Topic: [The Economist] The Bitcoin Bubble - page 2. (Read 3775 times)
If anything, the panic will make a lot of people whom have the balls to stay in a lot of money. I'm waiting for the next big price drop to buy some more coins. You should't invest in bitcoins with money you have a problem losing obviously though.
Hehehe. It's true, $1000 is a lot of money for most of us. But most of the Bitcoin holders saw what the price did earlier, and expect even more. Humans are greedy, and is going to cause a lot of trouble when the bubble pops and people loose much money.
The only thing they could think about then is 'Why was I so dumb not to sell it at $1000'.. I'm a bit in between with my view, sell some (part of) Bitcoins and do something fun with that, but keep a larger part for the future.

Does this mean that we should start panicking now?
It's very interesting, that's for sure. As a trader, I'm looking for the price to weaken, for people who bought in high to get crueled and dump the unit as that's how it seems to go in most bubble-type situations. I'm trying to figure out where the main support might be if we see a sharp sell-off.
Curious how The Economist article seemed quite pessimistic on price through most of the article then softened their stance at the end saying, "it might be time to sell." Maybe they didn't want to appear too one-sided in their views and were holding back on screaming from the rooftops, "Sell! Sell!! SELL!!!"

Or maybe they are just covering their bases and will say later: "oh we said it might be time to sell" even though most of the article seems like it is telling people to sell their btc.

Of course this is a bubble, but what part of the bubble are we in? The top? Where bitcoin will never be worth more then $1000? Does that really sound so reasonable considering the developments happening in Bitcoin? Or are we at the bottom of a much bigger bubble?
You can get out whenever you want- I would rather ride the pop at $10,000 then $1,000.

Well, I think it's because it's a hype now. And the Bitcoin itself is too expensive to start in for most of the people, that's why they try altcoins.
And I don't blame them; there's also a golden future for most of them!

Oh, yes; I also see some future in altcoins, just certainly not the same as Bitcoin's, necessarily. You bring up one of the hardest conceptions to disspell: For pretty obvious reasons, people just getting in seem convinced Bitcoins are indivisible, and I'm regularly told that it's "too high" and they "can't put in that much".

Because the price of the Bitcoin is so high at this moment, people who want to be part of this tend to buy cheaper Altcoins in stead I think.
I think that caused the huge rise of the LTC, but I think it's stabelizing a bit now.

I'm convinced most of the rise of altcoins is coming from the somehow more accessible dopamine high.

as more people get into crypto currency the market cap will rise and so will price, same thing will happen to litecoin if bitcoin does fall off but I don't see that happening. I see that all alt coins will go up and value and I see them coming and going floating in orbit around bitcoin.
