.... and "the Internet" is able to investigate and debunk this fraud in minutes while investigative journalists are fooled once again. https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/4hflr3/craig_wrights_signature_is_worthless/JoukeH discovered that the signature on Craig Wright's blog post is not a signature of any "Sartre" message, but just the signature inside of Satoshi's 2009 Bitcoin transaction. It absolutely doesn't show that Wright is Satoshi, and it does very strongly imply that the purpose of the blog post was to deceive people. So Craig Wright is once again shown to be a likely scammer. When will the media learn?" Take the signature being “verified” as proof in the blog post: MEUCIQDBKn1Uly8m0UyzETObUSL4wYdBfd4ejvtoQfVcNCIK4AIgZmMsXNQWHvo6KDd2Tu6euEl13VT C3ihl6XUlhcU+fM4= Convert to hex: 3045022100c12a7d54972f26d14cb311339b5122f8c187417dde1e8efb6841f55c34220ae002206 6632c5cd4161efa3a2837764eee9eb84975dd54c2de2865e9752585c53e7cce Find it in Satoshi's 2009 transaction: https://blockchain.info/tx/828ef3b079f9c23829c56fe86e85b4a69d9e06e5b54ea597eef5fb3ffef509fe?format=hexPathetic that Gavin went along with this without being more skeptical. gavin lost all his credits at the moment he walked over to an alternative client. he is only out to disrupt bitcoin at this point. it's indeed very pathetic. |

Im waiting for the halving effect that's why as much as possible Im monitoring the bitcoin price everyday to make at least a good ride for the train that will passed by.
It's really a good thing to take advantage of the price dip today because if all speculations will become true, the price will only surge upwards meaning only lesser dip will happen so we have no choice but to buy for an unusual price.
the price wen't down around $12 just now, but i don't think there is much difference for people that will hold their coins for the long term. for these people the price being $10-$20 higher or lower will not affect their long term profits at all. but that's completely different for day traders. for them these price swings are more than welcome. |

and the most confusing sentence is when craight says that if he were don't use satoshi nakamoto as alias and just use his real name it'll potentially affect and give problem to his family or even his staff,and friend,then ,why did he published himself right now? ,can anyone explain it?
and why don't simply show up his 650k BTC
this dude is making a fool out of himself as he has no way to proof he is mr satoshi nakamoto. even the idiotic media will at some point realize that. no signing of private keys means this fool is NO satoshi. |

"I'm also holding because I think the bitcoin is gonna rise to a higher amount for sure, I really have the feeling the bitcoins is also gonna get a lot bigger if this happen.
A lot of people are now holding their bitcoin because a lot of people also know its gonna be a good time for the bitcoin this year.
This year will not not be boring at all for the bitcoin, I really have no doubt about that with the halving that is coming."
Why do most posts lately sound just like this dribble? is this a fucking moron, someone who barely has a grasp on the english language, someone trolling for jollies, or simply a spamming bot?
Also, to the original poster: update to satisfy our curiosity, please tell me you reconsidered and didn't hodl till now.
people nowadays don't take the effort to write something they come up with, and thus they just browse through this thread and somewhat copy other posts and slightly rephrase it to make it look like it isn't copied. |

2017 will not be the year because 2016 will already be it in my eyes due to the upcoming events that are coming this year.
There is just such a good chance that the bitcoin is gonna be very good this year.
what upcoming events are you talking about? there is only the block halving that people put too much faith in and maybe the block size that will get increased to 2mb this year. the latter will most likely have only a very short term price increase as result. |

What is the point of holding bitcoin forever
and never sell it ?
...than BTC is just worthless numbers in your PC.
no one will keep their coins for ever. they surely will sell to secure profits at some point when the price reaches a level that they are happy with. for ever in this forum translates into something as a few years. |

In most of the countries only few people use bitcoin, because of unfamiliar, some poeple dont try bitcoin because its not famous , That is the biggest hurdle that bitcoin is not replacing the FAIT
There are so many factor why it can't replace fiat. It's not just because of popularity or being unfamiliar. Not all countries is reach, there are still third world countries that has no electricity, internet or can't even buy phones. Maybe in the future it will until these countries rise up. But i think it's gonna be long waiting. beside third world countries having barely access to power and internet there is an even more important reason why bitcoin will never replace fiat currencies. and that's control over the entire economy. if they allow bitcoin to take over, then the control over the financial aspect of an economy will be in the hands of the people instead of governments and their supported banks. they will lose out on many billions every year. they will never let that happen. |

As of today I'm part of the Elite's. I just gathered my 10th Bitcoin and moved it to cold storage as a long term investment
10 bitcoin is quite a lot of money even for now. In 20 years, you will be a multi millionaire or even more. multi millionaire with 10 bitcoins? just no. it will mean that 1 bitcoin will be worth more than $200,000 in order to be multi millionaire with only 10 bitcoins. it won't happen. |

Given the past record of bitcoin prices,I expect price to begin falling this week.I hope it turns out to be a wrong assumption but I have already start selling
Exactly you have taken a wrong decision, once you see a huge price rise you may get worried, if you have coins just invest it in a perfect manner and earn from it, so that you can have more money during halving period. That is right. I think bitcoin has great future. The current price is lower than its value. So I will buy some. The Bank of America said in 2013 that the bitcoin was worth $1200. We have more users, so it is worth more. don't look at what banks are saying. the all time high value back then was a well played game created by mtgox. it's basically pointless to look back at that price since it was created with fake orders. |

No way they will go back at $400 or else I will lose. Right now nearing the halving time, people are speculating that bitcoin value will rise and so do I that is why I am saving my coins for future and hoping the it will be bright.
The $400 is the rock bottom in the medium. It might be tested in the next few months, after that, we will not see $400 again. is possible to see the prices fall back to $ 400 at this time because i see after a few times bitcoin tried to get up and still not able breaking the price above $ 500. there is simply too much resistance around the $500 price level. you can compare it with when the price needed such a long time to break through the $300 price level. there were many attempts that came very close to $300 but it got dumped down again for many times. we need a lot buying power to force our way through every sell order that's popping up. it will be very difficult. |

The market cap of bitcoin will be much larger in 2020. Many people will use it and invest in it. So it will be more stable.
nothing will change when it comes to stability because whales will stay whales and they will keep moving the price in their favor. stability has only a chance when institutional investors step into the bitcoin market with their hundreds of millions of fresh capital. that's how you out rule the current whales. till that time the price will not be stable. |

i think this month will be the same as last month. the price might go up coming very close to $500 but not more than that.

if you consider btc as retirement fund then you will need more then 100 or more if you consider this as some other thing then the more you can gather
100btc is a very decent retirement amount to have. especially when the price keeps rising in the coming 20-30 years, assuming bitcoin still exists by that time. if the price goes up x10 from the current price then you'll have $450,000 to add on top of your normal retirement money. for the majority of the people here that is more than enough to live from their entire life once they retire. |

We are surely making history however Bitcoin market cap is way too small for Wall Street to get heavily involved in direct Bitcoin investment
well, i agree that the current market cap of bitcoin is a joke for wall street guys, but this offers them the chance to enter the market at current prices and then crank up the prices by x5-x10 and then rule the entire bitcoin market with iron fist. and who knows, maybe they are already slowly accumulating coins to not affect the price too much. |

Thought the price will go down faster to around 400, but seems it is holding around the 450 mark. Go bitcoin.
I do not think prices will down back below $400, most likely halving will affect the price, I hope the people panic before halving. i am sure that there will be a huge load of panic buying by people just before the block halving. and that will push the price to it's highest point in around 1.5 years. i am only not so sure if that price will be maintained for long as a lot people have their finger hovering above the sell button to secure profits. |

Nobody will know what the halving will bring and that is the problem because you also dont even know what to do sometimes with the currency and that can be a problem to you.
So it is now better if you are waiting a longer time and than you can make profit later in the future maybe.
each market in the world is unpredictable for the average trader. only market movers have a clue of where the price is heading to. they have enough financial power to move markets in their desired direction. it's a normal thing and definitely not a problem. |

I think it's really good to invest 1 bitcoin for now. You can see now the price of bitcoin increase so high since 1 week ago, it will continue increasing until halving for sure.
yeah while bitcoin has fluctuations and rapid price movements is certainly still very possible to get a huge profit in a short time regardless of the time it was a great time but it depends on much risk you want to receive? for purchase at this time may be quite large risks. as prices rose and many people are waiting for price drops to buy Yeah agree its good and longterm investment if you biy 1 btc today and wait for halvinf event comes you surely earn big profit if you can wait when halving comes and its worth to wait for the right time money will come, and while halving is approaching you can do little investment like trading. you clearly expect miracles from the upcoming block halving. i can only agree that it is a good long term buy when you buy 1btc, but if you just hold it till the block halving, then you'll get a profit of around $100-$150 at most. and that's the best case scenario. you can also end up with much lower profits. don't expect too much. |

so you're planning to reduce the number of your senior members participant?
Yes, if the natural leaving will not sufficient. i was about to suggest to decrease the amount of inactive days significantly, but i see you already reduced the number of days where participants aren't posting. i think it should be reduced to 1 week as 15 days is still very long. what is the current status in percentages by member level that have joined this campaign? |

BTC will surely gone to 700 us dollar. and highest price will be 1700 us Dollar.
I think that it it going to be around $600 or $700. We are now almost at $500 so with eight months left it can surely rise up t0 $700. We have to wait and see what 2016 will bring us. My prediction for 2016 for Bitcoin is that it will only reach maybe maximal the $500 and that is because you already can see now that the value is not even rising. And that is bad for the most people who are waiting for a price increase and they want to make of course profit soon and that would be not possible for them. Its Quater 1 2016 and we are almost 500$. It will go beyond 1000$ this year. we're not even close to $500 at this point. to some people $50 might not look like a huge gap, but it will probably be one of the harder price levels to break through this year. let's just put our focus on reaching $500 and then $600 before dreaming about $1000 prices. if we somehow touch $800 this year, then i can understand that people are talking about reaching $1000, but not at this point. |
