Seems like $26,000 is the new steady-state price... For how long? "Please, Bitcoin, do something!" etc., etc.

It always locks on round numbers. Must be human psychology. Would be interesting to see the price lock at $26,450 for a change. Or, even better, lock at $264,500.
(Most) folks just tend to be drawn to simplicity.
I confess, me too. "Buy and hodl" is my favourite  Cheesy
Back in the early days, I used to set limit prices based on the digits of Pi or other math constant. Like $314.159. It was fun to spot the transaction as it went through in the order book. Now I just do round numbers like the rest of us.

PS: This could even be an OPSEC issue I guess (but I bet there are many more OCD types out there)...
Yep, all my buy prices end in XXXXX.88

If you see those on the buy books, you know it is me! Smiley

About a year ago, Bitstamp disallowed placing orders that use cents, and therefore we ONLY get round numbers and no decimal places with them.  Personally i don't like that decision of theirs.

Gayest thing ever 😆

You should know.



I am developing a short-attention-span from all the merit parasites and their empty white noise posts.

True dat!

And of course I miss @proudhon.
@proudhon, where art thou?

You're just worried about the receipt of your "proudhon gift."

I get the sense that you do not "really" and "truly" like him.

bitcoin is flat, though...who of OGs is the most responsible for it?

Blame Philipma1957.  At this particular moment, I cannot think of any candidate more eligible.

There is no answer, but in the old old times, when there was no rain, they always found a witch/warlock whodunit and sacrifice her/him for the "greater good".
Sometimes it 'worked', too.

I would not want phil to be sacrificed.. especially since he does not have very many years left.. I mean maybe 2062 at the outside of things.

I tell you what if I make it to 2062 I will personally give you 0.0105 BTC.

 In fact I will deposit it right now.
