There's too much emphasis on the price, and it is the least interesting part about bitcoin honestly.
We need everybody involved in bitcoin right now to do their part in getting everybody they know to start using Bitcoin too.
As of now, with the CFTC ruling Bitcoin as a digital commodity, its uses as a currency are feigning.
No it is NOT the least interesting part of bitcoin.... acting like the price does not matter is not doing any favors to the bitcoin community. If you look at a chart for the peak google searches on bitcoin, or when the most number of wallets were opened, it all happened during bullish rallies. That's how bitcoin gets in the spotlight, it looks attractive for people to get on board, more people are interested when the price goes up, and more people are enthusiastic about bitcoin when their wealth goes up. Now, after a 2 year bear market, there is nothing but pessimism... newcomers will not even touch bitcoin when all it has done for the last 2 years is lose value. We really need a huge price rally for the sake of bitcoin's success I was never comfortable using Bitcoin as a currency anyway, nobody likes to see their wealth swing wildly.
No one likes to see their wealth just goes down and STAYS down |

If you want to wait for many years, then maybe you can break even. But in near future, I don't think so.

ALL, Thanks for all the messages, I read every one of them and you guys are very positive which is refreshing during this time. But real talk, what the FUCK is going on with this sub $250-$300 price? (Edit- Actually the price is at $230 now, wow)... we are about to approach 2 years of bear market. You early motherfuckers used to see massive bubbles every year, now it's almost become a fantasy. What if there are no more bubbles? What if the block size debate and other limitations becomes the end of bitcoin? What if the devs decide to get rid of the 21million supply cap? There are so many things that are possible that could lead us to a shitty price.... Yet I still have hope. I'm almost positive we are in the extreme lows right now and the price will eventually rise by 2016 block halving. But I have my doubts about it reaching ATH again, or even $1000, or even $690 where I would break even (Update- I've been buying in the 200s and my price avg should be lower than $690... it's maybe about $630 now). It just sucks that I will probably have to wait another year to see any exciting action... I'm really sick of all the bad news and the bear market that never ends. You are looking at this the wrong way sir.
Excuse me? You have posted this thread on March 01, 2015, 11:34:57 PM, so you can compare now and then value of Bitcoin, I hope you are nearing to the point of break even, hope you will make it down the line in 6 months or a year and wishing you for very good luck !

Wow, 6 months ago.... and the price right now is $230, pretty sure it's lower than when I posted  But still, I know bitcoin is going through rough patches right now.... I would just hold for a few more years and see where it goes, you can invest in some other Alts if you wanna try your luck, but best bet is to just hold and hope for the best.
That's what I'm thinking, about needing to hold for a few years....I don't forsee any kind of rally or exciting news anytime soon. Not any time soon. I would stay bulllish as hell now that we'll see lower prices thanks to the blocksize debate and people having doubts (ignore them they are clueless and bitcoin will live on one way or another). Keep buying monthly, all month is bull month.
I think this is the last time bitcoin will be this cheap, next bounce off i think it will take off and go to the moon! I just hope it doesnt even get back to 500 $ ever, it stays 700$-1000$ range for the next 2-3 years! You are very optimistic, it's just hard to be when you see the kind of bullshit that's been happening over the last year. Any tiny uprising we see in price have been crushed by downward pressure. Any good news gets buried by all the bad ones. The sentiment and confidence in the community seems to be near an all time low, which is understandable because of this damn 2 year bear market. I just hope things turn around and go the other way for once |

Why do you want it to rise to 10'000$/BTC?
.....To buy more things.... are you stupid? |

2- there are now 2 new entries of 500 ltc eatch in that wallet
2 in the latest 10 hours. Look at yesterday and past days... More than 20 per hour. This Ponzi is dead, when they decide to liquidate the rest of their LTC assets it will be over. PS: Don't look just at the BTC/LTC pair, they will sell LTCs into other currencies where possible. They will try to keep the BTC/LTC as high as possible until it's too late so don't expect big sell offs in BTC/LTC in the next hours. You read it here first. 6/13/2015 6:39:49 PM (UTC) LVW9rw6qQn1JrZVLAhneQzm8ZmhELpznmH see tx - 30,000 LTC 6/13/2015 6:39:49 PM (UTC) LVW9rw6qQn1JrZVLAhneQzm8ZmhELpznmH see tx - 20,000 LTC 6/13/2015 6:39:49 PM (UTC) LVW9rw6qQn1JrZVLAhneQzm8ZmhELpznmH see tx - 30,000 LTC 6/13/2015 6:33:11 PM (UTC) LVW9rw6qQn1JrZVLAhneQzm8ZmhELpznmH see tx - 20,000 LTC 6/13/2015 4:22:27 PM (UTC) LVW9rw6qQn1JrZVLAhneQzm8ZmhELpznmH see tx - 20,000 LTC 6/13/2015 4:22:27 PM (UTC) LVW9rw6qQn1JrZVLAhneQzm8ZmhELpznmH see tx - 25,500 LTC 6/13/2015 4:22:27 PM (UTC) LVW9rw6qQn1JrZVLAhneQzm8ZmhELpznmH see tx - 20,000 LTC it happend in june The dump last night dwarfs this though Lets just hope that wallet keeps getting the 500/LTC or else this pump might really be over |

sounds like a pyramid scheme. He's saying that some people doing whatever (probably investing in him) is getting 4000 LTCs a day as a reward
Well: given the recent plummet, it now looks like a pyramid scheme that's collapsed... I don't think so, it seems that someone who had a shitload of litecoins took advantage of the situation and cashed out, and this may actually help the pyramid scheme, as now it's cheaper to get in, in fiat I mean. I think it's impressive that a scheme like this can drive the price up so much. What? It looks like the pyrimid schemer himself sold all his LTC https://coinplorer.com/LTC/Addresses/34Ae29qWAhGGTw3cSNkPygiwsgKbbCatou |

Has already begun, trolls quiet and price rising, join while you can or regret later
i'm not sure, it could really be the hype around greece and nothing else, remember that we did already touch this price and 300 too, then we dropped like dead weight if we can stay above 300 for quite some time, then you can talk about a bullish trend, but until then i'll be conservative I hope it's more because we just went though the longest bear phase we have ever seen, and it's finally time for a god damn correction |

Lol at idiots ITT.....
$300 is nothing. We were just in an 18-month bear market and it doesn't mean the bull cycle is broken. There is evidence to suggest that the price has been suppressed by market manipulators and accumulation has been going on during this great depression. When we get back to the bull market, when the whales decide to pump the price again, when people waiting in the sidelines jump in, when FOMO kicks in... we are gonna shoot way past $300.
Fuck slow n steady and $300 at the end of 2015 LMAO.... lets go $1000+!!!

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=663.msg6909#msg6909I'm fairly new to BitCoin, i realy like it's philosophy so i'll try to keep supporting it for a while.
I quickly ran into some things that i noticed.
There's no option to select a default priority for the process, it would be nice to have it run default on 'below normal' priority, currently, by default it kills my gaming experience or even youtube. And it's quite annoying to set the priority lower with taskmanager every time.
The Wallet shouldn't have a hardcoded location in %appdata%, it would be nice if i could store the wallet on my TrueCrypt volume and just have a settingsfile in the BitCoin program folder point to it.
It should be optional to select a 'sender', currently i can only send anonymous transactions, thats's quite annoying when accepting donations where the donator is to receive something in return, or even just to know who paid for the product or service you 're providing.
Thats it for now i'll update when i bump into more.
What happened to you? Actually, no wonder you're trying so hard to manipulate people into selling

There are several things that could be done with it instead of holding it and hoping that the value back to where you purchased it
can you please tell us couple of them? day trading is risky, investing to dice-site is risky, cloud mining is unprofitable or ponzi, gambling is mega risky..I really don't get, what you actually mean. Maybe I'm just conservative or something, but waiting to recover seems to me no-risk most feasible way how to deal with loss.. I have already said somewhere (and probably exactly in this thread) that one of the simplest strategy to deal with a loss is to sell some small part of your Bitcoin holdings (say 5-10%) now when the price has risen a little from its support levels, and then wait and see. If the price continues to grow, wait for an increase of, say, 10-15%, then sell again. Since it is highly unlikely right now that the price will rise more than 20% without a significant rebound, you will be able to buy back when the price reverts for the same 10-15%... And you can do the same with smaller parts of your hoard, thereby taking chance to profit from smaller rebounds (potentially down to exchange fees) You are still playing a guessing game and hoping you are selling at the top of a run and hoping you can get back in lower. From my experience I can almost never time this right. You need to cover your investment by trading your coins. Hedging is important when putting larger sums of money into longer term investments.
Since I'm not a trader, this sounds like a fast way to lose even more coins |

If we rise another 25 dollars I am donning a spacesuit.
Anyone that bought into alt coins about 2 months ago is doing very well. Anyone that bought into alt coins a year ago (me) is doing very poor. |

If anything the recent Litecoin rise should reflect on the argument about the halving being priced in already for BTC.
Lol at the "rise"..... from $1.95 - $2.00..... wow guys, so amazing! such rise! we can expect the same for bitcoin next year! |

Funny, I am in the same boat. I bought a large amount of bitcoin at $650-$700 and I've been suffering ever since ..
We ride together or we die together.... bitcoin broz 4 lyfe! |

If you have patience you will regain your loses.
How much patience..... are we talking 2 years or 20 years? 20years will make you a millionaire. A millionaire by 47? I don't mind..... would like to be one in my 30s though |

I think your prediction was off by a few dollars
It is not nov 2015... While I doubt we'll see such insane numbers one thing seems to be obvious Bitcoin can do some crazy shit. It certainly can.... and I hope it STILL can. The last few months of stability kinda sucked. The last 18 month crash was even worse. People are purposely keeping the price down, but I hope it's because they are going to let it rise exponentially again.... without chipping away profits every time the price recovers a tiny bit |
