Been hodling since 2011. Haven't sold a single BTC since then and probably won't until we see a new ATH at least.

Some more bad news to add to the FUD.

Reddit Is No Longer Accepting Bitcoin As Payment For Its ‘Gold’ Membership.

Reddit Is No Longer Accepting Bitcoin As Payment For Its ‘Gold’ Membership.

It's crazy how people are driven by FUD.

They don't see the big picture.

The only news that seems to have a reason to me are charts and those graphs that picture the adoption, surging, uncertaintment phases of cryptos throughout these years.

We are into an evolution process, the only thing is understanding the timing to invest/make gainz or just hodling, not whether or not leaving. Blockchian is here to stay.

Of course, going all in one crypto could be riskful.

The big picture is that real world adoption of bitcoin seems to be going backwards not forwards.

I'm not denying the current state of things but it's because blockchian and BTC has been noticed and attacked by mainstream markets and media after a golden 2017. It's just a bunch of months.

We should wait way way more before claiming these catastrophic statements. By the way, BTC is not meant to become the definitive payment method but more a store of value, at least for now, whereas some prominent cryptos could become a reliable payment method. In the meantime there are donzens of startups and services that are switching into the blockchain market.

In any case, it's early to say that it's the end.

...BTC is not meant to become the definitive payment method...

That's not true. BTC is not complete if we can't use it as a payment method.

BTC had problems because exchanges were spamming the network by not batching their transactions and many of them are only recently upgraded to segwit.

If you can't pass your bitcoin to the next person to get something in return, its no better than tulips.

To achieve these problems and stay as decentralized as possible, bitcoin/lightning devs created the Lightning Network but its still not fully adopted yet. (because its in beta) So we can expect even more growth in the future.

I agree bitcoin was suddenly being described as a store of wealth when it failed as a payment system due to long confirmation times and excessive fees.

Even if bitcoin went to 0 it wouldn't matter. That tattoo is a memory of a cool moment.

I think I myself will always feel a little bit of affection for the little guy.

Disagree, there were both people interested as a store of value and people interested in it as a payment system from the start.

I said "at least for now". The time will tell us whether it will be a reliable payment method or not.

At the moment BTC is treated as a store of value or speculative asset, if you want to move a lot of money among cryptos and speculate, you have to trade them and the opposite is true as well.

wow 1.234k buy order on bitfinex at 7100

woops... guess it was fake.

Could be real but often are fake and moslty are used for certain strategies.
This is typical Level 2 gaming, spoofing and pushing others into a trap. Big margin traders do this a lot.
Watch orderbook on Bitfinex for a whole day on you will recognize this.

[JayJuanGee]

Seems like we have a bitcoin dilemma going on, no?
