i think october will be an up month for bitcoin just throwing that out there

You'll get a chance to buy back lower... no worries! GLTA

LMFAO I love how you reference the pump and dump that happened early on so you can deny this thing has been falling all year! LOLLLL Start the chart at your beloved price of $1,100 & understand how this market is being manipulated to dump all these excess coins to people like you who still have faith to buy them for almost $400!!!
What are you guys smoking that this seems to be worth $400 now??? Why is it so different from the bitcoin currency that was worth double digits not even a few years ago?

Exactly... so what happens when the bubbles completely deflate???

1. i do beleive that BUSINESSES need to publicise bitcoins the same way VISA publicises FIAT. as bitcoin/FIAT are just a currency(bitcoin especially)
2. i do not believe that BUSINESSES should be in a big rush to publicise user adoption yet, as we are still in the innovation stage where more work needs to be done to make bitcoin practical for average joe to buy rent/groceries(real lifestyle stuff)

i think bitpay and circle will probably do prime time TV adverts, but only when they have profits to cover the advertising costs, without harming their business models and also when they know for sure that people can truly live a healthy life on bitcoins. otherwise some average joes will still view bitcoins as a gimmick, thus wasting those businesses alot of money.

take redbulls 'stratos' event (sky diving from space), which was world wide coverage and a multiple hour event. not simply a 45 second TV advert repeated 10 times during superbowl.

redbull also had over sporting events on that same year so the increased sales due to awareness of redbull because of just the sky dive may be less then financial results. year-on-year.

well here are the financial results of redbull PRODUCT SALES
they only had a 3.1% rise in product sales after the skydive (difference of 2012(pre skydive) and 2013(post skydive)).

bitcoins market cap and/or singular price varies by more than 3% each day/week without businesses needing to spend large amounts on advertising.

so in short
businesses WILL advertise their bitcoin services.. but only when the time is right and only when they see that their is good reason for people to jump on board.

PLEASE will people stop thinking that advertising is needed for user adoption purely for a price rise, and think more about bitcoin adoption due to usability and desire to actually want bitcoin. AGAIN when shouting about advertising needs, do not selfishly think about a price rise simply so you can profit. bitcoin is a currency that we should be growing. it should not be about a quick profit to then return to FIAT and store worthless bank notes in a bank account.

Welcome to the infancy of a new technology. These are early days.

    
Lose vs Loose

A lot of people are mixing up lose and loose. In particular, a lot of people are writing loose when they really mean lose. Here are the definitions of the two words from my Penguin dictionary:

loose [lOOs] adj not fastened or pre-packed; not tied up or confined; able to move freely; not tight, not firmly fixed; not close-fitting; careless, inaccurate, vague; dissolute, immoral; not closely woven; flabby; (of bowels) inclined to diarrhoea; l. box stable or van in which an animal can move about; at a l. end uncertain what to do next; unoccupied ~ loose adv in a loose way; play fast and l. behave rashly or unscupulously ~ loose n release; on the l. free from restraint; on a spree; ~ loose v/t untie, undo; release from confinement or constraint, set free; detatch; fire (gun); shoot (arrow); (eccles) absolve.

lose (p/t and p/part lost) [lOOz] v/t and i no longer have; be deprived of by accident or misfortune; mislay, fail to find; fail to get or win; be too late for; be bereaved of; waste; be defeated or beaten; suffer loss, become worse off; fail to hear, see or understand; cause or allow to perish; (of clock or watch) go too slowly; (refl) miss the right path; become absorbed in; l. one's head become flustered, panic; l. one's temper grow angry; l. one's way fail to find the right path; l. out (US) be defeated after a struggle.

Examples:
