This is skewed greatly by the fact that their developer API allows you to create a fresh MyWallet for each customer that comes to your site/service. So this may just mean a lot of people are just signing up to a new service that is backed by Blockchain.info's MyWallet service but no necessarily a new adopter, let alone adding additional value to the market. Yeah, but it is still just one service, and even if only 1/4 are new adopters, that is 30,000 new adopters a month. To my knowledge, I had NOT registered any wallet on blockchain info until 4 months after I had been buying bitcoin(s). There are likely a lot of ways to get into bitcoin without creating a wallet with blockchain.info... so maybe overall, the number of 120,000 per month is an accurate roundabout and overall estimate for the number of new users per month? I believe that all the estimates remain that bitcoin adoption is increasing, in spite several downfalls and impediments.. but no one really knows the exact numbers, even though there remain several estimations...

I'm looking at the bright side, even if you just started acquiring your BTC you will still be called an early adopter 10 years from now ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) .

It's a trap. The problem is we can't use the 3D MACD when we are so close to the 1W EMAs because the 1W EMAs are crossed down. We need to use the 1W MACD. 1W is now the "long term MACD". ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FpPICuwP.png&t=665&c=V3M8rsaqCRD5Tg)

Note that those "Chinese Slumber" predictions are tests of a conjecture about the Huobi prices at late night local time being more predictable than prices at other exchanges or other times, or daily mean prices. They are not meant to be taken as trading advice; readers beware. That said, the prediction is at the top of the post: it says that the price at Huobi at the stated hour (~19:30 UTC) will be 2837 CNY, sightly higher than the last price at the same hour (2818 CNY). The method does not try to predict the price between those two moments.

You are looking at it the wrong way, addoption is exponential not linear. Once bitcoin appears more and more in the news and starts to go mainstream the rate of adoption will accelarate greatly. As I am sure I dont need to remind you btc is still magic internet money that a few nerds are playing with.

I've been debating the likely hoods of break outs with China reading the story Chicken Little. In conclusion if btc reverses we will know..stop debating on it everyday, play this trend of pump and dump as best you can if you see fit, but IMO have a position that will benefit you if and when the trains brakes' break off.
