A touch under $230 now. I guess the OP was close enough.  |

This bloke shot the girl he was in love with and then shot himself. The murder should be making headlines, not the suicide. |

I would say buy low and trade btc. Use the markets and play futures and options to increase your btc. This is my plan to get rich. Options trading. Vanilla and Binary options!
You can do that... Until one unexpected move wipes out your capital. |

no never gold is probably not the rigjt commodity if you are think about a short-time investment insted try to invest on oil that is a good short time investment and really profitabpe it done correctly
Any logic in that? Oil is pretty volatile too. If you are investing in paper (e-gold) then it is probably okay. If you are investing in physical gold, there will be transaction costs which are substantial. |

Doesn't the cost of printing that amount of paper exceeds its market value ?  That is the reason why those notes are no longer printed. They need to add an extra zero to the notes they print every once in a while. |

I feel like there's a lot of sexism in this thread. Now put down your pitchforks, I'm no activist or anything, but what's the difference? If a guy or girl wants to use bitcoin and understands it, they can and will.
There is no difference only that most are men who use Bitcoin..i thinnk so  It flows down from the fact that there are more men than women in computer science and technology in general. |

it's a good strategy actually, saving a small amount in bitcoin, let's say 10 coins, and waiting for 100k in price, than going full retarded and buying 1k coins and waiting for 1k
in the first case there is almost no risk, unless you're living on the street, but the wait will kill you i presume, in the second case, the risk is greater but the chances are bigger
The 2 are completely different and will be attained (if at all) with a large time difference between them. You can't call "waiting for 100K" as a strategy. It reminds me of those waiting for $10 bitcoins.  |

All that these geniuses of economics have given us is a financial system that is on the brink of collapse.
If he came up with a solution for the problems we have now then I'll consider him a genius but until then he is just one of those who contributed to the mess we are in at this stage.
Economists don't provide solutions, they explain problems.  That said, people with traditional mindsets can't really understand Bitcoin's potential. Krugman has been wrong about crude, he has a far lesser probability about being right about Bitcoin. |

Do you mean Auroracoin? It was not an official crypto coin of Iceland. I think, an official fully decentralized and authorized crypto coin would have more success. Didn't work out so well for Iceland or canada. I don't know how these geniuses miss the importance of decentralization every time?
Would the authorities be interested in creating a truly decentralized currency? If yes, them they might as well adopt one of the existing ones. |

http://digitalmoneytimes.com/crypto-news/altcoin-pump-dump-punishable-law-south-korea/Virtual currencies are often associated with all kinds of negative terms, including scams, hacks and pump-and-dump schemes. Especially the latter category is far more common in the world of virtual currencies than one might assume, as most of the “altcoins” are created by a group of developers looking to make a quick buck. In all fairness, with over 4,000 virtual currencies in existence already, there is no need to create more. Market manipulation is certainly against the code of ethics of the trading community. While it may be punishable by law as well, the difficulty is in proving the charges with respect to altcoins. |

I think that it is selfish under certain circumstances; they didn't tell anyone about their problems, and didn't offer anyone a chance to help them. That could make the parents or friends blame themselves for not seeing the problem. This could lead to a cluster suicide. I think that it isn't selfish and just thier choice if they have tried everything they could. I don't support suicide at all.
It could be termed escapism / selfishness even if they tried everything. Santhara, however, is way, way different. |

That isn't a real cause of concern. Companies aren't going to move away from the US just because settlement times are quicker. And when US blockchain start ups compete with legacy companies, they are going to come out tops! |

Are these empty threats or were actual bombs planted? These extortionists seem to have been successful in blackmailing private enterprises. |

The thing with most of these ponzi schemes is that it is the late investors who end up losing all their money. If you are an early investor, who is intelligent enough to decide what is the best time to pull the plug, then these ponzis and HYIPs can turn out to be a boon for you. Off course, the risks are there, so be cautious.
Unfortunately, most people consider themselves to be of "above average" intelligence. I have seen a lot of people knowingly investing in ponzis and then whining when it goes bust. |

Having a population of 1,300 million is a curse, if 99% of it is lacking the necessary skills. Look at China. They also have a similar population (and 3 times the land area). The Chinese government invested quite heavily in improving the technical skills of its population during the 1990s. As a result China is the world's manufacturing hub right now.
China seems to have found its strength in manufacturing, India in Software Services. The private sector has stepped in to fill the void left by the government in skill development. Both models (government led and private-sector led) seem to work. Having said that, I don't see large scale usage/awareness about Bitcoin even among software professionals. This is surprising. |

If it stays above $240 for some time, $240 could form a support level. We will have to find the next range. |

2017 is far away from now and it can happen to be the price of $460 it is just a double jump from now
The block reward halving is the joker in the pack - nobody knows what effect that will have on the price. After that is completed, we can start making predictions about 2017.  |

... since pension funds would generally just buy and hodl, leaving less bitcoins on exchanges.
Reality Check : The venture arm of a major Canadian pension fund is reportedly looking at making investments in bitcoin and blockchain startups.There won't be any investments in bitcoins (which are way too risky). So no buy and hold strategy either. |

i would buy more bitcoins if it reaches 50 dollars,but i would search to know why it crashed , bitcoin is the king already some years inside it we reached 1000 dollars and dumped it,in a future of 20 or more years can become the new gold,world currency to pay anything and run away from credit cards and big fees.For another point if bitcoin crash soo heavy im sure must altcoins will follow and loose value in a short time,bitcoin is the exchange usd altcoins market....
There doesn't have to be a reason for everything. You can always rationalize, but you may never know the true reason (if there is one). Nobody knows the reason why BTC dropped from $600 to $300 and now to $200s. So you may have to just take a call - to buy or not to buy at $50. |
