    But the current downtrend seems really clueless to me because market is not flooded with bad news.

    You are right, but small sales of bitcoin with a very large number, there still happen a lot in exchange accounts since two days before Easter. The FUD in recent days is undergoing a quiet period, but I'm still very sure whales still do still manipulation actions against bitcoin.

    Positive news about BTC

    Newegg Expands Its Bitcoin Payment Option to Canadian Customers


    Major computer hardware e-commerce site Newegg is now allowing Canadian customers to pay for products with bitcoin. Newegg primarily sells computer parts and consumer electronics. The majority of Neweggs’ customers are located in the United States, which has been the only group eligible to pay with Bitcoin until now. They started accepting payments in bitcoin for US customers in August 2014. Newegg has over 36 million registered users.

    The company cites ‘increasing mainstream awareness of cryptocurrencies’ as the reason for the expansion of the payment option to Canada. Newegg’s CEO Danny Lee made comments about the development:

    “IN 2014 NEWEGG WAS AMONG THE FIRST MAJOR COMPANIES TO OFFER CUSTOMERS A BITCOIN PAYMENT OPTION. SINCE THAT TIME THE VALUE OF BITCOIN HAS SKYROCKETED AND CUSTOMERS HOLDING BITCOIN HAVE CONSIDERABLY MORE PURCHASING POWER. WE BELIEVE THAT THE TIME IS RIGHT TO BROADEN OUR ACCEPTANCE OF BITCOIN TO CUSTOMERS IN CANADA.”

    Newegg uses a third-party payment processor, BitPay, to convert coins into fiat at the time of transaction. BitPay receives a small commission fee for this service. BitPay’s CEO Stephen Pair also commented on the news, saying “We’re seeing a lot of traction in Canada, and we’re happy to see Newegg extend its bitcoin payment option north of the border.” Newegg uses BitPay’s API for creation and management of invoices, bills, refunds, and other services. They have praised BitPay for its excellent service and noted that they have provided ‘unrivaled reliability in the industry.’

    The news comes as other online services have recently stopped accepting bitcoin as payment due to rising transaction fees, most notably Reddit and Stripe. Increased usage of the Bitcoin network leads to increased transaction fees. Moving forward, it will be interesting to see whether Newegg and other online retailers begin to accept cryptocurrencies besides bitcoin as payment.

    This information is very useful for people who want to shop for electronic goods using a bitcoin payment system. Hopefully more and more online stores that accept payments using bitcoin either directly or through third parties like BitPay especially I look forward to Amazon to be able to follow Newegg in receiving payments using bitcoin because it will also make a drastic increase of the current bitcoin price movement decreased which is very boring.

    the manipulation is so severe that bitcoin had just recover 5% of its lost, I really think this is not enough or we can not still see the potential positiveness of this news because of manipulation from many whales and so we can not still see the real deal for bitcoin value, But as time passes I think that many are doing their part in making bitcoin value huge again, I really think this is only the beginning for this year and it can continue every month passes.

    You can't expect bitcoin to respond in a positive manner only because a company has decided to adopt bitcoin as a payment processor. Especially when the operation of this company is limited to Canada only. If it had been Ebay, I would have expected some impact because Ebay is a global company.

    But the current downtrend seems really clueless to me because market is not flooded with bad news. Instead we have lot of positive news floating in the market. Along with Germany's adoption, the G20 summit also signalled positively towards cryptocurrency.  So I am failed to understand why the market is reacting so badly and going down constantly!

    Probably someone can shed some light on it.

    You are right we can not expect only the positive side for bitcoin and I am not indicating that I am just considering all positive things, Because of what is happening with the value of bitcoin, But still a negative outcome can become a positive sign for certain investors that strongly have faith in it that we can recover from this dip And like this post have indicate,

    Quote from: theyoungmillionaire on March 31, 2018, 04:47:18 PM

    I think there is something to do with “2018: The Year Central Banks Begin Buying Cryptocurrency”. Central Banks play a major role in the financial system they can manipulate cryptocurrency market so that they can buy more cryptocurrency at low price. What do you think?

    That the downtrend had started after this news that central banks had really done something about it and started a bull run, Now they are starting a bearish market.

    That's good news. I believe in the bright future of Bitcoin. There's a lot of bad news lately, everybody's tired of it. It's time to change course in the opposite direction.

    With a payment system that uses such cryptocurrency can be an effective tool to convey the positive news that bitcoin is safe. Hopefully, this can remove the doubt of most people who have not trusted cryptocurrency.

    Financial institutions are lobbying and do everything they can to give cryptocurrencies a bad name. Negative news about the IRS wanting to tax even the smallest cryptocurrency transaction, what does not make sense. All this FUD keeps investors away from cryptocurrencies and that's why we see all the prices declining. But this will not go on forever, bitcoin will rise again.

    The positive news about bitcoin is online payment system now accepting Bitcoin as one of the payment. Due to the FUD the price is reduced. But this is temporary. Soon the price of bitcoin cross 10,000$.

    Okay so you telling us that Canada located business Newegg is spreading the bitcoin eggs everywhere. But after reading your post I realised that most of the customers for this business are coming from the US based citizen. But do you know that US is country where legality issues are still up and they seem to be happy about it. Recently they have strict regulation on the ICO too and have banned many of them.

    Also, for it to be a good news, it has to be published all over the world an the business itself should be very big to effect the price movement or market cap movement for instance. For example, MAC and Microsoft are going to use the crypto currencies!! Then that would be finest news in the globe and then you will see how the market will move upwards.

    It is good to hear about this good news. There have been too many fuds around and market seems not responding to good news. Hopefully the market will recover soon.
    It is just normal after all, bad news & drama are selling point for every news agency, website or media in general.
    This is why we need to take additional time and effort to find out about every positive news to present it and share.
    Most of the time people interested in BTC are bombarded by false news, FUDs or drama and have no idea about the bright side of BTC.

    They are using Bitpay as a payment processor, so they are not exposed to any change in bitcoin value, they receive payment in their fiat currency. This is how things will work in the coming years, there will be an interesting competition between existing and new payment processors that will facilitate bitcoin payments and adoption.
