Why I believe a beautiful and very bullish Bitcoin storm is forming

[BitChick]

Most of you know that I am an unashamed Bitcoin bull and have been so for a while now, but I think we are on the verge of some exciting times.

This Bitstamp issue might actually be a huge blessing in disguise.  It comes on the cusp of some major advertising for Bitcoin with the widely viewed Bitcoin Bowl and a good presence at CES this week just to name a couple things.  Roger Ver is bringing some press on the main page of Yahoo today (and on Business Insider) indirectly for not being allowed in the US, but it is press nonetheless. And these are just a few small things on the top of my head.  With the price undervalued right now (which I believe firmly that it is) It won't take much for the price to rebound.

That said, I feel strongly it is "when" and not "if" Bitstamp resumes operations, the price will jump and it will surprise all these newbies on the sidelines.  When they see the price move as quickly as some of us know the Bitcoin price can move, they will decide to throw some money in because they don't want to miss out.  That is how these bubbles begin.  It will just build from there. People throw in a little money, they see how much they earn in a week and they throw in more and so it goes.  How high will the price reach this time? Well that is debatable of course, but easily back to the ATH we achieved before.

So I feel like I am watching a storm in the distance and waiting for it to approach.    Hopefully it is a tsunami and not just a few rain drops.

He will come back when the price rebounds.  I think the low prices depress him more than me even.

Your username makes me wonder why you chose it. Do you expect special treatment because you're a chick?

Or perhaps chicken is just your spirit animal or something...

[HeliKopterBen]

Well the bear market certainly didn't weed you out.  Notice I speak of bear market in past tense although there may be a possibility for 1 more slight new low, but the upside potential is huge.

two words. bitstamp hacked

You certainly have some strong faith in bitcoin. I just hope you don't go too far and you have a plan B for when (not if) the bottom falls out of the market. You seem to take things for granted based on your faith (ie. Bitstamp WILL re-open, and price WILL rally again) but there doesn't seem to be any catalysts on the horizon for such a move. There is no more momentum behind bitcoin like there was up until 2013, when merchant adoption was beginning and the silk road still seemed like a possible black market business model. Now people barely take notice when companies adopt bitcoin, China is out, and Ulbricht is behind bars (and his coins seized... so much for bitcoin being completely secure).

You're right that there is publicity, but most of it is associated with hacks, exchanges going under, and people who denounced their citizenship and trying to re-enter the country to pump their investment. Not a good image. Well, good luck to you.

Damnit, we were so close to bitcoin becoming boring.

I joined a couple years ago and there were even less females on this board then than there are now.

I think there have been times when I asked a stupid question and I have been treated a little nicer than some perhaps, but I have also been made fun of for my username too.

I agree and would add that whenever Lawsky gets his act together and promulgates his BitLicense regulations in final form, the least timid of the institutional investors and Wall Street will begin to dip their toes in the Bitcoin market. Given the size of their toes, this could cause quite a dramatic price increase.

I have posted this before but I agree that it is stupid not to invest more than a person is willing and able to lose 100% of.  Sure it is risky, but many investments are.  Hubby and I had our own business for a while.  That was risky too and we lost more money with that than we will ever lose on BTC.  Life is filled with risks.  It makes it more "fun" that way I believe.

It's certainly a return to exciting times.

But will the storm brew for weeks, months, or years?

Typically Bitcoin bubbles do not last very long.  Hopefully we have a repeat of 2013 though with a couple great months.  Time will tell.

That's what I thought and probably I'm not the last person who makes fun of your username. I don't approve people indicating that they should somehow be treated differently than the majority because they have something else between their legs than the majority. Last time I checked bitcointalk.org did not have dating subforum and thus advertising your gender in these forums seems inappropriate. While it's good to know that there are females in the community, asking for special treatment basically says that you don't want to be treated equally to men. The latter gets you in a pretty uncomfortable position, considering the hypocrisy in feminism. If this place was anything like 4chan, any reference to OP being a girl would get an instant answer "TITS OR GTFO".

Unless stated otherwise, basically everyone on this forum is male. So why are you so fixated on her gender? Just because someone has "chick" in their name doesn't equate to them asking for special treatment 

[Equus]

Yup.  Storm's a-coming


Also,  why do the threads started by girls never end up being about what is in the OP?  And why is nobody getting after spooderman, traderman, jimbotoronto, adam, Fatman3001, Ivanhoe, billyjoeallen or ThatDGuy for advertising their gender?

This place could use a chickstorm.

Because he's a sexist piece of shit. Look at his other posts, this guy is unbelievable. It wasn't long ago that he posted there should be genetic engineering on the human genome so that every man could have a beautiful woman and that all the beautiful women are already "taken"... maybe it's just because he's a total asshole and no one is interested in being with him.

Regarding females, same expectations here it's starting to piss me off that the beautiful ones are always taken. Am I the only one thinking that or is it a wide spread curse of all men? Shit we need genetic engineering of humans ASAP because every man should have a human right for a beautiful partner.

last time i've checked, bitcointalk.org isn't zoo or animal care forum, so hyena's should be inappropriate for these forums more than any gender humans don't ask for special animal treatment by calling yourself some animal.  maybe she is an alien trying to fit in with us humans and some animals ?!      
all of this is pointless bs

Aw jeez, I think you just jinxed everyone with this gut feeling of yours.

True.  It wouldn't be the first time I did that!  Granted, being a bull in 2014 was not an easy thing to be though.  I have high hopes for 2015!
