Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Only checking personally once a day.

The brother is giving me a running commentary in great hysterical tones the rest of the time.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

I'm not loving this. For those of us who never knew you could turn $27 worth of Bitcoins into $800,000+ in 3yrs time do not care its now at $600 per share. It is too late for us, and no longer profitable unless it drops back down to the 2009 price.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Who says it has to go down 2009 prices. I bought in at the $250 range last summer. 100% Plus gains is fine for me. Those who bought in and didn't lose them early on got once in a life time gains.

Bitcoin just hit $700 USD. Wow. :pop2:

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Having extra mellow thoughts of kindness towards my brother.

He gave me some bitcoin in lieu of repaying some money he owed me.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

I would kind of expect Bitcoin to pull back a bit since it has run up so much. But with the upcoming halving event with regards to payout for the miners I have no idea what will happen. $1,000 Bitcoin is definitely a possibility by the end of the year.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Wow you called the BREXIT

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

bitcoins are here to stay. The momentum behind it is huge. The fact that I can send you $1 from my computer/smartphone RIGHT NOW is huge. Yea, there's a 1% fee, but no one keeps track of it (theoretically). When you send someone a payment through citibank, paypal, Western Union, or wherever, there's a papertrail...

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Anyone own Ethereum? Its starting to gain some momentum.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Well the Block payout to miners just halved. Will be interesting to see what happens.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Ethereum now supported on coinbase

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

$750 will see if it can hold.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Through $800

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

How is Ethereum faring?

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

To the Moon!

ETH has been down since Coinbase added it. Just grabbed some more. Not as sold on ETH as Bitcoin with its overall end game but I still like the technology and lots of Nerds way smarter than me putting lots of energy into it.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

That's crazy - BTC was around 275 when we first discussed this in July 2015....now 976...forget the stock market....

@vogeltron, nice stuff...you buy it on Coinbase?

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Yea, sadly I am not good enough with technology to use other platforms. Coinbase works good.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Well Vogeltron you missed by about $30-40 USD

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Brother still dreaming I might give him back the Bitcoin he gave me...

Two words... as if!

:pound:

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

BTC will continue to go up because the difficulty of mining is increasingly getting harder.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

It has done even better in non US Terms. At near all time highs in many currencies.

I do think there is a potential pullback into the $800 USD range. But the network and infrastructure is growing. It is Deflationary by nature and still most the world has no idea what Bitcoin is.

My prediction for 2017 is that Bitcoin passes Gold in value. 1 Bitcoin will be more than 1 OZ of Gold.

No other Cyprto has come to match Bitcoin given the Networking effect. I have said previously I have some ETH (Ethereum) but its end game I am suspect about. BTC appears to thus far won free market adoption and the infrastructure build by programmers.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

I think it may hit $1k today (new years) - its very close. At time of writing this post its at 994.8 USD per BTC.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

I was joking with myself my $1000 prediction was back in like July. It did cross over $1000 here in the states on New Years Day.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

US $1014.37 , yippee!!!

:pound:

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

1 Bitcoin equals 1070.00 US Dollar

This thing is going nuts!!! I would expect a pull back but the 21 Million Bitcoin cap this thing could go parabolic. Who knows!!!!!!!

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

1087 USD according to the search now - geez

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

1 Bitcoin equals 1133.11 US Dollar

Crazy vogeltron - over 15% gain in few days

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Ethereum, the BTC wannabe, has made a climb too

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

A rising tide lifts all boats

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

And breathe!

And breathe!

Watch for a sinking

:hail:

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Haha yea pullback was in order. Chinese Yuan gains pushed it down. Its weird how Bitcoin and USD seem to trade it tandem. They go up and down together. I think they are secretly married.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Reminds me of PayPal/eBay.

I decline to sweat the problems.

Just use to own advantage.

:bird:

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Just don't chase trends. I haven't bought any since the $300 level. I just like when it hit the news. Like anything people get curious about it. :cheer:

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

It's a waste of time

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

Are you ready to defend this 2-3 years down the line? I remember when people called Bitcoin rubbish at $20 in 2012 and I sadly listened to them.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

WOW!! Just finished reading this thread and it's amazing how the Bitcoin tripled in value while you all were debating it. What's even more amazing is reading a couple of you predict it's movement.

Re: Any Bitcoin or Cyrptocurrency enthusiasts?
 

I just bought my first coins. Yeah, late to the party but I wanted to get in before the Winklevoss ETF starts.

I think everyone should have at least 1. Its a currency that cannot be devalued by central banks and has a finite limit of 21 million that can ever be in existence.

The 3rd world is going to turn to Bitcoin in droves at some point when they get tired of their corrupt monetary systems devaluing their money. It will be very similar to how the 3rd world bypassed land line telephones, and those smart phones they are now using are an ideal means to transact in cryptography currency.

There are 1.48 trillion USD in circulation. Currently there are 16m bitcoin in circulation.

Today with 16m bitcoin you get 1 bitcoin = $92,500
Max circulation of 21m gives a single bitcoin a value of $65,000
