as you can see right now,bitcoin is playing with us,
the other day it was at 410 but now came back to 370,
maybe some group of people is manipulating the price.
might have happened, if you have a lot of money, you can control the market, it is disliked by many people, me too

because mike Hearn gave a statement that bitcoin is dead. and followed by a decrease in the price of bitcoin.
So the conclusion bitcoin price's falldown is because mike hearn right? I ain't being offensive but you should go to google and googling why bitcoin price going down,bitcoin classic i'd sag
I would say the dump came from primarily both Hearn's statements and the Crypsty collapse occurring at roughly the same time.

I read somewhere that a lot of the selling was because people wouldn't want to be caught in a currency that is politically unstable, and thus they could have been backing out and waiting to see what happens to Bitcoin in the interim.

That might be true, also they can be that friendly to make the price low so that we can buy bitcoins.
When it is high it will be just expensive to buy it.
Still this is just nothing I think we will see a good amount of money after the halving.

Every time, for as long as I remember, that I go on bitcointalk, everyone keeps posting "BTC IS DEAD" "SELL" etc... And then a few Sr/Hero members come and explain how thats wrong.

I just don't get it.

Aren't we used to the price fluctuating by now? Whats with all the crying/moaning about price bubbles, crashing, inflations, Russia, China blablablablablablaaaaa!

Jeez... Do some research before posting, I saw one post which got LOADS of attention, yet the first post was done by paint, with an unlabelled graph which showed wrong data!

This is getting to the point where we are affecting newer members or gullible people into selling/dumping all their coins instead of keeping them. I mean when I come on the forum, I see that its crashing, why would I buy in?

I think we need to stop giving the panicking people attention and focus more on positive sides.

I like the fact that this was posted almost 2 years ago. And here we are 2 years later. Bitcoin is not only not dead but is rising. Yes, it was around $600 (remember the bulb) in February 2014 and now it's only around $400 but give it several months and the price will be around $600 again only this time without any chance to go down in the future.

Same reason people post BTC will reach 10k by the end of the month.

People just post stupid things for peoples reactions.
it does not matter to me, the problem is that people say, bitcoin will die in the near future. I can not accept that argument
yes I also do not, they think bitcoin will soon end and be in perdulikan, but I think bitcoin will always live as the money we use in our respective countries, does not make sense if they say bitcoin will die

Its not just about they don't know what they are saying, but this is to manipulate people into selling their btc so the price goes downtrend and that they can buy cheaper btc. and for a newbie who fear they could lose thier investment, they sell.
those who posts such thing do have motives in telling sort of things and in short, they're trolls.

The reason for that is more about that people compare it with gold. Gold is stable unlike bitcoin and something that goes up and down pretty fast ks always considered as bad investment and bad investment means it is a dead call. Bitcoin cant be compared with gold and people need to understand that

It is because of media. And mainly, their interest is to destroy Bitcoin by making it worthless.

Exactly. a lot of people don't want bitcoin to succeed.
So they trash talk, and are letting other bitcoin owners doubt the decisions they made.
usually people who say it is members of bitcoin competitors or the government because they are afraid to be rivaled by bitcoin

Only a few percentage are considering bitcoin is dead. Its just due to the value that is getting up and down within a few days and not getting stable over a particular price for a long time.

Two years ago seems like forever ago around here.  I'm a big nostalgic for 2009.  In any case, people are still saying bitcoin is dead if it doesn't get mentioned in the mainstream media for a few months.  Meanwhile it's still very much alive in the dark markets and the gambling sites and the exchanges.  It's not dead. 

Shit, litecoin's not even dead.

Drama queen scenario.  No one is happy to sit back and let things be the way they are.  Some people always need a crisis or an issue or an impending doom.  They are every where and Bitcoin has its share, just ignore them and do your thing.

Yeah right.

They are afraid of new things coming and either don't have time or energy to learn.

But that's their lose right.

Yes, they are expert thieves and cheaters. They just find it a way to buy the bitcoins at cheap and to collect it more easily just by creating a propaganda against bitcoin. Those people who posted like those, do not have complete knowledge about bitcoin. Only a least amount of people may post like that, because of disappointment due to unawareness.
