There is no real reason to "buy" them when they are so easy to get in other ways. But i assume that several outsiders have bought into the hype lately and that is the reason the market cap jumped and thusly the price. Only outsiders first joining into the Bitcoin world will actually "buy" their coins.
easy? where? aside from big farm and signature campign it's very hard to acquire bitcoin without buying, and signature give you 0.5 a month per senior/hero account no they are not easy at all to earn

as i said you need two halving to force the price to increase or basically every miners will be out of the game, which mean bitcoin is dead
if the price remain in the range of 200-300 when the 2020 halving will kick in, no efficiency will save the miners, so in 5 years you will know about the fate of bitcoin

not on bitcoin.org yet, if it's not mandatory to upgrade i'll wait

i actually wish what i can avoid to pay with bitcoin, like taxes ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) and all that scam money that the government want from us it will be fun to see the tax evasion when bitcoin will reach mainstream, because i'm sure that with open bazar already or with used things, bought, face to face will be really hard to track everything

In 2030 there's probably about 9 billion + people in the world and there will only ever be 21 million bitcoins. So quite a lot obviously.
much less than that, remember the 1M satoshi coins, plus all the other coins that are lost, and i would count the satoshi coins as a lost too so we are with 3M less probably, so 18M total coins, plus only a fraction are on the market, so in 2030, have even 0.1 would be very hard
|
|
|
it was said 3M as average, but this number was higher for sure when the price was higher also, now it's probably less because of the low price
i remember that doge brought many newbies to bitcoin, for sure there can't be less than 1M

that graph is incomplete, all the movements in 2011-2013 era are important to for study the future changes that may happen
there were enormous pump back then that cannot be not considered

Saving money = not spending it ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) or investing in something that you know will increase in value at least at 70% of chances, like bitcoin

WTF is this thread ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) A block reward halving already happened from 50 to 25 BTC. Nobody got crazy, everyone knew what was happening. Why should anything be different in July? 12.5 BTC per block is your new game. Get used to it, and get used to a higher USD/BTC ratio. well in theory because the lower the block reward the less margin miners will have for they profit, it mean that they must rely more on the price increase, so it make in theory, sense that they are against it but they know that changing anything so critical about bitcoin will actually kill their profit anyway, so nothing will really happen by this point of view

Bitcoin cannot inflate, the number of Bitcoins decreases. It is virtually impossible for Bitcoins to inflate.
Uh.. NO! Bitcoins are generated in the process of mining up to around 2140. The number of Bitcoins continually increases until then. As said earlier, the rate of the supply if Bitcoin increasing will decrease exponentially, but the supply is still increasing. but you can look at this from another point of view, which mean that inflation is decreasing every 4 years with bitcoin, and will reach almost zero in few years, no need to wait 2140 for that to happen

don't forgot that every zone in the world have a max electrcity output, so they can't simply add more mienrs forever on the same place, not matter how free space they have
this will cut centralization, unless the same guy control more bitcoin farm around the world, but i don't believe there is a single entity so rich at the moment

BTC to the moon on halving ! That's the way to go ! Hahaha
price is already 50% higher, now that we are still many months away, a 100% increase is more than possible by the time the halving kick in, this is good so the miners will not leave, and keep securing the network
|
|
|
man it's simple, with that power you have 0.00000001 a day
this mean that for one block you need 100M days for 1 btc, and 2500M days for 1 block, assuming diff stay the same

i'm interested in this, first thing
i tried to buy less than the hash of one single unit, but you can only put the number of unit there, i'm missing something? (not talking about pakmic)
the second is, how much is your net profit? i'm curious about the exact fee, i don't like to have surprise after i bough something
|
|
|
bit-x and magicdice around 0.5 per month, the other are all below
i hope for a better competition in the future, so many campaign will remove the limit and not just bit-x...

also there is no way to really know that the bitcoin of the early adopters really shifted they owner, there are some of them who play in the market with themselves, to manipulate it other have formed a group so they share all the coins, maybe real friends and stuff like that
but it's kown that the majority are at loss and only a tiny amount of people is earning big, then you get the random guy who is +0.1% in profit

I think bitcoin really need advertising, in my area just me know about bitcoin, they are also active on the internet but don't know about bitcoin ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) thats why need advertising people know about it alright, mass adoption has been dropped off on the doorstep they don't see the reason to shift...yet fiat is still strong for them some people are willing to pay more in fees, because they feel more secure with it i think there is the need to put an emphasis on the fact that bitcoin can save you money every time you spend it compared to fiat
|
|
|
i would say this, if people are willing to pay more the price will increase, because simply buying at the same value will not cut it, also the amount of coins available is far less than the current amount in circulation(almost 15M)
everyone is holding, i would not be suprised if there are only 1M-3M max coins available to be purchased, so if for example, for every 1k coins sold, the price increase by $1, we won't achieve much...
