Where do you hear these fallacies from man. Bitcoin isn't dead. If you have been observing the historical data, there's usually a dip when the festive season comes in, please start selling these coins to buy stuff. Bitcoin adoption hasn't halted, it's ongoing. The price just corrected, it was long overdue. Bitcoin takes a slight dip you think its dead. FUD mongers would love this.
The only bitcoins I ever got were a few back when you could mine profitably with GPUs, and a few more in exchange for services. Never bought any with real money and don't plan to. What I am interested in is if anyone serious still sees a future in bitcoin, and if so, what they're reasons might be. That's why I started this thread.
