Well sell now @ 450 is a pretty good price, instead of having to panic sell at 300  Cheesy.

The real threat to Bitcoin, which can cause a total collapse, is regulation. The US Gov wants to control you, and the best way to do this is to control your access to and use of money. If they cant tax you and monitor how and where you spend your money, they lose their total power over you.

Sadly, there is a big push right now to regulate Bitcoin and I do believe that it might be the beginning of the end:

Cool, fear. As the Oracle said: "Be greedy when others are fearful." It's only when the last vocal bear gives up that the crash really hits.

FTFY

The bears don't go away, they just bite their tongues and bide their time.  When it is silent they are all preparing their attacks.

yeah, all the newbs who cashed out at 300 would be generating such threads with each new climb up because they really *FEAR*, but they do fear that it will keep climbing up with them left behind. unfortunately for them, as you said, market would only crash once they see those threads are not working, panic, and buy back in Smiley

So this is just another "Blame the 'speculators' on everything" thread?

Wah, wah, wah.

Go find another market to FUD.

If deflation, hoarders, and speculators make you shit your pants I suggest reading some of Fekete's essays, a good bedtime story, he will put your mind at ease.

We just saw that in the "Will you sell at $1000?" that 88% would not.  So presumably, if the price even went to $200, LOTS of "Buy and Hold" people would buy like crazy.  (I know I would.)

people don't sell on greed, they sell on panic

the question should rather have been

"Will you sell at $200"

'This is the inherent flaw in bitcoin.'

This is the inherent flaw in any asset ever.  MM guys will always manipulate in attempts to pump and dump.

I'm so sick of reading newbie crap posts like this....if you are afraid you shouldn't be investing the kind of money you probably invested.

It is only natural after a meteoric rise like the one we are seeing in the last few weeks. Nonetheless i think that there is an agenda behind those threads. But it is futile anyway...

You know...if your living in "fear" of what will happen....you are too emotionally attached to the amount you have invested.

I would say you should sell 99% of whatever bitcoin you have...down to a low enough level where you don't give a shit about it anymore...that's how much you personally should be invested in something like this.

A big selloff doesn't change the fundamentals of bitcoin.
It'll go back up, and probably quite rapidly as people seize the opportunity to get cheap coins.

Exactly, btc is a massively growing market of buyers. More buyers = high price. Although these people are new to the market and so are like sheep in the headlights and get easily scared and sell at the slightest sign of the price going down. But the price will always recover and go even higher. Like I said before, the market of buyers is growing exponentially.

collapse in price =/= collapse of Bitcoin.

If you feel the price is excessively high ... don't buy or sell off a portion (sell into rally)
If you feel the price is excessively low ... don't sell or buy to increase your stake (buy on the dips).
