Yeah It must be that selling pressure is causing the new highs ;) LOL

So short from ca 17,000 and intend to maintain however high it goes? You may be right in the end but it could be a very painful ride if you have big position. Whatever you personally think of BTC the price on my charts is still going up. GL.

Good that you back your opinions with a trade. I also think there will be major crashes just a question of when and how much you lose before we get there. For the moment I'm long. You short from fixed level and trying to maintain or trading in and out with momentum?

FWIW I may regret it but sold equivalent to original cash investment at 16,000 yesterday. Bought in at 2,000 few months ago. Not sure what is going to happen next week. May buy back at 10,000 otherwise just hodl :)

I agree it is not design for trading but interesting as one of few central banks taking serious look at electronic currency as replacement for traditional.

Hoi - As someone who seems quite knowledgable about bitcoin and been involved for years what are your thoughts on the following: - When forks occur they don't change the fact that there will still be maximum of 21 M BTC. Is this hardcoded or fixed in another way ? What they do is spin off a new...

Read this proposal from Swedes central bank http://www.riksbank.se/en/Financial-stability/Payments/Does-Sweden-need-the-e-krona/Reports/

Really? You knew at 2000 it was going to the moon but did not buy any because you want to sleep at night. Does not make sense to me. You could risk small percent of total and still sleep easily.

Satoshi dumping his coins or coming out as the NSA might do it.....

Neke. I like your posts and you make some points here but when will that happen? In the meantime onwards and upwards. BTW - if you look at the origins of BTC there is a reasonable chance it was crested by the NSA anyway. May have encryption backdoor to catch the big fish and / or prelude to...

It's worth what others will pay for it. Currently thats about 15,000 usd. Hardly worthless.

It will change to small percentage fee per transaction when all BTC mined. Who cares about the electricity bill when the BTC reward easily justifies the mining cost :) Another day onwards and upwards. Suspect buying now to dump on the public next week when becomes easier for them to buy.

S2007S - Not often I put people on ignore but congrats after so much nonsense you one of the few!

johnarb - was at a conference with professional scientists last week (everyone with graduate degrees, computer literate some of them computer modellers). Average age maybe 40ish. Nearly everyone heard about BTC, many know details, mentioned often at lunch or coffee breaks..... but few actually...

Bitcoin was first, more well known and most quoted by the media but Ether is more efficient for transactions and more versatile. Code written some years after BTC. I have some of each since its possible that Ether is the Facebook to bitcoins Friendster (or bebo or friends reunited etc). I will...

But is it Nasdaq 1999 or 1995 with lots more to go that is the real question? Since its still quite hard for the dumb joe public to buy I'm guessing more to go. Once my dad starts buying I'm out :)

I am guessing banks, funds etc are buying to sell to clients in few months when more products come to market. As long as it keeps getting more accessible to buy, more publicity in mainstream publication, then just hodl ;) In many ways Ethereum is better, just not as well known..... yet.

Seems so. Bit of extra volatility for first day it gets above 10,000. Maybe expected with all the publicity and round number sell target. Then parabolic curve continues..... Another Barrons article to draw in more money from the US middle class...

One is a plant the other is not :wtf: Seriously they have much in common but some differences. Figure it out.

Yeah so buy BTC or Ether fund via stockbroker instead..... and you also don't need to remember keys ;o)
