Steam is the one everyone is waiting for. I wonder whether they'll pull their finger out any time in the near future.
It would be absolutely huge if they did, but I doub it Gabe just doesn't seem to care about Bitcoin, the biggest companies are always the slowest to adopt this kind of thing. If they think they can get another bit of the market by offering Bitcoin payments, then they surely will adopt Bitcoin. If G2A seems to do good with their Bitcoin acceptance, then others in the game industry will follow. It's only a matter of time.

The drops will be always with us lol, but in generally i hope to see it that the price will increase. Ups and downs but at the end the price to be more than it is now. (~240 USD) Maybe we will reach again ~$200 but it should be also a jump.
We seem to be in a (modest) uptrend now. $220 would be a support level. Well i am good at this price at the moment ~240 USD. But i don't like when i see downs in the bitcoin price chart (and i hate the red color) I don't think that it will reach again $200 this month. Agree with you, it's over who want to buy bitcoin in cheap price and now you will never seen price under $220. But now price still in the lowest level and i think we still can get profit if buy it now Long term holders will surely get a nice return on their investment if they buy now. The only thing you need to have is a good bit of patience.

When an actual price change occurs bitstamp volume is tiny. But when nothing is happening suddenly people "trade" thousands of Bitcoins back and forth with no price movement whatsover.
What also happens is that whale traders want to increase their total generated volume for the month to get lower fees in return. This mostly happens when there isn't volume. That makes it easy for them to put up a large buy wall and dump in their own buy wall a second later to prevent others from buying up their coins. unlikely especially considering there isnt much "real" liquidity on that exchange anymore. You ought to take a look at what Bobby Lee CEO of BTCChina says about these kinds of things way back in early 2014 (hint: nothing has changed). Bobby Lee on exchange volume deception: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2M12zzwNkCo&t=12m35sThanks for the video. I found the part where he discussed phantom orders the most interesting. Back in the time in 2014 where I was doing altcoin trading these phantom orders where obviously visible on exchanges as bittrex and cryptsy. Till this day on Bitstamp, I haven't noticed these forms of manipulation. Or they manage to hide them so most people don't notice anything.

It's nice to see we finally breached through the $250 barrier today on Bitfinex. I hope we can manage to stay slightly above the $250 as I don't think we'll see the price advance further to $260 this week.

To me Bitcoin is the best investment of my life. In the years I have traded Bitcoin it made me a good profit. I used to trade stocks and that gave me around 10% profit per year. Bitcoin trading made me this current year already around 60% profit, and the year isn't over yet.

While I like this initiative because it's new and fresh, I also have my thoughts on letting a third party have control over my money. I like Bitcoin for one of the many reasons being I can be the boss over my own money. That's not the case with banks, and also not here with this Piggy Bank.

It's not going to happen, not even $10,000 in plenty of years. We might be lucky if we'll see the price go to $2000 as max ATH, which isn't that unreasonable after we manage to get more investor money on board. But at this point it's a million miles away

no signature campaign there, no fun, i like to post and earn bitcoin directly, without using fiat crap money
I understand your point. But being part of the Bitcoin community and being a member of these forums ins't a job. People share their opinions, help others, and go in depth about the technical aspects of Bitcoin. why it should not be a job,? no one said that bitcoin job should be the same as a regular job, everything that gives you profit is a job for me it's not even about greediness, i just find it cool to earn bitcoin in this way, and it perfectly fit with the bitcoin theme Well, I don't consider earning some bits through signature campaigns a job, which for you is totally different I see. To me it's pure fun earning a few bits and spend them on a domain or something else. It's basically getting rewarded for something you would do anyway.

It took me around 100 days to make my first 1 btc but after that every thing got fast. So how long did it take you to make the first btc? and I would like to know how did you get those. I got mine mostly by selling services and small faucets I have never bought a single BTC in my life, when i first found out about the bitcoin network it was pretty hard but after i managed to collect 1 BTC i turned it into 46 BTC the same day. are you sure dude? that was pretty hard to got 4600% profit in the same day even with gambling , im so curios , or you can tell me the method , im not begging just curious He probably means he turned it into 46 testnet Bitcoins Can't think of anything that will give him that much return on just 1 Bitcoin.

Not that hard to answer. I'm nearly sure we will stay above $200 and below $300 for this entire year. Perhaps we might see a bit of panic causing the price to try go below $200 but I'm sure there will be enough support to hold it.

Every one is looking forward to the block halving because they expect the price to rise considerably. I wouldn't be surprised if we see a huge dump at some point just before the halving to scare off people. Everything is possible.

Nearly all Bitcoin exchanges have been guilty of faking volume. Especially in these lower volume days they are doing their work to keep the volumes at least above a certain amount. Can you name 1 exchange that doesn't do this?

As you can see, still too many people on the forum who live in fantasy-land. As long as these people exist, bitcoin won't go near the moon at all. Say sayonara to your greedy dreams, losers!!!
These people who are indeed living in a fantasy land are the one's who probably won't sell untill it reaches a price they are happy with. Which is somewhere in the range of $10,000

$50000 seems impossible to me. We aren't even sure if BTC price will ever reach $1000 again in the next five years. Maybe it will take some decades but I'm sure there's new technology that's better than BTC in the future and people will eventually lose their interest in Bitcoin.
It is impossible if you look at it from a realistic point of view. I'm more than happy if we can manage to keep the price above $500 in the near future. What happens after that isn't of any importance as you can't predict what Bitcoin will do.

This is not going to happen very soon then , unless they decide to expand to worldwide or at least to Europe as a start . because ONLY supprting USA aint going do much to the price .
It's not a problem if it takes a bit of time to build up things and see that being reflected in the Bitcoin price. Slow but steady growth, I prefer it this way. As soon as they let other countries use their platform then it will be more widely used. They need market movers, but it is very hard to convince them to leave the current exchanges with the low volume currently of Gemini.

So because an exhcange that is hardly 2 days old has little volume yet it is considered a failure?
People are probably still trying to get their USD onto the exchange..
I won't consider it a failure unless the twins close their exchange due to lack of interest, abandon their ETF plans, and dump all their Bitcoins Although many small alt coin exchanges have closed due to lack of interest this year I don't think the twin's exchange will. I admit I was hoping for more volume on the first day of trading, but Rome wasn't built in a day. Where can you see how much volume Gemini exchange generated in the last 24 hours? Beside that, you guys have to give their exchange time to settle and find the right place in the current market. If large traders don't consider Gemini exchange worth leaving Bitstamp, Bitfinex, etc, for then they have a little problem. Give them at least a few months time to build op their volume. Also, I prefer an exchange that shows real volume instead of producing loads of fake volume. At this link. http://bitcoinity.org/markets/gemini/USD?theme=lightThat 77 bitcoin spike last night means someone got money and bitcoins onto gemini. Was that due to one of the lucky few that got a fast bank transfer completed before everyone else? The sell wall above $250 has grown from 30 coins after launch to over 200 coins today. After it goes over 1000 coins the exchange will begin to look more serious. Thanks for sharing. The volume is indeed very low. Even lowen than I expected it to be, but as I said in my previous post here in this thread, we need to give them time. No exchange directly gets huge loads of volume.

Klopp is a great trainer for sure, but I don't think that he is able to make them finish in top 4 this season with the average players he have to deal with. The only world class player they have is Coutinho. Which isn't exactly enough for a club as Liverpool.
