rhetorical question, but you may vote for confirmation Just taking the first 10 topics: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion Major flaw of Bitcoin found 200 USD, the new support? Bitpay just processed its first 1,000,000 USD order, Dump incoming? BTCChina overtook Mtgox as the leader in volume BTC at $205? Should I buy into a rally? Parity watch -> El Salvador What will be the high (USD) from now until the end of the year? Zerohedge story on EBay and Bitcoin Professional Traders - Do you find speculating easier in cryptocurrencies? Gold collapsing. Bitcoin UP. My opinion, it feels like April again, price going up every single day by $10. But I think the difference with april is it's 6 months further now, a lot more users now, we are also used to $200 and from the topics quoted there is more concern than euphoria. My guess is we will go a lot higher to $300/$400, crash back to $200 by the end of the year. Fact: it certainly is not 2011! Bitcoin is acting strong! Litecoin feels more like 2011.

Most of those threads are either neutral, perennial, negative, or threads that always get bumped when the price starts to rise. Or were you talking about the content of the threads rather than the titles?
EDIT: Oh, you agree. I guess I'm confused what you're saying. To me the fact that the price is rising like this and sentiment is not bubbly at all is hugely bullish-seeming.

How Ripple Rips you: "The founders of Ripple Labs created 100 billion XRP at Ripple's inception. No more can be created according to the rules of the Ripple protocol. Of the 100 billion created, 20 billion XRP were retained by the creators, seeders, venture capital companies and other founders. The remaining 80 billion were given to Ripple Labs. Ripple Labs intends to distribute and sell 55 of that 80 billion XRP to users and strategic partners. Ripple Labs also had a giveaway of under 200 million XRP (0.002% of all XRP) via World Community Grid that was later discontinued.[29] Ripple Labs will retain the remaining 25 billion"

@sgbett and again, a process that follows an exponential growth must be plotted logarithmically to appear properly. And this definitely applies to BTC.

I'm almost certain we'll see double digits before 2016 and single digits are a possibility.

well we are constantly rising, that seems like a bull market, so we should be bullish! At $248, we are closing in on the ATH, if you can't be überbullish now, when can you?

When it was at $60? When there is more room to increase you should be more bullish in general.

Reasoning? There's no virtually no demand except speculative demand (buying BTC on the belief they'll be worth more in the future), the technology is immature and the economy is practically nonexistent. Actual use (number of daily transactions) hasn't grown nearly in proportion to the rise in price. There's a lot of wishful thinking going around in the forum. I'm not buying at these prices. Not selling either. I sold a portion of my coins in April for $192/BTC, and I do not regret that decision.

If we reach really high numbers the speculation possibilities goes down, and so do the btc price. I agree with you. But many will use btc for the real economy there is behind it and as a store of value, so i don't see it collapsing. In short, btc will always go up, on a logarithmic scale. What happens on the short period doesn't really matter.

Not selling either. I sold a portion of my coins in April for $192/BTC, and I do not regret that decision. I agree with your premises. Demand is speculative, technology is immature, underlying economy is small and transactional growth is linear. But the potential is so huge that it is hard to see even a 3bn US$ market cap as excessive. There must be literally hundreds of medium-large sized technology companies that are bigger than that, most of which have nothing like the potential of Bitcoin. I too feel slightly uncomfortable with this week's surge and doubtless it will crash just like in April. But even after this crash (and the next one and the one after that) I can't see any show-stoppers for this amazing innovation.
