Initially, Amagi Metals had joined the Bitcoin community with little fanfare. When four-year-old company first started accepting payments in Bitcoin in December 2012, it made no attempt to advertise the fact; indeed, the first time that the company received any significant attention from the Bitcoin community at all was when a visitor stumbled upon the site and created a Reddit forum thread in January. Even after that, for the first three months the Bitcoin option saw little usage, and after the forum thread came and went most of the Bitcoin world did not know that the company even existed.

Note: The price is still low due to panic sale as mt.gox experiences overloading issue. Time to buy before price catching up again at $200+

elastic computing service might be too expensive for mt.gox?

The crash comes from our beloved mt.gox

Our exchange betrayed our trust

I placed a sell order when the price is 200 (market price), the order is pending and traded at 155. Fu*K mtgox lag

I am sure mtgox earning a decent amount of money since the bitcoin price rise. They should spend them all to upgrade the infrastructure and trading platform to prevent any problem. Bitcoin trades 24/7 and requires a high end reliable system. I was very disappointed with the service yesterday

Crazy market and bad mt.gox exchange made me miss my chance of taking profit yesterday

I have been waiting for 3 weeks for verification Cannot withdraw my money yet. Any alternative exchange that you can recommend?

Read this. It covers all information and questions.

The price has surpassed $200 and there is no sign of stopping. The trend attracts large amount of amateur and professional investors and the daily trading volume exceeds 100 000 BTC on mt.gox exchange.

Bitcoin is being spreaded all over big financial newspapers. I think $100 per 1 BTC and evern $200 per 1 BTC can be historical

lol every week we see new peak and the price continues to rise with no limit.

2 people have paid for 1 bitcoin satoshi (0.00000001 BTC) for £20 ($30) and £50 ($75) so far.

Can anyone confirm this is not scam? This is a UK company I think.

As a VC, my interest in the Bitcoin ecosystem is not ideological but mercenary. I see the opportunity for Bitcoin to disrupt multi-billion-dollar markets, but in doing so also create new big markets. There are three key markets in Bitcoin:

Wallet. Holding your Bitcoins for you, serving some of the checking account functions of a bank.

Exchange. Converting from USD to Bitcoins and back.

Payments. Helping merchants accept Bitcoins for their transactions.

As a rule of thumb, VCs like to see billion-dollar markets to get excited. How can each of these markets get to be a billion dollars in size?

We need more online business to accept bitcoin as payment. This will make bitcoin stronger as a currency. Unlike dot-com boom and tulip mania which fragile, bitcoin has a better future.
