Congratulations to Everyone Who Had the Foresight to See What Bitcoin Could Do.
Bitcoin has had an astronomical run in 2017. It has gone up more than 10X in the last 12 months. I am cautious because I believe the Bitcoin movement is being co-opted by people and organizations that are only here to speculate on the price. Bitcoin and Crypto Currency are so much more than that.
People like Ross Ulbricht and Charlie Shrem paid a high price to make this possible for all of us. Please take some time and learn about people like Ira Miller, Jeff Berwick, Trace Mayer, Bruce Fenton, Roger Ver and others who helped pave this street of gold.
Learn About the History of Bitcoin.
Here is some homework. The Rise & Rise of Bitcoin

I think it's healthy to be skeptical and concerned with so much money sloshing around. I think there are plenty of coins in the sea to continue promoting the original vision of open-source free markets. Keep spreading the good word, Randy.
It's easy for us old timers (hah! just less than 5 years for me, and I'm an "old timer") to say, "Back in my day..." and "Get off my cryptocurrency lawn!" but the reality is this is a dynamic space and all of us got involved at some point for various motivational reasons. The weak hands will shake out on the next correction, take the fiat winnings to the bank and be happy. The rest of us will keep plugging away to educate the masses on the benefits of unmanipulated money, the world's first global, immutable, cryptographically-secure digital ledger technology. The blockchain is here to stay, no matter what coin name it takes. There will be enough of "us" to continue the open-source vision of freedom regardless of where the masses go. If they want closed-source or government-controlled projects, they are welcome to them. We'll continue to demonstrate how freedom will ultimately prevail.

I completely agree with needing to get the word out to the masses to help them better understand what this "industry" is all about but there are going to be those who will be the all time skeptic when it comes to anything new. I like the idea of an open source of currency and I do also believe there are plenty of people invested into it to make it stay for the long haul. Which one will rule them all? Who knows but Bitcoin is doing a pretty good job so far.
I feel myself even getting to where I say "back in my day..." when I'm at work and it burns me up because I always told myself I would never do or say that one line. Do I think cryptocurrency will continue without some sort of regulation? No, sadly I don't. All good things must come to an end but not before many millionaires are made. Jump on the bandwagon while you can guys!
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

I think the blockchain will reinvent trust itself which will change how we shape societies and governance. Laws are just threats of violent force. In a world where peaceful cooperation can be more profitable, humans, like water, will flow to what benefits them. Aligned incentives will make attempts to regulate seem archaic (because they are). No one "owns" the blockchain. It's part of nature now, and I don't think it can be stopped. It may be pushed under ground for a time, but even the governments of the world aren't so stupid to realize how powerful this technology is and how they can't un-invent it. They will try to subvert it, discredit it, and copy it, but it will live on as what imagine it to be.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

I totally agree but with the way some governments want to regulate things they can't control it is sadly bound to happen. Net neutrality sound familiar? There will always be someone thinking about how to make something open source for all to use and it will be unregulated for a time. I don't see it being fully regulated any time soon but that's why more people need to jump on it.
I think the big thing that may turn some people away is reading a lot about people being scammed or hacked and losing money rather than making millions just by sitting at home doing nothing. I really don't see it any different than investing in stocks. If you invest in the right ones you can make alot of money just like the stock market. I think the biggest issue people will have is security.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

I agree, security is key. That's why I'm trying to help people with @ubf videos. We can level up and secure our own stores of value, regardless of what the government does, but it takes personal responsibility.
I think every attempt at government control just creates new opportunity for freedom-loving innovation. People being scammed or hacked is what also reinforces the need for personal responsibility and security. Password managers, up-to-date anti-virus software, operating system security patches... this is just the beginning of what people should learn about.

More and more people everyday are coming into the crypto space, so naturally it is becoming the peoples personal and collective interests. In free democratic societies governments are "supposed to" protect the interests of the people, so I try and stay optimistic when the discussion of regulation comes up, regulations can be a good thing and help protect more people allowing for a safer more secure overall community.
I agree that the blockchain is in nature now and it wont be stopped.

Thank you for educating us luke, and also hilarski! I really hope, as you say, that blockchain will not be stopped, and neither regulated.

Oh, you are so right, I have taught some of my mates at work, and some just invested a few thousand dollars in Ethereum, because they found it promising. I don't have that money right now, but I hope I will be able to accumulate in time in order to invest. I just try to share the knowledge but I feel that I am not so confident yet. Right now I am learning about proof of stake, and one coin that interested me (since it was much lower a few weeks ago) is Cardano's ADA. I told myself that one of these days I am going to ask you what do you think about it, but I don't know if it is the right moment and if you have the time to share your thoughts about it :)

Most people in Bitcoin today have not even taken the time to read the white paper. They just hold it in their Coinbase account without transacting in it. We starting accepting Bitcoin in 2013 and have 5 people pay with it 2014-2015, especially in 2015 as price recovered and fees were low. Since fees went past $1 no one pays in it anymore. Not one person from 2016-2017.

This is a vulnerability in the 'store of value'-led view of Bitcoin. What causes currency to be stable is that people need to have it available liquid in large amounts in order to cover ongoing expenses and commerce. Ongoing commerce ensures that there are always people buying regardless of price, that reduces volatility and increases liquidity.
If the transactional utility of Bitcoin is diminished then there can only be so much commerce, and the commercial demand gets overwhelmed by speculators. Look at what happened to gold: yes gold has retained value in the long run compared to fiat currency, but after being confined to bank vaults, it actually no longer serves as a reliable store of value in the monetary sense. Gold today is a speculative investment: you hold it as a hedge against stock market crashes on the judgment that it will increase in value when stocks fall (which is often but not always true). You can't reliably expect a certain amount of purchasing power day to day from a gold coin, nor can you easily exchange it for goods and services.
Due to the dominance of speculators, you get large swings in price, perpetually, rather than it becoming more stable over time as the trend had been before.

Well, I listened to it all.
I am surprised that people buy centralized coins like Ripple, Ripple as the biggest mystery for me.
I think the free market will weed out the bad coins over time.
I know we have different views on some of the coins (like bitconnect).. I agree with most of what you say and yes many have paid a price for the fight and many more haven't.. I got bankrupt trying to build an exchange, because no bank wanted to open a business account for my exchange, that was all build (before Bitshares).. I have not been in prison... but I also have taken some other hits from my surroundings, openly supporting Bitcoin and more. In the end, I think the one person (or group of people) that should have the honor for what is happening and that is Satoshi Natamoto and not so much the people you mention, you or myself.. we are just small time marketer.. if it wasn't for us, there would have been others :)
Anwyay, keep it up... and when we finally get EOS, I think transportation and housing will come partly on the blockchain (uber-clone and airbnb clone) and that will be a huge step for mainstream adaption.

Excellent stuff! Great promo video. :)
I'm glad you added the "participate in the community more generally" point. You might also want to add a future video on how the value here actually works. The money doesn't come from nowhere. Investors in STEEM, the cryptocurrency, create the demand for the token which creates all the value we enjoy here. As much as we need more content creators and more community members to engage and vote up content, we also need investors to support the token which gives the rewards pool value. I'd love to see further discussions about how investors should look into STEEM as an under-valued cryptocurrency with 3 second block times and free transactions.
This is an exciting place to be, and I'm thankful you had the foresight to let your audience know about it.
Oh, also, I rarely do this, but I'm going to here in order to make a point. I'm going to upvote my own comment here to demonstrate how those with Steem Power can actually promote their own ideas to the top of the conversation. Lately I haven't even been upvoting my own main blog posts as I want to save voting power for other peoples' posts, but this too, I think, is an important aspect of the platform people should know about. Having influence in terms of Steem Power is valuable (when used in moderation, of course).

I wanted to share another option to investing in Bitcoin that may be hitting stride, as I have been riding the wave with Bitcoin and other currencies.
One thing I looked at was BTSC or Bitcoin Services Inc. I bought 30,000 shares back when it was trading at $0.07, banking on the on going success of the coin would help drive people that wanted to be invested at a different level and see their investment as part of their investment and/or IRAs. I was very excited to be able to include this in on my IRA account as it has done great and is killing my Index Funds.

Whats next for bitcoin? Are we going to have a draw back? Is it going to fly to 15k? Or will this steady growth? If anyone has the brain power to shade any light on this IT would be great.

Fear and greed are the two factors between the long term investor and people who sell too early by following the news around them.

I will not say anymore that we need a correction. Seems that this is not happening at all. Strange world.

Yep, this is a very important milestone for cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin, and we should be cautiously celebrating it, indeed.

I can see a fear greater potential in the Altcoins, especially if you look at Ethereum and all the apps and ICOs that use its smart contracts and payment systems..

Perhaps a moment of reflection and time to think of the bigger picture. Whats the point of an asset going up if you can't sell it and make so Fiat with it. Let us not forget history as it has a way or repeating itself.

What are your thoughts on where it will be in a couple years? And Ethereum too? Corrections aside, do you think there is still another parabolic jump in store for these cryptos? And do you worry about government manipulation, since clearly central bank goons are shitting their pants right now?

I completely agree. Lots of manipulation (more than usual) has been happening in bitcoin the past several months this year. I think that those in know they can't control bitcoin so there are way being thought up on how to create a control system for it.

Bitcoin and blockchain have an imminent danger ... they will be forced to be accepted as a normal financial asset class .... whereas that wasn’t the creators intent ....

Good points made about being cautious, however there are several big buyers waiting for opportunities to buy at every level, 10k, 9k, 8k, etc which is why it's likely to continue trending upwards!

Two days ago, I met my friend at the bar, and he was very angry with me. Six months ago I tried to explain to him that if he has spare money he can invest it in bitcoin.
He asked: "are you sure?"
And I said, "Yes, I'm sure by Christmas it will cost $ 5,000".
And here in the bar he told me "I hate you, you made a mistake with the forecast, and I invested just half of the free money".
What can I say, I'm glad I was mistaken in the smaller side :)

As the song goes, we have only just begun.
I am thoroughly excited about Wall Street entering the picture. You mention people who are speculating it up...wait until you see what the street does to it. I have never been this optimistic about anything as I am cryptocurrencies.
It is like buying penny stocks knowing hedge funds are coming to buy most everything up. We really are looking at the idea situation.
125 and counting...that is the number of hedge funds set up in 2017 for investment in crypto. I read last night the founder of techcrunch is starting a $100M fund....just more money entering the picture.

Dear @hilarski
Currencies such as Bitcoin will reach a critical mass of adopters, from which point on, they will begin to seriously disrupt the banking system as we know it.
If you’re concerned about the issues that have smeared Bitcoin on occasion, it’s important to remember that the Internet too, ran into its share of problems in the early years.
All disruptive technologies have teething troubles. However, when the founders of massively successful Internet enterprises such as Netscape and LinkedIn invest millions in a technology, as Marc Andreessen and Reid Hoffman have both done, you better believe it’s a technology that’s going somewhere.
