from a financial point of view for sure. exchanges around the world look what happens in the usa in order to decide which direction to go. if american exchanges don't move, exchanges elsewhere won't move either.

i think it is purely based on the fee that is included in the transactions. transactions with the highest fees get included first, possibly causing "less important" transactions to wait for the next block.

don't think any country will ever have bitcoin as main currency. something that they can't control will not be allowed. however, they might create their own crypto currency at some point. it's all about control.

When I saw it the first time, I was afraid if there was a bug in the blockchain. But it was just Mr. 102. this once again shows that it pays off to place low buy orders. it's the second time btc-e had an insane flash crash. it wasn't much but i managed to buy 1 btc at $200 So, you just made 70$ profit. How much did you wait for it? sorry, just noticed your reply. i always place low buy orders with fiat in my account that i don't plan to use any time soon, hoping a flash crash will happen. and it did. btc-e is perfect for that. a 3000-5000 btc dump can make the price go down 50% quite easily there.

it quite looks like trolling, there is no way the gold price will go down that much. at this point the current price doesn't look that bad, it might go down a bit, but surely not that much.

if mainstream adoption is getting stronger by that time, i.would say around $4000. don't think it will go much higher than that.

there are shops, bars and restaurants who accept your bitcoin payment without a single confirmation. but that's probably up to €50. not sure if they also accept it without confirmations above that amount.

i find myself using blockr.io more than blockchain.info. it has way less errors and the ui looks very clean. blockchain.info needs to work on their bugs that they have had for a very long time.

bitcoin core does the job. i use it to store my coins that i want to hold for a long time. wallet.dat file with a secure password storen on several usb drives.
|
|
|
it is still not working unfortunately. this is taking quite a long time. i hope btc-e will be back asap as i want to make a deposit.

for most people it's not worth it. but for people who are living in third world countries these faucets are a great way of earning some bits.

It would be nice if everyone took Bitcoin as a normal currency, not just Bitcoin to Dollar and Dollar to Bitcoin. When I'm doing some stuff for people here, like coding or whatever I just say "Give me 0.2 BTC", I don't care about price when doing this. But this won't never happen, sadly they simply see 0.2btc as $58 and not 0.2btc as 0.2btc, you can't blame people for that. if they really start to appreciate bitcoin, then they will start seeing bitcoin differently.

i had an open order at $200 and it got filled like it would normally. no problems here. we don't know what happened but i don't think something fishy is going on.

Today is 273,now is 273 So if the bitcoin get again at 300 is good It will be more in august.
well, the more we are heading towards the block halving in 2016 the higher the price will be. but i don't think it will go over $500. if we're around $350-$450 that can be considered a great achievement.

new ath will make it to the news, it will then attract very short term investors who only see dollar signs. not sure if that's the right thing to wait for. there are already way too many of them.

Yeah well best case scenario that its just a small bear trap resulted from profit taking from 300$+, but a very good chance that it was just a train being totally shut down, and the reality will just settle in once again @230$ or so.
At least there is finally some kind of movement happening, the whole year so far being as boring as it could've been.
people say they like stability in the price, but when it happens to be somewhat "stable" people get bored and want to get the volatility back.

Well if you're a risk taker then you should go invest your money but if you're conservative enough to think for the better future, I suggest you save it. But probably the best thing to do is to invest it in something that is not as shaky as bitcoin's price. Although bitcoin can be a good investment but I don't suggest that you'd go invest your whole treasure in it.
the simple saving as leaving your money under pillow on in a bank(with an awful interest) is not good and deleterious, if i have saved 1k euro in the past when euro was born, now i have the same 1k euro, but those money cannot buy the same thing, they will lose a great % of purchase power resulting in a big loss, and the interests of the bank can't overcome this interest rate of banks can't overcome it, but it is still the best option for people who don't want to invest. there simply isn't a better option. but these people will indeed end up with less purchasing power.

which means you bought plenty of coins, right? if we maintain the $300 level for some time, i believe we can advance further. that alone is already a more than difficult challenge.

people are never satisfied. if this forum is trying to make sure everything is secure, people complain that it is over the top. if the forum gets hacked, people then complain about the forum lacking security. be happy that the forum is as it is.

i also think bitcoin won't go below $250 level, but it's not very likely to see geece exit on monday. it is wat a lot people here are hoping for, but it's not going to happen, for now.
