FURring bitcoin up since 1762
It really feels more and more like 2013 again!!! I also believe that the traffic of SatoshiDice-like sites went down, in favor of sites were you first deposit some BTC in order to bet. That way the amount of transactions will most likely have gone down!

Its all margin trading bots anyways. Transaction volume doesnt reflect the demand. Its all bot.

Yes, this is true, sadly.

USD value of transactions is pretty steady.

Compare  volume in US dollars, which is flat.

There are more transactions, but the transaction size is dropping. This suggests 'bots busily making little trades.

This is great news. We see everything going smooth this year, except for the price.  Undecided

Price is good also. What would happen inf Bitcoins would be $10k? Everyoen woudl thought now will soon go to $1k and noone would ant to adopt them in their business, since today they will sell something for 1 BTC that will be half of worth next day.

Is it? I think price is still a little bit unstable right now.

They are also selling it for fiat too much that's why the price is going down.

this is far more important than the price.

any rich guy with 10 million USD could use them right now to send the price back to around 1000.

the only way the amount of transactions per day can rise is if people actually use bitcoin, that is much harder to achieve and its happening.
we are living in some very interesting times indeed.

Cant agree more.

Price does not reflect true health of Bitcoin, but number of transactions do.

Merchant adoption does, transaction numbers are easily inflated past averages. But total number of active and larger merchants accepting bitcoin as payment and reserve is an even better thing to look out for!
I would argue that it is actually consumer adoption that drives the health of the bitcoin economy. If every merchant accepts bitcoin, but no one uses it then the bitcoin economy will not be good.

I would agree that merchant adoption will generally drive consumer adoption and will have a positive coloration

"Common rogue from Russia with a bare ass."
you will see that the vast majority of the Top 100 addresses are gambling sites. If that ratio continued down for say, the TOP 1,000 or 10,000, it could bring you thinking that maybe there's a vast amount of low value gambling and a small number of very large whale/mining transactions, with a few pizzas and Overstock sheets in between.

That's irrelevant.
The point is that Bitcoin could technically perform the job of the UK CHAPS system, with 100% accuracy, reliability, timeliness and security. This is very significant, even if current transactions are not anywhere near the same economic value as CHAPS ones.

Hey, I was neither defending the CHAPS system which, like most fiat banking 'services' is expensive, unreliable and monopolistic nor was I doubting the integrity of the blockchain system, ignoring scalability issues.

Price does not reflect true health of Bitcoin, but number of transactions do.

The "true health" of Bitcoin is continually increasing adoption and use outside of Bitcoin itself, which you can't assume from a gross transactions chart.
