I got into bitcoin in 2011 knowing that everything that happened till now would, the issue is I am unsure of what happens after the media catches on, does it go mainstream and do people actually start using it everyday, or is it another great idea that never catches on? is it time to sell? or should I hold till 10K? or should i hold till i do not need to sell?

To tame your fear: Sell 10% now, 10% when price has doubled and so on.

Don't know about every grandma using it to buy coffe, but cryptocurrency will bring huge change.

Loving your work Goat.

Someone has never heard of prison beatings 

miscreanity,

Wow, learn2PR.

Buying something at Walmart is good PR if you are a Presidential Candidate accused of being out of touch with the people, but otherwise... who can't just go to Wallmart and buy something?  so what, ho hum, no news.

Most people can't go buy a hot flashy car much less with only using secret numbers their computer made up.
It is way more interesting.  Sexy, crazy, cool.  Headline making.  Lifestyles of the rich and famous worthy.
As PR stunts go, it is a good play.
Houses bought with forgotten hard drives.  Lost Million dollar floppy disks in landfills, race cars bought with digital money.  Those are news.


Walmart accepting Bitcoin may indeed be a better thing for Bitcoin, but at the moment, it is somewhat more of a difficult hurdle than finding someone to sell you a car.

Thanks. You should've had way more upvotes.


If you hold dividend-paying stocks for the long-term, the price doesn't matter very much. If you trade for a living, price is all that matters. Either way, there's some level of exposure to the cannibalistic system.

So I don't care

A few months ago, I suggested that the USD$1k level might be the point where war would be declared on Bitcoin. It's starting to look like it has been. Both banks and gov't will protect their routes to conquest -- Bitcoin is finally being seen as a legitimate threat to their highly controlled regime of fiat and gold. Those plans will not endure intact, but having been laid down over decades there is a lot of interest in preserving those investments in time and resources.

Their downfall is that they don't see how the game is changing: it is no longer about exclusive domination, but inclusive collaboration.

Be self-sufficient and stand your ground, friends.
