Do you think there's any future in Bitcoin?

I'm one of the people that believes the price is dropping because merchants are immediately selling BTC that they are being paid in. Massively increases sell pressure without increasing buy pressure.

Look at around you, and not the chart.
Are you seeing more and more bitcoin services and companies popping up everyday ? or is it shrinking ?

Look at who is working on Bitcoin now, this is the greatest indicator of tomorrow's adoption.

This is legit. What matters at the end of the day is merchant consumer adoption. All markets are rigged, no exception. Whales manipulate it to get cheap coins, and pump it to sell more expensive coins. Price volatility is irrelegant. On a log scale, BTC only went up so went the % of adoption.

FIFY


More merchants accepting bitcoin will not do anything except make it easier to spend bitcoin that holders of bitcon already have. Consumer adoption on the other hand will increase overall demand for bitcoin as they will need to buy it in order to use/spend it.

Bitcoins act as seed capital, Bitcoins fuel and propel all the other crypto 2.0 technologies, decentralized companies, etc. It makes no sense sitting on Bitcoins. Bitcoins can potentially give you 1-10x returns over the next 5 years, keeping with inflation or not. But crypto 2.0 technologies and decentralized companies stock can potentially give you 10-1000x returns over the same period.

we need to bring btc to the mainstream

You can help by giving goods at services in exchange of BTC, while making a discount over other traditional payment methods. That way customers will be encouraged to use it. Like Newegg recently did.
