DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!???
Another serving of doom coming for you in a minute good Sir. Wrong order! we ordered the full on DOOOOOOOOOOOOM for the entire table.... not breadsticks. You just cannot get the staff these days. This is not shnappy (eats a breadstick) Not shnappy at all. What's with the doom orders? I am just waiting for the staff to do their job, to live up to their many many promises, to deliver on what they promised in a timely and shnappy fashion. Plus it will make my day, my year in fact. My patience is growing thin. I just wish they would get on with it and drop it.... drop it like they dropped Fat Man. I can't tell whether you're short, or bear baiting, is all. Not short. But I will be very very happy if the staff can sort their shit out, and make good on their promises and spike that shit down. Make my day/year.

Even at replacing 1% of Gold, it'd be 70bn marketcap. And chances of that are severely over 5%. Actually it's a pretty good bet that it'll happen, but people in countries with hard currencies cannot really understand why that will be.
For example, having the 'security' of USD or EUR (=being American or European), you tend to see BTC as irrelevant, while if your national currency is junk, you value BTC just as you would value hard-to-find-assets like gold and hard currencies. It's a concept that is very elusive to western minds / developed countries.
Even the apparent "stability" and boredom that makes traders cringe for the 250$ mark, may be a +20% gain for someone living in a country where their national currency is on a declining curve during the last months.
Except that, to someone who has no ideological motivations and merely looks at the price charts, BTC looks worse than the Argentinean peso or Russian rubles. No one will consider BTC an option to escape inflation until those crazy sudden swings stop and the price remains stable for a year. As for replacing gold: with a 30% loss over the last few years, gold does not look like the solid refuge that it once was. Still, it has a fairly high rock-bottom price, maybe 100-200 $/ounce, due to its assured continuing demand for jewelry and industrial use, as well as his historical glamour. So, the price of gold is unlikely to drop by another 50% in the next few years, and any further drop will be gradual enough for individuals to take their money out before losing too much. In contrast, bitcoin does not have such floor. Even the 5 $/BTC estimated for e-payment usage depends on it continuing to to be the main cryptocurrency for that use, which is not at all certain. Bircoin price drops have been sudden and totally unpredictable, so investors would probably have to bear higher losses when trying to run away from them. Anyway, for everyone who has heard of bitcoin and still has money to invest, the expected value is now less than 245 $/BTC. They obviously think that the chances for Buterin's scenario are less than 1% (even if they don't make that estimation explicilt or conscious). Everything in the world will always stay exactly as it is now....

@Empowering
No DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM?
No ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif) I am hungry and ratty. Not shnappy. ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif) That's odd. Everybody seemed so convinced. Isn't that odd? /S I still have hope that the staff will keep their promise. Otherwise bad reviews on tripadvisor

This. no point blocking people that actually add something.
Also, Norway, you can copy and paste the whole list in profile->ignore
These vast ignore lists just identify the narcissistic fools that populate this forum. If you exclude all opinion you don't agree with, for reasons you cant explain or understand, then you are no longer having a "discussion" but merely partaking in a circle jerk. Meh, the majority of people on those lists, it is not we do not agree with them, it is that they are troll assholes that do jack but bleat on like mentals. ps and half of them are just one person or group, sockmuppets

also, this story about feds stealing bitcoins shows the weakness of bitcoin.
yes, bitcoin is secure and everything, but what use of no-middle-man transactions when there is high probability that the other side will fuck you, because irreversibility.
if you cant trust a government agent nor a drug dealer...why use it at all?
