Title: Re: Bloomberg bitcoin domains keep value Post by: Divinespark on July 21, 2014, 04:30:11 AM Interesting insights, makes me think I should hang on to the domains I have for a bit longer
Thanks for sharing Title: Re: Bloomberg bitcoin domains keep value Post by: sugarfree on July 21, 2014, 05:26:04 AM There has been no drop. $500, 600, 700, 800, 900 1000, etc. was abnormal exchange rates. The last stable exchange rate was between $45 and $125. There have been a price increase
Title: Re: Bloomberg bitcoin domains keep value Post by: Summer,69 on July 21, 2014, 08:31:49 AM I have bought a few too...have a couple that seem good and trying to figure out the best way to list them and trying to figure out an approximate market price.
Title: Re: Bloomberg bitcoin domains keep value Post by: 2good2betrue on July 21, 2014, 08:40:21 AM One of the hard things about buying bitcoin domain names is that they can end in anything (.com, .info, .io, .org)
Title: Re: Bloomberg bitcoin domains keep value Post by: 2good2betrue on July 21, 2014, 08:47:09 AM I have bought up a couple myself, but I am always weighing it against buying some bitcoin. Sometimes when I think of a really good domain name and then it turns out to be taken, I am kind of happy because I don't feel the pressure to buy it.
I bought www.mtsig.com last week and I was pretty happy about that, I think as long as I use them for something they are worth it.

I bought www.mtsig.com last week and I was pretty happy about that, I think as long as I use them for something they are worth it. As somebody who invested six figures in domain names over the last decade: just buy bitcoins. The need for a great domain name (and thus the demand for them) is rapidly declining and will only get worse as the internet moves to mobile apps and platforms instead of individual websites. Ya if you could go back in time to 2008 and register a bunch of bitcoin related domains it'd be nice but short of that, people are just wasting their money.

The last stable exchange rate was between $45 and $125. There have been a price increase Yeah exactly, I don't really get the 'drop in value' or 'comes back from the dead' or similar headlines. Bitcoin is still up almost 1000% from last year's value and yet media reports keep on ranting. At least the media coverage seems to get better now! Title: Re: Bloomberg bitcoin domains keep value Post by: banque on July 21, 2014, 01:21:43 PM Agree, btc is like fast moving net bubble stock.
Peaks and valley Peaks are speculation Valleys are floors of real financial support There's support around $600 now due to big time money now involved in btc That's why NY is ahead of the curve with regulation, big money is based in NY and they want to legitimze btc so they can control it BTC is moving into mainstream and the floor of support is now 600 bucks or so which is a huge gain from a year ago. So yeah, btc is now down, we're just in the valley of the most recent growth bubble which is keying off of user base. |
