4  Bitcoin / Mining support / Setting up a company in the UK to Mine on: August 21, 2013, 02:24:37 PM

Couple of questions really.

Are there any UK miners about?

Are you paying Tax on any mining Profits?

Have you set up a company to mine under to avoid high tax, reclaim VAT etc? And can you offer any tips if you have?

I have this question

"Bitcoin is going up? or is the dollar going down?"

Relatively easy to answer, if the BTC:USD value changes but EUR or GBP:BTC doesn't then its the dollar.

If everything is going up then its BTC.

What if the twins cause a publicity field day and "Settle" their differences with Zuckerberg the result of which being that Facebook now accepts bitcoins...
7  Economy / Speculation / Re: Market cycle : where do you think we are ? on: July 03, 2013, 07:19:30 PM
Fear, recent buyers are freaking out after buying in at +100

Really just need some good press, things are happening just nothing concrete coming out and all the while the price is trickling down.

The problem is until people can start using Bitcoins to purchase products you will find it hard to convince the average punter that its legitimate.

Catch 22 being that people aren't using bitcoin to purchase products because their aren't enough retailers, and there isn't enough retailers because the market is too small and so on.

It does seem to be crawling towards the tipping point though, we're just not there yet

I'm not exactely 100% on this but from my point of view SHA256 is the backbone of bitcoin.

If you were to take it away and use another it wouldn't be bitcoin anymore you'd just have a new Coin. So yes miners will continue to mine bitcoins because that's the accepted currency.

It would be the same as if another coin was created, essentially ASICs provide insurance that bitcoin is "the" go to coin. Since it has dedicated hardware built for it. ie they can't just flick over to a new coin and start mining that instead.

Hash rate does not affect price.

Price can occasionally affect hash rate.

That's all
11  Economy / Speculation / Re: Was there a Serious event causing current drop? on: June 12, 2013, 08:20:51 AM
Not a bad theory, I wonder if and what connection is there between the PRISM expose to this drop

I saw a news story about a link but personally I don't think the recent sells have anything to do with it. Purely coincidence
12  Economy / Speculation / Re: RALLLLY!! on: June 10, 2013, 03:21:29 PM

Sorry let me try that again

13  Economy / Speculation / Re: RALLLLY!! on: June 10, 2013, 02:55:58 PM
the big buyer to $110/btc has yet to sell, correct?

Yes, but he might of been the big seller from the day before.
14  Economy / Speculation / Re: RALLLLY!! on: June 10, 2013, 02:54:59 PM
Little bit of a downturn, not sure theres enough support to kick it back up again.

Really could do with some news around Bitcoin to get somethign started. Everything over the last few days has been done relatively blind.

We need a new start up or Ebay to allow people to pay via bitcoins.
15  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price Drop 6/7/13 on: June 08, 2013, 08:33:34 AM
People are realizing and waking up. Value isn't ever going back up the way it did before, and just like Liberty Reserve can get shut down. I know I know, the rest of you are in denial.

It's already up, even if you ignore the bubble the rise in price even from last year to its current position is quite impressive.
16  Economy / Speculation / Re: Long term down trend? on: June 08, 2013, 08:30:53 AM
Personally I think its due to the now almost media black out on Bitcoins.

There's no necessarily bad news but there aint no good news either. Kinda get the feeling one big story could throw it either way.

What your seeing is people with shaky hands selling off the moment they see any slightly downward trend.
17  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin at $112! on: June 07, 2013, 01:03:02 PM
Climbing back up already...

ish, not falling as fast is probably a better description.
18  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin at $112! on: June 07, 2013, 11:50:00 AM
Well someone just bought a big chunk of it not sure if its going to buck the trend though.
19  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin at $112! on: June 07, 2013, 11:02:18 AM
Yeah just saw this, seem to start some time last night (UK time)

Few small sells dropping the price aggresively and then suddenly this morning boom massive sell off.

Manipulation?
20  Economy / Speculation / Re: Breakout soon? on: June 07, 2013, 07:53:04 AM
my analist predict today under 110$

Your analist..... I'm not sure I want to know what their job entails
