Isn't the whole idea that bitcoin is fast and super-responsive to things? The bank and stock market runs are already happening. Why would bitcoin prices be slow to react if people were looking for a safe haven and bitcoin was such a great option? If anything, there should be preemptive buying that drives up prices by all the people like you who are telling us how bitcoin is going to skyrocket thanks to these types of collapses. And bitcoin has such a small marketcap that even a bit of extra demand by anyone with any real money should create a noticable price increase.
people saying a bigger blocksize will be a burden on private nodes have to realize that satoshi himself *itself?* intended for nodes to grow into larger more centralized operations
because people havent bought it yet? there aren't many of 'us' you know, we're a rare bunch.. to know these things its quite simple. when people do *get it* then it be very 'fast and super responsive' for you
a finite store of value has value due to inflation bitcoin would be responsible for a deflationary aspect to our economy.. making it more valuable... yes good logic
Let me rephrase.... Would be as pro bitcoin if there was no potential reward for you? Meaning I think you are only so wrapped up in bitcoin because you think there some lotto-esque payout in the end.
this has nothing to do with anything.. bitcoins highest price was a confluence of a variety of weird factors It just is what it is... if you want to gain in the opportunity ahead then you may choose to do so... I do so because I happen to recognize and understand the vast implications of such a technology... its not what "I think" may or may not happen. Childish for anyone to keep thinking this is about me. why are people so annoyed that I'm "wrapped up" in bitcoin... anyway.. is having strong intellectual curiosity such a rare thing these days?
I want to buy 100 dollar worth of bitcoins, how can I do this fast and simple. I'm willing pay extra if anyone is willing to do it via paypal.
doubt any Greeks are moving into Bitcoins. It's other Europeans seeing how Greece handles its debt and fearing their government may act similarly. That and speculators. Its kind of too late for Greeks to try and hide their money in bitcoins. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">If Greeks already have cash in hand, bitcoin is unnecessary.

No, its the pretentious douche part. And constantly sounding like one of those annoying door to door solicitors every post you make. Of course you did say you were involved in a pyramid scheme before so... lol. Bitcoin doesn't need a salesman or a hype man. Scale back a bit. Even if Bitcoin becomes the de facto standard for financial transactions, its not going to happen overnight lol.
