Considering the more than 100,000% growth since inception, outsiders have full right to call it a bubble as they said the same thing for the internet. However, when something is in developing phase, focusing on the improvement is better for those who are involved with it rather than wasting time in answering accusations. I have some friends who are accusing Bitcoin that it is a bubble, MLM and what not but I never paid any attention to be honest because I believe that time will answer it.

The Asymmetry Of Bubbles: The Status Quo And Bitcoin
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-11-30/asymmetry-bubbles-status-quo-and-bitcoin

Do the bubbles in bonds, stocks and real estate get the same scrutiny as the bubble in cryptos? Do any of the conventional critics deriding the bubble in bitcoin bother comparing the scale of all these bubbles? So bitcoin is in a bubble at a market cap of $170 billion, but the unprecedented $500 trillion bubble in stocks, bonds, debt instruments and real estate is perfectly fine and no risk at all? (Approximately $300 trillion in global financial assets and $200 trillion in real estate.)

Me thinks that the money from those bubbles will flow into Crypto!






Media is out of reality, they just make themselves look like a fool! Every investment vehicle comes with a risk. BTC is a very good, volatile investment vehicle, and we should focus on how we could make a profit from it, than spend our time reading the assumptions of the so-called market experts. As for me, as long as I am earning from Bitcoin, I'll hold my investment!

Yes, because crypto users more and more, more money will likely come into the world of crypto. And I'm a little surprised to see the total amount of electricity wasted stand-by and similar waste sources over $ 100 billion per year. It's ridiculous.

This is only the beginning of the so called bubble. Bitcoin is going much higher before it crashes, if it ever does! There are already hordes of people waiting to buy on 9k dips, and this was our previous resistance/all time high not even a week ago. The adoption and growth is real, dont stay on the sidelines or you'll miss this huge bull run.

The price of bitcoin has been rising a few days ago, and there is a bubble. Hopefully, the next few days will allow bitcoin to return to normal.

Every system has a flaw. Overcoming and putting faith in it will help the coin in long run. As far as BTC short gainers will not be a problem. Some big fish doing the fluctuation is the problem.

A bubble would pop if it turned out a company liked Tether was creating money backed by nothing to pump up the price of bitcoin and people found out that Tether's were actually worthless.

Bitcoin is legit and real cryptocurrency but because of the bubble makes its price higher.
Bubble is not always bad. Market correction and moves are bubble. So bubble make it very good.

Bitcoin is a bubble though. Some people will begin to see the coin get to a lower level when Bitcoin is finished.

I don't look at Bitcoin as competition to the market. It's another vehicle to try to make money on but it's a completely different beast from earnings reports, P/E and other guidance we use to measure stock. What's wrong with speculating Bitcoin may be a bubble. I think the market is in a bubble and due for a correction. It's been a nine year bull market. Law of averages says it gotta go at sometime. I plan on keeping my stocks, real estate, gold and silver for the foreseeable future. Bitcoin is relatively new to me but it's something I do plan on continuing but for me it's gonna be speculation and a little hold. Perhaps I'll gain more knowledge in how Bitcoin works but for now I'm a bit leery

You hinted on half of the issue with the media, they report what the successful guys of wall street say and of course many of them say bitcoin is a bubble because they're already sitting pretty and bitcoin is a competitor. It's easy for them to take attention away from their own bubbles and divert it towards bitcoin.

Yeah, all this talk of a bubble could be right. A lot of speculation in Bitcoin. A bit of hysteria and critics getting shouted down. I hope it's not a bubble but it's possible, we will certainly find out.

Many financial assets are currently in a bubble. That does not mean that Bitcoin is not in a bubble.

Do you know the real cost of a Bitcoin transaction? Hint: For now, it's almost 95% subsidized by miners because they still manage to make profit. But ... is this sustainable?

Bitcoin is huge, Bitcoin is the biggest innovation of the last two decades. But technically it's still in its infancy. If only every US citizen bought Bitcoin now and stored it in his/her wallet, do you know how long they would have to wait until everyone had his coins confirmed?*

(Because of this fact, I think that a second "Gox" is possible without problems, because 90% of all "investors" have their coins on exchanges, I'm sure.)

*about 1,5 years

You are so right. That is why i think sooner or later bitcoin will be supplanted by something else. Maybe Ethereum, maybe one of these ICO's that got hundreds of millions of dollar to work with.  While they currently have their problems, Tezos is  sitting on $500m in working capital and rising.

People look at the percentage increase, not the absolute market cap of the cryptocurrencies. The quantitative easing carried out by central banks has inflated all asset classes. Bitcoin has attracted an outsize attention. When the crash happens, most asset classes will go down, not just Bitcoin.

The worst bubble of all is fiat currency / the US dollar especially. When that bubble burst, and it will sooner or latter, they will all run to decentralized money.  We are going to become extremely wealthy!

I think all that money goes in the main peoples profit and bitcoin is a very big currency and anyone can invest in it or hold it for large time this gives this individuals a good chance of hiding there money but it all about the high value of bitcoin it is always increasing it can some time decrease but it has a capacity to recover itself very fast.
