donnacha Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Just now, ChipButty said: Bitcoin Price Remains In Strong Uptrend After a strong close above the $55,000 level, bitcoin price extended its upward move. BTC broke the $56,000 and $57,000 resistance levels. It even cleared the $58,000 level and traded to a new all-time high at $58,350. That's a bit out of date, currently back down to $48,500 ????

The shares of Poseidon had risen to a staggering 125x in value and crossed $100 per share mark, even though months before they were trading at a measly $0.8 per share. Later, the Poseidon share came close to the $200 mark and some brokers had an astronomical target price of over $350 on the Poseidon stock. Mayhem ensued in the Australian markets after Poseidon crashed. The Australian government was propelled into action as bitter investors started blaming the government for the lack of regulation present in the market. The government responded to the public clamor by creating a better regulatory mechanism that would ensure that no more bubbles like the Poseidon bubble were allowed to flourish in the markets. The question is, are Cryptocurrencies such as the likes of Bitcoin regulated ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwikeith Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 13 hours ago, donnacha said: An entire article that can be summed up in three words: Bitcoin is volatile. Every rise is followed by a fallback but it doesn't matter as long as the floor keeps steadily rising, week after week. Currently, at $54,700 it is 5% below its 24hr high, but 13% up on the week, 70% up on the month, about 100% up since the start of this year, and 450% up on the year. Don't invest in Bitcoin if you need to take your money out tomorrow but, if you invest for the general rise over the next year or two, you will do fine. Just Tesla and the boys having a bit of fun gambling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Cryptocurrencies basically have no value," he said. "You can't do anything with it except sell it to somebody else." fdsa has famously said that he will touch shares. "Shares do have a value unlike the cryptocurrencies", he said.

I seriously doubt fdsa really believes that Bitcoin can't be exchanged for fiat or pretty much anything else. The fact that he/she has internet access suggests that they would be aware of the hundreds of crypto exchanges around the world, Paypal, Square, Coinbase, bitcoin ATMs, etc. (unless the one site he/she uses is the TV forum and the only people he believes are the eight guys whose primary financial focus is 17th century tulip market and something about emperor's new clothes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fdsa Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Could you walk into the bank with Bitcoins and say "please give me cash for these digits on my computer"? - no, you can only sell these digits to some other person. - so Bitcoins == tulips.

Not in the high street banks....you still need to sell on an exchange and then do a wire Banks like 'BNY Mellon' and 'Bordier & Cie' (an old Swiss private bank) are already actively pursuing Bitcoin related business, it won't be the bank with retail branches but sure, it's coming. You know the kind of bank I'm talking about, the banks that only the wealthy use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of Tulips, here's a few notable bubbles over the centuries, the whole Tulip thing was nothing more than a 3 year blip. There's one very interesting thing about this little chart...the bubbles, once popped did not go on to 'rise again', that's where Bitcoin differs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
