If they add LTC and it looks they will at some point soon, it will be good thing for ltc holders but awful for cryptocurrency being adopeted by masses.
They are still to be introduced to bitcoin, last thing needed is another thing to come to them.

They could but they won't ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) It's one thing to mine, speculate or invest some play money, it's other to run daily small business on speculation how much your good are going to be worth in 10 minutes.

Bitcoin can be massively adopted only when it would have some price stability.
No chance we'll see people spending lot of their bitcoins because they hope it's value will rise and no chance we'll see merchants massively accepting bitcoins when there is a constant fear of bubble and crash.
It's simple as that, some tech internet companies might adapt it but until bitcoins stop to be hugely speculative stuff there'll be no mass adoption.
How do you define mass adoption? People spending their BTC? Or people hoarding their BTC? Still mass adoption of the coin either way. And as all the data suggests do to bank account confiscations and precious metal confiscations now occurring in Europe there is a flood of people adopting BTC. I define it the mass adoption as OP said it - paying pizza with it, pizzerias paying suppliers, they paying their suppliers etc.. No chance those kind of businesses are going to massively adapt bitcoins unless it's tied with fiat value. Supplier doesn't want to sell his good to pizzeria just to find that bitcoin went 15% down while he was driving back what would eat all his profit on that transaction.

Gox is most idiotic market ever... they bloody log me off each 20 minutes and I bought numerous times when I wanted to sell because of this. I am on sell tab for some time, these f****rs log me off and I instinctively click the button thinking I'm scheduling a sale order.

Day trading is almost impossible with these lags.. you need to react in seconds and you can make orders in minutes, lol

|
|
|
well, there's nothing verified on Internet. It should be reputable member/site etc..
|
|
|
I can definitely see increased selling... yeah, there are people who'll keep their bitcoins but some people invested lot and they'll want some of it back.

When ASICs hit the market, GPU's are doomed.
|
|

Is there some option to buy shares in some mining project? Preferrably ASIC one.
