doesn't it seem like someone or a group of people is trying to support bitcoin at around 210-230? Everytime bitcoin drops (this year), it bounces back up to the 220 range pretty quickly...

Is it possible to join this campaign WITHOUT registering on bit-x (with a phone number)?
Bit-X honestly seems interesting, I'd register for it, but currently I don't have a cell phone (mine got stolen, too lazy to get a new one) and even when I get a new one, I am not so comfortable using it to register.

Playing with the "house's money" is a bad mindset to be in.
It doesnt' matter what you paid for it, it's worth ~2.3 million now, that's how much you should think of it as.

It's amazing how someone makes a joke and everyone takes him seriously.

My point is also a good one, unlike yours. Mike is a friend of the state-paradigm. He will happily cooperate with anything any state asks him to, he has said as much in the past. Have fun using his coin.
Uh, no it isn't. It's amazing how you can think that because someone has different political views than you do, that they can be completely discredited. I don't know enough about XT or Mike Hearn to comment about either; but your argument is absolutely horrible. You're wrong. If Mike didn't let his political views influence his software development, there wouldn't be a problem. I'm not against XT because I disapprove of Mike Hearns favourite colour, it's because I disapprove of him using bitcoin to promote his political views. Furthermore, the origianl point of the bitcoin project was to create an open access monetary system that is apolitical. Please, I'm begging you all, think through your arguments before you start typing because I really don't see why I should have to do all your thinking for you It's ironic, when it's clear that you are not doing any thinking yourself. The heart of your argument is exerting libertarian ideals into bitcoin. And you're just trying to cover that up with pathetic ad hominem attacks. |

Can we be sure that Google are not "too big to discredit"? Could Bitcoin endorsement really damage them that much?
I'm not so sure it's a matter of "too big to discredit", more just a buisiness decision, it might not make business sense to accept bitcoin for anything right now. What, like their almost certainly loss-making, free-at-point-of-use video streaming service? That sort of business case? You mean youtube, one of the most profitable businesses ever made? |

I don't understand, why selling pre-fork coins now? I just bought some cheap coins. Even there is a fork in near future, I would reserve the right to sell the coins on the chain that I don't like
At that time if you are in wrong fork, your coins may disappear. That is the main reason for panic selling. Where did you get that information? How is that possible? doesn't matter if it's true or not, as long as people think that, they will dump |

Is anyone really pathetic enough to be "interested in bitcoin" for like 10 dollars a week? Seriously? That sounds really lame.
My sign campaign ended last week, but I'm still here, and my sig is still here (too lazy to remove it).
But if you were to change your question to being in it for the money, I would say yes. I'm not a libertarian, I fundamentally don't care if bitcoin succeeds or not. But I hope that I could make a good return from it succeeding, therefore I support it.

Doesn't wisdom of the crowd add up all the results and then get the average guess, instead of the most popular guess?
So adding up all the results I am getting: 18,147,032
Divide 152 votes
= $119,388.36
That can't be right... or can it?
I think this particular crowd might just be the slightest bit biased. Unless they've all personally pledged to pay $100,000 for 0.85 or so BTC in which case I applaud them. If you remove the bottom 25% and top 25% and average the middle 50%, or if you take a median, I think it could be pretty accurate. |

california is just too expensive to live.
the rent cost for a average area is $1,300- almost 2,000 depending on how many rooms. The living expense also is not the same, some people actually are forced to go to soup kitchens to pick up extra food.
Since they dont entirely qualify for ebt cards aka food stamps.
so I think living in California wouldn't be easy for all who have to rent out unless they already own a house there so they could ease up a bit regarding the $1,300- almost 2,000 you mentioned It soo expensive, in Indonesia you can rent a room, with only $ 400 per year, it was very cheap are you serious? Dude, do you know if i could move to indonesia?  Here in philippines you can rent a room with only 0.1 btc per month, and its only 1.2btc per year, so cheap than indonesia so you can went here and rent a room. LOL what kind of room we are talking about? those room with cockroaches and all sort of unimaginable animal inside it, without hot water and so on? and anyway i should also love the place first of all before even bothering at looking at the price...substantially one can live with $500 per month(with renting or akin stuff) if he is alone and does not expect too much from his life Such a room is at least $400 dollars per month here in Canada, Amph. And you're looking at at least $10/day for food if you don't eat a lot and eat cheap stuff. So that's at least $700/month, assuming you don't buy shampoo, toilet paper, clothing and stuff like that. |

To 2020 year bitcoin will not be the main coin and the price will be very low. In the year 2018 a new coin, which will be a symbiosis of a few coins.
bitcoin COULD possibly be overtaken in a few decades, but it won't happen that quickly. The world needs to first come to accept cryptocurrencies as a legitimate form of money, not a scam or pyramid scheme or internet play money. The average people need to believe that there is real value in cryptocurrencies, and that it is safe to use. Only then, can other cryptocurrencies thrive. Before then, if people dont' even trust bitcoin, they're definitely not going to use some new coin. They could trust a currency like Monero that is totally untraceable and unlinkable. the vast majority of people don't care about that. it'll only be within a very small niche. |

I'm beginning to change my mind on this one. If I get paid as a programmer in cheque, I am subject to taxes, which isn't good for me since I'm on disability. If I get paid in bitcoin it would not be taxable income. Considering bitcoin is the way of the future, now is the time to get in.
actually bitcoin is taxable income in most places. |

2.1 BTC has always seemed like a fair amount to me in regards to this question. 2.1 BTC makes you one in a million, which could be potentially huge if/when mass adoption occurs. For everyone who doesn't have it, aim for 2.1 BTC  one in ten mil. well actually, its about 1 in 700 :p |

What was ethereums value when it was crowd sold/IPO whatever you call it?
It started at 2000 and went to 1337 eth/btc on a sliding scale depending on when you bought. hmm.... so at $0.7 each they're still actually more expensive than they first were... |

hard to believe that one exchange in one state can affect bitcoin's price by that much.

hmmm bitcoin value is going down, but it doesn't seem to be because of ethereum, as it is going down even faster.
