What is a "strong hand" and a "weak hand"?? Does this imply bitcoin is some kind of investment scheme? I thought it was a currency.

But I think you're right: Everybody that still uses US$ for value comparison didn't understand Bitcoin yet.

that would be the expression of the ultimate strong hand.

who cares about $, all the bitcoins belong to me Cheesy

Even strong hands get weaker over time. Gravity.

I suppose your comment has merit. But I think that it isn't a completely proportional concept to price rising.

When the prices rebound and remain stable strong hands get stronger. As they can expect to know the price is going to rebound as it has so many times before. Hence the load the truck with more bitcoins even though the price has risen over 1000% in a year.

Right? I mean gravity is strong and all, but not compared to a motherfucking rocket ship.

you forgot that someone has to pay the fuel for the trip to the moon
