Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

The bitcoin market cap is still in the 100 million dollar range
If "instagram" is worth $1b, then bitcoins are worth much more than that. Not selling until triple digits

Considering that I keep a client open all the time and it is always uploading the blockchain at full speed to other users, I would say people are pouring in like rain!!! Better keep those bitcoins!  |

Isn't that what a market is? Either too many dreamers or too many nay-sayers!!  |

Inevitably this short term trend will correct and reverse and then people will suddenly find themselves holding more bitcoins that they thought they needed which will fuel a spending/exchanging circle until we find a bottom and repeat the whole pendulum swinging cycle. The reason this is so hard to picture is because many people falsely think there is a such a thing as an equilibrium. The reality is an equilibrium is purely theoretical and in practice the market is constantly readjusting. Currently the market is readjusting to a rising exchange rate, which if the demand keeps up might rise for a while longer but there will come a point when we run out of people wanting bitcoins, remember people can't eat them, or wear them, pr live in them and there is a finite number of people, so yes there's a limit to the demand and when we get to it the trend will reverse and the market will continue to correct except now it will correct in the opposite direction where even the correction itself will become a contributing factor to the correction until again people realize they could use some more bitcoins instead of other stuff where the market will again correct. And this will go on and on and on for ever, because there is no equilibrium. |

As long as the fiat economy is mostly functional, Bitcoins are likely in very strong hands. We'll see how many are selling in a few months, though.

I'm not selling because I don't need to buy anything. It's this revolutionary concept called "saving." I know, I know.

"Saving" with Bitcoin is probably a very stupid thing to do. It's more of an "investment". |

"Saving" with Bitcoin is probably a very stupid thing to do. I disagree. Saving with fiat, however, definitely would be. |

And this will go on and on and on for ever, because there is no equilibrium. Nice long ramble, but honestly right now, no one knows what the hell bitcoins are. News is spreading like wildfire and new people are coming every day. Its about supply and demand. Right now the supply is there, but the demand isn't. The price is still going up up and away. Once people actually find out what bitcoins are, there will be a demand, its a sloooooooooooooow process.. Right now slowly more people are finding out and more merchants are accepting. |

The demand (for the supply that "is there") is clearly there, or the price wouldn't be going up. If you're saying we're nowhere near the ceiling for that demand, I completely agree. |

"Saving" with Bitcoin is probably a very stupid thing to do. It's more of an "investment". Fiat is guaranteed to lose purchaing value. Bonds rates are less than inflation. Equities are generally overpriced and heavily manipulated against the little guys. So the average person (who can't afford to build their own business, or put savings into buying real estate) it really just left with commodities and bitcoin as reasonable options. Most commodities are hard to sell rapidly if you need it. Even with gold and silver, you can expect to lose 5-10% in USD when purchasing and selling. Bitcoin seems to be a good choice among a mixed bag of savings, along with things like guns and bullets, non-perishable food, PM's, etc. |

At least thats how it works in stock market. But it doesn look like too many players wanna get rid off their coins. I guess most people with coins go with the flow.
What is reason you are not selling?
I tried, man! I dumped $30,000 worth of coins on the market, and the price is STILL rising! |
