Bitcoin Take?

Bitcoin disrupts gold
Ethereum disrupts financial services
There will be others...

What should I do? Sell or keep?

Hold it. Value is waaaay down. Wait for it it climb up a little bit then sell at a value you like.

At what price did you buy in?

I would sell it immediately while you can still get a decent price. This thing has nowhere to go but down. I gave this same advice earlier in this thread when the price was around $800.

So, why don't you put up a chart of the stagnating transaction volume using bitcoins?

Its tough to say. I bought some at 450. It's been hovering in the mid 3's for a bit.

I'd say hold it if you can tolerate the risk.

Litecoin mirrors bitcoin and is about 3 dollars per.

If anyone is wanting to play around cheap, litecoin would be a cheap way to get a little coin.


I am holding a bunch of different coins, but its just a fun long shot...I was playing around with mining for a while.

To be honest there is no real use case at the moment for an average American to use Bitcoin except as a purely speculative investment. That will change with time however as there is equal monies being pumped by VCs into Bitcoin startups as there were back in the early nineties for the Internet.

Now remittances in Mexico and Asia, the unbanked in Africa and as a store of value for Argentinians & Venezuelans. There is something to watch.

This thing is bigger than most can comprehend. I really recommend doing your homework, read the Satoshi whitepaper.

It's a noisy data series. Draw a trend line through the middle of it and you'll notice that despite more and more merchants accepting bitcoin, you're not seeing a commiserate increase in transactions which implies that it is still a niche thing and people are holding bitcoin with the expectation that they will go up instead of spending them.

your straight edge must be different than mine

I see a fairly noticeable upward trend from around 45k to 75k when you go thru the middle, and correct the outliers etc

and thats just over the last year

Noticeable and significant are two different things.

by the way it seems on the surface to be signifigant since the graph EXCLUDES popular addresses (the exchanges etc) and so represents mainly small user transactions, apparently
