How can we know if the SegWit is slowly being implemented or planned upon as based on what you've claimed OP? The current recovery does not justify anything at all. I believe that it is just a result of an opportunity given to some people to buy more Bitcoin at s lower price, hence the price went up and recovered a bit.

You might be right that this is just a bear trap. We are on a bear market so this is possible. Anything can happen upon the activation of Segwit. The end result will decide whether the price will soar up or dramatically crash.

Nobody with even half a brain panic sold, it's always noobs & retards who fall for all the FUD crap. Just HODL for another few years, bitcoin will do what it's done long term, throughout its existence - RISE
I think the same - considering bitcoin's history holding Bitcoin is probably the best option overall.
Recently I heard that some speculators voiced an opinion that bitcoin's price won't be rising forever and soon we will reach a limit of the price or even backwards trend will appear.
I think that selling portion of your BTC and cashing out part of your stash would not be that bad, after all, we don't want to wait forever to collect fruits of our labour.

Sadly, i'm that one weak hands when seeing the price of bitcoin on that day. I sell all my bitcoins immediately when the price going down, because i'm afraid that the price of bitcoin will go more down. The price of bitcoin is really strange though, it can easily decrease and increase af.

At the time you choose to invest in Bitcoin, you should understand and accept the risk that the volatility brings to the table. Obviously, you didn't accept the risk, and don't understand how this market works. May I know at what price you bought your coins, and at what price you panic sold them? One thing you must always keep in mind -- whatever short term fluctuations the market is going through, and whatever percentage the price decreases, it won't affect you in the long term. Everything that happens is purely short term. It's sad that people still don't see that.

Return ? What do you mean return ? I never left. I watched the cowards for and bought their coin and flipped a profit.
The weak feed the strong. Have faith or don't collect Bitcoin . In the future it will be worth mutiples what it is now so selling is a bad idea.

Few people understand what you have stated here, mostly people are afraid of august 1 and some of them are selling their coins at low price. What we should do is to stay calm and hold our coins, soon the price will rise again after august 1.

Yes it's indeed surprising many thought Bitcoin will drop back to $900 below because there's a lot of fud coming to the August 1 segwit but, Bitcoin has already been here and it always bounce back we hope it will stay this way going to August 1

I have looked over several threads here at bitcointalk, and it looks like SegWit is slowly being implemented (or planned for, or whatever) AND the price just ticked to (about) $2300, some $450 (or more) off its recent lows.

This suggests to me that confidence is returning to Bitcoin.  

But, this might be just a bear trap, especially if anything goes wrong around August 1.

The recent drops of bitxoin where probably due to the pre segwit anticipation and also FUD. The threads on this forum alone with like the title 'segwit will kill bitcoin" are uncountable. But now due to random surveys, segwit seems to be rising. The prices are also stablising and returning to their former glory. People are starting to believe in bitcojn once again.

Bitcoin, like anything else, is subjected to market forces of demand and supply. It is natural for the price to fluctuate a bit, but the long-term trend is growing, so seasoned investors never lost confidence in Bitcoin in the first place.

The main attraction of bitcoin is its dynamic pricing. That's the reason why traders like this coin so much. When the price gone down past 2000 USD, it triggers a global alarm and people started buying heavily. The result is pretty clear and the market cap also gone up to 39 billion from 33 billion day before yesterday.

6 billion USD increase in a day or two is a big thing and I am sure many people like me are positive towards the future of bitcoin. A little confusion is still there about August 1st but I think bitcoin price will touch new heights after complete segwit implementation and will become an unstoppable coin. So we still have time to buy more.

It suggest nothing, its just market variation.
It can go either to $3000 again or dive to $1000. You can't guess if segwit will boost price or beign total failure.

Recently the price of bitcoin has been falling mostly due to the people who are believing in all the FUD that is spread around. People also are selling to add to the falling price and rebuying at a lower price later on. Now price is rising since all the FUD is gone and how Bitcoin is growing.

About the bear trap, I hope that's not true, since August might actually bring some good to Bitcoin and pump up the price a bit.

Bitcoin, like anything else, is subjected to market forces of demand and supply. It is natural for the price to fluctuate a bit, but the long-term trend is growing, so seasoned investors never lost confidence in Bitcoin in the first place.
Yeah, I agree, the prices do tend to fluctuate and that is expected from Bitcoin.

There are still many people who believe in bitcoin. As long as there is someone who trust and is confident with bitcoin, it will continue to rise for sure. I agree also that some people are selling their bitcoin before it dump so that if the price of BTC become lower they will have funds to buy more bitcoin.

Only the weak hands jumped to sell their coins immediatly. Others have taken the opportunity to buy cheaper and are already making profits. Remember last month? Exactly the same situation, and exactly the same panic and exactly the same come back.

Sadly, i'm that one weak hands when seeing the price of bitcoin on that day. I sell all my bitcoins immediately when the price going down, because i'm afraid that the price of bitcoin will go more down. The price of bitcoin is really strange though, it can easily decrease and increase af.
Yup, an entire sell off is wild, it was obvious a lot were hedging with litecoin, prices on litecoin we're going up when BTC was dropping.

Litecoin and altcoins were dropping along with BTC over the weekend during the sell off.

I would say confidence is returning to Bitcoin when Bitcoin dominance in the cryptocurrency space crosses 80%.
We have seen a huge fall and it is still below 50%.

You might be right that this is just a bear trap. We are on a bear market so this is possible. Anything can happen upon the activation of Segwit. The end result will decide whether the price will soar up or dramatically crash.
The market gained confidence because miners have finally woken up and done the right thing they were supposed to by supporting/signaling for BIP91 (avoiding the chances of a chain-split, and eliminating the FUD). BIP91 reduces the chances of chain-split dramatically, achieving the consensus of implementing SegWit with only 80% of mining hash. currently, 75% are signaling BIP91, and 15 blocks are mined signaling it. It needs only 269 blocks mined in the upcoming 336 blocks, before activating.

You can check it here: https://coin.dance/blocks
Also read this to get a comprehensive understanding about BIP91: http://www.coindesk.com/coindesk-explainer-bitcoin-bip-91-implements-segwit-avoiding-split/

We need to lock in segwit, once we lock in segwit then it's a done deal. But do't be too happy about it, because FakeSatoshi and Roger Ver + Bitmain camp will be back for Christmas trying to hardfork into their garbage. I predict it will be another defeat because only idiots will support ChinaCoin.

The price has recovered nicely over the last few days, much to the delight of those who were so worried that the slide would continue. But that's just short term and the price for the long term still looks pretty attractive with more room for growth, despite the uncertainty of what lies ahead in the coming weeks or months.

It seems the price of bitcoin is rising again though many got panic and sell their bitcoin in the last few days, but starting yesterday the price of bitcoin goes up again which I think a good sign that returning to bitcoin investment will benefit us and will give higher returns.

Well, I will be happy enough if we get a few months of respite from bogus characters trying to hijack BTC and ruin what has become a reasonable asset (yes, volatile and speculative).

Maybe ChinaCoin will not happen if the community finds the likely SegWit(2x) implementation to work out well.  If they DO try to bust Bitcoin, then they will lose along with most of us...

Thats right I think many people until now confident with bitcoin and thats good to us because even they have doubt about bitcoin they still believe in bitcoin. As of now the price will recover again even last few days ago the price decrease and I believe even the price of bitcoin down on the day of august 1 it will recover again after few days or after few weeks.  Those people believe in bitcoin its better if you hold your bitcoin.
