Maxi_Scalibusa has 50% into this predictionBitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that allows people to send and receive payments without the need for intermediaries such as banks or governments. Created in 2009 by an anonymous person using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin operates on a blockchain, a public ledger that records all transactions in the network.
Unlike traditional currencies, Bitcoin is finite, with a limited supply of 21 million bitcoins. It can be sent and received globally in minutes, and the transaction fees are lower than traditional payment methods.
One of the main applications of Bitcoin is as a store of value, similar to gold or other precious metals. Bitcoin's limited supply and high demand have led to its increasing value over time, making it an appealing investment for many people.
Bitcoin is also used for transactions, particularly in countries where traditional financial institutions are scarce or unreliable. It allows people to send payments directly to each other without the need for a middleman, and it is often faster and cheaper than traditional payment methods.
Another application of Bitcoin is as a means of payment for goods and services. Many businesses, both online and offline, accept Bitcoin as a form of payment, allowing customers to purchase products and services using their bitcoin holdings.
Overall, Bitcoin's main applications include as a store of value, a means of transaction, and a method of payment for goods and services. Its decentralized nature, limited supply, and global accessibility have made it increasingly popular among investors, consumers, and businesses alike.

Trendwende
Heute ist ein Rücklauf des Bitcoin unter die Marke von 16.000 USD erfolgt. An dieser Stelle wurde hohes Volumen gehandelt. Damit wurde das für mich relevante Hoch vom 08.12.2017 bei ca. 16.187 USD unterboten. Aus technischer Sicht war also der Überlauf über dieses Hoch höchstwahrscheinlich doch eine Bullenfalle. Das hohe Volumen an der Bruchstelle lässt mich darauf schließen das diese Marke mehrere Teilnehmer auf dem Schirm hatten. Insofern gehe ich (Stand heute) davon aus, das wir im Bitcoin eine Art SKS Chartmuster sehen. Dies könnte möglicherweise wie folgt aussehen. Aktuell Rücklauf auf ca. 13.797 USD, dann kurzfristiger Pullback auf ca. 16.187 USD. Dann nochmals zurück zu ca. 13.797 USD. Ab da wird es spannend. Nach dem Bruch von 13.797 USD freier Fall, weil bestätigtes Trendwendeumkehrmuster aktiv. Keine Gewähr. Nur meine Sicht der Dinge. Rein technisch analysiert. Aloha.
