I think bitcoin didn't as it was expected to. What do you think about bitcoin in 2016?
why do you think bitcoin has failed? bitcoin is already a success and it will be forever. in 2016 block rewards will halve down to 12.5 ,price will increase?

Price should ideally double if the mining is to remain profitable at the same level as now. But you never know what will acctually happen. Litecon had halving just recently, and its price did not double.

How did it fail?

The price declined happend in 2014. 2015 was a very good year for bitcoin (at least so far)

Not only the price, but also the amount of scams; No Josh Garza's or Chris (LTCgear)

I think I forgot to mention something. Yes, "according to my" expectations.

Plus, I don't think bitcoin is gonna pass $1000 again.

I think the opposite, i think that it will pass $1000 again, if not next year at least after few years. But why did bitcoin fail is because of thieves that used bitcoin maybe.

Do you mean the price? The price has actually been pretty steady throughout 2015.

I think in 2016 we'll see the price reach or pass $1,000.

Bitcoin has been very steady throughout the whole year. It has done what it had to do. I think that the price will definitely breach $1000 in 2016.
I think it's impossible to reach that again.

Yes, it did, at least, Bitcoin is positive comparing the beginning of 2015 and not anymore the one of the worst investments of the year.  Smiley

Why exactly do you think that it failed this year? Did bitcoin not reach your expectations?

To me it did, it's still growing everyday as we speak. I'm pretty satisfied with how far bitcoin has become.

even though btc went from 600 to 250-300 for most the year I dont think it failed because it stayed in the high 200's forever showing that it has a solid bottom at that level. Plus it stayed at that level for many months before starting to break out last month. Proving it can stay at a solid level was really good for btc cause lets face it, the charts can look downright scary for potential investors

Why do you consider bitcoin to have failed? The price is not the only thing, or even the main thing that measures the 'success' of Bitcoin.

but it measure perfectly its feilure, fi the price reach zero you know it was a fail because i doubt many will continue to use it at zero value...

the numbers of users using it is another good indicator

and it's neither i figure but what IS going on is a steady decline in value and users / services.

predictions for BTC have failed 100%

we have a huge problem here.. denial.

anyone left here still says things are fine and there is no problem.
and they are either sincere or being dishonest.
think about it guys.. a lot of people left.. i talked to them face to face about it.
Why ?
You would all never know because you would never ask the question..
because according to everyone here there is no problem.

Predictions = Fail
Bitcoin overall is in a massive long term down trend = REALITY
Bitcoin is FAIL ? = Soon (we're on track for it if things don't change)

The paradox is investors won't admit a problem because it scares them bashing their stocks.
But if they don't admit there is a problem it won't get better.. so they are screwed.
And all you will find here is people who bought expensive coins ready to feed you some BTC hype.
Too many of them have their life savings invested..

Just imagine how people who bought Bitcoins at a grand each feel.
You think they are ready for some positive change ? Or clinging to the delusion that everything is ok ?

You think that cause you own 2 BTC and you expect them to be worth 100k each. That s not what BTC s supposed to do.
I d like to have as less as possible pumps and speculations related to this great currency. What we need is slow but constant growth and the price effect ll come.

Anything but failure... the VC investments are growing... the community is 5 million strong... governments are relaxing their restrictions... and the price is steady.
The trend is positive.

The only thing it has failed at, is that it could not complete a whole year without a small bubble happening. It has actually matured a lot more since it's volatile years. In years

prior to this, everyone was asking for a less volatile currency, and we got just that... Now people see that as a failure..  Huh Huh ...I see that as a success.  Wink As for 2016, I would

predict very strong competition form competing "private" ledgers and a little spike after the Halvening.  Roll Eyes

I don't really understand what you are trying to say. I don't really see how Bitcoin hasn't done what is was expected to do. It is the best cryptocurrency in the world and it has made peoples lives easier so I think it has definitely lived up to its hype.
