It cant be dead till people will hope in some worth of bitcoins. It is same like with "real" money now, you must hope that you can buy sometihng for them. So till there will be people with BTC shops, bitcoin will run probably. And these people you can see more day by day.

when the exchanges start going under that would be a rather clear sign it is failing. that would only leave users trading between themselves and at that point... well.. it has seriously declined and something to point at to say such.

but right now you can shop at many stores and the stores can get cash and all is well.

For a newcomer price doesn't matter really

You are definitely wrong on this. The first thing that attract people into wanting to know more about BTC is that its value, its significant price, no doubt about it and it has been some sort of measurement to measure if BTC is dead or no by some people indeed.
It is not about its chain technology and/or how secure it is but it is because of its value and to be honest most people will not even consider wanting to know about this thing if the price is only a few cents or lower (well it is not the same case with early adopter of course)

Yeah, as a newb all you care is making some money off BTC, but if you go a bit deeper you'll see Bitcon is interesting because it has an endpoint production so assuming the human race continues to be productive the currency should increase in value if it is pegged to the sum total of goods and services. Too bad most newbs will sell way too soon as soon as they get some BTC in exchange of some beermoney.

Current situation is bizzarre.
Bitcoin is slowly going to nowhere. it's the lowest price since last 18 months.
And most user just talking about same stuff "right,but 3 years ago price was 20 usd".

That's the main bullshit.

It remindes me when laser disc or dat comes out!
All people said "that's the future!!!!!!" price skyrcocked,then slowly decreas for years, and then cames out CD. Noon4 use now laser discs or even dat. Just cd's or blue-ray disc.

Bitcoin is in the same situation...a dead man walking.

Hope situation will change fast.

besides the fact that the last ATH was a pure manipulation, so one should not really count it as a real ATH, and the crash after it, explained it well, one cannot see a huge raise like that and then a crash that return the price to the original level

it's like we are starting all over again from april 2013

Too bad, people wont even go deeper for it because basically what attracts them are a thing that could help them to earn some quick bucks and thats all which makes the "value" became a measurement if BTC is dead or not. As a proof, you could check the entire forum on the question "how to sign a message from your address" , a simple yet outstanding feature that most people dont know


so one should not really count it as a real ATH, and the crash after it, explained it well, one cannot see a huge raise like that and then a crash that return the price to the original level

Sadly that has been a measurement for most people, whenever the value drop, people are saying it is dead but when the value is going up people are saying that it is bubble because of the "incident" on April 2013

Yes we want it to grow as we are the part of bitcoin community but we cannot afford to be overconfident as you don't know what future awaits us. So it is not dead at a moment but the future of bitcoin mainly depends on the level of adoption and if the adoption doesn't goes higher then it will surely die.

Bitcoin will not crash in long time I thought, too many people use it and too much interest is around it. There often will be huge fluctuations like this one, because it's a cryptocurrency. There's no reason to worry about crash now. Live for today

bitcoin is not dead and still alive until now even bitcoin price is pretty low now not but more people interested to use bitcoin everyday
and it is keeping bitcoin still alive maybe in the next 10 years

Its prices are down so everyone has started to believe that bitcoin is dead and the media is playing a major role in making bitcoin dead as they have the pressure from government to do so and people are very much influenced by media they just get carried away with the news without knowing the reality.

People should not think bitcoin is dead because it has a lower price. For a newcomer price doesn't matter really, he can just buy a bigger amount. It's sad if you wanted to resell higher, but made a bad investment decision however..

Yes for the newbie it is the right time to invest as the prices are down he can buy bitcoins in a bulk and hold it for a while and wait for the right time to sell it off. And if he holds for the longer period of time then i don't think that he need to invest anywhere else as bitcoin will make the life more comfortable in the future.

that is true..don't you think that media has played an very important role in killing bitcoin? Media now and then keeps on talking negative about the bitcoin which forced people to think that it is dying as people have faith in media more rather on themselves and people should use their own minds then following the media.

No doubt that is true that media has played an important role in it but they were forced by the government to do so and that is the reason banking systems are also against the bitcoin as the banking systems are regulated by the government and that is the reason bitcoin has lost its shine.

Don't blame the media coz they're only doing there job, blame it on the serial scammers and ponzi operators they have tarnished the name of bitcoin because of their doings and until now these scammers are on the loose to make more scam attempts in the future..

Yes they are doing their job.But are they doing in the right way?? Sometimes yes and Sometimes no. Even if it is a small news they will add fuel to the fire and then telecast it in front of the viewers to increase their so called 'TRP's" they just want to make profit out of it and there are many mistakes made by media itself while telecasting the news on TV.
