There s no relation between this forum with the price of bitcoins.Price of bitcoins is regulated on its own ,on the other hand forum is facing some technical issues.price is going down as there is selling of bitcoins rather than buying,that is what here it is happening.

Why would you link the price of Bitcoin with the "down time" of this forum? It cannot possibly be because you think the signature income and

related advertising might have such a huge impact? Someone should actually take some time and count how many people participate in these

signature campaigns at any given time and then calculate "more or less" how many bitcoins are being circulated because of this. It might be

interesting reading... to see what these figures might be.  Grin

If you take a look at 24 hours chart at any source you would like you'll see right about the time forum went down price started to drop by the hour.
Is it true ? But I find too hard to believe this because traders will not be having time to check forum (I'm not going to see they are not at all checking but definitely not while trading).

I do see some discussions about latest news are here but not coming up with decision helping hot news, some crypto based news sites are faster than forum members to give latest crypto related events. If this is true, why prices of bitcoins need to go down when our forum is down. I just see it is a coincident, nothing else.

Still I too suggest people to donate to keep this forum more secured and versatile against any threats.

I see that's why i can't access the forum from the other day. cool i know whats the reason why i cant access the forum haha. Okay one of the reason why bitcoin price is also related in the forum i think there's a lot of huge users of bitcoin in forum that's why the traders and the people in the market suddenly stop the process that's why bitcoin price drop too because bitcoin price is also depending on the market,.
Lol it in timing that bitcointalk was in to upgrade and also the price of bitcoin was decrease doesn't mean bitcointalk down this time bitcoin price will fall also. All of users here are in bitcoin related and they can had updates on other website for them to check whats the bitcoin status now.
What do you mean about upgrade? It's just a technical prolem and theymos has said it before. Never try to fill your brain with negative thing. Bitcoin will not give anything for the bitcoin market.

I sincerely doubt there is any correlation between the forum downtime and this very minor price decrease. This is just the market going down and high as usual.

Forum wasn't down for everyone. I was able to access it without any issues over the past few 'under attack' days.
Any price changes related to this forum would be pure coincidence.

That's comparing two things that aren't the same. Although Bitcointalk is a lage center of discussion and communication, believe it or not people have other ways of talking about Bitcoin and we're not the center of the world. That being said, it is a nuisance when we're DDOSed and I wish people wouldn't do it to us.

I agree with your point that people have their own source of details about the bitcoin and only this forum is not the main part for the bitcoin information. Here in this forum we can get full details about the bitcoin and altcoins but the users are now very intelligent and they dont go with the scammers and other types of rumors

Hereby suggesting to investors and whales to support this forum more often with their donations if they want their coins stay high Cheesy

Hackers love to DDOS this site but Theymos already has his custom forum build and bug bounties so downtime is pretty much all we see.
Kind of annoying but a part of it is the demand and number of people observing the forum is also higher during peak rallies.
Then people go back to sleep after it pops ^^.

I don't think forum down time directly effects the price. Any noticeable price movements are likely coincidental. Most big players don't even post here I assume.

BTC to the moon is inevitable...

that is just a funny coincidence and from what i have been reading, it seems like the downtime was only affecting parts of the world and not everyone.

glad to see price is staying up though.

forum wasn't really down, it was a weird DOS attack that we can see theymost already fixed. i read that people could access bitcointalk through VPN and TOR!

funny thing is, nothing about price has changed it is still bitfinex leading the wave and bitstamp dumping the wave killing our buzz.
I just came to know this problem, that's why I could access to the forum using vpn.
But, Op maybe right even a little bit. We will see bigger impact if bitcointalk forum go down for 1 day or 1 week for sure.
Many people which earning bitcoin through this forum will be panic sell theirs as they may worry what happen with bitcoin, just speculate.

Seriously, why am I the only one seeing this? take another look and stop denying, price was going down for 10 hours that forum was inaccessible for most of the people and again started to rise back up since 6 hours ago exactly around the time when forum was accessible.
Lets DOS the forum again to see if I'm right, obviously you have no idea how does markets work, by emotion of course.
People felt tense started to go in negative direction but now we're heading upwards.
I guess I'm the only one noticing this.
Maybe you're the only one noticing because a very, very slight correlation doesn't equal a causation.  The change is only barely visible in the chart, maybe $20 or something, and that's just completely normal variation especially when it's rising so suddenly.  It's nothing to do with "how markets work".

Regardless, it was strangely half down rather than full on down.  I could access it, albeit very slowly and with some gaps, which I'm still getting today.

Theirs no provable cause that is is but we can't erase the fact or fuds with that thing since bitcointalk is the main site where people go if they want to find something or get something. But remember mate bitcoins prices are normally going down and up since theirs stable for it at all and this is not the first time bitcointalk go down and surely it will comeback soon.

And theirs nothing we can do for peoplea emotion for this issue since theirs no exchangers,wallets,institution or whatsoever big names site who hold bitcoins has been compromised so just relax and maybe your tense about this thing occuring but let the admins work for this to be solve and fuds are just fuds.

Only $20 dollars if I'm reading those charts correctly it dropped from $1232 to $1212 from morning which is not that significant, not that this forum isn't important it's actually considered the heart of the community of cryptocurrencies.
As far as i know if most of the traders are considered this forum as a reliable news to take more information or opinion regarding of bitcoin.

Don't you remember if this is a good place for shills to spread FUD around the forum and make more people gets panic caused by his FUD?

As like you said, This is the heart of a crypto community.

What you are telling is only affecting the altcoin market Bitcoin market is now gone more above this type of FUD and the users are now more intelligent then before. So what OP is relating is not correct for Bitcoin price
