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.
3342  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How are block sizes determined? on: July 22, 2015, 09:21:19 AM
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.
3343  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin as a national currency? on: July 21, 2015, 10:54:36 PM
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.
3344  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC-E crash to $150! on: July 21, 2015, 10:50:44 PM
When I saw it the first time, I was afraid if there was a bug in the blockchain. Shocked

But it was just Mr. 102.  Wink

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 $200  Grin
So, you just made 70$ 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.
3345  Economy / Speculation / Re: GOLD to 200-400 (prediction) on: July 21, 2015, 10:44:07 PM
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.
3346  Economy / Speculation / Re: How much do you think 1 Bitcoin will be worth in 2020? on: July 21, 2015, 10:40:36 PM
if mainstream adoption is getting stronger by that time, i.would say around $4000. don't think it will go much higher than that.
3347  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC confirmation times suitable for payments scenario? on: July 21, 2015, 08:52:56 AM
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.
3348  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Which Block Explorer do you use ? on: July 21, 2015, 04:01:45 AM
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.
3349  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Best wallet for cold storage on: July 21, 2015, 03:53:25 AM
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.
3350  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: btc-e.com is down? on: July 20, 2015, 04:26:25 PM
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.
3351  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2015-07-20]BITCOIN SPIES - Are Bitcoin Faucets Worth It? on: July 20, 2015, 04:20:20 PM
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.
3352  Economy / Economics / Re: Why You Should Never Sell Your Bitcoins Ever on: July 20, 2015, 09:31:30 AM
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 Sad

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.
3353  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Attention: BTC-E Customers With Open Orders BEFORE the Crash... on: July 20, 2015, 09:24:37 AM
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.
3354  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin to $1000 on July 2016 on: July 20, 2015, 09:19:41 AM
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-$450 that can be considered a great achievement.
3355  Economy / Speculation / Re: Outside money will only come when we make a new ATH on: July 20, 2015, 09:14:37 AM
new ath will make it to the news, it will then attract very short term investors who only see dollar signs. not sure if that's the right thing to wait for. there are already way too many of them.
3356  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it a double top? on: July 19, 2015, 04:01:29 PM
Yeah well best case scenario that its just a small bear trap resulted from profit taking from 300$+, 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.
3357  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: July 19, 2015, 03:58:56 PM
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.
3358  Economy / Speculation / Re: Direction is NNE - MOON TIME on: July 19, 2015, 10:00:33 AM
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.
3359  Other / Meta / Re: Why so secure on a forum? on: July 19, 2015, 09:54:36 AM
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.
3360  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC not going below $240-$250 - Greece going to do a silent exit Monday.. on: July 19, 2015, 04:45:22 AM
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.
