I think that its also because Bitstamp was "down" for some days and had issues...

Any value that brings you profit is a good value. So even if its 50$ and you still earn money the price is OK. If you are sitting on 100k and you didn't sold for 750$ then that is your decision, just don't be crying if the price drops and never goes as high as that....

How many times do we have to go through this before people get it: NO. Bitcoin isn't going anywhere.

The problem with a large mining drop, is if it happens too fast, we could get stuck on a block for a LONG time. Like some of those ult currencies out there. But hopefully it would never drop that fast.

No, even BTC 1 = USD 10 is perfectly fine for Bitcoin to work as a currency.

Not true. Everyone would stop mining. Electricity costs and costs of hardware would become prohibitive.

There must be a minimum price per bitcoin for the miners to make a profit, otherwise they wouldn't do it.

For the network to function it would be enough if a single person mines on his smartphone.

If miners don't make a profit they stop (in reality not all do it), but unless they all stop at once, difficult goes down and the Network still functions.

This is true although some would continue to mine on the basis that the price will eventually rise, but now that ASIC miners are the only real way forward, the price of bitcoin is somewhat set by the companies willing to go through the process or making the processors.

If btc was going to end, it would have been when it dropped from 250 - 100 . Right now, its too popular to "die".

You're crazy to think this, there's only one way bitcoin ends and that's if someone ever finds a 100% way of destroying the network which right now seems next to impossible.

It's just a stabilization of the market, such as when the price was within 120$
