People giving up hope is a sign of reaching the bottom, slowly but surely. My own indicator is not looking at the forum for weeks. That's still some time away.

Fun indicator - personally I'm checking here once a day maybe three days a week instead of multiple times every day. The last time I was at that point was during the summer of 2013, which was also super boring.

Then we'll know we're at the bottom when bitcointalk only gets 5 posts a day.

I'm intrigued by this predicted desolation. Even down in the doldrums there'll always be new folks arriving and asking questions and you can always depend on trolls to keep the volume up.

I´m feeling with you. I gave up my hope for BTC weeks ago. Undecided

LoL.

I have to wonder what criteria you base your conclusions on...price ?

Price wil not determine Bitcoin's future - it never has. Take a look back at 2011 on Bitcointalk. There were hundreds of messages like these lamenting the "collapse" from $5 to $1 and concluding that bitcoin was dead.

Meanwhile, there's never been so much VC capital gone into this sector in history.

Only invest what you can afford to loose. Then you have no reason to panic or to loose faith etc 'cause it doesn't matter that much.
To me it seems a few people are overinvested.

You guys are pussies. We are still on the lunatic fringe. Give it 2 years like Andreas said. If in 2 years things look the same, then you can start considering jumping off tall buildings.

Imagine a guy holding 100 BTC and seeing the price drop from 600$ to 200$. I won't call them pussies.

Well today I am having doubts.... If Bitcoin were to dwindle and fail, is this what it would look/feel like? Huh

I feel this is train is going nowhere, too many people on board and the track and engine just weren't designed well enough...... we are stuck and devs and miners don't want to improve fast enough.

Not trolling but definitely losing confidence today.....

Why doubts? We're still in the start-up fase.

Airliners + Bitcoin= perfect match Cheesy

What signs are there that the devs can keep Bitcoin current? They can't even agree to increase something as stupid as the block size......

Nope I call him a bad trader. He better sold it @ 600 and bought it tripled back @ 200.

You should always consider and maybe doubt the future, but does that override why you got involved with bitcoin in the first place?
Do you really think that Crypto isn't a part of the future?

But how do you argue the fact, that if I am holding it, I would lose money ?

My first coin, two of them in fact, was bought at ~~$150~~ $135. Then I sold at a higher price just to see if this was a real thing. And then I bought them back again at a loss (used a broker at the time, was really new).

The price is higher than it was, even now. Just depends on the timescale you look at. Stop wasting your time here and go read up on the tech, the economic theory, how it compares to the actual workings of fiat, the infrastructure being built and then add it all up. Make your own, informed, decision.

Waiting for people to come in and say not be in it for the price Tongue

Anyways, if you aren't able to cope with the swings, its always adviced to hold a small amount, for which swings won't make a big difference.

Don't be stupid. People don't fiddle with money systems without trying to make money on it.

Waiting for people to grow some common sense.

People should calm down and relax. Be patient.

Do you guys really expect the Bitcoin price will sky-rocket back to +$300 level??

Come on, a lot has happened in this year already, current price is a fair reflection of what is going on right now.

If you can't handle it, sell your coins, and then you don't have to worry anymore.

Well, I used to develop that kind of feeling after seeing the price crash from 500 to where it is right now. To lift my own confidence I would just tell myself to look forward long term instead of hoping the price would miraculously rise tomorrow. Wait for the halving, that is what I look forward to right now.

I still have confidence in the concept, but the novelty has definitely worn off. The last mile, true integration into the global economy, has certainly been tough.

Honest 80s business!

Phew... this is difficult. I really don't know in which stage of grief I am anymore... Thing is... sometimes you have to stick to your investments and ride them through. Imagine someone in November 2011 selling all their coins at $2.5...
I may be in stage 1, if this goes belly-up. But I actually accepted the fact that this may lead nowhere. I didn't put any borrowed money in BTC, so I'm not in debt. I've got that going for me, which is nice.
