In times of global surveillance and ever restrictive governments that limit personal and information freedom we need tools to counter these measures. Bitcoin, not the protocol but the idea, is one of them.
An idea is not a tool. A protocol is a tool.

agree with all of the above except the comment of "hot air". The forecast service builds on in depth analysis and continuously outperforms buy and hold.
But this is not to advertise the forecasting service, it's about seriously protecting wealth in the next years. Those who don't see the risk and those who dont want any forecast, do not need to follow or read this thread.
Unfortunately I am not rich... We are talking a couple of thousands here
Believe me, if you invested at date you registered (2010-09-18) $100 USD and bought 1,600 BTC @ $0.06 then BUY AND HOLD you have more than a couple of thousands here My sentiments precisley. Something doesn't quite add up and I have filed it in the "Too Good To Be True" folder but maybe I am being cynical :-) Maybe he means a couple of thousand BTC?

i see this crap all the time, especially with after hours earnings reports which gap up or down up to 20%. it's unfair for most investors.
As an investor in stocks, you can't afford not to sell some option premium against what you hold, especially around earnings reports. I had stocks go 30% against me after earnings and I would've never been able to recover those positions if it wasn't for half a year of selling calls against them.

lol going long on Huobi/OKcoin is oh so tempting , i doubt i could get 10x on my holdings, if i did i'd absolutely destroy their orderbook.
It's problem you face as a larger trader.. you have to trade against the momentum really I enjoy trading small amounts on small $10 swings. If I make a bad call, it is easy to get out even or at a negligible loss. Anything over 100-200 coins takes a different strategy, much better execution, and is usually higher risk. True but leaving capital to trade 100+ coins laying around doing nothing also costs money, that's a cost of missing opportunity elsewhere.

like i said, Huobi needs time to consolidate, there's a big battle to be had for 3,000.
Bitstamp and Bitfinex both proved their power by buying out similar sized walls easily and in big chunks. The reason i hate that we follow China is they don't seem to have the power to buy as big. They do have bigger volume but there's rarely ever a buy over 200btc, it's just thousands of small trades over and over because of the 0 fees. That's why it's so frustrating to see us follow them, when clearly we have the bigger and more powerful traders.
Just open a 10x leveraged long position on OKCoin, that way you can push some volume in there yourself

... Analyst opinions are a lagging indicator..
The useful and prescriptive indicator being opinions of the ignorant? Analysts and ignorants are not mutually exclusive. ... don't pay attention to it. How the hell can you compare a payment system with a precious metal anyway?
Because many Bitcoiners consider it a store of value? I don't think it matters what a handful of bitcoiners think when bitcoin becomes used by the masses through Paypal and the likes.

https://hitbtc.com/market-analytics"Talk is also starting to pick up in Bitcoin circles that big players might be considering taking some profits from their early entries and mining profitability is starting to get stressed at these prices.

If I remember it right, Wordpress accepting bitcoin killed the decline around November 2012 and sparked a major rally. Are we seeing the same thing play out now but on a larger scale? it's ludicrous for ppl to think merchant additions is bearish b/c of the immediate conversion to fiat. yes, this "apparent" relationship is gonna flip in a vicious way for those banking on it. the addition of Paypal will be huge for Bitcoin as it essentially integrates/envelops/takesover/gobbles its biggest pure digital currency competitor. If COIN were to exist, we would've seen a guaranteed 10% jump up in price considering the current stock market. If the paypal news is true, this could be a buying opportunity of the decade.

If you anticipate there will be a spike in 2016, why not set aside a certain amount each month (say $20 - 24 X $20 = $480 - close enough to 1 BTC at the going rate) into a wallet on a computer or device you won't touch and in two years time when the chain of events are right, you can strike while the iron is hot.
Come on man, that is so boring. I want a LARGE btc position when that happens, not just a mediocre one.

Although I am cursing this decline like I did with the one in 2011, they can be great wealth builders. I'm daytrading a seed capital into a nice btc position by constantly selling and buying back more btc with the proceeds. You have to be disciplined enough to continue doing this no matter what, but as long as bitcoin turns around at some point in the future you'll be sitting on a handsome profit

So is there any news related to this bump that I am missing here? Not that I am complaining. Yes, huge news: chart movement in last days and trader tension. As most of the time of huge moves, no other news. QE in the Euro

It's hard to say.. the price is reacting different to the drops these days. Where you would have a guaranteed bounce before, nothing happens now. I think a lot of daytraders left and were replaced with algos. Also the increased number of exchanges has probably put a damper on the movements.

2006? Doesn't seem that old then. I mean when did online trading become big? I don't really know, but I'd have thought it was already quite big back then, at least when it comes to "professional" traders! Be careful, it is not real bitcoin trading. It is CFD. You will lose all your money very fast. especially in bucket shops like these
