I think the scarcity situation will eventually tell on price but what I am particularly impressed by is the fact that such a major event as halving happened without a single glitch. Absolutely incredible.

Yes, also Argentina's official conversion rate is rigged at an artificial rate that makes using the BTC rail to get money in attractive to the tune of ~ 30 to 40% more purchasing power

I would grieve but then mobilise whatever I had to try and buy them all back. FOMO would be a huge driver for me as I believe BTC price wille eventually settle at least an order of magnitude higher than where it is at now

The maximum amount of BTC ever is what I own right now, which is in the low double digits. I will try to save most if not all of them, and add wherever and whenever possible

Very, very excited and looking forward to the halving, that said I get the distinct feeling the price is going to languish for a while before we see pick-up again

I think the Ethereum crew needs to pull their finger out and fix this quickly. Its core value proposition is being discredited and that's costing Ether big-time. My sense is that it will eventually settle somewhere between $7 and $8.

Where are you based? Would you be open to a face to face, cash deal?

I still have a paypal account and use it alternately with BTC to purchase goods online. Waiting for PP's BTC integration to be rolled out in my geography, though I suspect that will take some time

That's a bit unfortunate but my understanding is that Coinbase has not been active in Germany from the outset, which is actually pretty strange as Germany is basically BTC friendly.

I am eyeing z-cash when it finally launches, though expect it will be pricey from the outset. As some have suggested, LTC may have some short-term life in it. Ether, if you want to take a punt.

I largely buy my coins on exchanges and stick into cold storage. I do a little margin lending and look to sig campaigns to make a little extra income

I think there is a chance that prices will crash post halving. If that happens, and especially if we see ~550 $ again, I will buy some more BTC and put into long term cold storage

It involves the hassle of moving BTC from the paper wallet that I would sign from into a new paper wallet, so not sure that the hassle of doing this would make sense. But interesting offer, will think about it some more

Dogecoin has zero practical utility and most importantly there is nothing valuable that it uniquely enables that wouldn't exist without it. The miners and early adopters did well, doubt that there is any upside to buying and holding

Absolutely, ever since I discovered BTC I have woken up to the power of decentralisation to drive positive changes in the economy and in our lives

I would probably keep it. I am not proud of this but that's human nature for you. Easier for me to be honest about this under a pseudonymous name

I think this will prove to be a false dawn. LTC has zero unique utility. Hard to look beyond that.

Localbitcoins into cash via many f2f deals with different guys. Then slow introduction into economy through gradual spends. I would not move the money into the banking system at all

My approach has been to create paper wallets offline on bitaddress.org and keep 90% of my BTC stash in these wallets. I have considered brain wallets before but I am concerned about the risk of them being brute forced by hackers

Received my payment, thanks. Interested in continuing if this campaign continues.
