ThickAsThieves: blockchain.info was hit with ddos to their servers that are supposed to be hidden by cloudlfare
sturles: Cloudflare error messages from the MtGox API isn't a good sign. DDoS again? Prepare for impact?
ThickAsThieves: just tinfoilhatting big time
Sinbios: [08:40:04] <Sinbios> just be prepared that it might disappear at any time and act accordingly
ThickAsThieves: to blink them away as a hint
ThickAsThieves: but i dont think they are that dumb to be that obvious
ThickAsThieves: i guess some hard advice can be made from this theory, if you see those walls at 80 and 70 disappear, watch out
Sinbios: good thing i don't have to deal with it
ThickAsThieves: like i said, it's theory, deal with it or go home
Sinbios: like i said, it's 100% manipulation. it's the nature of this market, deal with it or go home
ThickAsThieves: these arent walls that started at 1 and grew
ThickAsThieves: occam told me no coincidence here
ThickAsThieves: if i am right, i think the only possible outcome is a big crash when the manipulator gets to the point where he barely has enoush coins to control a crash
orkaa: i've got to find this
ThickAsThieves: will take me a long time to get it out
ThickAsThieves: i have too much cash there
ThickAsThieves: if it IS gox, i'm not sure i'd even want to know
ThickAsThieves: and then have them be so convinced they actually react
ThickAsThieves: yo'd have to convince most people
ThickAsThieves: yes, the person must be a functional member of the economy

ThickAsThieves: and tore it down
ThickAsThieves: i have done this kind of thing with stocks on bitfunder
Scrat: in fact im always trolling
Scrat: im just trolling
ThickAsThieves: playing this game is very easy
ThickAsThieves: if you have that much resource
ThickAsThieves: 2. it doesnt take THAT much skil
ThickAsThieves: 1. it doesnt HAVE to be gox
troc: share more thoughts or evidence ?
ThickAsThieves: and its at the point where i want to share more
ThickAsThieves: ive been talking about this with others for a couple days now
Sinbios: i'm guessing most people are going with the latter, which might be why you don't get any replies when you ask if you're crazy
ThickAsThieves: i'm just excited to hash out my theory
Sinbios: i mean stop caring that it might be manipulation, because it is 100% manipulation
Sinbios: because it's pointless speculating and you're just going to whip yourself into an anxious frenzy
ThickAsThieves: so as i do what you just told me to do
Sinbios: just be prepared that it might disappear at any time and act accordingly
Sinbios: ThickAsThieves: who cares? maybe it's some guy with deep pockets who thinks it's actually worth 70 and now 80 a coin
Scrat: I have a theory xenu might be buying btc, so yes
ThickAsThieves: is the whether and when
ThickAsThieves: my point isnt to be high-minded
Sinbios: god's not falsifiable either, are you speculating it's god keeping the price up
ThickAsThieves: then it grew to 20k
ThickAsThieves: dont you remember how 2 days ago we were at about 70, then a 15k wall appeared?
Scrat: if the latter is true we're in deep shit
Sinbios: who said it's the exchange?
Scrat: whale vs. the exchange themselves
Scrat: Sinbios: there's a big difference
ThickAsThieves: there is no reason other than manip, to make bid walls that big
ThickAsThieves: i'm not crazy about that am i?
ThickAsThieves: but cmon you guys have to see that this price is constructed
Scrat: only top management would know
ThickAsThieves: they can simply play with whatever the average balance is
Scrat: they can change a value in the database
Scrat: if it's gox they dont even need to hold anything
ThickAsThieves: they know exactly how many coins are needed to crash it to any price
ThickAsThieves: if they know they make up a certain % of bidbook
ThickAsThieves: the manipulator would need to hold maybe 500k coins
ThickAsThieves: you get everyone to cash out
Sinbios: i don't understand what you're trying to say. what crash coins?
Scrat: how do you prove that an exchange is manipulating the price, provided that they are doing it right
ThickAsThieves: they could do anything they want
ThickAsThieves: the more control they have at the bottom
ThickAsThieves: the more cash they get for the crash coins
Sinbios: ThickAsThieves: ...then what incentive does that person have to hold the price up instead of just letting it fall to $0.01 and buy it up then
ThickAsThieves: maybe they are using all the fees you pay them to control price
ThickAsThieves: gox has made more than that no?
Scrat: would take a lot of balls to have 10million on gox
gribble: There are currently 189923.91 bitcoins demanded at or over 50.0 USD, worth 12726343.8662 USD in total. | Data vintage: 0.0065 seconds
ThickAsThieves: no way to know
ThickAsThieves: but i'm just trying to make sense of this manip
deadweasel: to where tho? 70? 50?
ThickAsThieves: which means the crash could come sooner than later
ThickAsThieves: is that he doesnt have enough coins to crash it at a higher price
taub: i dont really like to think about that future where fiat breaks down, dont think it will be non violent
ThickAsThieves: the only reason to hold the price up, but under 100
taub: you dont need bitcoin to kill fiat, fiat will kill itself the way it's going
ThickAsThieves: holding enough coins to be able remove all bids
taub: and i dont think fiat currencies can live forever when all central banks are printing money like crazy
ThickAsThieves: what i think is that someone is manipulating, making up a large % of bid book,
taub: market has been kinda shaking, especially this week
deadweasel: truffles: i agree, we see the internal rot, but nationstates power will remain in our lifetimes.
Scrat: truffles: you'd be surprised at how fast things move nowadays
ThickAsThieves: this manipulator WILL spend these dollars, and it WON'T be at these prices he constructed
ThickAsThieves: i think another big crash is coming
ThickAsThieves: for 2 or 3 days, someone has been constructing this price, yet not letting it break the overall downward trend
Chaang-Noi: yes the bid walls can give up waiting and buy, but we were just at $50, why but now?
taub: and even most of europeans trade it in usd i think
ThickAsThieves: how much of this bidbook can disappear on a whim?
Chaang-Noi: the volume is mostly in usd, but the euro market and even yuan market will drag the dollar price around
ThickAsThieves: sinbios, thats what i['m getting at
taub: it's just that the biggest market is in dollars
taub: you can also buy them with euros truffles
Sinbios: if those disappear for whatever reason 50 isn't out of reach
Sinbios: there are only two big bid orders, one at 80 and one at 70
ThickAsThieves: but why is that buyer propping price up, rather than buying?
Chaang-Noi: double bottem was tested
Chaang-Noi: 175,000 coins to $50
ThickAsThieves: so many of those dollars are articial floors
