Topic: $440 will be broken faster with PayPal's help (Read 2982 times)

$481 and going up ...

with paypay will first drop and much latter gets stable growth.

Useless post is useless!

Bitcoin is adopted more and more recently. It could be hardly any better, yet you strangely sees all of sudden everyone abandom Bitcoin

Falllling is not a prophet do not listen to his doomsday prophecy. Bitcoin is going nowhere but up!!!

How can you know for sure?? You're just a Newbie.

Yo... it's going up right now. And I am a pessimist. Wait until after it has gone up to at least 600 (probably a 7-handle)... then come back and say it is going down... you might be right at that time. People are too celebratory now to expect much else.

I'm thinking that it might drop to $250

We are almost recovering to the 480's.

No final capitulation, no plunge, nothing.

Bottom is in, higher low once again and $440 intact. I'm buying as much as I can.

Two things:

For fallllling:

Why do you keep conflating those two graphs? Neither of them match up, in terms of the items being measured or the scale of time... you've just got two graphs with a vague spike in the middle. I think you think they match up somehow but you never say why?


For everyone else:

Real talk: I spent the summer working on a data ingestion tool that scraped twitter feeds / bitcointalk.org forums and fed it into kafka/storm/trident for real time sentiment analysis of the bitcoin ecosystem (the idea being, if Google Trends data is a lagging indicator for stock prices, real time twitter/message board activity should be similar without the lagging...).

Theory: Falllling is targeting this sort of analysis - he wants to make sure he owns the "sentiment" of this board at a given time, to the degree that he can. Board posters aren't his target - external observers of the largest bitcoin forum in the world are. And the more readers respond to his trolling, the better off he is - he does a great job of engendering and increasing negative sentiment. It's extremely hard to filter him out - he pops up randomly in plenty of threads, and whenever he does, people get annoyed because he's, well, a troll. (Trolllllling? )

There's a reason he's got so many active posts, and no one has managed to 'report to moderator', even though all of our posts have that button in the lower right....

Smile when you see fallllling's post, but don't reply - he profits from your responses in a very literal way. And as a general rule, if you seem him posting in overdrive, remember that it (most likely) means someone who is running extremely sophisticated data mining and sentiment analysis thinks it's a good idea to make you fear / doubt bitcoins value.

Don't let a sockpuppet psyche you out.

finaal capitumilation, cut goose

soon we will hit the final capitulation, $50 is over-price for bitcoin

ROFL.. why do people keep posting these 2 pics side by side? If it suggests "return to mean" why the fuck is BTC not trading at like .. idk.. $50 or so?

I don't use credit cards except for a few short years in the early 1990s when I got one on the urging of my accountant. What a mistake. I later realized that he was just trying to make his own job easier.

I much prefer cash. It's safer, faster and much more convenient. The only reason I even got a bank account was cashing cheques and a few pre-authorized payments.

It bugs me standing in a checkout line waiting for some morons to punch in numbers and wait for acceptance of their idiot cards.

Bitcoin on the other hand is even faster and less fuss than cash.

I keep a few hundred million satoshis on a mobile device and a few hundred dollars in my wallet for general pocket money.

I never had cash/Bitcoin refused, bounced, put on hold or grabbed by the taxman.

Screw credit cards, cheques and banks in general.

Nah, that really is nonsense! Proclaiming that one of the biggest and most accepted online payment solutions accepting Bitcoin is a bad thing, really doesn't make any sense. There is almost no better way of enabling people to pay with Bitcoin for whatever they like than that!

agreed

I agree $440 might be broken in the near future. The downward pressure is enormous. People want out to buy real stuff, not drugs. Then if this resistance is broken, we are in deep shit. I might sell all of my BC now.

Fact is that braintree is implementing a new, bigger BitPay.

You are missing real benefits of bitcoin over credit cards.

I have VISA but when I travel I always book air tickets, hotels and rent cars with bitcoin because it's faster and fucking bank doesn't bother me with annoying calls asking was it really me who made that "suspicious" overseas transaction.
I also buy domains and web services with BTC because it's fast and easy and no stupid calls from credit card departments.
