Quoting: Anonymous Coward 71088974 Not really anonymous, not BTC.. for example if you take the address in my SIG (which has 0 use so not such a good example but eh) [link to blockchain.info (secure)] Same can be done with any address to examine what is happening with it, and where funds are coming/going, etc There are coins out there being designed around Privacy, but BTC isn't one of them heh The anonymous in the title of the article (which I just cut and paste into the thread title) probably refers to the fact that many of the "big players" are known, using known addresses, etc LTC: Li9AgUVbapPLuqncJaRC5wDQ7HNg69rjkH |

For example I fomo'd the fuck out of ETC today, like a noob, upon hearing that it might spike this week, but maybe it will pay off!

Quoting: RandomS Anonymous trader buys $400 million in bitcoin Published: Feb 16 Go big or go home. That’s the motto of one mysterious investor who put his chips on the table, buying close to $400 million of the No.1 digital currency, bitcoin. The purchase comes as cryptocurrencies are making a comeback after a dreadful start to 2018. Major digital currencies lost as much as 50% to start the year as growing regulation and security fears crippled the market, seeing traders bail on their positions. However, the tide has turned.

Perhaps the first massively public round of the war for the future of finances and who controls the world, between the old rich and the crypto rich.

If that order would hit one shot it would cause the price to go absolutely wild as they buy all of the open orders (each of which is slightly higher than the other, and is often for less than 1 BTC) - that's like 40,000 BTC - if you observed the order books for btc on an exchange chances are there are not even 40,000 available to buy heh Last Edited by RandomS on 02/17/2018 11:51 PM LTC: Li9AgUVbapPLuqncJaRC5wDQ7HNg69rjkH |

Some of us are not concerned with what BTC is actually worth, as long as things are moving up and down all the time, so we can make money off the dips and spikes, like.. the stock market, or the forex market.. same same! Right now everything follows BTC's trends, as the big dawg, but there are a couple that stand to decouple from BTC's value, such as LTC or NEO, and stand on their own, meaning "they" would have to crash many of them.. and they failed to do just one.. so eh.. no problem!

(OP) User ID: 75903425 Canada 02/18/2018 12:33 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | this is exactly how dumbfucks get burnt. Quoting: anonymous4412 news gets out that someone bought a bunch of bitcoin, then the sheep figure they will buy too. in the meantime, this big buyer is selling while the sheep are buying, at higher prices. Hmmm? Well if you are buying and holding, then perhaps, else.. everyone is selling at higher prices.. that's the point! Anyway look, btc went up 5,000$ on it's own, back to 11,000$ levels, and is still raising, before that 400 million purchase.. BTC practically doubled in price naturally, in a month's time. You know, even if it crashes eventually, who cares, get in, make money, get out. Don't be like the people who didn't invest in Google when it was a penny stock!
