Bitcoin price is a roller coaster the start of the year 2018. It goes up at first and stays then go down and stay and go up a bit then drop more so low and rapidly. Will it go up again in a loop then down and up again? We really don’t know what will happen like we really don’t know what the reason of the huge drop is. Is it the news? The bad news that affect the mind of investors or is it really manipulated? But why other altcoins price also dropped? We really don’t know right? We just depending on big investors decisions. Their decisions will affect the bitcoin price also. But what do you think can affect those peoples mind in invested and selling their bitcoin? For sure the bad news and the good news they heard. The tweets of some influential people also affect them. That’s only my opinion.

There is this news I read on some source: https://cointelegraph.com/news/cnbcs-ran-neuner-says-bitcoin-will-end-2018-at-50000, it says that CNBC’s Ran Neuner stated that Bitcoin price will end in 2018 at $50,000. Ran Neuner for sure is an influential person because CNBC is a big name in the world and he the host. And in addition to that other (28) twenty eight most influential blockchain insider according to Richtopia, Tweeted that Bitcoin price will be $50,000 in 2018. I don’t know if it will affect the price of Bitcoin or other crypto currency because as I check the CMC / Coinmarketcap.com list still on red percentage. I will just wait for next week update. Maybe this news will affect it soon.

What do you think?

bitcoin is five years time in my opinion there will be a lot of hard forks from the original bitcoin blockchain and the value of bitcoin would increase by 300 percent today's price. if transaction's speed and price remains the same, bitcoin's not improving and maybe the price wont grow that much

How do you convince the people to invest in Bitcoin?  When most of the people around doesn't believe on Bitcoin because for them Bitcoin is just computer thing...

Is it possible that Bitcoin falls lower than $6000!
Which is the level of 31 Oct 2017!

The market is fully unstable at the moment.  I personally think that the market will stable obviously ( but have no idea when    ) And I want to know your strategy towards the market, what you feel.

after a hot conversation, digital money made by Satoshi Nakamoto this year until early this year recorded a very wild and unexpected price movements. in the near future, BITCOIN can create enormous "PROFITS AND LOSSES". we as a market player or an investor very much expect price stability.
what do you think?

When I presented arguments like the one in the the video below, people just ignored them. Now, they will learn the hard way what it means to be a part of a Ponzi scheme.

Bitcoin And Cryptocurrencies - Ponzi Schemes Dressed Up And Sold As Money
https://youtu.be/gcNngl8fCUY

EDIT:

Why bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme:

In a banking system all money comes from debt. So when new money, dollars for e.g., are created, in the same time, some individual, company, or organization became legally obligated to pay these dollars back. That's the nature of debt - it must be paid. In other words, every dollar that is currently in circulation, must eventually be returned to FED or commercial banks. That means that those who received dollar loans and put dollars into circulation are forced to get these dollars back by selling their goods or services to people who have dollars. Otherwise they will fail to make necessary loan payments and as a result they will be taken to court and the banks will seize their property.
So due to the fact that dollars come from debt and debt must be paid, people who have dollars do not have just a piece of paper with some numbers on it, but instead, they have legally enforceable rights to goods or services of people who received the loans. Fiat is therefore a legal instrument that grants its holder with legal path to restore the intrinsic value in some economic goods.

Cryptocurrencies on the other hand, didn't originated from debt, so nobody is legally obligated to use them to repay the debt, which is why cryptocurrency holders have nothing but empty numbers. And if a situation occurs where nobody wants to accept cryptocurrencies in exchange for goods and services, no legally enforceable right exist upon which they can get some kind of value out of them. Hence, all that these people have is hope and faith that someone will exchange their numbers for fiat money or economic goods, which is by definition a Ponzi scheme.

Why cryptocurrencies never were and never can be money: cryptocurrencies don't have value on their own and as such they cannot serve as a measure of value.

A measure of value is pretty simple concept. It expresses the value of one thing in terms of another. In principle anything that has value on its own can serve as a measure of value. For example a toothpick. Although the intrinsic value of a toothpick is very small it is not zero since toothpick has practical utility.  So perhaps the iPhone is worth 500,000 toothpicks. A shirt may be worth 25,000 toothpicks. One hour of guitar lesson may be worth 15,000 toothpicks. And so on. Since it has value on its own toothpick acts as a measure of value and we can use it to compare the value of different goods and services. The same is true for fiat currencies. Since fiat currencies are legal claims connected to property of borrowers through loan contracts we can easily measure how many units of newly created money corresponds to a particular good, service, claim or other asset. This legal connection to property is the reason why fiat currencies can be used as a measurement of value. This is also the reason why the exchange rates of fiat currencies maintain relatively stable and have low volatility. It is precisely because these currencies are legally connected to real property and real tangible goods.

On the other hand, in the case of cryptocurrencies, besides having zero intrinsic value they are not legally connected to property. In other words there are no enforceable contracts or collateral behind them. There is no legal claim that is measured with them. There is no right which is granted to their holders. All there is, is open source software which generates stores and transfers empty numbers between members. Given the fact that number is an abstract mathematical object thet has no value on its own it is impossible in principle for cryptocurrencies to serve as a measurement of value. This is the reason why crypto currencies never were and never can be money. Also this is the reason why their price is so volatile unstable and can jump from few cents to several thousand dollars. Since they have zero intrinsic value and no legal connection to property their price depends entirely on the number of people that enter into the scheme.

What if bitcoin wasn't created?
I was just wondering what would happen to the crypto world or would still cryptocurrency be this popular this day if bitcoin wasn't created?

There are a lot of changes happened because of bitcoin and it also change the way on how we look on cryptocurrencies. Because of this some government and bank owners were alarm because of the rising popularity of bitcoin and the other cryptocurrencies. Cryptocurrencies also help many people giving them works online and gets profit from invesments.

But what if Bitcoin wasn't created, where would you be right now?
What would happen to crpyto world?
Will the cryptocurrencies be as known as it is right now?

Hello, i'm kind of new into crypto currency, I am currently trading on few exchanges. But i noticed all of the exchanges use bitcoin to deposit and withdraw, also no matter what coin you trade use bitcoins. So when you decide to withdraw your bitcoin and convert to USD, how do you go it? I don't see any option in any exchange, which is very weird.

What do you like best about bitcoin?
Decentralization, transparency or easier to move?
Or just it makes you look cool?

Guys I would like to remember everyone that there are only 21.000.000 Bitcoins in existence around 3 to 4 mil bitcoins are lost permanently. This means that we will have 16 mil bitcoins. Now the twist. 1 small country can buy all the bitcoins. The media has to fud to bring the prices down. They are really worried about Bitcoin and they can't shut it down. Just like skynet.  They will tax it but they can't shut it down.

Really I am having a blast when talking to people about Bitcoin. So many are still skeptical out of 5 only 1 buys. Yes, the market has to correct sometimes. Some are angry at me that they bought in December but they are not seeing the bigger picture. The whales are lacking the tools to properly bring the market down in my opinion. The more people that buy Bitcoin today and hold the more power the whales will lose and they must buy from miners to obtain more bitcoins then.

We can even make our own prices if all miners agreed to sell 10k only price will be 10k. 100k only 100k. 

Corrections are part of this path but we will seek higher heights. 50k+ easy this year.

Somehow I known that every years first month bitcoin falling down, and then finished the January months bitcoin go with his own speed. So, first month (January) end, now 2nd month of the year 2018. Now can be rise as like 2017? or few months ago.
How says expert research!?

Banks are now team up to use blockchain. What is your thought on this guys?
It could affect the cryptocurrency or not?

TOKYO: A Japanese company will start paying part of its employees’ salaries in Bitcoin, as it aims to get better understanding of the virtual currency, a spokeswoman said on Friday.

GMO Internet, which operates a range of web-related businesses including finance, online advertising and internet infrastructure, will start paying up to 100,000 yen ($890) monthly by Bitcoin to its employees in Japan from February next year.

“Employees can receive salaries by Bitcoin if they want to,” company spokeswoman Harumi Ishii told a French wire service.

“We hope to improve our own literacy of virtual currency by actually using it,” she said.

The offer will be open to around 4,000 employees of the GMO group in Japan, she said.

The company started a Bitcoin trading and exchange business in May.

And next month, it will join the so-called “Bitcoin mining” business — gaining the right to receive new Bitcoins as a reward for helping keep the network secure by approving transactions.

World Bitcoin prices have surged globally this year, soaring from less than $1,000 in January to $17,000 this week.
