1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do bitcoins better than bank cards like debit or credit cards? on: August 10, 2017, 10:32:57 PM
Credit cards are a great way to pay for things.

I think the only problem is they are based on fiat.

Someday many people will use credit/debit cards to pay with Bitcoin instead of fiat.

One of the main benifits of credit/debit cards is a charge-back, how would this work if you based it on Bitcoin?
2  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Dynamic Fees on: August 10, 2017, 10:26:20 PM
Lately, with Bitcoin's price rising, fees are definitely increasing. Not (only) because of the sat/b, but as every satoshi gets worth more and more, the usage for smaller denominations (say, $10) becomes less and less worth it.

So any ideas on dynamic fees, based on price? I've seen some stuff here and there about ETH's own efforts to combat this, but with Bitcoin the need isn't a future one but a current one.

Note: this is not a topic of whether BTC fees are too high in general based on usage, so please no block size shills or "go use something else for micro-transactions", because I'm just curious on how this could work within Bitcoin.
3  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Price Will Go To 1800 - 1900 USD This Summer And Then Go Down on: May 16, 2017, 07:36:17 AM
why it should go down? just because you think the value is too high? or increased to fast? both are not true, first the value increased only by 40%, we had bigger increased in the past

remember the $200-->$400 or the $400 --->$700?, 40% is nothing not a bubble for sure i can say that 40% is a natural grow due to more adoption

many are still accustomed to the pump and dump of early days of bitcoin and can not see that the price will increase and be rock solid bat this current rate from now, due to more people accepting bitcoin

Rapid adoption is short term expectation, and a lot of mass markets buying without education. After a couple weeks/month short term expectations and increase awareness of Bitcoin, including the current scaling issues, will trigger a large correction.
