Topic: Is Bitcoin a Bubble? - page 17. (Read 3150 times)
this has been discussed all the time and the answer is still no. bitcoin is not a bubble because if it is then it should be dissapear by now and wont exist anymore. however some people have a different understanding about the real meaning of a bubble because they think that a bubble is like a crash or correction. overall bubble or not, id still accept the fact if what will be the future holds in bitcoin. whether it will vanished or continue to grow id still be thankful because i know bitcoin and it gave me an oppurtunity to earn something in a comfort of my home.
I think some groups of people are just creating a scare on bitcoin to create a bad image on bitcoin. Giving people the idea that bitcoin is somewhat going to blow anytime.
Some Banks are saying that bitcoin will drop to 1000 dollars. Do you believe thats possible?
Time will definitely tell if we can ever see that happen. However, this does not sound reasonable and you should stop listening to all the things being said by banks. They see bitcoin as threat and they find it very hard to admit the fact that bitcoin will end up exposing all of their atrocities and the level of slavery they have imposed on us over the years.Bitcoin itself is not a bubble, but the rate at which people are getting greedy is what really makes the current incidence a bubble.
Wall street grows ever more certain Bitcoin is a bubble. I can't even say they're wrong. Flirting with $6000 per coin and low economic utility? For as dumb as Jamie Dimon sounds every time he says anything about Bitcoin, the tulip bubble analogy looks less and less inappropriate all the time.
Blockchain utility doesn't make crypto not a bubble. That'll be important to remember for people buying now expecting to make big gains at this cost basis, and there's real risk there.

In a note to clients published on Thursday, analysts at UBS took a long look at Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, and the blockchain technology that underwrites this whole enterprise.
Looking only at pricing, UBS said that, “a twenty-fold increase in bitcoin prices in just two years, and an absence of any fundamental economic backing, cryptocurrency prices are almost certainly a bubble.”

Now that Bitcoin almost hit $20,000, there is even more reason to think that Bitcoin is a bubble. For me, a bubble is a state where an asset is bought and sold at prices substantially exceeding the price determined by its actual use for the purpose intended. In case of Bitcoin, it should be used as means of payment or Internet money. But today Bitcoin is used exclusively for trading, and its high price is due to speculation for the most part, not real world use such as in commerce.
The way I see it most investors are not rational in the crypto markets. A big portion of the trading is done on hunches alone, and people don't really try to find any underlying value. If the asset you're investing in doesn't have any long term plan for actually being useful, then it certainly won't be worth much in the future. Bitcoin doesn't really offer very much utility right now, with such high transaction costs. Anyone that can transfer money legally will do it in another way. This just leaves people that can't transfer legally, and a black market like that is bound to be hit hard by governments.
Well of course it is a bubble!!!! There is no doubt in that!!! For e.g look at the frenzy, a company changed its name from Long island icetea to Long island blockchain and its share prices skyrocketed in a couple of days!!!
How does a simple name change create any interest in the project or company,it is not because of any speculation with the name,there is something wrong with the investors to invest money into any name similar to bitcoin or block chain 
this is not a bubble caused by bitcoin but it is a problem created by the mentality of the traders. 
Well of course it is a bubble!!!! There is no doubt in that!!! For e.g look at the frenzy, a company changed its name from Long island icetea to Long island blockchain and its share prices skyrocketed in a couple of days!!! The real question is at what point of the bubble are we at??? If the price continues to rise, what is the breaking point?? This is a very tricky question and everyone can just guess but not separate the facts from fiction. Only waiting can tell tus what will ifnally happen in the future. 
Many are saying that indeed bitcoin is just a bubble. Ofcourse those who don't believe in bitcoin will say that. However, whether it's a bubble or not, it is up to the person like you and me if we will believe in it and continuously invest. We all since then that investment requires risk as well. This can be a humor only unless bitcoin will continuously prove itself that it is not.
The reality is important not that people saying non sense towards bitcoins. For many years that bitcoin proves that it is not a bubble, but due to some false accusations and black propaganda towards crypto it may affect the image and price of bitcoin. I know bitcoin have already strong foundation and it can really survive from crisis.The truth is that bitcoin itself have some values and the problem was because most people started seeing it as a get rich quick scheme without even knowing the real value and not holding bitcoin because of the fact that they see it as something that is set to liberate them from the bank problems over the year.
No its not a bubble. Although its a highly volatile market which has technology behind it.
The birth of bitcoin marks the arrival of a novel economic institution—just like the emergence of nation-states, joint stock corporations, private clubs and or stock markets.
So the entire point of bitcoin is to create a form of digital cash for use in the digital world.
Some people predict it as a bubble for all time because of it high rising prices. But its not.........!!

Actually, we are worried about not wanting bitcoin to become a bubble. According to the news I am reading it is also one of the reasons for writing about the government ban that will apply in 2018. If bitcoin is what bubbles will we do when the government began to impose a ban next year.
I don't think bitcoin is a bubble because people have been calling bitcoin a bubble for far too long without a burst. Whether a bubble or not, i see bitcoin as an investment opportunity to invest and make a lot of profit for the long term, because of that i really love investing into bitcoin and few altcoins as well.
It is not a bubble...we are in a speculative stage but it will stabilize. That is where the bubbles becomes the normal way
The price is not a bubble, i can not understand why there is a lot of people trying to say this.. you all know that bitcoin is not a bubble and it will never be, and if it is "a bubble" just like everybody is saying, you should know that at least it wont crash for now

I read a very interesting article on that subject the name was "btc is not a bubble the btc and the needle". And it was magnificent how the author described some things that make us think. Today the world bubble is the governments and banks that at any moment can destroy the world economy in a matter of days, inflate and deflate weekly and cause panic in several areas. The btc today and the needle that will pierce this bubble, will open a new path in the area of values.

It depends on the investors earners and users uses. They tend to sell a large amount of money and consider as a bubble by a sudden change of value. Cant help that if you got to go or commit something nothing is holding you back. Speaking of HODL they have some impact too especially from big time investors. Quote

Many people are believing that bitcoin is just a bubble. We can't deny the fact that bitcoin investment is highly risky. Lots of money is involved that may change at any second. But if we will just be afraid of this bubble we will not get an opportunity to earn big in a small period of time.
Bitcoin not absolutely bubble. if the blokcchein technology is included into economy that it there will be a world currency. meanwhile it is some kind of investment, risky and highly profitable.
It depends on how you look at it. For some, this is a bubble for other investment opportunity. With such large increases can be expected that the price can also quickly fall.
It totally depends. Anything can be a bubble based on the current incident at a particular point in time.So far, bitcoin is not even usable yet as a currency and it was obvious people were getting the wrong idea of bitcoin as a pure speculative asset which totally made all the things that happened to be a bubble which we have seen to have caused the recent downtrend recently.
However, we cannot expect to see stuffs like this, but i am sure over time, bitcoin will be more of a real currency than just a speculative asset.
Nobody can predict when the "bubble" will explode; in the meanwhile, we can trade and make a lot of good gains.
Actually, nothing on this planet is forever... so, profit now, and then...we'll see :-)
