On a seven day average bitcoin is nearly reaching its highest ever market capitalisation - http://blockchain.info/charts/market-cap?timespan=all&showDataPoints=false&daysAverageString=7&show_header=true&scale=0&address=

ya so everyone clam down and wait for dumps!  ;)

Currently now it is holding at the longest amount of time that the BTC market capitalisation has been above $125,000,000.

I don't know about that. I still think there is upwards pressure due to the halving. That pressure will likely persist as a strong factor until we reach 15$/BTC or more.

Plus Bitcoin is looking more and more mature by the day. I myself am working on a bitcoin card that will let anyone pay to any Android phone user in the world in a secure and fast manor. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=7539.140)

Wordpress accepts Bitcoin along with thousands other online shops now. The list goes on. Even skeptics I am talking to are starting to take it a little more serious when you throw around the big numbers Bitcoin has already and they are impressed when largely any country they can name shows up on LocalBitcoins.

The USA alone has 100 billion $ in fraud costs per year due to VISA/MasterCards; sooner or later people will start using Bitcoin for everything at all times.

i agree, by the way thebitcoinreview.com will be going BetaGold sometime in 2013... Alpha 1.2 worked out pretty good but i need a good few months worth of weekends to get it up where i want it.  :)

*Watching*

damn that market cap has been really climbing this year. I feel like we should celebrate once we hit the 150 million mark. Its pretty significant milestone imo.

hell yeah. whip out the Alize

I can't wait till it hit hits the Billion dollar cap. At that point I would recommend a bottle of Cristal and a seat belt.

once ASIC's hit...

>clam down

I think once Bitcoin has unique applications and network stability, we will see a new class of investor enter the market that won't be so reactive to the pump-n-dump speculators. They are called savers. You might think they are extinct, but this evolutionary trait may once again find a niche in the deflationary-based economic climate created by Bitcoin.

Bitcoin; you're so deflationary

And it did now, hurray!

I think reaching a new all time high market capitalization is more important that straight bitcoin price high

hence; I made a video on this:

Huh? No it didnt , are you looking at 1-year chart?

I think this spike is a good sign... it suggests Bitcoin may be beginning to reach "critical mass"... but I'm not buying on the way up. I sell your greed and buy your fear. Next week when you're all ready to dump your coins because it falls back towards $12 just let me know and I will step in! heheh 8)

Yes it did! Quoted Chart doesn't update, though.

No, that is indeed a 1-year chart.

Damn it. Note to myself. Only Post after my first coffee.

In that case:

Nothing to see here , false alarm. Move on.

Short term the capitalisation record would be broken at about 18 US$/BTC.

Watching out for this figure.

if it happened right now?

wait till asic's hit and we get weeks of fast blocks mined

But I thought we were capped at 21 million bitcoins?

Yes but the rate of generation will be increased temporarily because the difficulty is not adjusted in real time

I was being a bit facetious in suggesting that we'll have all the bitcoins mined by the time the ASICs get here :D

http://blockchain.info/charts/market-cap?timespan=all&showDataPoints=false&daysAverageString=13&show_header=true&scale=0&address=

We have reached an all-time-high market cap at 13-day average

well bucko we're waiting for this one:

http://blockchain.info/charts/market-cap?timespan=all&showDataPoints=false&daysAverageString=1&show_header=true&scale=0&address=

ASICs notwithstanding, if my calculations are correct, when Bitcoin passes $18/coin...

so if ASIC delay another 2 weeks we'll see $18?

We'll see $18 regardless of ASIC  :D

well I meant in that 2 week timespan

if ASIC come I think $18 is a month or two or 3 away

Why would they sell before this rally is over?

Being there, done that.

I see $18.30.  :P

Also, we're getting close:
http://blockchain.info/charts/market-cap?timespan=all&showDataPoints=false&daysAverageString=7&show_header=true&scale=0&address=

here we go boys. $200 Million
http://blockchain.info/charts/market-cap?timespan=all&showDataPoints=false&daysAverageString=1&show_header=true&scale=0&address=

and trading $1 Million a day

This market capitalization looks quite a bit healthier than the last!! This gives me a good feeling.

market cap is bigger than when price was 33

oh noes...charts back down

Bitcoin could become the defacto currency of online poker. I wonder what the market cap is for gambling?

We broke highest ever market cap  :o

233,342,816 USD :o

[Edit]

June 8th 2011, peek market capitalization of about $206,000,000.
 

$500 Million peoplez
