Typo posted:so guys If your BTC is on an exchange already, transaction times for the blockchain don't matter. You're trading the exchange's internal database, not the wider blockchain. Helpfully that also means the exchange doesn't have to actually posses the bitcoin they're selling you.

temple posted:How did you guys get so smart at money trading stuff? I know bitcoin is a scam because its nerd fun money. Unless you're an engineer or a doctor (they immediately know everything about everything they touch, just ask them) the same as everyone else. By reading, studying, or experience. But as I prove almost every single month, having knowledge just makes your stupid decisions funnier. Solice Kirsk fucked around with this message at 22:55 on Dec 11, 2017 |

Uranium 235 posted:how do you define "major price movement"? we literally had that discussion in this thread, so see previous answer the hypothesis that the Satoshi stash would trash the price presumes whoever has it wants to trash the price. if you're assuming that as well, say so. but the fact of a Satoshi coin moving doesn't mean that whoever has it wants to trash the price.

divabot posted:we literally had that discussion in this thread, so see previous answer it takes more than "tens of bitcoins" to move the price in any major way. on gdax, right now, you'd need more than 200 to move the price by 1%, and that's just a single market buy that would move the price for a split second. in reality, traders will add orders to the book as you try to move the price, so it takes more than that bitcoin did have a major change in price in the last 24 hours, but it also has 41,000 volume on gdax. not tens as for the satoshi stash, i'm 100% sure that the price would drop significantly if those bitcoins move. not necessarily forever, because you're right that if the mover doesn't actually sell them then the long-term effect would be negligible, but it would be noticed and i think the exchanges would react in the short-term this same thing happened with ethereum at the peak of ICO mania--everyone was aware that ICOs were getting tens of thousands of ethereum and that if they wanted to use those to fund their development, they'd have to sell them on the market. ethereum prices dropped and stayed depressed for months Uranium 235 fucked around with this message at 01:04 on Dec 12, 2017 |
