After the downturn in price all last year plus all the behind the scenes activities that were occurring in the startup realm, it's not hard to think that some big shit should be coming out this year to help fuel the rocket to the moon. Grin

The closest to a free (meaning free) market is the forex market; trading currency pairs. BTC automatically becomes a candidate (and a much better candidate than other fiat pairs) for a free market trading instrument.

And in a free market, it is the market that decides which way the instrument will move; and when. The rest is expectations. Manifesting as fear, greed or detachment. I suggest we let the market decide; just like it beautifully has in the past.

Why bitcoin is poised for big momentum in 2015

Sure, the annual return wasn’t great. But there are many signs that the digital currency is just getting started.

It was not an auspicious start to the new year for bitcoin investors.

Over the first weekend of 2015 the second-largest bitcoin exchange, Slovenia-based Bitstamp, was victim of a hack to the tune of some $5 million U.S. dollars’ worth of the digital currency. As the tech press were quick to point out, it was a worrisome start to the year for a digital currency that Quartz had already declared “the worst investment of 2014.” And if you look at its performance between Jan 1, 2014 and Jan. 1, 2015, that’s not wrong: bitcoin ended the year at 39% of the value it started with.
