i saw by the end of september we'll see $200. its not far off now.

I say about a $1.60 increase on average per day for the entire month of September would get it there.

A 30,000 Bitcoin purchase on MTGox should get us to $200 in the next few hours.  There is still hope. Wink

Well I only have a few hours here on the west coast of the USA for my $200 prediction by the end of August to come true.  At least we went up a bit though!  $148 is a good jump.  Maybe it will be $200 by the end of September though?

Not 100% sure but Paypal founders has nothing to do with todays eBay Paypal.

I doubt this would be financaly wise for them, they are sucking money out of every catch they can (but not with Bitcoin).

I feel like a founders of a company still have indirect influence over the company they created. This is like saying MSFT doesn't respect what Bill Gates thinks simply because he left the reins to Ballmer. I'm sure the old founders' actions of investing in Bitpay and not Paypal is sure to stir some discussion in the boardrooms

This is totaly different stuff. Like saying Youtube founders have any influence while I believe they are not even around Youtube anymore. When you sell the whole company to a large corporation and when you leave you are out.

not necessarily. My friend's mom sold her veterinary hospital to a corporation and they still keep her around because they need her or could use her. The employees that still work there still look up to her. Even IF Paypal's founders aren't in an official advisory capacity, like I said, they still have some influence. Yeah they can't tell Paypal what to do, but they can still affect them and what their courses of action will be, especially by investing in a competing company. that's all i'm trying to say.

youtube + google =! paypal + ebay

youtube's business model has a pretty simple formula, ads. That's google's game, they have no need for youtube's creator at this point, he might not have much more to offer to Google.
paypal on the other hand, is very complex. Paypal's founders very possibly could have a new innovation on their hands, and Paypal should be very interested in understanding what that is

Whether or not it's a hoax, it would make perfect business sense for paypal to adopt Bitcoin.

With PayPal-Like Ambitions For Bitcoin, BitPay Raises $2M Led By Founders Fund

The Founders Fund has three of Paypal's founders with them.

Paypal would stand to gain max ROI on their investments of being a licensed MSB in most of the world.

And Paypal CEO John Donahoe has been quoted as saying Bitcoin is on PP's radar and they're exploring it. let me find it

So, if I short at bitfinex, can I use the resulting btc to lend out at a profit? Or are you not allowed to lend like that while you're in debt?

In any case the depth there is sucking, but I shouldnt complain, if it had been deeper maybe I wouldnt have got that btc back Wink

If you short, it will result in a USD position that you can not lend out and a BTC debt.  Shorting does not have any "resulting btc".  I recommend you steer clear of bitfinex until you do more research on how margin trading works.

If Paypal adopts Bitcoin the price will rise pretty fast I think.

that could only be a hoax, don't be fooled

Of course its a hoax.

We seem to be having our share of those lately.  Sad  I would like to believe it though.  Although I am not a huge fan of Paypal, it would certainly cause a huge increase in price if it was true.

Since the "When will we see $100 again" poll has now been achieved I thought it would be fun to start a new poll.  I predict by the end of next month, August 31st, we will get to $200.  I am admittedly and unashamedly very bullish at all times though.  I do find it fun that some people voted that we would never see $100 again in the last poll and that did not last long. Wink  See you on the other side of $200!!   Grin

I am confident we will see $200 by early 2014, There is no stopping it alot of investors are jumping into digital currency and Bitcoin is the ultimate speculative Digital currency investment vehicle. We will def see it go to $500 sometime next year.

I know there are people calling for a $1 Million per bitcoin but that will only happen if a total collapse of fiat happens, which seems to be an unlikely scenario, given the masses are convinced the Dollar is worth something no matter how devalued it gets.

In 1920 the average German still valued the Reichsmark. Two years later, no more, it was stove fuel.
