This rally might have been the real dead cat bounce. Bitcoin market is growing up and things take more time than they used to.
What are you telling me here? We going sub-50 levels?  Huh

Yes. I don't think this is a certainty, but I think it's possible, maybe even likely.

Everyone is always trying to "define" everything.

How about this theory? --->  Bitcoin is simply in a phase where it grew to he 140's, consolidated, sprang to the 220s, and cam back down to the 170s.   That's just as or more plausible than a 4 month dead cat bounce.

The paradox in that statement hurts my brain.

Just growing pains.  Over time the rises and falls will be less dramatic percentage wise.  If the trade value falls to $100 and then rises back to $200 you've lost nothing as long as you still have your coins.  Look at the longer term picture rather than quick buck speculation and you may be rather pleased at the outlook.

Plus all of the weak hands have been scared off the exchanges after the bubble burst in Apr. Now there are a lot of people holding their coins no matter what.
Is there any sort of a basis for the strong hands / weak hands theory? Like, something tangible / observable? So many people state this "fact", but it just seems like a wild assumption to me.


Back in Apr. there were so many people who dumped their coins at the first sign at trouble. As I remember it was Gox being shutdown for a short time which started the mass sell off at the $266 peak. If an exchange went down today I highly doubt it will cause a panic sell. I am just comparing the buyers back then with the buyers today who are of a much different mentality.

50% isn't a crash in bitcoin world. It is high volatility get used to it.

I would use the following:

<20% daily fluctuation
20-35% flashcrash
35-65% middle-of-the-move correction
65%-90% once-per-year event
>90% epic crash

shit man, if it continues like this, we will be asking us "can we have two bubbles in one day?"    Shocked

Chart showing that in one day bitcoin can crash 50%, rise 100%, crash 50% and again raise 100%, with high volume, in the biggest and best exchnge MtGox.

This doesn't change fact that you need much more that 200$ to mine 1BTC or 200000$ to mine 1000BTC.

Two other possible things to consider.  Bitcoin currently is still inflationary since a rather large % of coins keep getting created every day.  A large amount of ASIC manufacturers need to convert BTC to fiat and a large number of ASIC buyers need to cash out their losing bets on most recent ASIC buys.

He/she is only trying to justify for himself/herself why it possibly can't crash this time and that it's completely different now. Dangerous.

Will somebody mention the difficulty jump from 7,673,000 in April to 267,731,249 today and above 350,000,000 in 3 days tops?
if the price was above 200$ with ~8mil difficulty where should it be today?

P.S. I'm Greek by the way Smiley
