Title: Why Bitcoin price will go up
Post by: btcash on August 18, 2012, 09:08:38 PM
Of course the Bitcoin price will drop xx% on monday but I am pretty sure that it will go up longterm.
The reason is the collapse of Liberty Reserve. Liberty Reserve was the most used payment processor in the shady/grey/dark areas of the internet. Last week they started locking accounts without any reason.
So thousands of dealers/merchants/hyip admins/fraudster/exchangers need a new ecurrency to continue their business. Which ecurrency is better suitable than Bitcoin?

I don't think this will be good for the future of bitcoin but the price will go up and that is for sure.

Information about the current situation of Liberty Reserve:
