Bitcoin values bounce back approaching $3,000 per BTC, but before you jump for joy, Forbes published an article suggesting the fall of this virtual currency. The article uses the analogy of a bubble that’s about to burst.
“Every asset bubble is different, and can be easily confused with healthy bull markets. But they all follow a certain pattern. They begin with ‘investor hype’ over a popular theme – an emerging industry or an exotic product that promises to change the world and make many people rich in the process.”
Bitcoin is the bubble with all the users pumping it with air. The gist of the article is that mania will ensue before this bubble bursts. The value could likely reach $3K, but it continues to grow as the investor interest grows, which leads to the use of ETFs.
Further contributing to the frenzy is low interest rates, which have reduced the trading costs associated with BTC.
What will throw this whole thing into sheer mania? “…a broad participation beyond the “pioneers” and the “early adopters,” to “early majority.” It’s then, that we’ll begin to see an explosion of investors hiking up the value based on the steady increase its shown thus far.
According to Forbes, “Investors who have been around Wall Street long enough know all too well that when money becomes tight and investment promises aren’t fulfilled, bubbles and manias end; and millions made are lost much faster than they were made. And then some.”

There were some falls in BitCoin and other cyber monies recently. I just got to know that there are quite a lot of block chain currencies following after BitCoin, having slightly different features from BitCoin. I read some skeptic views on the future of these cyber monies, and probably many of them will crush and the BitCoin...

I just got to know that there are quite a lot of block chain currencies following after BitCoin, having slightly different features from BitCoin. I read some skeptic views on the future of these cyber monies, and probably many of them will crush and the BitCoin will continue on(?). Right now, I don't have any BitCoin, I don't know it is good or bad for me :)

I love playing with bitcoin, the simplicity and ease of instant transactions are very convenient. I personally hope that bitcoin grows in popularity, I could totally see using it for everyday purchases like gas and groceries

I've never used Bitcoin. Its way too confusing for me and to try and find ways to purchase them, seems to be an issue. I am not too sure of the Future of Bitcoin, but I am hoping if it does stick around, it will be an easier way to deposit and withdraw.

can be in one similar situation like with chain ketters or finance pyramids. First investors get rich and last ones lost the most and bitcoin stops speculate and get physical worth

I dont believe it will burst, but im sure it will keep bouncing around and being volatile for a while.

When it comes to Bitcoin everything is possible... But if economists noticed some deja vu bubbling patterns and put it into connection with the future of Bitcoin, that doesn't sound really good...
