Still too soon to tell. What would happen if you wake up 1 day and see the price at 1$.

The funny thing is that 10 days ago every body was saying "damn the price jump too fast... a correction would be soooo healthy".
And now that we have our correction and a one week consolidation, people begin to doubt.

Yeah, that's how markets move  Wink

ps: please enlighten me about your sig. what is he talking about Huh??

He talks about SWIFT. And since he seams to be a pure management guy he does not understand that SWIFT may be able to transport account and money transfer information - but all that will not be necessary anymore with Bitcoin because Bitcoin can be transferred seamless without SWIFT more easily  Grin  Grin  Grin

lol, that´s what i thought. it is like the boss of u.s.postal service declaring "i would not see why we at the postal service could not send your emails printed out as letters"   Grin

1BTC? 1000$? For one day? [You didn't write anywhere how many days the event will take, so I assume it'll be one day]
In Poland I can live off that sum for three months. 1BTC is not a play-money for me.
Since I won't be a millionaire by 1000$, it's too big of a sum to loose in a single day. Count me out. My frugality says "not yet".

However if there will be another party at 10k$ priced at 0.2BTC, count me in!

I don't think you're looking at this the right way. You could set aside the 1 XBT for the ticket today. Your out-of-pocket expense is then about $202 or whatever the current price is*. This could be a once-in-a-lifetime rager experience. Taking part in the most memorable party ever for $202 seems like a reasonable value to me.

*I set my 2 XBT aside before the recent runup in price (2 'cause I'd bring a guest). You're right - it is not chump change, but I think it could end up being a significant value.


thx, i could not have stated that in a better way  Smiley

just relax everyone. they have a nice product. in order to make it safer, they need more time. on top of it, they need to sell. they come up with this nice little idea to push sales. instead of comparing them to bfl just be happy and order tomorrow, you end up with 3 trezors, two for you and one for...  grandma !  Grin

edit: the way i wrote it it may sound sarcastic. it´s not meant that way. why only own one ? tomorrow today is a good opportunity to get them cheap.

Vancouver just got one.  Surprised no one on this site is actually talking about it.

Do they have people using it? since BTC population is not really crowded yet like 0.001% of the world population only...

one month ago i started accepting btc in my shop. no one ever asked to pay with it. today 3 people showed up independently and asked about bitcoin. but...  they all wanted to buy bitcoin. Grin

No, Ripple is a scam.

Its not. You parrot that because you are afraid your Bitcoin investment would fail.
I'm not invested in Bitcoin, and I'll say this too. Ripple is a scam.

it´s a scam and the ripple worshippers getting really fanatic about it.  Kiss

Would be kinda funny, ironic, and maybe even uncomfortable, if in the next year or two the US went into another even bigger recession (maybe spurned by more debt fights and an actual default), and the price of BTC goes to $1,000 only because USD plummets by 25% to 50%. We would essentially be having a huge celebration because of a USD crash  Tongue

(not that I think USD will crash that much. All those tanks and aircraft carriers are still worth a lot)

it is more likely that other currencies crash against the dollar but still cause btc to go to $1000+ which essentially also means a dollar crash (technically this is already happening with USD to BTC)




all bitcoin rises vs the dollar were accompanied by rises vs other currencies as well. one could assume bitcoin did not rise, but all the currencies fell. i think that does not make sense. whenever bitcoin price rose in the past i could get more euros for my btc. when btc doubles i need only to use half the amount of btc than before to pay the rent of my appartment. the rent didn´t change, so it is much more likely bitcoin is rising vs all currencies as to say all currencies & my rent fell vs btc.

I am still optimistic! Maybe even more so now!  Grin

It's only likely going to be a lot slower than these first 4 years. You should prepare to be in it for the long haul. Expect not to buy an apartment with your investment in BTC in 2017. See it as a long term savings.

when deep pockets start pouring in money, when institutional investors start jumping in, when it hits mainstream and everyone wants to throw some money in - the expansion will not be slower. long haul is correct, but do expect to buy several apartments with your investment  Grin.
it has been estimated there are 340 k bitcoin holders currently but there are 12 mio millionaires in the world. so there´s  p l e n t y  of room.
