Since the very beginning I do use USB sticks to store my wallet.dat files as cold wallets. Right now I have 10 USB sticks with all my backups. For me it's the best storing method.

Payment received, and domain is sent. Topic will be closed.

This is the winning bid. I will send you a PM.

Some members even make more than that with just 1 account enrolled in a high paying signature campaign with high post limits per week. Bit-X with their previous rates were making it very easy to get these amounts.

The big dump seems to have ended. Never say never, especially when it comes to Bitcoin, but I think it will stay around $430-$470 this year. $500 is too much of a challenge. We must be happy if the price stays around current level. It's a great achievement since a lot people didn't even expect the price to go over $300 this year.

Who beside brand new shill accounts have been talking about Bitcoin is dying? I haven't seen anyone beside you. The price will definitely go up as we are heading closer and closer towards the block halving. Each dump that you see now is just a temporary occurrence. People should not panic and use it to buy more coins if they haven't already.

This just shows what we already know. Governments are pure shit. Why can't they simply focus on something really important instead of wasting time on nonsense problems. Bitcoin is definitely the solution to end this bullshit. These people do have smartphones, so they can easily install a mobile wallet at for example blockchain.info. If they have a few hundred $ worth of Bitcoin in their wallets, then no one can demand anything from them, even governments not. But then again, the places where you can spend your coins is very limited.

I use Bitcoin every day to send and receive money. It's my main choice for online payments as it is easy, safe and fast. Great currency. I also find Bitcoin to be a great store of value. Since the very first day that I started with fully holding Bitcoin, my coins gained value significantly. I look at the long term picture, and I will see the value of my coins gain more and more value. Holding pays off. And it's of course an investment tool.

tldr.

Currency.
Store of value.
Investment tool.

I bought my coins in very early 2013. I bought several Bitcoins between $20-$25 back then at Bitstamp. I sold them at various prices ranging from $40-$50. I got a bit disappointed because I sold all my coins. After that I bought back in when the price was $75, and I kept holding since then.

PayPal is great for buyers with bad intentions. Beside that, using PayPal is like you are extorting yourself by paying high fees. It just doesn't make sense. Bitcoin is better in every aspect. With Bitcoin you as seller are also protected. No one can charge back on you.

Lol, no.

It might trigger a rally for a short time when Amazon states that it will adopt Bitcoin, but I'm not really expecting this to happen. If Amazong happens to adopt Bitcoin, then it's cool, if not, then it's fine too. As some other people here mentioned, purse.io is a great alternative with nice discounts on your purchase. No need to wait for Amazon, start using purse.io and you'll be fine.

There are so many of these kind of people who want you to think it's better to sell, but no one is buying this crap anymore. It could have effect on some people when it was still 2012/2013. Nowadays these threads do nothing.

I haven't heard much good about Bitcoin from the media so far. Here in the media, it's either Bitcoin price is reaching a 12 month high, or criminals demanding Bitcoin ransom. They just want to highlight the bad things, and that's it.

Bitcoin is bad, it's a criminal currency, it's being used to finance terrorism, it's being used to launder money, bla bla bla. That says enough.

The media will only jump in once Bitcoin reaches the $1000 price level again. If that's going to happen, then yes, there will be a lot speculation in the price that will make the price come down again at some point after the block halving. There will be a lot YOLO people stepping into Bitcoin to make a quick profit. It will be kinda like the previous time when the price touched $1000 for the first time. Pure madness.

That's right, Bitcoin is superiour in every aspect. Bitcoin stimulates micro transactions, where PayPal is being ridiculous with their fees.

Basic PayPal fees.

Sellers fee : 3.4% of the total amount + €0.35.
Business related transactions : Starting from 1.5% of the total amount + €0.35, which highly depends on your sales from the last 30 days.
Non Profit : 1.5% of the total amount + €0.35.
International payments : 0.3-1% of the total amount + converting of currency fee.

Bitcoin fees.

Any kind of transaction : $0.01-$0.04 For sending.
Receiving money : FREE  

And here amounts don't matter.

The fact that the difficulty has gone up crazily high and the price was dumped down yesterday doesn't say much. It's nothing more than whale play. Large players won't do anything that costs them money, they manipulate the market to earn big bucks. The price will recover to what can be seen as a better reflection of difficulty/price levels.

I think it will take at least 10 years before we see a price close to $10K, if ever. That would mean that the price will need to increase with at least $900 per year from now. Even that doesn't sound very realistic to me. But let's hope for the best.

No one here knows beside the big guys behind the dump. It gave us a bit action yesterday and the opportunity to buy back lower. I managed to short some coins at $451 and buy them back at $430. Not the biggest profit, but still better than nothing
