Won't be long before they're paying Lockheed Martin in bitcoin, just you wait ...
They will have to buy them on the market first. When the U.S. goes bankrupt, they are going to regret having sold enough bitcoin to pay off the national debt, for a present value similar to filling up one SR-71's fuel tank. They'd just be like: "fuck it, let's take those 144k from Ulbricht already". |

usually someone should pop up with a graph and a TA now, what happened?  Everybody busy buying. |

Wishful thinking at its worst. The SR bust took coins off the market, this movement returns the same amount. It's exactly the opposite effect. That's why the price rebounded in October: some smart people noticed the bust would increase the value of the floating bitcoins. We are not seeing a rebound now. Yes, you're probably right, it's way too different a type of event. However I don't understand how this is bearish news at all. It's not like the buyers of those coins will turn around and dump them on the market? Is it just because the demand will be expected to decrease? Did some entities cancel their "coin buying subscriptions" at bitstamp because he decided to buy some of the sr coins and now the selling from bitpay et al is stronger on stamp with that demand gone? |

Big news. Definitely explains the drop. No, it doesn't Your right. It totally doesnt explain the lack of buyers AT ALL. Because all of these guys with the money to move the market had no idea this was coming. Billionaires are getting a chance to buy a large portion of a mindblowing technology for a great price. You seriously think people will sell their fucking coins just so some rich fuck, that they don't even know, can get em even more cheaper?? People mainly sell coins because others sell coins (panic) or because they are forced (margin call they can't meet). |

The auction of Silk Road coins will be the black swan event that ignites the next rocket to new ATH
Exactly, like the Silk Road bust ignited the last one. |

I could call Last 6 days a flat water.
Average Trade volume within that period seems to be similar to May1-May19.
I have a feeling we should be making leg up to 800 soon.
But who could tell when the storm begins?
Yes. And I can't emphasize enough how much that feels like September 2013, when we had to endure weeks and weeks of low price action and volume seemed to fade off into the depths of nothingness. Yet, out of nowhere, a sudden burst of green showed up in mid October, the volume ever increasing. When this will happen is hard to know. We could go sideways for another month in the worst case, or a few more days in the best. Yet the leg to 800 will surely come at some point. Out of nowhere? I attribute the October '13 runup to increased confidence after the SR bust.Maybe we should bust SR2? oh man, feds are auctioning off the silkroad coins.. Wouldn't this be too funny if this turned out the same way as the SR bust, subsequent "little fast crash" and rocket afterwards back in '13? |

Ich hab früher immer "Schwarzgeld" verwendet bei Überweisungen an Freunde. Das lass ich seit einiger Zeit auch lieber bleiben. Manche Leute haben einfach keinen Humor. |

what I'm interested in... Does the private key also degrade?
I never opened a casascius coin, and all the coins I own are from 2013, so I'm not panicking. BUt I can imagine the private key could become unreadable. Does anybody know how it is actually stored?
Interesting question, I would not be surprised if the code is unreadable when your great grand kids try to redeem the funds next century. But on the other hand, maybe we will never find out - who want to redeem a year 2013 Casacius in year 2100 just for the experiment, the coin could be worth millions (not talking about bitcoin price, but as an artifact). (On the other hands "milions" of what? - also possible that dollars will not exist at that time...)
Personally I am a great fan of the silver Casacius, because not only do they carry a bitcoin value but also the value of silver. millions of BTC? I have a silver one that I would probably never sell or redeem (unless 1 BTC is 100000 USD and they offer me 10 BTC for the coin ) I have a silver one that will always be worth 10BTC+, because 10 is it's denomination . It would hurt to have to redeem it, though, and I doubt it will be necessary. At the time I acquired it, the silver and BTC values were roughly equal, btw. When I first started investigating BTC (when BTC was around 12 USD, december 2012) I landed on the casascius website. I was a silver bug so no surprises there... I saw the 1oz 10 BTC coin and calculated that it had 50 USD premium (or something like that). Decided not buy buy one LOL. I didn't own BTC (only faucet dust) so this possible purchase could have me incentivised me to buy some actual BTC, but it didn't happen. Then my exams came, and when I checked the price of 1 BTC again after the exams, it was >35 USD  Still very happy I managed to buy some BTC below 100 USD. And I am happy I have a silver casascius 1 BTC now  But I will never forget my strupid decision to NOT buy the 10 BTC coin... Well, I think most people have these stories of not getting into Bitcoin on first sight... I actually mined for 2 days in Mai 2010 with my laptop. It just got hot and not even BTC 0.01 would show up in my wallet... so I figured Bitcoin was crap and let it be. Damn. On the other hand: had I gotten into it back then, I might've sold everying on the crazy bubble to $0.4 ;-). Probably it was all good the way it went. |

Perfect name for this kind of FUD. , but you have to admit this is a possibility. I attribute low likelyhood to it, but in fact I probably wouldn't say no to buying a few bitcoins around $266-$300 (depending on the level of panic then and how big my hope would be for price to crash even below the $266 old ath, I might wait a little longer, though). Ah well, the dreams of a bear. However, also some sinister-sounding analysts warn of the possibility of bitcoin returning to a less inclined uptrend channel: BITCOIN - Could it confound the BULLS?I'm remaining bullheadedly in the ultra-bull-camp, though. $3-7k soon HDL! |

There's a little circular piece of paper (there's a fitting sink in the brass coin for it to make the surface remain even). The private key is inkjetted on that piece of paper, afaik. I have not the slightest fear it will degrade for the next 50 years, but cannot support this opinion with any facts. |

If one wanted to avoid the expense and risk of ANACS, could one shrink rap a pile of these and successfully prevent oxidation that way? Or even a simple zip lock bag?
Or just keep them in the vaccuumed roll of 50 they received them in, for those who have been that smart (not me, unfortunately, but I know of someone who has 2 rolls of 50 in original packaging) Edit: I keep mine in ziploc-bags. Not sure wether that will prevent oxidation, though. More important is not to touch them (without gloves), I think. |

Maybe we should bust SR2? Indeed. When I saw the recovery, I became very bullish. In those days, bitcoin was not really mainstream yet. Anything could happen. People thought that SR was needed to create a large demand for BTC. In 24-48 hours BTC was back to the previous level! I immedialty told everyone to BUY BUY BUY at that moment  edit: I miss the feeling of the start of a rally The start of a rally is more fun than the rally itself, in my opinion... Those days were so exciting So true. I really have no idea wether or when we will have that pleasure again. That just adds to the excitiment, should it really happen, of course. |

So, on the assumption there is a spectacular breakout in 2014 and >1 yr. hodlers on the SSS plan get to divest a small percentage, which assets would people here recommend to park the fiat in?
good land and real estate maybe? |
