Love it! Its booming, and passing big names like PayPal, it forces people to see Bitcoin as a contender in the "real world" because a lot of people still look at it like monopoly money. When really at this point it has so much long term value than even USD.

I get the feeling that soon it will be risky to invest in bitcoin even though it appears not only safe but sky rocketing!
When is the drop gonna come..? Wait for it.... Wait for it...

Really an important step. If news channels start to write about this stuff it will be like free advertising. People might start moving into bitcoin slowly and when the dollar shits there will be a massive influx I am thinking.

The amazing story continues unabated....but what people need to realize is that this rally is part of a wave which Sooner or later is going to correct itself. That should not discourage people and lead to speculations again. I have challenged in my blog that if one were to invest methodically in Bitcoin and some other selected crypto tokens in Aug 17and be patient with it till August 21, then you are bound to make a fortune beyond your imagination. These are exiting times and with a little patience and intelligence we can change our lives for good

Brace yourselves for the correction when it hits $5,000! Profit takers will come out of the woodwork and plunge this puppy $1,000 or more! And of course when it starts falling fast the "Herd Animals" out there will follow all the way to the slaughter!

kicks back and waits for the slaughter

@chefcryptoshark @crypto-ghost77 there definitely will be another major correction, the question is just when? Almost impossible to predict... if you believe Cliff High's predictions, he's set this at around $6700 or $6800. Personally I think it will be at least $6K until the next BIG drop. Sure it will correct a lot along the way there, losing a few hundred dollars here and there, but nothing drastic until then. Just my opinion :)

And in any case, no matter when it does have that next big 30 or 40% correction....long term is still bullish!! :D

Yes the market cap is huge especially when compared to a year ago. Some people say Bitcoin is a bubble and over-priced, but in my opinion its just that people are finally catching up and becoming aware of its existence. Even institutions like banks and top tech firms haven't been aware of it until recently. Laura Shin writes for Forbes and has been doing great work for years, and just recently finally got a cover story. Also with all of the hard fork drama news outlets put out stories about bitcoin trying to put out a negative viewpoint about it because negativity is the only way they can get headlines. But this has only put more eyes on Bitcoin. One of the top searches on Google this month is "What is Bitcoin?"

So considering that "What is Bitcoin?" is the top search on Google this month there is no way that this is a bubble. People are catching up and finding out about this amazing tech that will revolutionize the world for sure. The recent influx of cash has been documented and can be seen on the market cap charts as proof.

In other words, more and more people are learning about Bitcoin, seeing what it is, and investing. There are a lot of crazy people out there, but a silent minority is smart enough to see a good thing and latch on to it.

Really enjoyed your comment - just followed! Had no idea "What is Bitcoin?" was the top search on Google this month. With its meteoric rice over the last couple months people keep waiting for another major correction, but as you say with all the "new money" coming into the market, that hasn't really happened yet. I still think it WILL happen, as it always does, because with all the new money coming in, the newbies will see it hit $5K or $6K (yes, that will probably happen in the next few months or by the end of this year at the latest), and then sell. I think it'll still keep rising for now though...and even if it does lose 30% it will come back stronger than ever as it always does.

I know I went off on a tangent there! Yes, let's stay in the "silent minority" and latch on... I think you and me both are here long term ;)

I agree transacting in Bitcoin is way superior to Paypal MOST of the time. I'm also a big BTC holder and defintely believe in its long term potential, etc etc.

That said, I just want to point out that Paypal is better than Bitcoin for transferring money between domestic Paypal accounts (in the same currency). Just a few weeks ago, I wanted to pay a friend and I did it from my Paypal to theirs, the transaction went through instantly and there aren't any fees for that.

I (unfortunately) use Paypal a lot and I hate it. This past month has been horrible. I've had my money or other peoples money tied up in transactions for a week or longer. Transfering money from the bank to Paypal is slow, and vice versa. I can't wait til I can be rid of it for good. I buy and sell on eBay, so I don't know when that will be.

See my comment about the pros and cons of Paypal above @agneslaczo :)

I think the ultimate point - and in my opinion as well - is that Paypal isn't "terrible". It's actually really good at what it does. However, it can be thought of as the best of old, dot com era internet technology. Cryptos are Paypal 3.0. (Skipping the 2.0 ;) )

I think this is more or less along the lines of what @dahlsom said "PayPal has been around longer and uses a more familiar technology." ...would you agree with my above statement @dahlsom?

@brightguy - Totally concur with that, it's a love hate thing! As much as I echo Jeff Berwick and would love to see it replaced, it's just like fiat currencies....the way our economy (and in Paypal's case, ecommerce) runs right now, they are necessary evils. We'll still need to work with them until we hit that final tipping point into crypto. I've heard it's something like when 1% or 3% of the worlds' population uses it.

Also true that moving money back and forth between banks and Paypal is slow, I just meant that transferring money between PP accounts (or via Credit card with Paypal) is fast. Yep, I'm a big ebay guy too - former powerseller back in the day! :-)

PayPal has been around longer and uses a more familiar technology. Give Cryptos some time and they will be able to do everything PayPal can do and more. Investing in PayPal is also separate from using it... where Bitcoin it's much the same. All users of Bitcoin are also investors (at least short term). It will be interesting to see which one wins in the long run.

Nice to see bitcoin powering higher and higher.At this rate it will be 100K per coin in a few years just as many people have been predicting.Imagine 1 satoshi being equal to 1 USD, its gonna happen but no one is sure just when this will be. Thank you @jeffberwick for being a strong bitcoin advocate for so long and for all videos you share with us. Upvoted and resteemed

Paypal was a major innovation in regards to digitally transacting between businesses and their customers (and between friends and family)....so Bitcoin is just the next iteration along this path (with a WAY smaller transacting fee) #InCryptosWeTrust

one of the biggest reason for such high increase in price is thanks to hackers asking ransom money in the form of Bitcoin which made bitcoin gain free advertising in many national and international television news channels.

I think new Bitcoin users need to be made aware of the possibility of a Chain Death Spiral. If Bitcoin Cash becomes more profitable to mine than Bitcoin Core, and miners switch to mining Bitcoin Cash, then Core Bitcoin could become clogged with transactions with blocks taking longer and longer, which will make it less profitable, which forces more miners to switch, and the cycle worsens. In such a situation, it would become impossible to move your Bitcoin - you'd be stuck with a useless coin.

This can't happen to Bitcoin Cash because it has an emergency difficulty reduction mechanism built in if hashpower gets low.

@dollarvigilante In my opinion, It would be beneficial for paypal to partner with partner with many exchanges for the conversion of cryptocurrency to USD. Then eventually seg their way into their own blockchain and create their own digital currency. Otherwise, in the long term they will be left out in the cold especially since the China and the IMF will probably the first in on the technological revolution...
