people are searching for "4chan" about three times for every 1 search they do for "bitcoin"
my opinion: this looks really grim and i honestly don't see recovering it - why should it? It didn't recover all year. Maybe will never. Maybe it was really just a fad and people have grown out of it.
After all it doesn't make sense to hold bitcoin with this inflation it has. It's really only loosing you money. People don't know it, don't want it,don't understand it and don't have the time for it. Let alone are interested in holding with all the hassle and risk that comes with it. It just requires too much study for a sane grownup to get invested. It's very hard to handle safely and very hard to access. So why should people invest in it? The fad has faded. Get ready for a plunge. It's pretty much over for now.
Topic: Damn, any day this should pop below $300 - page 3. (Read 4720 times)
I've been watching for the past week as it looks very weak and have been expecting it to break below $300. Damn, any day now it should go. I think the only thing holding it up are highly invested bag holders.
I think a break below $300 will be the start of the capitulation that a lot of bears are waiting for. It should signal just how weak bitcoin is and let people finally know that maybe bitcoin isn't going to just go higher so you can become rich.
I think a new coin will soon come up and replace bitcoin for the #1 spot and this will be a very bad blow to bitcoin. This I think may happen in 2015.
i don't think price up and down will make a big effect as we have seen top and bottom ourselvesI think a break below $300 will be the start of the capitulation that a lot of bears are waiting for.

about new coin replacing bitcoin , i think bitcoin will on top always because it is the root of crypto currency world
go to google trends
people are about as interested in bitcoin as they are in creepypastas (short horrorstories written by amateur teenage writers).
Interest in bitcoin is as big as in one of the smaller non-mainstream niches for entertainment with stories from hobby-writers. Think about that.
You'd probably be more successfull selling people a short story from an unknown teenager first-time-writer as you'd be selling bitcoin to them.
There's about 20 searches for "pokemon" for every 1 search on "bitcoin"
So, yeah. Bitcoin is wildly successfull in changing the world (not)
Seriously, it's not even close to competing with a gameboy-game for 6 to 14 year olds

Bitcoin is doin just fine. Actually a stabilized price is the best thing happened to bitcoin.
Price goes down, btc holders cry; price goes up fiat holders cry.
Just stay still and everyone is happy.

You're forgetting that trading bitcoin is just a socially (and thus far in US, legally) acceptable form of gambling.
But what good is a nearly-dead casino where few lose but no one ever wins?

Here is OP posting on the exact day of the 2011 low:
Note that the bottom was *double* what he said it was gonna be... Oh, and the fact that he was making many of the same general arguments about bitcoin's doom and impending price collapse when the price was 100-fold lower than today.
Maybe we should have a rating system where if you're consistently wrong with testable predictions for years, you don't get to start new threads.
I think most people have been holding off selling when the price dropped to around $3.00. But now that it has been dropping slowly from that price point, I think it will be very soon that people will start to dump their coins.
There will be some resistance around $2.00, Even with the manipulator trying to push it higher, he has failed. IT seems that the price will fall to about $1.00. I think that will be the bottom. Expect some bouncing, but each bounce is weaker and weaker.

Actually, Ethereum could possibly do it. That's why I've taken my seat in that train. Ethereum is so deep and so well thought of, it's the 2nd biggest crowdfunding in history, can't wait for the day it launches.
The most deep and well thought of vaporware in the history of crowdfunding. Can't wait till it fails
Not really sure why you lot haven't figured out the lambtroll is SilverSpoon.
Perhap he was banned. Perhaps the fact a simple glance at his >5200 posts since March 2014 bashing bitcoin made him an obvious troll.
Either way be careful trading with him - he had a -ve trust rating with his other account.
Oh and edward50, you belong to a special group on here, XiaoXiao and Nagle included. You had the opportunity to buy bitcoin in 2011, but you argued against it then as now. Perhaps your luck will change?

Just how big is the network, supporting this new coin that is going to replace bitcoin? I think a break below $300 will be the start of the capitulation that a lot of bears are waiting for.

I know. But it probably won't be this week but next week because of the Christmas holiday.
I like the open baazar idea, haven't kept up with the latest information.
However, it still sucks to use bitcoins for it because of the price fluctuations and the fees involved with buying and selling bitcoins.
For most products it will still make sense to use ebay and pay the fees because most people simply won't use open baazar if all they accept is bitcoins. You're going to get a lot more money for your product on ebay even with the fees than on open baazar.
Of course if you can sell illegal items like drugs on openbaazar then that is a different story.,
Using bitcoins only complicates things that USD does so much more easily. In Europe they are also able to transfer cash much easier and cheaper with their bank transfers.

I'll say this, when I actually used bitcoin I was never happy about the slow times to transfer coins. The constant fees being charged to covert to other coins. I won't talk about the money I lost at mt. gox but luckily I made money with NXT coin to make up for that loss.
I felt like I was constantly paying fees to exchange sites.
I didn't like the how bloated bitcoin has become, especially when I had to download the blockchain that was very large and growing rapidly.
I didn't like having any money sitting on the exchanges. I didn't trust the safety of my wallets with all the malware out there today.
None of these fears I have with holding stock and USD cash. Easily exchangeable to any other currency in the world with no fees.
I just don't see bitcoin taking off. It had its popularity with china, which I never expected china to allow it to flourish like it had.
Anyone trying to invest in bitcoin now are really taking a huge risk. If you want to speculate with digital currency then buy into another coin.

So people should take you seriously given you lost money at mtgox? If you couldn't see that scam/blackhole coming not sure you can see much. Bitcoin may go below $300 but there isn't a coin that will replace it any time soon. The network effect is too strong given the first mover advantage.
I think a new coin will soon come up and replace bitcoin for the #1 spot and this will be a very bad blow to bitcoin. This I think may happen in 2015.

When is the launch date likely to be?
In euro's it already popped a long time ago below 300. I honestly think nothing much more will happen just because it drops below 300.
price will go back to 2012

You challenged me, not the other way around.
