The reason why its moving higher is because the general public is beginning to become aware of the run away inflation taking place across the west due to the corruption of the ruling class, who is printing money as if it were going out of style.

So does this mean that even if it's fucked in the long run, it's potentially a steady bubble to ride for a bit? They obviously intend to own 100% of the Bitcoins, so it seems like this would be the case. I've actually been messing around with bitcoin the past few days, I know I had 0.02BTC in 2014 and my wallet.dat has gone. Probably wouldn't be worth much but it's better in my (((wallet))) at the end of the day.

Question.

What happens if theoretically we get to the stage of true quantum computing where cryptography that would have taken the age of the universe to process can suddenly be done in realistic amounts of time?

How does mining work then?
How does one stop private keys being brute forced and having all your BTC stolen?

I'm not all up on the tech of bitcoins so maybe I'm being dumb.

I bought nearly 40 BTC at $330. I'm holding until it reaches 20k.

Nah, the money I spent on BTC would have been spent on a new car or something, so it would've been wasted anyway, so I'm sticking to my original plan of holding till 20k.

99% of bitcoins owned by Jews. They got the coins for free... so any price increase is them buying their own sale. "sell from account a, buy from account b." The liquidity is so poor that this can increase (or crash) the price instantly.

because the europeans are just trying to do what they did a few years ago with gold that they also tried with silver and lastly they tried with bitcoins

its a simple bait and switch short term investment strategy. look at how great X is doing. why are you so stupid lots of money to be made in X.
>then sell off after market or while another market is open

the reason it was less successful each time after gold was people caught on. you can watch the cash flow if you track all markets and know how to convert the wealth between units daily. its a euro trash scheme to save their collective asses and im not one for charity these days really. money goes to rich guys not starving kids anyways

I never really looked into BTC. I did definitely miss the boat on ETH, was following it around when it was 3-4 dollars and was going to get some but was too lazy. But hell, that's the whole point of an investment, if it's obviously going to make money, no one makes money

I actually remember when this shit first started. I even remember the thread on /b/ where someone was all 'hurr durr buy this shit' when I swear, it wasn't even $1 for a coin. Actually, I remember the night where it just kept growing from less than a dollar to hundreds of dollars. Well, maybe that's a slight exaggeration, but I still remember that night.

I even got the wallet and everything, but I can't remember for the life of me why I didn't buy any coins. I wonder what was going on in my life then.

One of the biggest wasted opportunities in my life. Goddamn if only I had bought a couple of thousand of coins back that very first night.

Fuck life man.
>>
How long until the US, China and the EU shut this shit down. I don't see why the heebs would tolerate fags getting rich from speculation (literally out of nothing). Getting 400000% return of investment in 5-6 years is completely unsustainable either way.
>>
>>137250806
Oh I definitely think it'll hit 5000 soon. People act like it'll drop to fucking zero when it does drop, every time. This is why I didn't buy any when I was on a shitty wage back in 2011 and I'm regretting it so much now. I have a much better job now (only £1300 per month but to me, that's pretty good) and I really regret not buying some. I'm tempted to buy a few hundred pounds worth on Friday but there's the whole gambling element to it. What do lads?

You have done a pretty good job convincing me here. Because you're right. I spend a lot of money on vidya and (((energy drinks))) because I work 50 night hrs/week at ASDA and its' the only shit that keeps me awake. I could even buy £500 worth but it just feels so dodgy. And even when I have it, I'll be constantly worrying about whether or not to sell it now or later. Fuck me, why do I have to be such an indecisive cunt. I think you're right though. I could actually do something smart with just a fraction of my money.

like any other fiat currency, people's faith in it gives it value.

It can be used to buy drugs and other "illegal: things and avoid tax so that also makes it of practical use to people

It will go on for a couple of years yet at least I think before there is any serious attempt to shut it down, which may prove very difficult for authorities.

The blockchain is kind of like a ledger of every transaction (ever). Sending money to someone is just adding a new transaction to the end of the blockchain. Anybody can propose changes to the blockchain but every proposal is mathematically confirmed by others before it's added, similar to a verification check.

It's not much different to recording everything in a book using pen and paper. There's lots of maths to stop cheating but that's about it.

It wasn't obvious that it would shoot up to 4k by now in 2015, that's why you didn't invest. If someone told you 100% that you'd x8 your money or whatever, you'd have done it right? Why would it be different now? There's always going to be uncertainty because it is an investment

I bought in at $25 and have held ever since.

There are actually two changes: the blockchain, and Bitcoin, and I believe it important to distinguish between them.

The blockchain is that which disintermediates and causes such rustling of central bank jimmies.

The bitcoins themselves are a single use of blockchain tech. Paying for transfers are already up at $5: what is the use case when paying is up at $500? Large transfers - buying a house funds, etc. Not buying a can of coke. Some other alt will do the can of coke.

I hold btc because I think people will want to conduct yuge transfers cheaply than buy cans of coke cheaply

I wanted to buy a few coins just as a gamble. I didn't buy them.
Their price increased and I regretted not buying Bitcoins. Welp, too late, I can't buy them now.
Then their price increased again. And again. And again.
Never bought them, and now their price is so insanely high you have to be insane to buy the fucking coins, yet it will still keep growing and next month I will be whining again about how I regret not buying them.

it is used as currency.
Not as much as for speculation at this stage but it does have some uses that make it a viable practical alternative to banks and their fiat debt money, that gives it real value.

Well done, be happy and free anon.

It's blockchain technology is simple and secure but limited for VISA type daily transfers

I think bitcoin might become the next gold as more robust cryptocurrencies replace dollars

One bitcoin might even be worth a million dollars someday...no one knows

Is it too late to start buying now? I've never had any money to spend on this sort of thing until now when I graduated and finally started working

what makes /biz/ so sure that coinbase won't end up like mtgox

>>137275892
no, it's probably better than putting your money in the bank or stocks and shares, but be careful and don't invest more than you can afford to lose.
hold on the dips, keep a diverse portfolio, sell off some profits into hard assets for protection against it crashing totally or being shutdown by authorities.
>>
>>137275892
wait till the next dip though

there'll be a profit taking correction in the next week or so I'd say, buy then.

too scared to ask on /biz/ but how does bitcoin raise in value so much over small period of time?
how does it gets its value?
when people say they sell bitcoin does it mean you can always sell it no matter what? and to whom? who gives you actual fiat money for bitcoins?

Just remember to pay your taxes when tax revenue will ask where did the money come from.
Because they will eventually.

bitcoin is just a testrun for cashless money the new world order is planing to do. this digital money is worthless value, they will present it as attractive to lure you in based on ur greed. then after you like it and made lots of gainz, they will chip it to your brain and you wont be able to buy or sell without it and become total slave and they can turn of your chip if you dont do what they tell you.

My friend just bought 100 dollars worth of it and set his account to buy 3 dollars worth daily from here out. He's been thinking of doing bitcoin for a while but the surge convinced him. Should i do it anons? How much do you think I'd make in like 2 years time doing it like he did?

Yeah while you're whinging and moaning and doubting others are getting free from the (((banks))) with this thing, more power too them.

I wish I had of earlier, I'd be very rich now if i had put a couple of hundred in when I first heard of it.
