Hrmmm.....
Wasn't too sure about that 786 resistance earlier, but it might have been a bit precient after all :/

Any particular reason why the bitcoin price would surge due to merchant adoption? Let's all be honest with each other, bitcoin is still hard as fuck to use for the average person when buying something. Couple that with the volatility and there's just no incentive for anyone to use bitcoin over dollars.
All it would achieve is bring in more speculators who want in on the craze because they think they might make some profit. Yes that might surge the price temporarily, but it would drop just as fast as soon as everyone realizes everyone else is just here to make profits.

Think of it another way, Bitcoin is the backend infrastructure that will allow entrepreneurs to build front end systems that take advantage of it's low transaction cost and security. It just happens to be a speculative vehicle as well, but in some ways if you think about it, it was fiendishly genus to make it deflationary driving huge demand from speculators guaranteeing it's adoption and growth as time goes on. We will eventually hit the top of the S-curve or it will all go to shit, but in any case.....enjoy the ride.
I totally agree that bitcoin is some sort of template for things to come. But thinking merchant adoption is important at this point is just wrong. There's a buttload of other stuff that needs to be solved first.
naa its a fully working beta. for money of the future
better get use to it now then later.

Are you frozenlock or why you have his image?

It's frozenlock, he thinks we're dummies.

He is definitely not Frozenlock. I have no idea why he stole his image, or why we have not heard from Frozen for quite a while. I would speculate Frozen never bought back in after the April correction, since he said he was not holding through the fall again, and was expecting prices to fall much further than they did. This guy who stole his avatar said in a post he only got into BTC this year.

If one Subway is accepting Bitcoin and Subways official twitter just posted a story about "hundreds" of people driving hours to support them for accepting Bitcoin how long do you think it will take before they all follow suit?
Yes, they will all buy a fluctuating volatile difficult to learn currency just to buy a sandwich. In the process they are prone to losing money while doing all this.
Come on people, get real. It's hilarious how everyone thinks merchant adoption is important at this point. I'd say clearing up the regulatory status, creating better (and more liquid) markets, and making bitcoin more simple for the average person to use is of what is of importance at this very moment. Not to mention the consumer side of things that needs to be worked on. Why the hell would anyone use a currency that has irrevocable transactions and no consumer protection for large transactions? Yes there are pros to using bitcoin to buy stuff, but all the above cancels those pros out.

Wtf is going on here. The chart looks unnatural like nothing ive ever seen even in bitcoin. When do I sell? I sold just 20% of my coins yesterday as a hedge and on bitfinex I can I have a loss of several grand. Its bugging me out.
I thought you the unassailable king of the day traders who never made a loss?
Schadenfreude and tea for breakfast...sorry
Making a profit in FIAT is trivial and obvious when trading an asset that constantly grows as BTC, just look at the all time graph. If you are losing coins then your doing bad - very bad. You'd be better by holding.

Cup and handle again on Bitstamp?
Begins to look a lot like it yes, plus new money coming in. Next 24 hours will be very important i think.So people inside don't let the price fail because they think coins are cheap, and people on the outside want to get in because they think coins are cheap. And it's makes sense because there is no way the Senate hearing is already priced.
Now I am pretty convince that this was only a correction (and that's mean was is coming gonna be epic).
This. As a localbtc trader, I usually get an in-person trade request about once every two days. Since the rally to 900, I've gotten literally DOZENS of requests. 9 times out of 10 when I sell to someone in person, they need help setting up a wallet/ learning a few security/ safety tips. The people requesting lately aren't even there yet. They know they want bitcoin and they have cash for it. I'm turning half the people down if I can't immediately reinvest the cash back into btc (when Coinbase reached their max), and it's just a cycle. The same people still want it so they keep trying.
Be careful with relying on coinbase. They frequently decide not to fulfill an order if the price goes up after you place the order claiming that it is high risk.
It seems to happen whenever I get a really good price with them, I can have 5 or 6 approved on a day, but the one large order at the low of the day gets deemed "high risk". It is increasingly seeming that the risk is of Coinbase not being able to use its customers to take the risk on all their purchases and when the market goes up they keep your coins and send back your dollars. I have NEVER seen it happen on market down days.
So if you rely on coinbase to backfill your coins that you sell on localbitcoin, you may find your coins declining unexpectedly when prices are going up and being stuck with dollars you don't want.
