Meanwhile, the price never actually recovers. It goes down and down and down.

You know there were people saying virtually the exact same things after the crash from 32 in 2011 and the crash from 260 in april 2013?

The people that bought at pennies and sold at dollars probably felt pretty smart about themselves at that point, and likely want to hang themselves now for pulling out too early

Not saying past performance is a guarantee of future results, but it's the best indicator and I really don't see this cycle being any different

Worst case it hits around 250 before starting to rebound, either slowly or quickly, but it will rebound

What negative news is even out there? The blockchain fork didn't kill BTC, MtGox's bankruptcy didn't kill BTC, neither did the SR bust or any other significant events

Every time there's been a dip with BTC like those occasions you mentioned, the only people really holding it together and stopping it going <$100 are dipshits like you that want to hold forever.

if you honestly believe this crash is the last one, and bitcoin is dead, then fine. but i will be holding through this crash as i have the rest, and continue to profit while you guys whine on image boards because you're angry you never bought any.

Haven't discussed buttcoin on 4chin until now. The only reason I would be bitter and salty is because I didn't get in when it was hovering around/below dollar-parity. But the way things are going right now, I'm predicting a Bitcoin meltdown as this free-fall continues to deteriorate its value.

There will be little inflection points that make it look like it's about to bounce back (as have already happened), but soon you will see it's true value. Take a look at this post (>>487874) and the ones below it: those are the graphs of the big exchanges that I posted earlier. Shit is getting vertical with the occasional false-bottom like I said.

Up until now, all of Bitcoin has been speculation. However, as adoption increases, it becomes less speculative and less volatile. People predict that it will reach a level of stability similar to fiat currencies in the future. I do believe Bitcoin will eventually reach that stage. I do believe that within half a decade or so, each coin will be worth >$10K and >$1M within my lifetime.

But right now, people are losing money because they sold their house/heirloom/cat for bitcoin at a time when it wasn't dirt cheap and was clearly capable of haemorrhaging. So as the price gets closer to where I'd be willing to buy for the long-term with guaranteed stupid gains and almost negligible downside, I am going to laugh and laugh and laugh.

I will watch as the VC firms, Winklevii, BTM manufacturers and people like you pick up the pieces of their shattered cryptocurrency, desperate to build it up again, too deep in loss to not want to make some sort of effort to repair its value. Of course this isn't the death of Bitcoin - it's the rebirth. The value will go to utter shit, I will buy and then I'll spectate as the aforementioned parties work desperately to restore value to my cheap-as-shit coins.

I a few years, you'll start succeeding. Adoption is increasing, people are warming to the idea and all that fuzzy crap. But you exposed yourself too early and the need to make back what you lost afterwards, in my opinion, will rival increased adoption/positive opinion as a driving force for Bitcoin's value after this storm. Too many people are up to their ears in Bitcoin exposure for the party to end after this. It will hit a floor - a very low one - and then people like me will pile in to make a fortune in the long-term as if the clocks had been turned back so that we could get another chance to buy Bitcoin at $10-$100 a pop.

A decade from now, you'll probably have sweated enough to rebuild what you lost and then some. I'll be the man on the moon smiling at all your toil for my benefit. Thank you, based anon.

This thread has given me so many laughs. You guys have really made my day, so thank you. I love you guys because every time Bitcoin plummets lower and lower you Bitcoiners all come out for maximum damage control. The air of desperation here is fantastic, I can almost reach out and grab it, that's how palpable it is. You have to admit that deep down in your hearts there is that lingering doubt that this may be it and that Bitcoin is on its last leg even though you shroud yourself in delusion. I can't stress enough how you make me feel better about my own life and my situation in contrast. I guess its the same fascination people get from watching train wrecks. Please don't change my friends. You bring comedy to the finance world and that stands for something.

Nope, I have no doubts like that.

Why?

Because I'm not from the financial world. I'm not a speculator. I'm from the tech world. And I know a ground breaking once in a lifetime technology when I see one.

The price could creep down to $1, and my long term view would be unchanged.

We're laughing whilst we wait for the price to properly crash. Then we'll buy in and watch Bitcoin slowly get back on its feet before tentatively climbing. Cash out before the subsequent correction. Buy back in and wait to see if long term growth is coming our way. If so, hold. If not, sell after a rise. The thing with getting the coins cheap is you (almost) can't lose.

I sympathise with that cause and in all seriousness, long term, you do not want to be touching Bitcoin with a barge pole right now. The next week or two at least are going to be a series of new lows with those occasional "it's at the bottom, let's buy again!" moments. I currently have ~$25 left on SR just as change from my last purchase. It's pointless going through all the tumbling and converting just to stop it from shrinking when it's such a small sum, but yeah, it's shriveling like a prune right now. The only ways you'd want to expose yourself to Bitcoin right now are through short selling and day trading.

Dubs. Also, that post makes it sound like it's merely going to be bearish for the next couple of weeks or so, but the reality is there's almost unlimited potential and likely downside right now. Read about the paradox of increased adoption killing Bitcoin right now, it's fascinating. I've also heard rumour that Rooskie's are dumping their coins as their government clamps down on cryptocurrency, so that could be a contributing factor as well. Anyway, we need to right this out before we hit the true floor and that could take anywhere between six weeks to the end of the year. In the meantime, just stroke your jimmies to the thought of all these socially and financially inept neckbeards who are having to ask their parents for more money because they tried to become millionaires by holding forever.

there was some guy who bought bitcoin when it was around 250 or so. he mortgaged his house to buy bitcoins. then they fell 100 bucks and he said he couldnt look his wife in the face anymore. A year later bitcoins went around 800-1000 or so.

Im not sure of the actual numbers here. I wonder if this guys wife left him for joe thundercock the electrician or if she stuck it out. did he sell low or wait it out? did he end up making it?
