I got in btc a few years ago in the first place to make profit.

After a while I had a better look into what Bitcoin really is. And after that I got hooked 

I support Bitcoin because it has potential. Profits are nice but not my main reason for loving Bitcoin.

And back is the volatility 

Bitcoin will act when people don't expect it, that's how it is for years.

Let's see how long the price can stay above $250 level. It looks quite weak at this point.

I use Bitcoin to make payments nearly everyday. I convert my fiat to BTC to make the payments. From that view the price is not important to me.

It's a different story for my coins that I have for trading purposes. Here I do care about the price for obvious reasons.

My cold wallet coins will stay offline in my wallet for years. I don't care what the price is now as I don't plan to do anything with them.

That's the point.

How long will they push the blockchain aside and continue with their old fashion methods for squeezing billions out of our pockets.

They have to deal with share holders, profit targets, etc. They can't afford to use a new technology and instantly lose billions in revenue and profit.

I think it will take at least 5 years before we see any kind of blockchain integration in the financial world.

People (mostly average joes) already associate Bitcoin with underground and or illegal activities.

I think there is a certain need for the service that Kim offers.

I would want to see him get his service to a point that everything is decentralized.

I really enjoyed Besiktas - Liverpool match, deserved win for Besiktas.

I usually don't follow Turkish football, but after seeing the match yesterday I will watch it more often.

At this point it's a bit mixed, some services and exchanges use XBT and other still BTC.

Curious to see when they will change their BTC symbol to XBT.

I also think XBT will be the main currency symbol in the long run.

Could? It will, if used.

Currently the banks and the services that they offer do not match the year we live in.

It's dated, and they know that. They seem to review the possibilities of having a blockchain which is a good thing.

No surprise at all.

Bitstamp lost quite a bit of its large traders due to the hack.

Even before that, large traders were moving their stash away to exchanges with larger volumes.

No matter how much I like Bitstamp, it was and will always stay an exchange that follows other exchanges.

Bitfinex seems to do a better job in satisfying their customers it seems. It's growing and growing.

Last bump.

After 48 hours I will lock this thread if no bid comes through.

I offer you $100 here for that domain in Bitcoin.

I don't use flippa because they don't allow Bitcoin payments.

Again City doesn't know to impress against Barcelona....

City with soo much financial power didn't even manage to improve after the previous matches against Barca.

Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona lonely on top of the football world.

It's a free market. Every trader is free to sell or buy loads of coins at any time.

Bad news after more bad news is what made the price most likely go down quite a bit.

Every exchange has their own orderbook, which is weak in every perspective.

Large dumps on one important exchange makes the price go down on every exchange.

With only one orderbook the price would be way more stable.

That in return would make merchants more willing to keep the Bitcoins instead of having a third party that converts it instantly to fiat.

Well, some one has to be the first person to make the important first step.

I'm sure if it works out well then other banks might follow.

Great news, we need more cooperation from the financial sector.

I mostly use the blockchain app, which is working quite well.

I'm only looking for a solid and safe ios app which I haven't found yet.

It's a very exciting fight, indeed.

However, I think United will lose the fight in the comming matches and lose more space.

I find it hard to believe they can get their hands on a Champions League ticket.

It's a great sign of some believe in Bitcoin from CNN.

Every step in the right direction counts and is important.

XBT is already being used by exchanges and other sites, it's not new.

I think more and more companies and services, etc, will use XBT in the future.

Thieves steal everything that has value. It's not that they specifically search for Bitcoin.

Gold and silverware can also be turned into hard cash without being noticed.

It would have never happened anyway.

I really can't see a whole country adopt Bitcoin to get rid of a certain problem.

Europe should take its loss instead of feeding Greece billions and billions.

We in Western Europe has to deal with poverty in our supposed "wealthy countries" and what do we do? We give away cash that we ourself need so badly.

Money moves mountains.

At this point there is soo little money in Bitcoin that real investors with hundreds of millions of new money can shake things up quite a bit.

Best years for Bitcoin will come, don't worry. If you do worry, then sell your coins.
