I'm almost certain we'll see some explosive growth at some point this year. I think there will be a point where the demand will outgrow the supply and we'll see a great leap in bitcoin's worth. There seems to be more and more companies accepting bitcoin almost daily and I'm sure we'll see some really big companies accepting it sooner or later. The question is just when.

I really think if one large enough company started to accept bitcoin and gave some sort of advantage to using it (free shipping, 5% off on all bitcoin purchases) then it would give people an incentive to actually buy some bitcoin. Then if bitcoin speculators saw this and pulled or raised their sell orders, price could go up very quickly. I think the hardest part of educating the public is being done on a daily basis and is greatly helping with the potential for a big rise in value even if only some new people come aboard.

A bank is only going to give you the Fiat value of the coin.  Banks do not deal with the silver spot price. 

The only way you would ever cash them in for the fiat face value would be if silver crashed to below $5/oz.  ie - probably never.

Wait - so I go to a bank, and they'll give me $5 for a coin?  Can I go to like a local silver dealer and sell it to them for the silver spot price instead?

Overall, is that ebay link a good deal in terms of investment?

That is actually a decent price, only about $2 more than at JM Bullion.  If your trying to buy and sell them quickly, that probably wont happen, although theres lot of talk about global financial crisis sending PM's skyhigh.  I think it is a possiblilty.

But, if you are looking at silver, I'd say definitely stick with the government minted coins (Maples, Eagles, Philharmonics), they will always be easiest to sell if you need to, and will get you the best premium over spot.

I'm not planning to sell them right after - maybe create a small collection, but if I were to really want to sell them, I want to make sure that I can get back most of my invested amount.  So these coins, I could sell for over $100 USD right now, easily, correct?

Definitely. At the very least you could get spot price, which right now is around $21, so about $105.  But you should be able to always get at least some premium over spot for maples.

Dragging this out? Once the escrow was set up you asked for confirmation of the escrow address and features of the phone which you could have googled amd figured out in minutes. Shipping and delivery dates had already been confirmed. If you are not interested thats fine. Please stop with this back and forth though, cause now I've only been wasting my time dealing with you.

Dailydogecoin.com has not paid and appears to be backing out based on his most recent message. Phone is still up for sale unless he comes through with the agreed upon sale. I asked him to message DannyHamilton if he is backing out so as not to waste any more of his time.

Thank you DannyHamilton.  Here is the shipping info:

USPS Priority Mail w/ tracking provided, usually 2-day, it will depend on where he is in the US.  If payment is made tonight I can ship tomorrow and expected delivery will be tues-wed.  0.95 includes shipping costs.

Late delivery and failure to deliver should not be issues, but if they were I would cancel the transaction.

If buyer backs out or cancels I would hope he would let me know as soon as possible.

Still awaiting confirmation if he wants me to inspect the phone and provide pics of seal being carefully removed and all equipment inside, as well as verification of IMEI and warranty date.

Offer from DalyDogeCoin.com of 0.95BTC contingent on me finding an escrow. Well send a pm and hopefully set this up today. To answer your question though it will work like this: you send me your making address and then send the btc too the escrower. Once he verifies receiving payment, I can ship and when you get it and make sure it's all there you tell him to release it.  Also please let me know if you would like me to inspect the contents of the box prior to shipping.

I can confirm this just waiting for escrow. Yes I would like to inspect it. Mo pictures mo betta

PM sent.  As soon as he can set up escrow and payment is received I will CAREFULLY remove the seal and inspect whats inside.  I expect everything will be sealed and such, but if you would like I could plug in just to confirm its working properly.  Thanks!

The problem with exploding prices is that volatility inhibits usage as people are scared to go in or spend. But increased usage would make the price explode. Not sure how this can be tackled.

Agreed. I can't see Bitcoin going fully mainstream until the price has stabled out. Any guesses on how long that may take?

But with mainstream acceptance, naturally loads more people will be acquiring BTC.  So I would think that would cause value to rise.  Then once acceptance has grown to a large enough level, I imagine the price would stabilize.

Yeah I wont be posting the actual IMEI, because this phone has never been registered or activated I dont know what someone could do with it.  I will blot it out though and post the results showing it to be a genuine phone.

I've noticed that Forbes is very high on Bitcoin for about a year now.   Grin

Yes, Forbes has been one of the publications to have literature on BTC almost every day.  It is nice that their articles are not all FUD too.   Many of the news outlets only report the bad news, and then when prices go way up, they just say "Bitcoin went up today.."

Yeah its nice to see he's got his money where his mouth is too, this author actually has some BTC and even is converting more of his gold to BTC.

It already has 'exploded', but I'm sure we'll see another explosion soon enough. I think bitcoin will grow to where demand outstrips the supply and that should see some explosive growth.

Yes, especially once a 100% legit US base exchange (potentially this is where the wall st money will go) is opened.  That will help people obtain BTC and start using it day to day.  The limited nature of BTC will also help drive the value up.

ya really- jesus-people are going to want a urine sample-dna-sperm,frozen and and living-fingerprints and a full biometric scan with contrast just to buy a cell phone... will someone buy this guys phone  so i can cut the cake... you have done more than enough to prove yourself bro...best of luck to you...

ps. i am looking for a boost 4g if somebody has one

I know right, I mean its pretty easy to spot a scammer on here, they would be a newbie posting a phone like this for $300, have a 2 post count, and never respond to any pm's.  Not to mention I already have good trust ratings for selling other samsung gear on here!!!

nobody is trying to spot a scammer here, you wouldn't believe how many fake samsung s5's there is out there and how well they are build. i repeat, you won't know until you connect the phone to your PC or open it up. i just want to make sure it's the original before i make an offer and there is nothing wrong with that!

Ok, checking the imei should settle any questions about authenticity also.  I forgot but will post a ss of that later with the warantee check also.

Its not too hard to spot a fake though, the charge port is different on fakes, it will be missing UL approval stickers and there are other pretty easy differences to spot, although I am 100% certain this is not fake.

This article gives a very concise, but accurate history of bitcoin, and what is going on with it right now.  I definitely agree that it is currently on track to start lowering debit/credit card/cash use by large amounts.  Also I have seen coinbase now allowing merchants who go through them have the option to give bitcoin paying customers a % discount on their puchases, giving an incentive for people to pay with BTC.  This I think could really start getting people interested.

Anyway, I think hes right about the "venture capital" phase being just about complete, allowing the "wall street" phase to begin this fall/winter.  It is interesting times coming in the near future no doubt!
