Overflow of people wanting to buy bitcoin to use on newegg. Very bullish.
Good point.

Estimated USD transaction volume is recovering slowly and price seems to be about to take off and land @$630 in few hours.
What do you think about it?

Newegg just ran an ad in Diggs daily email - 10% anything (up to $100) on Newegg if you use bitcoin!

Even if I hated bitcoin or didn't know anything about it, 10% off would get me motivated to use it. Anyone selling right now is crazy.

Fantastic. I was waiting for 1000 for a new laptop but they have a discount on the one I want right now and now this. It's like Bitcoin being at 700. May have to bite.
FYI this is $10 discount for $500 - $1k notebook. 10% to max $100. Overal 1-2%.
Nuh-uh, max discount is 100 so 50 off 500. The one I'm actually looking at is around 700 so I should get 70 off.

Therefore, those businesses are likely to increase supply in the market (by moving coins out of hoards to the market), rather than demand. Basically, they induce holders to sell, and make it convenient to do so. Are they also inducing non-bitcoiners to buy bitcoin? It is not obvious: if you had dollars and no bitcoins, why would you choose to pay with bitcoin?
I did not expect the "using bitcoin kills bitcoin" argument from you, I thought you were a little better than that.I will give you an example. Suppose @JorgeStolfi is in the US and decides to buy a fancy 3000$ laptop. He can send 3000$ to the merchant; or he can send 3000$ to Bitstamp to buy 5 BTC, then send the BTC to BitPay and have them send the 3000$ to the merchant. Which one will he choose?
Now suppose it is @Aminorex who decides to buy that laptop. He can send 3000$ to the merchant, or he can get 5 BTC from his holding, that he mined for pennies in 2010, and send them to Bitpay, who would send 3000$ to the merchant. Which one would he choose?
(And Bitpay then would sell @Aminorex's 5 BTC on the market, where they would be bought by @SroomsKit with his 3000$ which cost him many baked potato dinners. So, simplifying the equations, @ShroomsKit would pay for @Aminorex's laptop; but maybe one day he will get his money back, and more, from some other optimistic investor...)

There is a unintentional irony to this statement, lol.Use Bitcoin to buy but immediately replace? Make sure the bad many (fiat) flows away while the good money grows or stays constant. It might be a paradox but it's definitely not irony

10% discount should be standard. Retailers must save at least that much on swipe fees and chargebacks. (Rents and seignorage.)

well if nothing else gets Amazon and/or Ebay to pay attention Rakuten might.

again nothing immediate but the wind is blowing.

Nice, they are one of my go-to sites. Not so much recently but always worth a check. (This is buy.com in case anyone didn't make the connection)
(Note, for those who tend to wait to long for things like this, offer ends 22nd July)

The July 24th date is 234 days after the previous bubble, which was 234 days after the previous bubble, etc. There is a guy on Reddit who spent months telling everyone we were going to the moon on exactly that date, not one day earlier, not one day later.
When he started getting laughed at, he made his own subreddit, and moved there. The last that I read, he turned from superbull to superbear because his prediction was wrong which he thinks proves that the bitcoin bubble trend is dead.
I am expecting the price to jump a few percent on the 23rd or early 24th because he publicized it so much, for so long.

If he said July 24th, how come the prediction was wrong?
