It's just summer.
I think it's the quiet before the storm, just a question of when.
If it's to become a widely accepted exchange mechanism then we can expect several more mega coasters for sure.

Bitcoin is never boring. Nearly everyday we get more merchants adding in and there's always something going on that we can talk about. I'm sure the future will only get more exciting very soon, though.

It also gives people some additional time to acquire bit coin before the price starts back upward again. Calm is good.

And the merchants are loving it too. They need a less volatile currency, to function better.
Even though it's boring for us hoarders, it's good for some.

Personally, I've been enjoying these stable prices. It makes purchasing things less of a hassle because I don't have to worry about overpaying/underpaying an item after I buy btc from and exchange and use my btc to buy a product. Same value.
