What are the implications of this?

What are the implications of this? Where is the interest towards bitcoin coming from? Are we going to the moon right now?

I'm not very good at analyzing statistical data but in my honest opinion that graph doesn't prove shit.There was one point when prices rocketted sky high, after that everything seems normal,I'd say "stable".The slight increment in the graph to this day is a good thing but not quite sure if its going to the moon or staying right there.You can't even utilize the previous sequences to predict anything.

Its good to see people have more interest in bitcoin due to googles analytics. But it still has a long way to go obviously.

Id be more thrilled to see like how many people were typing in bitcoin in 2013 like that huge chart. We need a huge spike that to see more new money onto these exchanges.

Spike was Craig Wright, 80% sure of that.

As for the actual implications, chances are nothing is going to come out of this. It was some people interested in Bitcoin because chances are they had no idea what it was, but I highly, highly doubt that we'll see anything more come out of this than maybe some people joining the community because of their interest in the technology or the community (or making money).

I doubt something will happen, but you never know.

That was 1 month ago. The mainstream is surely very slow to catch on. There must be some other news.

Maybe venezuela or brazil economic problems, who knows. Or just some service opened up in a country and people get interested.

I'm thinking its that creator of bitcoin story. Even my mum came to me saying she'd heard something about the bitcoin creator being found

When in doubt always point to China for the recent spikes on any graph,least thats how I do it.
The fear of financial stall is becoming ever more clear but some economists figure it will be a slow regression like Japan went through rather than a sudden drop off.
Could also be related to the halving coming up and a lot of speculating around it.

I'm not sure the Chinese bother with google in any numbers whatsoever. They have a mountain of their own internet infrastructure which we barely hear of in the west.

I agree that the timing leans toward the whole Craig being Satoshi news, tons of people would have been exposed to that story.

The spike is halving related. Even Craig Wright is halving related.

so is the future of bitcoin.

true,m the craig = satoshi incident did spike a lot of search interest, but there is also renewed interested after that, which might be because of the upcoming halving, but might also be because more people are interested in bitcoin.

any serious rise will often be predated by a surge in new interest.

This plus halving story. We have in this forum 100+ threads about halving that bring absolutely nothing new on the table. So sadly spike in google analytics is not yet a prove of a rally starting. most probably it is a false positive.

[Evildrum]

Doubt the public has anything to do with the halving news and that increasing the spike.
Seems a bit late for the Satoshi  story but the public does tend to get their news at a slower rate if they are not online or tapped into the story personally.

I pissed out a kidney stone the size of a dinosaur egg last night. Halving related too. I can't wait to get it over and done with.
