No, no reversal: you are pretty much the only person posting in the thread right now, LOL. Loved the videos though, especially the Wu Tang one.
Santander: Bitcoin could save banks $20bn a year <img src =http://cdn.meme.li/images/300x300/4876787.jpg> http://www.coindesk.com/santander-blockchain-tech-can-save-banks-20-billion-a-year/
pardon the silly question, but how are people buying and selling bitcoins? There seems to be a wide range of storing "under you mattress" / local drives vs using a service like coinbase or Circle. I am not the uber paranoid type, but just trying to see what the common methods are. Any guidance would be much appreciated.
coinbase/circle are the easiest, but they also follow all the reporting requirements to the government, if that sort of thing bothers you
thanks i just downloaded breadwallet after researching things, but perhaps I am one step ahead. Now I need to determine how to get the actual bitcoins and import into my wallet. Any recommendations on exchanges? Meeting someone up locally ruins the whole convenience factor.
elaborate? seems to me investment is still heavy...but you are not the first person to mention this. what am I missing?
Bitquick.Co Take hard cash to sellers bank branch for safe exchange Bitquick holds coins until funds are sent to sellers bank acct after which they are sent to your specified wallet Or coinbase/circle.. but you can stay offline with Bitquick
Don't listen to robbie.. certified thread troll who only serves the perhaps intentional but otherwise admirable role of devils crapvocate
My point is there is no reason to be buying it. It is a pure speculation play on price. If you have a need to use it then you can simply transfer funds and you don't have to hold the currency. There is no reason to own bitcoins other than for price speculation. It is not an investment. In my stock trader opinion I think bitcoin needs to show some kind of ability to have a sustained move upward and break the massive downtrend if you want to buy it. It is trying to put in a decent base down here, but in my experience stocks/charts/whatever that has had a mega speculative move to the upside generally retraces back to the levels it originally broke out from. Those levels would be closer to the $100 area. I don't trust bitcoin to have a sustained move higher, but the ultimate indicator is price action. There is strong support at $220 and strong resistance at $300. There is a resistance at all the major 10's of numbers between there (250, 260, 270, etc). The next test of bitcoin would be if it can maintain a price above the most recent breakout of 240. If it can then it may be a worthy trade to buy. That said it is nothing more than a trade in my opinion.
