Bitcoin price is determined by market forces. The price dropped, simply because there were a lot of sell orders.
If you check https://bitcoinwisdom.com/, you will see a lot of bitcoin was sold on the exchanges at round 7:30 UTC on 14th, causing the price to go down very quickly.

I dont know why these fools are selling their btc at that too much low price. Why dont they wait for next few montha and sell btc at 400 above. Its the time to buy as much as you can. No one determine its price it spaculation it will go higher in just next few months. Lets hope for the best

No idea.
Probably some bitcoiners panic-sold their bitcoin after seeing the price crashed over 20% in a day (bitstamp price went from $250 to $200) and further crashed another 20% within 30 minutes (bitstamp price went from $205 to $152).

Bitcoin is rising again now and I don't think it will be reaching $200 any time soon again.

Bitcoin will prevail!

It can be depressing watching the btc price drop, you really need to think long term and not dwell on the current downturn. I'm still buying as much bitcoin I can afford regardless of the price.

I understand that the price of bitcoin is slowly dropping, but is there real need for panic?

And also, if anyone knows the mechanics of bitcoin, why is it failing?

the reason for panic is some people bought large amounts a couple of month back and now that the price is falling they are panicing also mostly start panic selling so it further increases the drop in price

I haven't even got a single bitcoin Tongue

But yeah, that was what I was guessing. Hopefully more people trust and use bitcoin in the future (In God we trust currency everyone?)

At these prices, might be time to grab a few and forget about them for a decade.

It has nothing to do with "Bitcoin". There's no algorithm or anything that dictates the price. It's purely dictated by how much people are willing to pay for a Bitcoin. It's nothing more than just another commodity for which people have to agree on a common price.

And also by how much people are willing to sell bitcoins for. Without a seller there is no buyer.

Nobody knows why the price is dropping, though there are some guesses. But Bitcoin isn't failing at all, so to answer your first question - no.

Nobody can tell you why it's dropping and when that stops. But when you have put all your retirement capital in BTC january 2014 then there is reason to panic. Shocked

I mean, for someone there is reason to panic and for an other person is it just an normal movement of the marketprice.
