War can actually result in bitcoin supply coming down as well, with a lot of private keys getting lost...
Agreed. Who would think about their coins if their families are being slaughtered. And their wallets gets rocketed. I wonder how many wallets wil gets lost because of people dieing from Ebola.

... but I am almost certain that we should start learning Chinese For me it's too late, but I seriously consider it for my children. There is no reason why Chinese could not be the next dominant language around the world. Well,.. now I think of it, all those characters are not really convenient and easy to learn. So you must put lots of effort for your children in first years to expand their painting and drawing since Chinese letters are drawings.

It is really interesting to see how much influence Bitcoin will have on this. Altho days of USD as world reserve currency are already counted down, Bitcoin can decrease them drastically. It can all happen just in a decade.
I would wait to see at least 1 country officially accept Bitcoin. That would mean a real new threat to USD. What do you understand as accept BTC. To totally ditch their own currency? and just depend on BTC? Or just not make any fuss of it and accept Bitcoin as any other foreghin currency? I think there are many countries that already did or will soon treat Bitcoin as was my second option. I think it will take lots of time until this happen. I think every country will still push forward their own currency as much as they can. You see on this forum in altcoin sections. Everyone pushes their own altcoin, no matter how good it is. But all of them accept other altcoins.

I could be completely wrong but from observation, it seemed as though BTC/USD increased to $1,000 each last year because most of the speculators (particularly the newest speculators) hoped that people would develop more and greater services which would be centred around bitcoin. Which has happened but not quick enough then most had hoped and this is completely due to Government intervention, particularly China who is trying to eliminate it completely and the US Government would love to do the same thing but instead they will keep crippling the unregulated financial services offered in bitcoin. Now, I might be wrong but I believe that the fact that these asset exchanges and lack of banking services is a major contributor to why the price isn't higher than it is now. If everyone believed they could get huge returns quite easily using bitcoin then of course the price would be back to where it was beforehand. If people were so scared about the volatility then they would just hedge.
The increase in price last year was due to market manipulation by bots. The bots were purchasing on behalf of speculators with a lot of money. It is not a conspiracy. Zoznoz is likely correct to say that speculators were trying to profit from quick and massive bitcoin adoption but the chinese government was able to stem this in their country. I would anticipate them easing off these bans/regulations over the long term as they become more of a free market economy Is there any evidence on the use of bots? You can easily detect bot on exchange. just add and remove one offer and you wil see that one at some designated % of what you placed will immediately appear on market. Bots dont manipulate market, they just make you really hard to sell bitcoins for fiat or sell fiat for bitcoins, but force you to buy them and pay more and get less. Bots actually make exchanges more stable, since there si more BTC on offer and more fiat on offer.

I see this as that lots will matter then this crisis start. If it wil start next year, will not be so much influence if it will start in 5 years time, may influence Bitcoin greatly.

This thread is very good But, are there are any documentary for the people never know bitcoin ?
The rise and rise of bitcoin is a good one for people at any level. Yes it is, but most people that uses this forum, know all what is in there already. But movies are to burst your memories, so yes is for all.

SEE.. I DELETED MY POST! (within less than 3 minutes) and yet the OP still quote me. i was hesitant after i did my own searching, but the OP's anxiety to respond made it irresistible for me to believe it's a scam.
i may be wrong but it still feels weird due to op's behavior.
So maybe next time you will be more careful. Hopefully.

Ok, I have been following Btc since around xmas when it was big news and the price shot up. I haven't invested in it as the price keeps falling and have only brought enough to buy a few bits and pieces.
Now if you look at any of the price graphs you will see that it goes from nothing to silly money for no apparent reason, and then seems to have been in gradual decline since then. Every time it does go up, it never goes above the previous low. It has dipped below $300 recently and I would say will be heading towards $200 in another month. Was the high point just a blip?
All this is despite all the publicity it has had since xmas and all the work that is currently going on in the community. As no one is mining anymore, does it matter if Expedia or Overstock accept Btc? Unless you are paid in Btc, you would still have to pay a % to acquire it.
My question to you is, what is your exit strategy? If you invested in the last nine months, can you afford to sell up? Are people still investing despite the downward trend?
I will sell t at least half of value i did buy them.
