I'm proud of Bitcoin :).

I still remember 1 year ago when I used Bitcoin to buy some weed on silk road.
Now becoming main stream due Microsoft.
This is just the beginning folks. Blockhalving soonish. Great time to come.
I wonder when this bear market will be over.

Many are proud to use BTC as a primary sources of payment i think in the end of 2100 no other payment system will hold against BTC.

maybe Microsoft soon offers dope, who knows?

[thresher]

The Microsoft news has let me feel proud of bitcoin for the first time in a long time. 
All these major companies have ceo's that talk, team's of analysts, etc.  Whatever the reason is I am sure Microsoft would only adopt something due to the massive savings it offers them in transaction fees, convenience, accessibility, or whatever the case is.  I am pretty sure the people who make these decisions are a lot smarter than all these dumb trolls on here claiming bitcoin is finished. 

My fortune cookie I got at lunch says , "Be calm, like a giant tree in a storm."  So trust in food lol.

Yeah, the Microsoft thing was really great news for Bitcoin! Just look at how the price went to the Moon in a ro...

Uh, right, guys ...? The price went to the Moon, right? Just as it did with the Expedia-, Dell-, Overstock-, PayPal- and other "good" news of large merchants "accepting" Bitcoin ...?


  

I'd be very surprised if we're not sub 300 on January 1st 2015.

Since the transaction is done through BitPay and subject to their fee, whatever financial gain (savings) they may see on a per transaction basis is likely not massive at all.

Microsoft did it primarily for two reasons...
1) Positive PR - gives the public the impression MS is forward thinking in 'keeping up' with innovation
2) Never be negligent in opening a potential avenue for revenue when the cost to implement a new payment option is practically nothing

I was quite surprised to hear Microsoft got involved in bitcoin. But then again, i have heard a lot of surprising news from them lately (open source, cross platform .NET framework?!)
Then again, it's a smart move, ofcourse, since it's yet another way to let people pay. The more the better, and they don't have to make their hands dirty, so to speak, since the payment is done via BitPay.
I hope many more large companies like this will join in the near future. Look at Dell!

The media seems awfully silent about these things though, even though it's pretty big news. There was a "hype" for bitcoin in my country half a year ago, but it seems the media has absolutely no interest in it anymore.

According to the interview with the Microsoft CEO, it looks like they will start accepting BTC for everything they offer in every country within a year or two max! That's a HUGE thing!

Bitcoin is finding its real price , after that it will boom again like the 3 other times before.
If you don't have trust in bitcoin why are you even here ?
Maybe you bought in at 900 dollars ?

The news of Microsoft hasn't been the biggest one yet. I was expecting more from Paypal to start and integrate bitcoins in their system.
Currently, I see no services offered by them for it.

When the bear market is over, the price will pop up to a new ATH and crazy prices fueled by inflation and dreams that will actually have a chance of becoming true.

well there is hope for bitcoin it will change the life

Oh yea??? Who will be happy to pay you $1,200 per coin??? The poor & oppressed "middle class" that has been pushed to expand the lower class?

Face fact's bro this scheme is in its final stages... More people cashing out everyday & no new money coming in... wake up for your dream world fantasy!

The price is lower than what it used to be but Bitcoin is strong and will rise in price in a world where big fiat currencies will lose their value. 3600 new coins are created everyday and some of them end up on the market for the miners to pay for their maintenance costs but higher prices mean they need to sell less coins.

   Is this supposed to be some sort of cultist echo chamber, where only bulltards are allowed? Do you want this to be a copy of /r/bitcoin, where critical posters are banned?

I'm here because I'm a student of religion, and I find the Bitcoin Cult fascinating. I'm also here to warn newbies against this imploding pyramid scheme.

I bought in at $740 in mid November 2013, and sold at $1100 a couple of weeks later.

We are a part of this new *monetary* revolution , it is only a question of time ... and we will be victorious.
