it is not game over, but it is not time to buy or hold. based on all the fundamentals, bitcoin is worth  A LOT LESS than 94x the dollar. Until oil(or major commodity) is sold for bitcoin, this is a speculative price that has no basis in reality.

I also think a bitcoin can be worth 0 dollars and still not be game over.

1 bitcoin can be worth 1 barrel of oil.

a dollar is worthless. . . a bitcoin is a global currency and is worth way more than 200 dollars.

Currency only has value if you can actually buy things.
Other than gambling and drugs, there isn't much you can currently buy with bitcoins.

You can buy pretty much anything with bitcoins right now thanks to bitspend, gyft, etc.

Well no, thanks to Gyft i can convert Bitcoin into currency i can buy stuff with.  You're saying "You can buy pretty much anything with bitcoins cows right now thanks to gyft cattle auctions, etc."

Also, WHERE IS YOUR IMAGINATION? Bitcoin adoption is constantly growing. Don't look at how bitcoins work today, think about how the world will look with bitcoins tomorrow. That's how investing works, you buy an asset that you think will be valuable in the future.

The cool thing about real money is you don't need any imagination.  If imagination bought stuff, i wouldn't need Bitcoin. Cheesy

it was at 87 a few weeks ago and bounced back to 130.  I'm sure you said it was "game over" then too.  If you say that every time it drops, you will be right eventually but wrong every other time of course.

plus game isn't even over under 30$.
at some point we have less speculation because of small gain in profit and it will stabilize more which is good for actual market growth.

Me: Bitcoin is cool!
95% of my facebook friends: What's Bitcoin?

What big headlines? The media has no idea.

Oh hai, nice avatar Wink

and yes there has been some news hype but most people have no clue. People eating burgers in one of the places accepting Bitcoin the Berlin Bitcoin Kiez had no idea, how informed do we suppose the general population to be?

value dropping like a rock.... Cry

Value or Price?

The bitcoin game isn't even close to being over until we reach level 21 (and it continues to get more interesting for a long while after that, in theory). We've not long completed level 10...

Lower prices might actually provide opportunities for the masses to buy into Bitcoin once again. Even if Bitcoin hit say $5 a coin, that might actually be a good thing long-term.

The opportunity to buy into any stock with known extreme volitiity at a low price should make it an attractive proposition for anyone and not just investors.

At lower prices Bitcoin is better as a currency. At higher prices it becomes more of a commodity. The correct balance will hopefully be established someday, price stability is important.

It's been very quite recently as far as it concerns the bitcoin.
After the big headlines in the news papers, the buzz is over.
I don't see many people are trading bitcoin for goods.

Ya, because whenever I try to buy something with BitCoin I get SCAMMED.

BitCoin is USELESS FOR THE AVERAGE, EVERYDAY PERSON! Now people's response to this growing use of scams in trades is "use an escrow". THAT IS NOT THE POINT OF BITCOIN, TO USE AN ESCROW! What good is it if you HAVE to use an escrow.

Not to mention:

Bitcoin should be used, not hoarded.  The price dropping maybe a good thing if it makes people more willing to use them to buy things.

bitcoin - game over
insert new coin - game start

I sort'a agree.  If Bitcoin prices fall low enough, miners will aim their hashpower to some alt that's profitable to mine -> weakening the hashpower of the Bitcoin network -> harming Bitcoin security -> making new alt the new standard.  Makes sense.
