Bitcoin Forum

Speculate.

Discuss?

Hypothesize.

Yes

arriving at 50 has been moved to the next 2-3 weeks

No.

only way to make money of bitcoin is to sell it. I always thought this rally supported by few big players who pushes price up in hopes that rest of market will pick it up. At some point there will be big sell off but nobody knows or can predict when. My guess it might go over 50 but always will come back

Maybe.

No. It will peak at precisely 49.129837 then fall to precisely 6.92746453424567 and remain for exactly 127 hours before falling to 2.4826153538 for 16.986 days. All this can be considered fact, as I have written it on the Internet.

Aww come on take a Wild Guess.

Yes.

influx of new users may stop which will cause slow downwards trend; I guess 50 is still possible but from long term view without new users we are heading down

Sure.

Probably.

But might take a bit of time - how much damage has been done by the blockchain split remains to be seen, but it augers well that this technical problem has, as far as I can tell, caused no more grief than some delay in getting transactions processed. Does anybody have a real example of a double-spend or actual loss of coins?

I too am in the "Damn - wish I had some fiat on an exchange" camp but have recently been simply sitting back and watching with the bulk of my coins in an offline wallet.

It already has on Cavirtex.com! 50 CAD

Ask me again in mid-April  :D

Yes

NZ$64.30 (US$53.37) on bitNZ.  I managed to sell a few at NZ$60 yesterday  :)

We have failed the ATH on massive volume. There has been massive pump on bitcoin and the selloff will take us down.

I am not part of the team, but I appreciate what they are doing. Bitcoin is already immensely valuable and the price needs to be kept in check to prevent disruptions in global economy. I expect $300 by the years end and a subsequent crash to $120. This correction will take us to $30-$35 because there will always be a buyer for every seller.

50$? Ever? Yes.
This month? Probably no.
Next month? Maybe.

We could've totally hit 50 this month if not for the glitch. Now it's a toss-up between March and April. Maybe if the Lannisters use part of their massive wealth to buy some bitcoins in Season 3 it will be just enough help. :P

Would you mind expanding on that at all? I like this theory and feel it is close(ish) to the truth. What makes you mention the record volume failing to hit the ATH? If it was going to happen, it would have happened then?

Please excuse my ignorance.

Already hit $50 today on Bitfloor.

March 17

Well, considering that we are in the "Speculation" subforum, is this not how it's supposed to be?  :D

We were nearing ATH when the blockchain bug was found, and the resulting selloff (technically, in TA) means, that we failed to confirm the recent high. This often gives the market a dampener and makes it unable to overcome the high for an extended period of time.

As for the manipulation of the markets by big players, oh, I have been around in gold, silver, and currencies for too long, in order not to know how the things are managed. And I think it's fine.

Yes. Today it will hit 50.

It will hit $50 before the end of March

 8)

We will crack $50 on 4/20... call it the SR effect.

+1

OK, one more day with weak trading action..

I have a purchasing plan for rather many bitcoins but I will suspend it until we see $3X's. The breaking of $50 is not really in the cards now. Sorry.

Yep. Once we hit $45 the ensuing panic will bring us to the figure you are waiting for.

Good. See you then. $35,000 -> BTC1000 sounds like much better than BTC1000 for a pizza slice.

I think there is a decent chance that today's events in Cyprus will generate enough demand this week to push price permanently over $50.  And also gold over $1600.

I hope so. But how big is BTC in Cyprus? Do a lot of people know about it? I think that we should use this to advertize BTC in Cyprus so they don't all end up buying gold instead.

Money in Cypriot banks are half Russian money. The problem in Cyprus is way more complex than you think.

My guess is that the demand for BTC this week will be coming not from Cypriots, but from the rest of Europe, scared of seeing something similar happening at home...

Motion to rename this forum to "Take spot rate, add or subtract $3 to it, then make a thread about when it will hit the sum/difference"

Motion noticed

Well well. You just couldn't help yourselves, could you. $50 broken way before the end of the month.

Ohh my, time to rename this thread.

Change it to "Will Bitcoin ever hit $10k?" ;D

Who's up for a $60 thread?

lets go for 60 first... we might get that within this week

60 has already been hit.Perhaps a 70 thread.
