That is just the thing about Bitcoin... You have a core {no pun intended} group of people who strongly believe Bitcoin will succeed and they are holding onto their Bitcoin to the
end, not being phased by the smallest rumor that the experiment failed. Then you have the speculators, who are in it for the profits and will react to the smallest bit of bad
news, and when they realize that it was just a bunch of crap, they starts to invest again. {Riding the volatility} In between all of that, you have some people sitting on the
wire, who just invested some money into Bitcoin, because a friend mentioned that it's the best technology out there at the moment. When they see these headlines, they panic
and sell. Bitcoin will always be like that... and we will see a lot more of this in the future.
....The secret is to buy back the panic coins, when the small believers run.
