Been lurking for a while.
The microsoft news to us boys and girls already inside Bitcoin world is huge but it means bugger all to anyone outside.
We need new £$
This will come from
A. Institutions - Once we have regulations then institutions/ funds are allowed/ confident to enter the market.
B. Individuals - Once the press starts reporting people making big £ again then people take notice and take a little bet on bitcoin.
Current mainstream news = down down down, lose your £$ in Bitcoin
Main stream news after a slow steady 6-9 month bull run = Up Up People doubling their investment+ Get inn quick+ Sell the silver.
So there is no quick rocket to the moon we need to build some momentum for the main stream press to report on first.
Slow and steady wins the race to the moon!
Oh and yes I am an uber bull but look at the facts
1 The smartest people in the room (Bill Gates and Richard Branson?)
2 Side chains
3 ETF
4 Bitcoins to Bits (Gold Kilos and oz's)
5 The Foundation focussing ::)Core Development
6 Block halving
Who am I?
I work in web development in the Uk and have many friends from university and only 2 people know or get Bitcoin. We are the very early adopters.
Just a normal person in a normal job in the uk who read a story about someone buying a pizza.
Bulls , bears, we all want the same. More control and more time to do the shit we love.
Cheerio chaps!
