No doubt there's no buying pressure at the moment. Yet, people are more than willing to buy up a hell lot of coins for $540-$550-ish, so we'd need some high volume to get through those bids. The general sentiment seems to be that Bitcoin is underpriced at the moment.

Whoa what do you mean by that? The price is the measure of how valuable a Bitcoin is, isn't it? I don't seem to be getting what you're trying to say here. Please enlighten us, man ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Meaning that because a small part of all the bitcoins in existence are being dumped it is not represantative for the entire network, wich at first was a 1200$/BTC drugs favored ponzi scheme, now it has transformed into a 567$/BTC payments network with VC firms, politicians, companies and consumers supporting it. Meanwhile people have less and less reasons to complain that only a few people have a lot of bitcoins, that is if they are smart enough to buy.

Please enlighten us, man ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) The utility of bitcoin is the sum of the benefits derived from its applications by its users. The value of bitcoin is the size of its transactional economy over a given period. The price of bitcoin is wherever the market happens to clear. Only in the case of perfectly rational actors under perfectly efficient condtions will these three coincide.

Morning bitcoiners. Every day the next rally draws closer. A new world is coming. It doesn't involve middlemen.

Is that the reason why you became bullish on bitcoin now? Didn't you use to be a perma-bear? I can see how this makes you reconsider!

Could you phrase this in a way so a normal person can understand it ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) But I guess you're saying that Bitcoin got more useful for the people, right? Thanks to you and fonsie for pointing that out!

I don't agree, this is just delusional stuff you are talking, a value of a bitcoin is exactly what it can be exchanged for (in terms of goods and services) compared to what can a dollar (or gold, Euro, Yen...) be exchanged for. Edit: with this logic: gold has no value and a visa card have more value than a Bitcoin.... see this is just horseshit.

cashed out my last coins... I think this sucker will still crash even more, maybe I will buy back at 300 or less, or whenever it seems right.
Did you not sell? What are you still doing here? It's a Bitcoin Forum....

Not sure what a side not is, but it is my right as a bitcoin hodler to express my discomfort of the presence of a not-holder. BAM donkey kong ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) tuuuuut whoppa mmmm suc tech, power, oink EDIT: you missed quite the rise to 2000$ by selling too early.

No ... that is the PRICE of Bitcoin, not is VALUE, they are two totally different things (and WORTH is different thing all together again) PRICE is arrived at often where supply meets demand, and the demand of something comes from how much VALUE is placed on it by people -VALUE is usually quite subjective whilst PRICE is not. SUPPLY - DEMAND VALUE - PRICE PRICE is what you pay and VALUE is what you get. This is stuff people should learn in high school and I cannot believe this conversation is happening at all tbh

Never a bad idea to buy, hold, wait, then sell. With a long gap. Of course it depends, but for example, our favorite scenario would be to buy last year, and sell next year.
