No, I'm trying to show that a) they're heavily correlated b) There seems to be a direct relationship between the price bottom and transactions per day c) This graph can be used to estimate how much air (that is, speculation) there is in the exchange rate.
Ok try and add it to the site when i get chance.
Your site is often down... 2 out of the 3 times I tried to use it today got me at the cloudflare page.
Had a problem with tomcat segfaulting, seems to be fixed now.
I'm curious what you're using to determine which pools found blocks...considering you've posted multiple blocks as found by BTC Guild that were not, and multiple blocks not found by BTC Guild as ones we have
.
I'm a method similar to Dam Kaminsky's proposal, recording the first node to relay a transaction as the transaction's origin. As it says on the pools stats page this isn't always 100% accurate.
I have added live network propagation maps @
http://blockchain.info/inv/${hash} . You can use this tool to help determine the origin or a transaction as well as to measure how well it has propagated through the network. If "First Relayed" and "Most relayed" match that ip is almost certainly the owner of a transaction e.g.

If they are not the same but geographically very close together e.g.
http://blockchain.info/inv/f631f8d4153797fdb5b0b78514af9e126fa6607d106d56e9d2a584a494186a1d then the originator is probably the "most relayed" node.
to determine the owner of a block look at the mining pools list look at which pools relayed first. For example BTC guild is almost certainly the owner of this block
