The reward halving will help the price to go up
it will help bitcoin rise to $0.00002 from $0.00001 if bitcoin can live til there Why do you lose time here if you don't believe on Bitcoin at all? Perhaps a combination of bitterness about not buying in earlier, investments that would benefit from sinking $ value, and a total lack of anything better to do?

Yes, but cant blame him im about 70% BTC as well since the drop, floor seems to be consistent enough, lets see what bitstamp does to the price when they resume

Right now it's about 180$, this must have hurt (if he still holds coins and cares about price).

Sometimes, if it looks too bullish, it's actually bearish

Let's bump this thread in 2017, shall we? We can compare his bitcoin worth then, with what the house average appreciation would have been had he held on to it.

OP has disappeared, hope he is ok. Very bad timing on investing if true, think many of us lost some though.

Just to recap the facts... the home value was ~$400,000 and the OP traded it for 648 BTC
At the current pricing the OP now has ~$117,000 in BTC

Bitcoin is very risky and more volatile.
