I was just trying to gauge peoples opinion on whether to keep adding to my stash or lock up shop & wait it out for years to see if we go to the promised land.

Double down, bro.  This thing can't lose

If you have not made money shorting this year, you are doing it very wrong

do you really believe we will see double or single digits?

if you want to make money the time to buy is now except of course you can predict the market perfectly  

Spoken like a true belieber !!
I never said anything about double digits, just that making money shorting this year was not exactly hard, and it did not need perfect market prediction. All you had to do was sell at sensible times and wait. And then short too if you felt like it for extra lulz

EDIT :I think double digits is *possible* next year, though I would not bet the ranch on it. Bo I believe we will see them - no idea, time will tell. Meanwhile, as the old saying goes, only invest what you can afford to lose - there is no such thing as a sure bet.

Anybody still buying regularly?

I'm a HODLER but at a bit of a cross roads right now regarding 'do I stick with what I have' or 'keep buying'.
No positive news at all for a while now but then again no real negative news.

It's all gone a bit boring.....

I'm still waiting for those double digit prices I have been promised for months now, to buy an additional 1000 btc, yet still no luck.

The bears have been promising cheap coins for over a year now, but they don't keep their promises.
It was supposed to go nowhere but down, yet here I am looking at more expensive coins each week.

All this trading, shorting, doom and the final dead of bitcoin, but not a single bear willing to sell me xx$ coins.

The chinese leaving were supposed to bring us back to 2011 prices, but either the chinese didn't leave or yet again false promises.

Just guessing here, but I've got this feeling that the bears and trolls haven't got the slightest idea what they are talking about, or am I supposed to wait until hell freezes over?

Ofcourse not, single digits was the time I loaded up a couple of 1000's btc, still hodl, have no need to sell it for 1200$ or 380$, that's the beauty of not having to troll the forums for a couple of bucks an hour. The trolls would be better of going into the real world and start earning some real money or btc.

No no, those good times of double digit prices have been long gone.

Who pays people to troll the forums & why?

Major bears trying to scare noobs off from buying in order to crash the price so they can benefit from cheap coins?

Are you telling me that NotLambchop is doing it for free? That would be pathetic. lol

@ fonsie - I hope you don't think I am trolling. I am just sharing my opinions, sometimes intermingled with facts

Well if you are trolling, you are doing it way better than NotLambchop

i totaly agree to your assertion about the bearmarket of 2014 in general, but my comment was regarding to now.
i believe that we saw the bottom and will definitly not see double digits or single digits.

Cool, if that's what you believe act accordingly. But make sure you are doing it based on your own analysis and not just blindly believeing what others say. There are many blind followers here who to be perfectly honest come across as sheep paying to get in line to get sheered ...

Personally I don't think the bottom is in, but I have been wrong before and will be wrong many times again  
And yes, I am putting my money where my mouth is, and hopefully also interacting in a way that does not offend people

You never know . A lot of people thought that price would go down due to the auction,
 but it has been stable for the whole week, which is a strong thing for bitcoins.

I make weekly scheduled buys....always. If you are debating it I would just make small frequent buys if you are still bullish on bitcoins future. The value of bitcoin has gone up like crazy this past year, price just doesn't know it yet.

Sorry, this is completely OT, but I nearly fell of my chair when I came across it just now and have to share

If you say anything but "up up up" and "to da moon" guaranteed you're going to offend some people on here.

Its not that. Most bears around here got into bitcoin due to media hype either around November 2013 or later and hence have only seen a downward market which is blinding them to the future of digital decentralized and programmable money. These bears are the get rick quick types that are pissed that bitcoin hasn't made them millionaires yet.

People that have been around a while have been treated really well by bitcoin and have gained great wealth with more to come with time. If your a bear and hoping to "strike it rich" buy some bitcoin and wait a while FFS, shit doesn't happen overnight.
