It cant be dead till people will hope in some worth of bitcoins. It is same like with "real" money now, you must hope that you can buy sometihng for them. So till there will be people with BTC shops, bitcoin will run probably. And these people you can see more day by day.

Yes if the adoption level goes high then there are chances that it will survive for a longer period of time but the basic thing is people should show their interest and willingness to accept the bitcoin as a mode of payment and the merchants should also start accepting bitcoin as a mode of payment.

The problem is where are you going to find a huge surge of adoption, it needs to come from a existing source.

This is just my view, but like amazon or someone telling them about bitcoin doesnt help. Unless they say save 30-40% on your purchase with bitcoin etc driving people to go buy bitcoin.

And all the website should also display on their payment section that we accept bitcoins as a mode of payment. That will have a great impact on the customers who are not aware about the bitcoins once they see this information on their website it will make them more curious to know what is bitcoin and how it works
And if they know how much the exchange of bitcoin to their currency, i am sure they will shock because bitcoin is the greatest value of all money or currency.

bitcoin is the new gold... the soon people get in the faster can collect the results... im pretty sure we will raise to 300 dollars till end year that is near already
Or it can replace the bitcoin as a gold because of its value, but gold are more important to bitcoin because theres so many things that you can do with gold than bitcoin.

bitcoin is digital gold, unfortunately people are still tied to the fact that the   tangible things has value, while something like the mathematical coins are not a real value.
Try to explain to my grandfather that the numbers inside a PC have a value, he can't understand......

Too bad, people wont even go deeper for it because basically what attracts them are a thing that could help them to earn some quick bucks and thats all which makes the "value" became a measurement if BTC is dead or not. As a proof, you could check the entire forum on the question "how to sign a message from your address" , a simple yet outstanding feature that most people dont know

that is true..don't you think that media has played an very important role in killing bitcoin? Media now and then keeps on talking negative about the bitcoin which forced people to think that it is dying as people have faith in media more rather on themselves and people should use their own minds then following the media.

Most people thought that way but it is definitely unclear if Media plays a part in killing BTC because not all country bann BTC. Most country are lenient towards it and the reason that we found alot of media to put in negative news for BTC are not because that they are trying to kill BTC with it but unfortunately it is the sole fault from BTC user that use BTC for negative activity i.e silkroad

lol im pretty sure all countries governments made some mistake and the people pays always for them

That is why media play a part in putting negative news for them as well. Most democracy countries allow their media to mock their government though

No doubt that is true that media has played an important role in it but they were forced by the government to do so and that is the reason banking systems are also against the bitcoin as the banking systems are regulated by the government and that is the reason bitcoin has lost its shine.

Don't blame the media coz they're only doing there job, blame it on the serial scammers and ponzi operators they have tarnished the name of bitcoin because of their doings and until now these scammers are on the loose to make more scam attempts in the future..
He not blamed the media he only explained to you the wrong things that they do so that they can have a news even if its only a imagination and not really true. And they not even know what is bitcoin are.

Yes they are doing their job.But are they doing in the right way?? Sometimes yes and Sometimes no. Even if it is a small news they will add fuel to the fire and then telecast it in front of the viewers to increase their so called 'TRP's" they just want to make profit out of it and there are many mistakes made by media itself while telecasting the news on TV.

For a newcomer price doesn't matter really

You are definitely wrong on this. The first thing that attract people into wanting to know more about BTC is that its value, its significant price, no doubt about it and it has been some sort of measurement to measure if BTC is dead or no by some people indeed.
It is not about its chain technology and/or how secure it is but it is because of its value and to be honest most people will not even consider wanting to know about this thing if the price is only a few cents or lower (well it is not the same case with early adopter of course)

Yeah, as a newb all you care is making some money off BTC, but if you go a bit deeper -snip-

Too bad, people wont even go deeper for it because basically what attracts them are a thing that could help them to earn some quick bucks and thats all which makes the "value" became a measurement if BTC is dead or not. As a proof, you could check the entire forum on the question "how to sign a message from your address" , a simple yet outstanding feature that most people dont know


so one should not really count it as a real ATH, and the crash after it, explained it well, one cannot see a huge raise like that and then a crash that return the price to the original level

Sadly that has been a measurement for most people, whenever the value drop, people are saying it is dead but when the value is going up people are saying that it is bubble because of the "incident" on April 2013

that is true..don't you think that media has played an very important role in killing bitcoin? Media now and then keeps on talking negative about the bitcoin which forced people to think that it is dying as people have faith in media more rather on themselves and people should use their own minds then following the media.

bitcoin is not dead and still alive until now even bitcoin price is pretty low now not but more people interested to use bitcoin everyday
and it is keeping bitcoin still alive maybe in the next 10 years

Its prices are down so everyone has started to believe that bitcoin is dead and the media is playing a major role in making bitcoin dead as they have the pressure from government to do so and people are very much influenced by media they just get carried away with the news without knowing the reality.

People should not think bitcoin is dead because it has a lower price. For a newcomer price doesn't matter really, he can just buy a bigger amount. It's sad if you wanted to resell higher, but made a bad investment decision however..

Yes for the newbie it is the right time to invest as the prices are down he can buy bitcoins in a bulk and hold it for a while and wait for the right time to sell it off. And if he holds for the longer period of time then i don't think that he need to invest anywhere else as bitcoin will make the life more comfortable in the future.

Bitcoin will not crash in long time I thought, too many people use it and too much interest is around it. There often will be huge fluctuations like this one, because it's a cryptocurrency. There's no reason to worry about crash now. Live for today

Agree, The next halving is expected to happen in 2016.And it will makes btc price up again, i hope we will see $500 next year.
