Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[adamstgBit]

The shift will happen when companies will start paying salaries in bitcoins.

If your last salary had been paid on Nov 11, the bitcoins you received then would be worth 4% less today.  But you could have paid your bills and filled your fridge on Nov 12, and that would have been as good as a 24% raise.

On the other hand, if your last salary had been paid on Nov 12, you would have lost money, no matter when you spent it -- as much as 22%, if you held it all until today. 

but if a bar owner prices a beer at 50Bits, you can drink your worries away, so what you're saying makes no sense.

BTW, I blame this little crash on Peter Schiff.

No doubt about it, he has produced 1st class FUD. Good man.

Wow. There goes my moonlight job as FUD-troll.

Wanted to post something uplifting for the bulls, and since Bitcoin news is totally no help, I found this (True story!):  
"Benjy the bull was going to be sent to the slaughterhouse for being gay has been saved by the actions of terminally ill Simpsons creator Sam Simon."



Don't give up guys!
Things could still turn out fine, you never know!

[Sharkie]

Nooo!  NOT Benjy!

Been lurking for a while.

The microsoft news to us boys and girls already inside Bitcoin world is huge but it means bugger all to anyone outside.

We need new £$

This will come from
A. Institutions - Once we have regulations then institutions/ funds are allowed/ confident to enter the market.
B. Individuals - Once the press starts reporting people making big £ again then people take notice and take a little bet on bitcoin.

Current mainstream news = down down down, lose your £$ in Bitcoin
Main stream news after a slow steady 6-9 month bull run = Up Up People doubling their investment+ Get inn quick+ Sell the silver.

So there is no quick rocket to the moon we need to build some momentum for the main stream press to report on first.

Slow and steady wins the race to the moon!

Oh and yes I am an uber bull but look at the facts

1 The smartest people in the room (Bill Gates and Richard Branson?)
2 Side chains
3 ETF
4 Bitcoins to Bits (Gold Kilos and oz's)
5 The Foundation focussing  ::)Core Development
6 Block halving

Who am I?

I work in web development in the Uk and have many friends from university and only 2 people know or get Bitcoin. We are the very early adopters.

Just a normal person in a normal job in the uk who read a story about someone buying a pizza.

Bulls , bears, we all want the same. More control and more time to do the shit we love.

Cheerio chaps!

Nothing new from Amazon really but a few hours ago I asked them (in german, translated below):

Hello,

When will we be able to pay with Bitcoins at Amazon now that Microsoft is on board?

Their response:

Good evening, Mr. <censored>

Thanks for contacting Amazon.de.

Unfortunately for the time being we don't offer the payment method "Bitcoin". Amazon.de accepts Visa, Mastercard/Eurocard and American Express (including prepaid cards from those brands) as well as direct debit and payment on invoice. Thanks for your understanding.

However, we do monitor the development, events and applications of new payment methods very closely. Customer feedback is also evaluated regularly at Amazon.de so we can adjust our processes to your wishes.

We're constantly looking to improve our customer's experience and to that end I have forwarded your e-mail to the responsible department and I thank you for your suggestion.

Should you have any more questions, [blah blah blah]

So apparently they haven't been bugged enough just yet, hence my call to all of you:

Send a message to Amazon, even as short as mine above will do the trick.

Don't try emailing them directly, you'll get a silly automatic reply telling you to use their pretty damn well hidden contact form while being logged in. Well here's the direct link https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/features-services so go on and tell them what we want!
