Bitcoin Price Watch; Riding the Morning VolatilityIt’s time to put together the first of our twice daily bitcoin price watch pieces, and in what looks to be a stark contrast to the action we saw over the last week or so, things have been pretty flat overnight. Price reached highs of a little over $725 across the major exchanges early this week (as most reading will already be aware) but has since corrected to where it currently trades, circa 670-680, and looks as though it might maintain this level for a sustained period... read more

Bitcoin Price Watch; This Evening’s Strategy – Caution…The day is about to draw to a close out of Europe in the bitcoin price, and the US afternoon is about to get underway. Beyond that, the Asian market will kick off sometime later on this evening, while Europe sleeps. With so much happening in the bitcoin space right now, there is plenty of volatility to go at from an intraday trading strategy perspective. This morning, we noted that we would be trading breakouts on the recently seen correction from yesterday’s highs, and that we would use the levels defined by this correction as our entry and exit points... read more

Bitcoin Price Watch; 700 Close, But Be CarefulOver the last few months, we have repeatedly noted the big moves in the bitcoin price, during the weekend. Primarily, this is a result of volume out of Asia, but also it seems to be a time at which markets unwind in a particular direction, and this unwinding translates to sustained volatility. This weekend is no different, however, the magnitude of the move altered slightly. Specifically, price broke through the 600 level – a level that we had slated as psychologically significant early last week – and continues to gain strength to reach just shy of 700... read more

They might as well start accepting bitcoin or risk staying far behind. In fact, Bitcoin is the PayPal killer, so, if they won't try to start using it, they will be signing their death sentence.

IMO Ethereum is one of the possible Bitcoin Killers. If you want to invest in another crypto you might take a look at it. You can also check out LISK and the Dao, I believe it is a good investment as well!

I'm confident that it will easily go through the $700 barrier. In fact, I positive that it will go past the $1000 barrier before the halving. Anyone hoping for this as well?

I strongly believe that there is that possibility. For now, Ethereum could be the one crypto who can be able to dethrone Bitcoin. Bitcoin has a lot of limitations, so it is pretty possible that the crypto who presents technical enhancements could become the bitcoin killer!
