Time to rejoice, the future is bright, Bitcoin core development is moving at a feverish pace.


When XT started dying we doubled our price.

With the classic coup looking dead the way is clear for Bitcoin to hit the moon.




Strap yourself in!!

Really 20-month high? It was around 21-Jun-14 about 20 months ago. The price was $600+.

We did briefly touched $500 in Nov-15. I think it should be 5-6 month high.

I guess 19 month high then, I just estimated from looking at chart. 5-6 months ago that was only very short, few hours or days at most so I dont count that.

I agree... but how can we be sure that the current price is going to stay longer than a few days?

I guess we will have to wait and see, nothing is ever for certain, but seeing that classic is all but dead, there does not seem anything in the way of a rise now which is probably long over-due.

I know where I'm betting my money  ;D

Jeez, I didn't think that it has been 20 months since we hit $448 last. I thought it was over that only 3 or 4 months ago.

Regardless, I'm glad to see it's bouncing back. It looks like we might be getting investors interested again.

20 month high does sound like progress for the bitcoin front. I like this kind of news. It gives us hope that it might break the $600 mark soon like it did way back when. I didn't even remember this price before seeing this thread.
Is there maybe a website that can remind us about these points in bitcoins history when these have happened? I mean a site that is easy to look at instead of confusing graphs. A simple to read timeline if available.

Honestly doesn't feel like 19 months. It feels like just yesterday bitcoin fell from $600..

Screw XT. Core is love, Core is life.

Strap on in, it's happening ;D

It is a nice raise now... but there have been like 2-3 raises to 450+ and then down again. Hope this is really to reach 500, but it is not so clear in my view.

The classic competition is good for the economy of bitcoin. Otherwise, we will not see the block size increase so soon.

Well the value is stabilizing at ~$450 and I don't see any reason for bitcoin to hit $500 anytime soon. Unless some big company adopts bitcoin to its transactions and gives publicity, it might trigger a potential bump.

The bitcoin price just dropped to multi week low, should we say the Core is dying? I think there is nothing to do with the Core or the Classic.

Last time i listen to you, OP >:(

Sorry? The price is higher now then when I made the post.

As classic is dead and bitcoin moving forwards in strides this positive trend will continue.

Today, the bitcoin price reached $478 in Bitstamp, that is also a multi months high. It is a good sign.

Im lucky today that the price reach $478 and your right this is the good sign.. maybe sooner it will jump fast and hit $500 usd..
Just lets hope that the price tommorow reach 500..

in the last 21 months price has been higher than today only for some hours during the november 2015 spike. fantastic.

Fallen to 470.00 exactly on Stamp now, I'm worried we might experience a dump over night, I hope not though.

I read that as strap it on.

wtf brain

No need to be worried. It's normal that we'll face some dumps after the price has gone up this much in a matter of hours. Some traders will grab this opportunity do take profits.

Just look at the volume weighted average and that makes it clear.  Indeed, it's been 20 months (Sept 16, 2014) the last time we were higher.

don´t worry, mate. this time it is different^TM

most times, it's no different. until it is... ;)

I wouldn't correlate this with classic failing. We knew it was going to fail from early on anyway. Parties that have an impact on the price including most miners decided to block classic anyway so I find it unlikely that the recent price rally has anything to do with it.

I think the price has been very low for about 1 year and the infighting and classic/xt thread kept it down.

With that threat seemingly gone the way is open to moon.



I hope you didnt listen to those classic shills? They have history of being wrong about everything! They will cost you your money, bad crowd.

There is big congestion in the bitcoin transaction. I think the block size has to increase to 2MB or higher soon.

If the bitcoin wants to give good user experience, it has to increase the block size and reduce the confirmation time.

Confirmation with 1 to 2 blocks is fine with most people. So the Core should increase the bock size soon.
