I still think the true sign of a believer is when you bring it up in every day conversations. Bitcoin becoming more mainstream is the ultimate goal. Obviously making a ton of profit from it is great, but it's still secondary to it gaining mainstream respect.

I do bring it up but most people look confused. The most common question I get is "who's in charge of bitcoin?", and I talk about "the community" and "open source". Obviously a very new concept to most people, who haven't got a clue what open source is and they seem very dubious about a "currency" without anyone being in control of it.

Just tell them on the contrary. Ask them if they prefer a currency that can be easily manipulated and devalued at the whim of those banks and governments that control it?

No, if you're a true believer you believe in the network, you believe in Bitcoin and its future no matter what happens. Then you're a true believer, otherwise you're just a speculator.

What you mean show them the price of bitcoin over the last week? That will install a lot of confidence in them Wink Manipulation, devaluation aplenty in bitcoinland, not just in bankland.

NCM are you a true believer of bitcoins? Well I am not a true believer of bitcoin but a true hater of bitcoin. Bitcoin is backed up by the emotions of investors once this belief of investors turn into hate then there will be a downward move up to a point where it become impossible for it to recover ever

I think the opposite can also be true. If you believe in BTC as a currency, it's worth holding on to for the future as an investment. Whether you hold it now or spend later, you're still a believer in the currency.

If you are a true believer you wouldn't care about the price since you use it as a currency not an investment.

We have to care about the price. If it went back to $1, all the investment would stop, there would be no bitcoin ATM machines, no hardware wallets  developed, no incentive for people to develop new services. It would be the end of bitcoin.

I don't think it going back down to $1 would be the end at all. A lot of people would've lost money for sure, but it can and still will be used as a currency and people will still be developing things for and around it. I'm sure it'd rise back up as people bought in anyway. Maybe a lower steady number would be better in the long run for the currency.

Yeah, I can't see how it'll ever becoming steady to be honest. With every big merchant or media hit it'll grow in price. Maybe if it becomes truly mainstream it'll taper off, but there's going to be fools panic selling everything there's a slight drop or some bad news for a while.
