Evening all. I'm an irregular poster here (but got a decent holding).
Looking at the Blockchain.com charts this evening, things are looking pretty peachy for the end of month update. My only concern today is how far the FUD can spread really quickly. The Binance story seems to have been a 'fart in the wind' but it definitely had a pop at the BTC spot at the time. Interesting learnings though.
Reckon that BTC seems to be locked into a bottom test of 56k over the weekend, which i find amazing considering i've been in since 2k. Don't see a 60K test yet.
Anyway, in six months, today's ARB close is going to be a dot on the landscape in the rear view....
ATB and keep HODL-in

Golden cross is just about to happen. Excellent marker for the bulls to push on north.

$53,200

Almighty tussle going on over BTC at 50k. Interesting if this breaks above on the 4hr chart at 8am.

Terrific stuff in today's RNS. I'm expecting to see Peter's phone being pretty busy with researchers/booking agents to get him onto the media to talk about his salary announcement. All great PR as everyone says.
Looks like BTC looking to test resistance at 50k again. If it can pass 52k, it could really make a serious move north. Exciting times here!

Agree with all of that.
Check out the one hour chart as of now. Amazing, picture-perfect hammer just formed up to 3pm and crazy volume in the last hour.

My final thought of the evening is this. Saylor's argument around property/BTC is the most compelling. We are entering into a world where the transience of ownership becomes more relevant, so I see my BTC HODL as an asset like property would have been 40 years ago. When the ecosystem evolves, I will borrow against it to fund an actual property, but I will not have to sell the asset. It's the protection on a Fiat loan. From a personal perspective, this is very enticing. From a corporate perspective, this funds rapid expansion and borrowing when needed, in an unpredictable world. Sorry to be so highfalutin! :)

If i recall correctly, Facebook's Libra was basically seen as being anti-crypto due to security concerns, even through an association of payment corporates such as MC, Paypal etc (most of which subsequently pulled out). The most interesting thing about BTC is how it is swatting aside potential new entrants. Crypto hornets are doing what they said they would do and basically swarming on new competition, however much fiat they throw at it.
If you invest in BTC (pure or by-compliment), you are throwing more hornets in the way of those that wish to disrupt. It's becoming very difficult and even the might of the FANGS are not as powerful as they think they are. Plenty dollars of which are tucked away in the Asian territories.

Neither a ramp or deramp btw. I've got 20K tickets here and in this for 5 years min.

I can see what he's saying, but that's getting on for Dutch Tulip bubble territory.
The thing here is that BTC and Fiat are going to become codependent, but that's going to take time. This is a growth phase with potentially exponential gains, however there is that codependency that is going to move things in an upward direction. At the moment, only the first saplings of that ecosystem have emerged.

I've been looking in every so often to the board and price action. I would say that it's nice to see a bit of volume in the trades today. Somebody seems to reckon this is now very cheap anyway.
6 (and a bit) more weeks until end of Q1 so Anne and Co. better be busy getting something worth hanging around for. Frustration on the board seems to be at an all time high and i can quite understand why. All the best.

Agreed. Most of it was word-for-word what is printed in the website. An introduction to Anna - that is all it is.
I said before the turn of the year that they have Q1 to turn things around and if they are only going to offer a route to do that in Q1, I guess I will just need to make my mind up based on what they say in those comms. Expecting very little now to emerge this quarter other than that. Disappointed (again).

64324 shares via HL - voted against all 4 resolutions

True...it was only a joke really.
Moving on - any thoughts on whether the selling has now started to dry up? Looking back over recent days, it seems like the 18th Jan might have been a turning point. No heavy shelling since then....however could do with some buying coming through.

Morning all. I was gandering at the Investor section of the website to see if anything has changed. Is this pasted section below new? If it is, seems like a veiled swipe at us on here! :)

Relations with shareholders
The Company values the views of its shareholders and recognises their interest in the Group’s strategy and performance. The Annual General Meeting will be used to communicate with investors and they are encouraged to participate. The Directors will be available to answer questions. Separate resolutions will be proposed on each issue so that they can be given proper consideration and there will be a resolution to approve the annual report and accounts.

Sage advice... :)

Saw it happen on L2. What happened there? Very odd

Nowt on Ebers either. That appears to be the dog that will never bark.

Again, re. Innovate UK. A vague assumption on what they are applying for (and timeline for process) can be found here: https://apply-for-innovation-funding.service.gov.uk/competition/762/overview#dates
