Personally I reckon its a no brainer - POWER LEDGER has the potential to bring electricity to hundreds of thousands if not millions of people in places where power is yet to reach - in ways that are clean & cheap - and who knows what genius will be uncovered in those yet to be unlocked repositories of potential human brilliance..
oh & yeah as the 'Airbnb of Electricity' Power giving all the - first world citizens slowly losing their jobs to robots - an extra income stream = will also be good and no doubt extremely popular

Very nice project. Very nice that you listed on bittrex so fast

Well you can't consider the POWR/BTC fluctuations, you have to watch POWR/USD. Here it's also fluctuating if you're watching the all-time-charts, but on a healthy level, not dropping under 0,47$.
Kepp also in mind, that almost all atlcoins are accumulating to the rise of BTC, what's only logical.
So I don't see ANY problem for the HODL-guys. POWR is no token for day traders

BTC will drop. Its guaranteed. Best time to buy is when there is blood in the streets. I always use these opportunities to buy more alts at dirt cheap prices. They almost always recover once BTC settles down.
It will drop yes, but the question is, how high will it rise before it drops? During November 1000s of financial institution across the world have opened up to accept Bitcoin, either as payment or as investment. Bitcoin is now even a topic on hollywood movies and series. More banks are buying bitcoins for their own portfolio, more regular people are now interested in investing into bitcoin than ever before.
With such a crazy high demand, it's likely that bitcoin will go up to $100,000 during 2018.
The silly thing we all did, was to invest into POWR during the boom, and we are now sitting on POWR while Bitcoin is literally changing the world like no other thing in human history has done so far.
It's simple with Bitcoin, for as long as people are crazy about Bitcoin and the media attention is there, it will rise and POWR will fall.
For all of us who invested into POWR at the ~0.00010000 BTC mark, we were unlucky, because even if POWR gets back on it's feet, it won't hit that price any time soon, if ever at all, for as long as BTC is on the rise.
In the last 2 weeks:
BTC: +110%
POWR -80%

What Bitcointalk thread does this hack not shill on?
He is everywhere pitching his shit. EMC2 is a shit pump and dump coin that stole the Einstein brand.
It boasts funding 'scientific research' - who cares. Most science is used to serve the globalists and covered up.

With the increase price of Bitcoin many pairs prices are kept reducing in the market because now all other altcoins are showing now in red flag. Don't worry everything will settle at one point and in the same way power ledger will also recover it's price.
December 07, 2017, 09:11:22 PM
At this stage, it's safe to say, POWR paired with BTC has died and will not recover, ever. Everyone is cashing out now.
By recover I mean, that if you have traded BTC for POWR like almost everyone and invested at around the peak of 8000 - 11,000 satoshi, you will need to consider that as a permanent loss.
The problem is not just the low media attention and interest that POWR gets, but the fact that POWR was mainly traded for BTC rather than USD, and with BTC now being at $18,000 and expected to go as high as $100,000, the value of POWR paired with BTC will decrease even more.
If BTC will hit $40k by the end of the year, POWR will be as low as 500 satoshi.

Don't kid yourself. EMC2 is showing the exact same pattern as POWR. It had 2 big spikes and then crashed. Now EMC2 is down by 50%.
The pump you just mentioned, already crashed down 38% as well.
Oh and we all know why EMC2 is currently spiking, because they are undergoing a hard fork. That's the only reason it has been going up over the past 2 weeks, so don't kid yourself thinking EMC2 is the worlds solution to everything. It's only hyped because of the hard fork, just like POWR was hyped because of the Australian governments investment.

Powr token is already started to recover against Bitcoin even in fiat the decline is not big to be scared. Once everywhere will be green in market working projects in real life will be big gainer and winner. Powerledger team is working on expansion that will back the token always.
Not sure what stats you are reading, but POWR is now officially lower than what it was before they were added to exchange markets like Bittrex, Binance and Cryptopia.
POWR completely crashed. On Bittrex POWR just hit an all time low. Down by almost 80% in just 2 weeks. This is single handedly the worst crash of a serious cryptocurrency in 2017 (serious = currencies with market caps above $100 million).
Even though I was one of the most conservative people here in the forum, predicting it will go lower and lower, I have to admit, going as low as it currently is, I would not have assumed so fast.
Even worse, POWR was traded by most people in exchange for Bitcoin, rather than USD. During 19-23rd November when POWR boomed, Bitoin was at $8000. Now it's at $16,000. It's safe to say, that for as long as Bitcoin is that high, POWR will keep falling. Because of the high Bitcoin, POWR now needs to double it's value of the original all time high, just so we get even again.
I myself invested into POWR as well. I kept trading for 4 days during the boom, made 35% per day until it fell. My last investment was 0.25 BTC into POWR at 0.00010100 BTC per POWR unit. Now it's at at 0.00003100 BTC
Now POWR faces an additional challenge. Before it was just that they needed to create their product, and they needed to gain media attention, but now to recover, BTC has to drop.
We have some rough times ahead of us.

With Btc so strong it is hard to invest in altcoin... it is very risky.
No doubt strong growth of BTC making much hard for altcoins to survive but this team won't disappoint in long term. Even in short time of period this looking risky but buy dip will good decision.

Now it hit an all time post-pump low of 4600 satoshi.
I love how so many people here during the first pump on nov. 20th predicted that by 23rd. nov it will be $10, then they predicted $5 by end of november, then it crashed and when it had a 15% jump one morning everyone went "Now the world is waking up to POWR", and went on to predict $2 by the end of last weekend.
Meanwhile my personal prediction since the first pump was that instead it will keep falling to 5000 satoshis and I was called a troll, a moron and an idiot for saying such "unrealistic" things.
It's simple, POWR has no reference value unless the company Power Ledger will create an actual application, which they are planning to release end of 2018 or early 2019. Until then, the entire value of POWR is simply based on hopes and dreams, just like 99% of all the useless alt coins.
The only way POWR will go up, is if a bigger investor decides to load up, or if Power Ledger makes a news announcement. Until then it will stay around 3000 -7000 satoshi.

I have to disagree about reference value. First of all, the AUS gov kicked in around $3M and then another $5M came from institutional sources like university and then Cisco. Cisco and the AUS gov are attaching investment value to this project. In addition to this, POWR itself raised $34M in their ICO. In contrast to their 1B coin circulation, all this really isn't such a big deal. But, this is just the beginning and to say that a reference value cannot be set is narrow, albeit slightly true in a narrow sense. So that's where we are now, everyone arguing what the price "should" be. For the risk here, I expect this to stay low until various projects prove themselves.
And never forget FOMO. This is potentially another huge opportunity lost by those fretful hands collapsing now while other opportunities awaken. The bitcoin surge is good and bad for all these other upstarts. bad in the near term and good in the long term as bitcoin continues to establish feasibility as a revolutionary finance technology. But more on POWR FOMO...
Let's consider the estimated $450 savings per household this tech could bring. Australia is estimated to have around 32M housefuolds which would equate to over $14B in savings and these numbers would only grow over the coming years. And this is only Australia... POWR could be the go-to source for developing and distributing this resource to other countries. But let's just consider $14B. How much of that should be attributed to POWR's value? What is a fair profit margin? 10%? so that makes a fair price assessment $1.40?
Well, of course that is wishful thinking and HIGHLY presumptuous to think that all households would buy-in to this. Then again, I thought the same thing when my friends said they were waiting to see bitcoin at $10K and then they "might" consider selling some of the thousands they had accumulated. So yeah, sometimes FOMO is also HIGHLY warranted.
Good fundamental analysis, and no doubt POWR is a very promising and unique project that could disrupt the energy industry. However, we have to accept there is a very disturbing trend in social media and here on bitcointalk, that as soon as a coin is pumped 100% or more, shills come out of the woodwork and immediately declare that coin to be the way of the future, moon and stars, etc. All too often it turns out to be a pump and dump scheme, with the promoted coin very soon giving up all its gains sometimes all the way below even ICO levels. I sincerely hope POWR would be the exception here; there are very strict requirements that can make a coin have intrinsic permanent value, which is the topic of another entry...

This powr is manipulated as fuck ... sry 4 that I do a lot of TA/FA charts and since 3 days ago every chart say this token would go up ... but the whales manipulated this ... at the moment this token are good to buy in at 2000 satoshi.

what's with all these noobs with crystal balls to gaze into the future?
Hahahah, good comment, you know the most common emotions, fear and greed, these two emotions are the fabric for other thousands of emotions, and suddenly experts popped out of the nothingness preaching the brilliant future of some x coins, although disregarding them 100% is snobbish too, depending on the intelligence of they're comment, some things might have a grasp of reality, but this didn´t seemed the case.
Anyhow, cryptos don´t care, it happens whatever has to happen, but people should learn to watch the patterns involved with these main emotions...in order to predict a more accurate future
Don't be too hard on the newbie accounts posting here and there. Remember, you were once a newbie account too. Now then, I speak from experience when I tell you I personally know people who are getting involved and making new bitcointalk accounts. They are smart folks too. Just having the "newbie" tag doesn't discount their thoughts and opinions.

there's a metric shit ton of bots introduced here lately, if you haven't noticed - in addition to the sock puppet accounts people with too much time on their hands like to make.
we've been through alot here, and yes - we have been newbie'd time and time again: from floating mobys to razorroad to moneypots to shared cloud mining scams.
