Long term bitcoin is still a smart investment.  but if you're JUST NOW getting into buying, it is a bad time to start in my opinion.  I feel there is going to be another huge dump at the end of the month and the bottom will  stabilize in the $60-80 range for months

Do not ask me why, just go compare this year's bubble to 2011's and you'll see we are in a downtrend

With all the heat lately, this has got me concerned.  I send a wire to MtGox on Monday, and my bank said it went through.  MtGox says they cannot find it.

Could the Feds be doing something to shut down BTC?  I'm pretty sure they want to.

With BitInstant shutting down, the atmosphere has got me very nervous.  Not sure what to do.  Is BTC still a safe investment?



I would bank more on it being Gox incompetence over anything to do with the banks or the Feds.

Banks are doing more to annoy Bitcoiners than governments, probably because banks realize that this is a new technology which will force them to behave and reduce the ponzi FIRE economy to the rump that it should be.
If Bitcoin was a sure-fire winner right now they would go for $900 each not $90.
Use Bitstamp instead of MtGox at least until MtGox sorts itself out (at which point it may be no.2 exchange anyway).

Great, thats an intelligent response.  I find it strange to find such a comment here.  But, okay, thanks for that.  Enjoy your cancer.
