why not offer WF transfer for coins in the marketplace? they are a pretty big bank, bound to be some interest.  True, though I do not plan on buying until things settle down (crash). I would like to have fiat ready when it does. |

They won't take those, have to write your email on the check as well as your username. Can't be a printed check must be a personal normal check.
BIPS.me might still do bank ACH's as well.
Ahh, the bill pay checks allow for a memo. Maybe I will try a small transaction to test it. I've tried, didn't work. Been months and still never credited to my account at campbx. It was also never debited from my bank since they never cashed the check. Ahh, ok. BIPS.me appears to be a merchant bitcoin payment site, not an exchange. |

CampBX also allows checks, maybe have someone at home send in a check for ya.
I also noticed campbx will soon be able to do ACH pulls.
Otherwise I guess coinbase is your best bet.
Hmm, I can send online bill pay checks from Wells Fargo. It would be great if that worked. Though I am not a big fan of their help support turn around. |

I am currently in Afghanistan on a military base. I have a lot of money I want to turn into Bitcoins but now that CampBx does not allow Dwolla deposits I have no way of getting money from my Wells Fargo account to an exchange.
CoinBase allows for bank transfers but they also do not allow me to set a buy price.
I checked the Wells Fargo site and the only way to send an international wire transfer is if I go into the store to set it up.
Bitstamp, Bitfinex and BTC-e allow international wire transfers, CampBx allows USPS money orders.

So where are we now? The price has doubled in the past 20 days...will it double again in 10 days?  |

One clue could include geocaching...where you place the clue somewhere and provide hints on how to get there.

I love how easily everyone falls for psychological digit barriers and is unable to think in log scale.
The $32 bubble, well, price went up over 1000%. It crashed to below where it started. And after a while we recovered and now $32 is ancient history.
The $13-$266, well, price went up over 1000%. And we never even hit the start point during the crash! Heck, we stayed almost 400% above the start point at all times! And now, not even a year later, all but the folks who bought in at the very top are seeing gains. What a bubble.
Now we've gone up, what, 40% from pre-SR-news price... and everyone's convinced that this is the worst possible time to buy into the "bubble" and it must end soon... will pop as soon as it gets over $200..
It might end right after we cross $200. But then again, we may just see another 1000%. Don't underestimate the market (or overestimate, for that matter.) Remember when a whole bunch of people were convinced $29 was the top in early 2013...
So...sell at $1250...gotcha. |

I tend to buy when the mood on here is doom and gloom and hold when everyone is talking about how the price will never stop.

This rally/bubble seems to be china-driven.
Makes sense. We are just along for the ride on this one. You can scream bubble bubble at all of us and we could even agree, but it would not affect the price. |

Do some of you here actively play BitFantasy? I looked a little more into it, and looks like a MAJOR development I played for a while before getting busy on other things. Very fun game. |

I am curious to see when the first of these gets rolled out.

When mainstream news pundits are talking about the amazing price growth, that's early warning. So far *crickets*
Mainstream news pundits always include the word "bubble" whenever mentioning Bitcoin and a rise in price. |

2) Coupled with the above, this forum becomes full of posts predicting the price doubling by next week and so on. See March/April 2013 posts.
Very true...the worst time to buy is when everyone is excited about how rich they are going to be. The best time to buy is when even you believe that Bitcoin has failed and people should just get out what they can before it falls to zero. |

It is always a good idea to buy when the price is high.
But if it crashes your friend may want to sell at the lowest point.

It seems like Chinese citizens are desperate to get their money into some sort of investment. When the government allowed people to invest in a second home it became such a huge craze of investment that they now have empty cities of "second homes" built purely for investment.
Whether it is Baidu or anything that gets the word to Chinese people with money to invest, if Bitcoin becomes even a sliver of the craze of other investments it will skyrocket the price.
But yes, it will be a bubble. They are in a housing bubble right now and if the US defaults on its loans, China will be hit. So a huge Chinese investment in Bitcoin will not be a solid foundation.

I don't follow. Who did what to whom? What exactly am I signing here? I am so confused.
Quite tragic. Our federal government is hemeraging money so the Republicans attempted to stop one of the biggest entitlement programs in US history that will pretty much put the final nail in the coffin. But all they did was stop 15% of the government in an attempt to stop the utter destruction. This was not enough because we were still going deeper into debt. So instead of doing the right thing and stopping more government, the Republicans caved and allowed the Democrats to have unlimited spending (which they quickly took advantage of). So the GOP should be arrested for conspiracy to stand back and allow the Democrats to destroy the country. |

Yep, I agree, I should probably not be that scared, personally. Though I am trying to make a point for those that probably should be exercising a bit fear insofar as their exposure. Ahh, the classic "I do not need to be regulated but there are people out there that need it". Kinda like when you watch a news program and they talk about "some people say". We do not need to fix problems for imaginary people. There are enough things to deal with already. |

Figure out all of the things that could go wrong with Bitcoin. Then get inside information from all angles of those that could be involved in such a thing and when that bad thing happens, take advantage of the impending price drop.
For Silk Road all you had to do was track down who the guy was that was running it and monitor him and the FBI to see when they arrest him.
There was the bug in the code early in the year, you could have learned the code and found the bug yourself and waited to see if anyone else found it as well. When they did, sell.
You could have found out who Pirate was and figured out when he was going to start defaulting on all of his promises.
When the government stole MtGox's money you could have had a mole in the government to tell you before they did it.
All very simple things that could be done. Find out the next thing that will drop the price and just time it.
So you think only way to predict such thing is only via inside information? It is a way. All you need is all knowledge of everything and you are all set. |
