The Trough is only noticed in retrospect after something comes out of it. For plenty of hype cycle things, the trough is actually a petering out to obscurity (think beanie babies).
Bitcoin will likely follow this pattern, especially since the price has stabilized at $3 since the bust (ignoring the big trader dump that brought it down to 2.50 for a while).
For its success though, it needs more converts. The problem is that it is a challenge to get bitcoins for new users. Most people don't want to hook up their bank account to some funny sounding website. I never did it myself, as i don't trust the exchanges with my money. Fortunately I knew someone mining bitcoins, and gave him cash for them after the bust.

Since the linked thread was apparently deleted, I have no idea what you guys are talking about in this thread.

Why did the mods delete the thread and not even label Leo as a scammer?

Someone is threatening to meet someone over at his restaurant to say stuff to his face for BTC no less ?

I just want to point that that Leo was not at the 'Uncle Jacks Steakhouse' he claims to own on 9th Ave in Manhattan nor does he even own it. Furthermore, after making a post how his company has "No Complaints" the thread was full of complaints that he chose to ignore.
Cheers!
+1 +1 your a class act Charlie keep it up! and Happy Holidays!
I think the mods should label leo a scammer now, unless he pays Charlie 1k BTC.
I agree, the evidence is there. He should be labeled a scammer asap.
Mods- Any take on the subject?

I agree with Ineedauser - should be labeled as such until paid.

I've been reading a lot of kumbaya lately. It's making me ill.
It could just be the holiday season bringing out the best in us.
True the holiday spirits are alive and well!

The good news is it should be good times ahead from here on out but we'll see!
I say the "trough of disillusionment" is here based on two forum posts I came across. Don't mean to open old wounds but just shows you how delirious everyone is! Someone is threatening to meet someone over at his restaurant to say stuff to his face for BTC no less ? To someone quiting the forum because of Mod's and people taking pot-shots at him I think we've hit it officially....
If this isn't the trough of disillusionment then I don't know what is ? do you ?
