sebenernya secara tidak langsung altcoin itu membantu bitcoin dalam "penggunaanya" dan dalam volume, coba agan ceck lagi volume bitcoin di marketcap pasti ada pengaruhnya
soalny kebanyakan altcoin di pair sama bitcoin

The recent price action was quite unexpected. Despite all signs pointing to an upcoming crash post the black friday hype, the honey badger didn’t sleep
However, today the honey badger finally fell asleep as the unwinding of the week long rally up to a high of $383 came to an end. Earlier this month, after the bull run to $500, bitcoin settled at $380 for a week. A painful drop came next which brought the price down over 20%. As if the traders didn’t have enough action, a few bull traps came along. Finally, a stable rally began on November 25th, which as expected, exhibited the most trading volume on black friday. It all came to an end today as waves after waves of sells dominated the market.

Currently the price is looking to stabilize at a new area which looks like its going to be in the $355 range. Because we had some major volume right at the $350 area previously, we can deduce that it can serve as a good support zone for the possibly upcoming Christmas / New Years shopping hype.

Many agree that the long term market is bullish and as the halving is approaching in march the price should slowly climb. As DoUBitcoin describes on r/BitcoinMarkets:

Because we are in a longer term bull market I would expect to see more strength in price retracements as we decline. The similarities to the April ’13 market movements are pretty clear even if the percentage movements are not as similar. If the model holds and we are at the beginning of a bull market, I would expect to see a retracement to the $365-$375 area before further downward movement. I still expect to bottom out somewhere around Christmas in the $335 – $300 range and then slowly continue the climb into the halving anticipation run near March.

The path to the moon is not that easy for bitcoin though, as the market will feel some downward pressure from uncertainty regarding the blocksize debate. It is unclear which BIP will come into effect if any, furthermore Bitcoin XT has been a cause for heated debate in the community which caused segregation as any discussion regarding it was banned on r/Bitcoin.

The 30-minute chart for Litecoin is showing that price has now closed underneath a significant pivot area. The $3.46 level held as support about three times during the last week of November. When the market plunged under $3.46 yesterday, this level turned into resistance. Price could not weasel its way back above $3.46, and the market plunged even lower. If the price manages to climb above $3.46 again, then that will be a clear indication that another bull run is about to start.



While the 30-minute chart is very bearish, the 4-hour chart is showing something very different. The $3.28 level – where the market found support today – is actually a major pivot zone that goes back to the start of November. This area was used as support on two occasions last month, and another four times as resistance towards the middle of November. It is quite obvious why the market found support again when it hit $3.28. Currently, there are no signals as to which way the market is leaning, but a break underneath $3.28 will be a big win for short interests.

mantep lah buy order ane kenak di rate 4.80x.xxx 
udah sell di 4.98x.xxx smlm dan tadi buy back di rate 4.93x.xxx

sering-sering kayak gini biar cepet soge 

sebenernya ane ingin lebih dari itu 
tapi seharusnya kita melihat bitcoin tidak hanya dari segi harga tapi lebih ke segi implementasi dalam kehidaupan sehari-hari

di 2016 akan banyak merchand yang support bitcoin dan banyak start up baru yang dpat modal dari bitcoin

ya setidaknya banyak tempat ngopi yang support bitcoin pasti ane seneng   

Ethereum entered a bear market on the 24th of November, but the technical indicators are starting to look up. The 0.00235 area, which has played a key role since the 26th, has now turned into a major pivot zone. This level acted as support about three times during November, and once price slipped underneath it, 0.00235 then acted as resistance. Yesterday, price made its way above 0.00235 again, so this level is very likely to now act as support, which may set the stage for further price increases. A break underneath 0.00235 would signal a bear market continuation.



If the market uses 0.00235 as support and starts to trend higher from here, the next area of concern would be 0.0026. This pivot is fairly well established; once as support; three times as resistance. I wouldn’t be surprised if any future rallies encounter trouble at 0.0026.

In the last couple of weeks, bitcoin extortionists have begun acting out more. In fact, recent reports indicate that hackers have attacked three Greek banks for the third time, in a total of five days.

According to Greek police and the Greek Central Bank, it seems like the ransom demanded from each bank was of 20,000 bitcoin, which translates to roughly $7.2 million.

The group, which refers to itself by the name of Armada Collective, staged their first attacks last Thursday. At that moment in time, they warned the institutions that a full collapse of Greek bank websites would be imminent if the ransoms weren’t paid up.

Based on this, the initial attacks were structured in the form of DDOS hits, thus flooding the websites with too many requests, hence brining the websites down. When they did this, they managed to disrupt electronic transactions for all three banks for a period of time, but no customer information has been affected.

As the three banks refused to pay up, the hackers went ahead and attacked once again. Only this time, the banks had strengthened their defence, so thanks to this, no actual disruptions of service took place.

The banks have gotten in touch with the authorities, which are now investigating the case, and trying to find the hackers responsible for this.

Based on everything that has been outlined so far, what do you personally think about the recent spark in bitcoin ransom attacks? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section below.

It was only a matter of time until the US Securities and Exchange Commission filed official charged Bitcoin mining companies for fraudulent behavior. Both GAW Miners and ZenMiner have been officially indicted, as these two Bitcoin mining “companies” have been charged with conducting a Ponzi scheme to defraud investors.

GAW Miners and ZenMiner Officially Deemed Ponzis
The complaint by the SEC has been filed in federal court in Connecticut, and not only targets the two companies, but their founder Joshua Garza as well. Bitcoin community members from all over the world had been waiting in anticipation for this announcement, as many people lost digital currency when these two Ponzi schemes came around.

There are a few factors that determine the success or failure of new payment solutions. Otto Group launched their Yapital project in 2011 and was one of the frontrunners to explore the mobile payment industry. However, being among the first to venture into a new market is not always a guarantee for success.

Yapital offered some interesting features, such as using QR codes to let people make instore and online payments, similar to how Bitcoin works. Additionally, Yapital users could pay bills with their mobile phones, which sounded like a great concept at the time of launch. Unfortunately, neither of these features proved to be much of a success, despite the headstart.

Otto Group identified the culprit of Yapital’s failure in the form of a very competitive market – especially over the past 24 months-  and disappointing consumer take up. Mobile payment solutions will stand or fall depending on how many consumers actively use the application, and Yapital’s market share has always been fairly low.

But there was a positive side to Yapital too, as German retailers seemed keen on embracing the mobile payment solution. Come January 31, 2015, Yapital will be officially shut down as a mobile payment application, but it will stay active as an e-money institution for the b2b market.

“At the moment it is simply impossible to forecast business performance in this segment accurately – and above all, the development of the number of end-consumers. While we were already talking about the mobile-payment breakthrough three years ago, today studies indicate there are currently only 200,000 users in Germany.” – Yapital Executive Director Marc Berg commented.

Interchange regulations are making it difficult for any mobile payment solution to gain ground in Germany and beyond. This causes margins to fall for companies, and in the case of Yapital, it even lead to a reduction in workforce. Despite best efforts by the team, things just didn’t work out they way they could have.

Bitcoin Is A Favorable Solution
As these “hyped” mobile payment solutions are faced with the harsh reality ofn ot being as popular as everyone assumed, the weed will be culled from the chaff in the long run. Despite all of these changes and competitive strategies, Bitcoin trucks on, unencumbered by what companies are trying to achieve in the mobile payment space.

BlackBerry Exits Pakistan Over Privacy Demands – Blockchain Technology Can Help

Times are troubling for BlackBerry, as the once popular smartphone manufacturer looks to be pulling out of Pakistan next year. The reason behind this drastic decision is clear as day: the Pakistani government wants the manufacturer to install backdoors in their BlackBerry Enterprise Service emails and BBM chats. The war raging against technology and privacy is in full effect, at a time during which transparency and openness are needed.

BlackBerry Refuses Government Backdoors in Software

The relationship between BlackBerry and the Pakistani government has been uneasy ever since the company’s services were shut down in July of this year. Mobile phone operators in Pakistan were informed how BlackBerry would be deemed “illegal” if operation continue within Pakistani borders.

Whether or not this decision will be a big loss to BlackBerry remains to be seen. According to a report by The Verge, BlackBerry serves roughly 5,000 enterprise users in Pakistan. The company could have opted to continue their services in the country, but the decision to leave Pakistan altogether may have been for the best.

Today’s consumers are seeking methods to avoid human interaction during checkout processes and as a direct result, payment methods are constantly evolving. Whereas society used to rely on cash payments, most of the Western World has transitioned into card payments. But that won’t be the final evolutionary steps for payments, as mobile payments are looming on the horizon. Swatch has teamed with Visa to let consumers make payments with their watch.

Introducing The Swatch Pay-by-wrist Solution
Similar to how payments have evolved over the years, so have the watches we wear on our wrists. Back in the old days, one would check the time by using a pocket watch. By the 20th century, the wristwatch gained a lot of popularity and that trend was soon succeeded by smartwatches, which have yet to gain any major traction in the world.

As our watches became more advanced, it only makes sense to explore the boundaries of what these devices can be used for. Counting steps and calories is just the first wave of features smartwatches will bring to consumers worldwide. If it is up to Swatch, we will be using our wristwatches to make contactless payments soon.
