Hi ALL



I have been conducting analysis on Bitcoin markets publicly since early 2014 on this thread http://www.wazua.co.ke/f...spx?g=posts&t=29849

I am starting a new thread for all of us to discuss bitcoin markets.

Over time, you will see my style.

Bitcoin is perhaps the greatest Investment opportunity of our Age! (Information Age).


Please keep the thread clean.

INFORMED Opinions are welcome.

So far, here is where we are


LONG TERM TREND

Bitcoin - Why It Now Belongs in Every Porfolio
by Tuur Demeester
October 26th, 2015

https://ybitcoin.com/art...tcoin-as-an-investment/


The value of bitcoins in circulation has been rising steadily. This can be explained mostly by the fact that it is a scarce commodity (maximum supply is 21 million) with rapidly growing utility. Here are a few possible scenarios for the future value of one bitcoin:



The scenarios projected above are, of course, not cast in stone. Bitcoin faces several risks going forward.

This year has been about trying to break from the bear trend. See how market breaks each periodic EMA, heads back down and resurfaces with more force breaking higher.
This recent attempt could go higher, but we watch and see.

Failure to break above 200 AND hold, will send us to further lows.







I am watching to see if this pattern is a correction (A,B,C) similar to May/June 2014.

Where, the market is attempting to break away from downtrend.



Now waiting to see if this develops into a correction, before another leg up. OR if it will fail and head back to retest lows.



My current bias, its a correction, and there is more room to go higher.

I expect this thread to gain fans gradually, but as the banking tension in KE starts gaining momentum more fans will show up. Mpesa has already set up the stage for easy adoption of bitcoin when the boom time comes. If KES is devalued due to the expected banking fallout, this will force mwananchi to start seeking alternatives.

Globally junk bond market crash will severely test the fragile confidence of the fiat monetary system. This is when bitcoin will start moving higher at a faster pace. The negative interest rate environment in europe has already set up the stage for that bond event, which will force capital flight into private hands away from public debt.

You may find it wise to exoplain the Bitcoin in a @Wanjiko understandable language.

Chinese Exchanges Agree Bitcoin Price Has Nothing to Do With Capital Controls

Quote:
“Finance industry is developing rapidly in China during recent years, however, there still exists a distance in terms of trading mechanisms compared to the developed countries, which hindered the small and medium-sized investors from enjoying convenient services and trades,” he said.“Chinese banking industry is still charging high transaction fees despite the fact that we’re living in the Internet Age.”

Nonetheless, bitcoin is rising, and China is leading the pack. Whether this run will last for only a short while or this is the beginning of another bull run, no one is certain. But the energy within the community is certainly more positive, this run-up encouraging more people to talk about bitcoin.

Yes! China has been leading the market. $ 1 billion in 24 hours in volumes. But Chinese exchange charge 0 fees, so lots of bots huko and in and out trades.

Myself, I like

Wise choice.

Bitcoin belongs in every portfolio. Not sure about 2019, external events could change rapidly and change economic outlook.
Like Chief Hisah says, global outlook doesn't look great. i can't believe negative interest rates is a normal thing now.

I myself, am accumulating. building up a long position. I expect at least to retest $ 1200 highs at some point. And, in poor global Macro eg Central bank, Europe, US, China,
$3,000.
