I see people talking about the lack of interest from Joe Public and how that means the Joes of the world will not pump the price. This appears to be true. And This Is Actually Good News™.
It's never the average people who are at the forefront of innovation. The next bubble will be fueled by smart money. Frontrunners. The kind that frontruns other kind of Big Money. This is also why the price hasn't gone up already, they know how to accumulate without raising the price.
After that, the laggardly kind of Big Money will pump us further. And then eventually, with safer and easier ways to store coins available, Joe Average will start buying in - after a lengthy media hype campaign.
Patience. This is still very early days.

What? Can't you see the massive contradiction here? First, you're claiming that smart money will fuel the next bubble. Then you go on to claim that smart money are accumulating coins without raising the price? ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

I can agree with this! The average trader buys in the 5th wave, which happens to be right before (relatively speaking) the big crash where they lose their money. The next big hype bubble (which is actually still in the same large bubble since 2011) will be the top of wave-III so this is absolutely not the average traders yet.

hey could you explain this a little further? I would appreciate it This has to do with Elliot Wave Theory, so if you want to hear no more, then just ignore it. You have waves. Then you have subwaves the make up each larger degree wave. The 2011 bubble was wave-I (roman numeral 1). Then there were a couple of rally's through 2012-2013 which were subwaves of the larger degree wave-III. The next higher high (above 1163 Bitstamp) will be the 5th wave completing that larger wave-III. We will then have a bear market that will put this one to shame. I'm talking about a year at a minimum. In the chart below, I used a monthly bar. You can see that it has been one large bubble with corrections along the way. While we live it, it feels like individual bubbles because of the time that seems like it's not in a bubble, like now. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Fy1plwgr.png&t=665&c=7PX_M-cqA8ldng)

They will do very little at the beginning of on-exchange buying, and let the hype pull people in to do the real work.

Mr or Mrs Public eventually does what the deepest pockets wish them to do. They just make their favoured option the hardest to resist.
None of the technologies that we've all embraced ever originated from a tidal wave of public desire. It was presented to the masses by some very clever back room folks.
The question is whether enough of those pockets will ever wish to get behind crypto in meaningful way.

Every day new companies rise up and the adoption goes on. Even if the absolute exchange rate would go down the adoption goes on. No need to repeat all that news about Afrika, remittance market, Overstock, Expedia, Bloomberg, Winklevoss ETF and so on ... at some point simply the market demand will be there. Currently China seems to be a driving factor. But that will swap and real mass adoptions starts. What a nice world where nobody can take the money of somebody else just by force. Where you can buy worldwide with one currency within seconds. Where you do not need a purse to carry a collection of exchange coins around. ....
