I'm really not sure if it is a pump this time.
I suspect it more to be a reaction on the global acceptance of more and more companies.
Of course, the last two weeks price went extremly high, and smaller drops can not be avoided.
Simply because some people want to withdrawl a bit of their profit.
But the huge crash some expect, I do not see it.

From the way I read it, dad has already made up his mind.
I don't think there is much you can do about that.
But you can explain to him, that your money is yours, and you can use it the way you think it's best.
Maybe you even have bitcoin as an investment. Adults like the word 'investment' for some reason.
He might accept that you use your money as investment.

My region is still developing area, at least when it comes to things concerning crypto currencies.
But recently I saw a group of teenagers, and one of them had a bitcoin sticker on his smartphone.
It really seems like parts of the new generation grow up using bitcoin, and that is a very promising developement!

I somehow like it that bitcoins can be burned.
Because the total number of bitcoins is fixed, every burned bitcoin increases the worth of the rest of the bitcoins.
Maybe not now, but with time this is going to have a notable effect to the availability of bitcoin.

To me the faucet worked fine.
I'm not sure about this url shortener, but well, at least there are no antibots I had to click.
On captcha had to be solved, that's it.
200 sat minimum to faucetsystems is good as well.
Thanks!

I'm relatively sure that a ban of btc will not come in any country. Simply because every government understands that this is technically not possible.
What I can imagine are high taxes on buying or selling bitcoins.
That is something that lies within the powers a government has, and what can actually be reached.
If you put those taxes high enough, you can navigate the use of bitcoin in a country. I think that would be better than banning bitcoins, for all sides.

Fear shows a person that he is in a situation where he does not feel comfortable.
When fear comes up with trading, the reason for that will probably be a combination of having too much money involved, and too few experience in trading.
I would say it's best to start small. Small money, not too much tradings. And always keep in mined that not everything in trading can be predictet.

Almost all the predictions I have read in the last time point to a raise in bitcoin price next year.
I think that whales would not be whales if they didn't konw the right time to buy, or to sell.
So if none of them is selling, it's another sign for me that we can expect 2017 to be a good year for bitcoin!

I think its incredible that so few people use bitcoin! Imagine the potential there is!!
Billions of possible bitcoin users are out there. Each one of them thinking about ways to earn more money, or invest the money they have in a mor profitable way!
And bitcoin can provide a simple solution for that.
I have no idea how high the price for one bitcoin will get some day, but I can imagine it will be extraordinary!
But I would wish for a solid growth! No bubble building!

Bitcoin is limited to 21 millions while 16 millions are already mined.
I don't know if eth is limited (I think it's not), and there are already 87 millions mined in way less time than bitcoin.
So comparing those two in a matter of price per coin does not work.
It's more the market capitalization that count's I think. And here leads bitoin as well with a big big advance!

What I like best at the moment is the savings part of bitcoin.
Every time I buy coins and make a payment with it, that what I bought too much goes into my savings wallet.
And due to the increase of price this amount is growing.
The best part: Nobody else than me knows about it!

To me everything worked fine with this faucet.
I had to solve two captchas and after that three antibots had to be clicked.
I'm not really a big fan of this kind of antibot because recognizing the differences between the letters and putting them in the right order is always time consuming.
Payment came on faucethub as promised.
Thank you!

Ransomware is a software that encrypts your hard drive and every other attached storage device.
In order to get access to your data again, the software asks you to pay a certain amount (usually in bitcoin).
After that you get a key that decrypts your drives again.
At least that is what the software tells you. If you really get it, I would doubt that.

I think that the altcoins are important to keep the traders busy.
It does not really matter what altcoin there is in my opinion. They all get created, traded against bitcoin for a while and disappear then slownly again.
And during the time they are traded, they create demand for bitcoin. And every demand for bitcoin is a good thing.

I would say as well that we will hit that point during the first half of 2017.
Always under the assumption that nothing unexpected happens in the crypto world.
The trend is clearly pointing upwards, the mass of people who have not come in contact with bitcoin yet is immense, so big chances of growth.
And there is no possible competition for bitcoin in sight.
All that leads me to the conclusion of a long and steady growth of bitcoin price.

I don't think that is going to happen.
That is a risk the european governments and the EZB will not take, despite everything they say in advance.
Letting those banks crash would be the same as ending the Euro, and everybody knows that.
And that is why the EZB pumps every month 80 billions into the market to buy bad credits.
If that won't help they will take other measures, but they will not let those banks fall.

To me the faucet worked really fine.
The design is simple and clear, reminds me of one of the old faucetbox scripts.
There is just one captcha to solve, no antibot or anything like that.
Payment goes to a faucethub address as promised.
The timer to click the "get" button is a little long. But with everything else I am pleased.

I would say that bitcoin is an opportunity.
What people do with it, that's up to them. Compared to cash money it's more complicated and technical to handle.
So I think the younger generatiuon will have it easier there.
I really hope that they will use it, not only to transfer money, but to create something with it. And then it will be their success!

My wife always opens the mail first, that includes the credit cards bills.
I could not make a single purchase online without her knowing what it was.
Searching a way to get the power over my money back, or at least a small fraction of it, I found bitcoin!
It's perfect, since she has no interest in technical stuff.
When I buy a few coins now, I just have to tell her its for something cryptic, then she roles her eyes and switches into the not-interested-mode.
I'm so happy!!!

I don't understand any of this either anymore.
ETH up to 12, then down to 6 dollar, now rcovering to about 8.5 Dollars.
Maybe there were  just (too) many forks and rumors and this is all psychology.
I have never understood psychology.
