Either bitcoin is an Investment commodity (the ultimate one!) that you hold and speculate on
Or internet *stable* cash money that you you keep on spending

But the latter is not synonym with moonlanding.

And thinking you can have both is ATH delusions.

I don't need to have both at the same time. Alternatingly is fine with me.

it depends on internet cash money for how many users(?). if a billion people decide to use it, price has to go to the moon.

if it stays an investment commodity for a few 100k speculators, price may go to the moon.


If a billion people decided to use it for internet cash money we would need MUCH larger blocks.

I found this comment on Reddit to be quite thought provoking regarding block size. It brought a perspective i never though about.

Some nice move is coiling, I guess. It's flat as Bitcoin.

you have to consider the latter is so less probable tho considering bitcoin's past, but rather young (i'll concede this to you) history.. bitcoin price has mainly been driven from investors and speculators until now rather than some mass adoption or retail bs.

the point being there is no incentive to drop the first, giving up decentralization et al. just based on the hope and *ifs/may/blablabluh* to catch the second.. especially considering the high uncertainty regarding the rest of the financial world nowadays.

that's all.

For me, it looks like we are in September of 2011. Roll Eyes

For me we already surpassed December 2011.
It also rhymes with the block reward halving somewhere next year.

Basically I compare 3 day chart 2009-2012 with the weekly chart from 2012-2015.
DMI and RSI also rhymes.

If I'm wrong I'll end up being a bag holder Grin.
But boy, what a ride it was...

This could break up very soon, or not at all. Up to about 245$, correction, up to about 270$ and then the long downhill. At least, that's my most probable scenario...

Truly scenario ... everyone that see charts Reach your conclusion ... all people are reaching this conclusion slowly ............


conclusion of the conclusion being more downhill, people might just wanna skip the pump phase. exhaustion et al. so why not just give up?! cuz my bids are lowww.. ^^

There should be soon a pump or a dump. LTC looks like a bearish pennant (BTC more like a wedge), and BTC may follow.
Regarding the bid sum / ask sum ratio, on Bitfinex, Bitstamp, BTC-E and Coinbase, it has recovered and looks bullish, but on Huobi looks bearish.
Sounds like flat to me

Pool operators are really miners, along with solo miners and p2pool miners. The people who sell their hashing to pool operators are just providing hashing. Correct if you are not running a node and are not receiving coin base rewards, you are just providing hashing.

Hashing is the important bit.

XT nodes falling down. Looks like people started prefer bip 100 blocksize solution.

not the people.. the big miners.

Only miners count in the end. However, it is good to see that number of users running XT nodes is down under 900 and falling, now only 810 on BitNodes. Novelty wearing off perhaps. Do not discount Mike Hearn ambition though probably has a few tricks left to pull. Considering how negatively bitcoin market reacted to Bitcoin XT introduction he should pull it.

Correct me if I'm wrong but only big miners or solo miners get a say in this vote. If you mine in a pool like many people do, you are not running a full node so you don't get a vote.

Small miners can change to a pool they agree with.
