I think it's normal for Bitcoin to slow down the transactions as what Ethereum also experience earlier this month. Not only for Bitcoin but also Ethereum and other Cryptocurrency network that will process a lot of transactions to confirm. This due is some of the reasons why some organizations are making hard forks is to speed up the transaction confirmation time. increasing the block size will reduce the confirmation time therefore almost all hard forks are increasing their Block Size from 1mb to 2mb or more.

I have a Bitcoin BTC wallet account in coins.ph and I'm holding it since July and it's not actually a huge Bitcoin amount but I saw an unconfirmed transaction that my Bitcoin is transferring to another wallet without my knowledge. It was hacked actually because I never did send my account into another's wallet.
It's been 4 days now that the unconfirmed transfer still unconfirmed so even though my Bitcoin is still on my wallet, I'll know that one of this days when it is confirmed then that's the end of my Bitcoin.
I'm really upset this event that someone will take away my Bitcoin that I've been keeping for half a year now.

The only thing that comes in my mind when Business establishment is accepting another mode of payment for their products and services through Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin then how would they handle the confirmations of the transactions that in every transaction will wait for number of days before the confirmation.
This way is not really reliable because recently Mc Donalds is announcing that their food chain establishment will accept Bitcoin as payments in the future but how exactly they are going to handle this one that when a person orders a burger using Bitcoin but i will take a week for the confirmation.
This is really ridiculous, online markets can only do this but in food chain? I think it's impossible.

I'm thinking the same way, only if we could turn back time then we are lucky because we know that Bitcoin will hit the market soon and we actually don't need to sell our properties when we have a job that could even invest a lot of Bitcoin from our own pocket.

If ever there's a crazy guy that is doing this kind of property selling just to invest into Bitcoin is more crazy than a gambler because even the gambler himself he'll think a million time before he's going to sell his properties. But if there's any person is selling his valuable property for Bitcoin then he is very lucky and the possibility is he will going to buy back the property then renovate and buy again another properties. And that's what we called lucky because He believe his instinct and believe that Bitcoin will multiply his investments.

That would be the craziest idea ever did of a Bitcoin fanatic person. Selling a house that not only the value in it but the memories that created by the whole family in it. Most people don't sell their house for any reason unless it's really need to but selling the property to enable to invest Bitcoin is the most stupid but lucky.

Sounds ridiculous but like this Bitcoin's bubble then it's a clever idea that if you're going to sell your assets like house or land for Bitcoin then they'll suspecting that you're crazy but this kind of decision is as crazy guy since not everyone knows Bitcoin is.
But if there's a person who really doing this earlier this year or last year then he is very lucky but I don't really think an average person is doing this kind of gamble. LoL

Both party is advertising to each other so this is an advantage for some business companies for having multiple mode of payments especially Crypto-currencies will enable them to advance the competition. After this Mc Donalds announcement, we expect other food chains also will accept another mode of payment that is CYrpto-currencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum and other altcoins.

Now Bitcoin will help business establishment to promote the products but accepting another mode of payment using Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency that customers will find more convenient when they don't have any cash in their pockets but instead Bitcoin or digital coins that is available to pay.
Mc Donalds and other alike food chains will support Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies to be able them to make competitions and advancement.

Sounds good for online transactions and online stores wherein items are not in a rush. As of now it is not good to use bitcoin on a daily basis. Imagine buying a soda or a cup of coffee waiting for about 8 mins. or so just for the small transaction and the people behind you,complaining, waiting for too long. But who knows what the future has in-store for us.

If you do the math, investing $2,500 Bitcoin and other is Ethereum, it should be Bitcoin will give you clear return of investment after a half a year or will be doubled before a year.
Today, Bitcoin is worth buying and investing due to rocket price ince9in a small period of time.

No matter how small your money is but the best investment would be Bitcoin because the price is increasing continually everyday and every week.

The 2nd week of December will break the odds of prediction. Let's see and wait. But for me personally, it is the most exciting event to happen this year.

Maybe perhaps if Bitcoin will fire back after a week or less then it will possible.
Let's see until 2nd week of December, if it will reach $12,000 or $13,000 then the closing price of Bitcoin before 2018 is $15,000 or more.

The best clever decision is to hold more than half of portfolio and then invest the other portion into other Cryptocurrencies but if you need money then you can sell some of them.
Bitcoin has proven that it's price is constantly increasing so you'll regret if you sell your Bitcoin and after a year it will reach $50,000 to $100,000... That's more than you'll ever imagine

Actually thia time of writing, Bitcoin is at the base of $13,000 so $2,000 difference is really more then enough to declare the prediction to be true. What do you think?

I am also predicted the same figure early 3rd quarter of the year but that time Bitcoin's price is $4,000 and that's insane prediction of a 6 month term.

Because some countries are thinking this Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency will sabotage their local currency so they don't let their Citizens involve with Crypto-Currencies.
They're just protecting their sovereign money from economy sabotage if possible.

3rd quarter this year Bitcoin was predicted reaching $10,000 before 2018 but on the 3rd week of November it has already reached the prediction.
Now, someone has predicted that Bitcoin will reach $15,000 before 2018 but a day before December - Bitcoin already marching $13,000 as of this writing.
Do you believe that Bitcoin will reach more than $15,000 before 2018?
What are your thoughts?

Absolutely yes, as of this writing, Bitcoin fires back into $13,000 peak. This is really insane increase when it will increase forever, a thousand dollars a day is insane.
