As the article said, cryptocurrency transactions will drop but Bitcoin might be holding on as a payment technology alternative. A 50% Drop In Cryptocurrency Transactions This Year Is imminentHowever, a 50% drop is as bad as it gets. In the midst of left and right financing from companies who are now considering cryptocurrency as a potential option. Do you think this study is true? Aside from adoption, is there any possible way to help turn the tides for cryptocurrency?

who cares… Bitcoin doesnt care.. Bitcoin is not going to die. What are you worried about?
WHY THEFUCK ARE YOU ALL SO WORRIED about bitcoin failing. the smallest uptick in users will causes the price to go parabolic. Once a real word case of necessity is made, transaction volume will go through the roof.

If he really said "as proof" then this is complete BS.
Even if he didn't say that, it is merely opinion and no one can say whether it is true or not.

Actually, the study doesn't conclude bitcoin transactions will reduce 50%, it says the dollar amount of transactions will reduce up to 50%, which is a major difference. Here's the study http://www.juniperresearch.com/research/cryptocurrencyYou can find articles around the web with the conclusions.

Sounds dubious at best. All of a sudden in the rebound year after a bear market while all the fundamentals are building we're gonna see transactions slashed by half this year, doubt it by a long shot. It will only increase as time goes by and so many things will get better this year, including the price, that it's become laughable to mention otherwise. The fog is lifting and the sun is starting to seep through, the bull comes soon.

I'm not sure exactly what metric they use for their study as the explanation doesn't go into that detail or how they arrive and come up with that conclusion but one thing for sure, i believe with adoption rate on the increasing trend that should track towards the positive side. Not the other way round. Or there is something else i missed out.

Here's the study http://www.juniperresearch.com/research/cryptocurrencyYou can find articles around the web with the conclusions. Yup, that is way different. If people were using bitcoins to gamble and bitcoin loses half its value, the dollar value of bitcoin transactions would reduce by half too.

Here's the study http://www.juniperresearch.com/research/cryptocurrencyYou can find articles around the web with the conclusions. The whole report with all details (82 pages) is available for a cool £1,750! And you can't even pay with BTC! I think I shall start a poll. Does one prefer to buy 10 BTC or buy this report? My sincere opinion is that anyone choosing to buy the report should be lobotomized.
