquid capital investement. When the anonymous japanese runs away with all your money.... people will cry here

On November we had a huge rally without a correction; On November 9th BTC was at 359$.
(Some articles praised BTC as a great investment)

Why not pour some petrol on the fire:

"Interest in the Bitcoin Investment Trust is coming from technology entrepreneurs, family offices and people on Wall Street. Some family offices are beginning to put a portion of their gold allocation into bitcoin Silbert said. "

On November 19th BTC hits a peak of 750$. People were mixed back then.

Bears want this rally to be like April. What they forget is that if this is like that rally, we are headed for well over $1k.

Quote from: Nightowlace on November 18, 2013, 06:53:08 PM

Ok, I bought back in.

BTC crash in 3.....2......1....

And the next day it crashed to 482$!

Is this the final blow to bitcoin?

Quote from: TERA on November 20, 2013, 08:56:34 AM

Have we officially gone now from correction to full blown bubble collapse?

Quote from: TERA on November 20, 2013, 09:06:38 AM

Right now people are clinging for dear life onto the crazy november trendline. I guess when that breaks.. we go to the october trendline? That would be around $300.

However these were 1 to 2 days sell-offs, not a year long bear market like today. People use to be optimistic when the sell-off lasts a few hours or a week.
Even though I've selected some posts that show a sentiment opposite to the price's direction following a few days later, many others were showing an optimism after every dip.

Where did all those old timers go? Tera is the only one I have seen here recently, and even she is gone now.
