Another possibility is, Solarcoin isn't linked to Bitcoin anymore, so its playing by its own rules. Vipgelsi is probably right on also, if someone is selling off, that can cause a dip. Not worried in the least however. There's a bright future for Solarcoin. Anyone who takes a moment to look into it will see the potential. I will admit it's a little rough around the edges, but it's a rough diamond, not a lump of coal.
About SLR "not linked" to BTC anymore - I agree here - if we look at the price in SLR / BTC ratio, since ~may 2016 we are going "down" ~ 400% and I'm not happy about it, but if we look at that price in USD / SLR - we are going up and the growth may be slow but it is steady so I hope it will continue that way and it is for the best. Anyway every time I see some big wallet dump his stash at Bittrex I get mad, but overall we need distribution so in the long run I guess it is good if we get rid of the big whales - and speaking about big wallets I saw this one
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/slr/address.dws?258872.htm and I was confused -
when he popped up there
I didn't saw him last time I checked that rich list, but that amount of coin in the hands of one person is disturbing, especially to the new comers/investors. Anyway I think overall we will see a major increase in the price later this year with all of the stuff that is going on behind the curtains of the project - once we polish that rough diamond it will shine for sure
