  Sigh, I am out of fiat ammo for the moment and no new supplies coming in the first days...

bought at 3870 and ready for more!

[JimboToronto]

Easy, easy! There won't be enough bitcoins to buy back for everyone that sold.

That's the whole idea.

As long as suckers sell and investors buy the dips and hold, coins will become scarcer and scarcer. The price will continue to rise as more and more people come on board.

Investors will become richer and richer and the suckers will do what they always do... lose money.

[HanvanBitcoin]

Well i guess it wont be going much lower. Just  bought the dip

This will be a Fiat race tomorrow. In Europe today is public holiday so no banks are working. I´am expecting loads of money flooding the exchanges tomorrow  
This would be a nice dip to buy...

Guys, if I'm reading their website correctly, they've devised a way to transmit bitcoin transactions directly over radio wave. No internet required. This is gonna be HUGE.

This is HUGE.

But it is more like a backbone link for remote areas rather than a direct uplink to make transactions.

These aren't radio waves, these are satellite signals! Holy shit this is huge, that means all you need is a view to the sky anywhere and you can send/receive btc with a smartphone. WOW.

No, not with a smartphone. It is a joke, isn't it?

I wonder what their strategy has been around launching satellites, and if they need to be single purpose built. Building and launching satellites can be a very expensive endeavor. I wonder if they could partner with a company like Globalstar, which already has something like 24 state-of-the-art, LEO satellites already in orbit. Globalstar (GSAT) also has an exclusive license on a good slice of spectrum in the 2.4Ghz band (11.5 MHz of spectrum between 2483.5 MHz and 2495 Mhz), and was working on a deal for terrestrial wi-fi.

I might be wrong but I don't think they have been "launching" any satellite but using transponders of already in orbit satellites. So yes, it is just a matter of deals.
