new highs possible only after memory fades

[David Rabahy]

Here's my thought; the next bubble won't really take off strong until after the history of the last bubble fades from memory enough.  Developing fundamentals have to accumulate enough to blur the previous bubble into obscurity.  We aren't there yet.  The current developing fundamentals have a ways to go yet to mask the memory of the last bubble.  New features and functions will attract new users only when they features and functions are "better" enough.  Even then that won't be enough.  The potential new users need to become aware.  New investors won't remember the past performance directly; instead they will look at the charts which remain clearly visible for many years.

If you want Bitcoin to succeed then;

1) don't just sit there and wait for someone else to do the work
2) actively promote Bitcoin
3) avoid losing heart

If you want Bitcoin to fail then please go find something else to do.

So you define the success bitcoin can have by it going through a speculative bubble. How sad.

I woulda thought the hope of a fresh bubble, or preferably a significant price rise that sustains, is the main factor in keeping interest alive and growing.

The bubble at the end of 2013 largely defines Bitcoin. That was when it went crazy in media and a lot of the world first heard about it. I don't necessarily believe that we can, or even should, forget this bubble, as it was an integral part of Bitcoin growth. Furthermore, I disagree that still remembering that bubble will prevent a further one.

bubble is just a difference between order and supply ... and, bitcoin supply is very little compared to QE 

but bubble is more difficult to create (a real one with more than 500 USD from the botton to the top) in actual world because we have serious exchange to deal with supply ... very quickly.

but, again, it's a very good thing because people will want bitcoin ... fast.
bitcoin IS FAST.

more than KYC ... on others assets like gold with FAKE volume and FAKE price and ... FAKE FAKE FAKE supply.

too much people are hoping for a fresh bubble to show up anytime soon or after the halving. bitcoin mostly goes in the opposite direction.

Dear Mr. David,

I have been doing my part.  I have convinced my aging parents, my [so-called] friends, my [currently ex] employer, and my coworkers [who can really hurt a guy] to invest in Bit coin.
Right after learning about it myself, just shy of 2 years ago.

Since then, I have been disowned by my family; beaten on numerous occasions by [ex]friends and total strangers; fired from my job, and am constantly taunted and laughed at by neighborhood children. What's worse, Mr. David, those little statist piglets also make fun of my own Little Ones - for being dirt poor because their daddy dimed out all his credit cards to invest in digital tokens on the internet.

I try to explain to those brainwashed little goobermint stooges that they don't know nothing about F.I.A.T. toilet paper printed out of thin air by Jewish banksters, but that just makes them laugh even worse!
I'm at the end of my rope, Mr. David, all out of disruptive ideas, I'm at the tipping point. Tell me what I should do now?

Kill all of us and then kill yourself. It's the only way.

[gentlemand]

I want in on this.

As a victim or perp?

You want free market libertarian nutters to donate you the money to kill them? Stand on your own two feet, boy.

Yeah. I'm just about done too. We can book a fun bus to the mass grave.

Not charity - sound investment!

[David Rabahy]

Er, be reasonable, don't invest more than you can afford to lose.  Geesh.

[BlindMayorBitcorn]

Bitcoin doesn't need pimp-shilling. It's unsavory.

[RyanX]

People have short memory. They will forget about the recent 20 month bear market and chase bitcoin to very high level.

So you define the success bitcoin can have by it going through a speculative bubble. How sad.

Price of BTC is in direct relation to mass adoption, which we all want. So price-talk isn't that insensible.

1 you're an idiot, you fell for the hype and invested money your clearly never had into a risky new technology at the peak of its hype

2 you're an idiot amongst other things.  you dont know nothing about nothing or nothing.  i dont feel bad for people like you and i am laughing at you now.

But we can achieve anything by talking to convince. When people simply ignore something, the best explanations with proper example will do magic. Marketing people will do that. So, spreading the word on bitcoin definitely will increase the user base of bitcoin.
