sure but such volatility reduces the adoption potential of bitcoin... most people prefer a stable value (or of course a continuous increase Wink)

The nice thing is volatility has been going down over time. Bitcoin is still a relatively small market, but as we keep adding billions to the market cap the price will become more stable.

That is what bitcoin can do, watching all news claim of bitcoin over riding gold but just not up to a week. The volatility is what we deal with and as well enjoy while trading. The dump is not for long but why compare with gold, looking at its stable price over the years. Gold is gold and bitcoin is bitcoin

This was a very impressive feet achieved by Bitcoin and we are all proud if being part of this community. We hope our investments in Bitcoin will keep yielding productive results for all of us.

It would be better if Bitcoin would have stayed above gold value.  But it was short lived because at this moment Bitcoin is under gold value due to the dump yesterday and I think it was still happening at this moment since it had recovered and then  go down to sub $1200 again.

Seems this news had been delayed.  Bitcoin value had top golds but not anymore.  There is a minor dump yesterday that brings Bitcoin value to 1050 in coinbase, recovered and now it is araound $1160+.  Let us see if the decision of ETF will push Bitcoin pass gold value once more and stay with it.

Already the price has dropped below the price of gold. Gold price top have decreased a little. This looks like the decrease phase has started.

Old news, and the price has dropped.

It's just a psychological price/unit comparison. There is tons of gold nethermind ounces. Market cap would be a better comparison.

Typically BBC, can't mention bitcoin without mentioning silk road.
