Regardless of what you remember (selection bias), the chart doesn't lie. It has been a slow and continual decline against the bitcoin for the past 45 days. Anyone who listened to you lost a ton of bitcoins.
On 9/28 it went over 0.2 mBTC (at least partially due to some idiot trying to buy up 5% of the coins). Today it went under 0.04 mBTC. That is an 80% decline in 45 days, not much better than all the failed altCoins you love to trash. Moving 80% against the reference chart over a period of 45 days isn't considered "tight correlation".
Lol, I drove it to 49,800 Satoshis like 6-8 weeks ago so that idiot might have been me. I remember throwing 5 Bitcoins at it at once to test out a theory. I feel stupid now given those 5 Bitcoins would be worth a lot more.
I'll see if I can find any daily price tracker cause I'm certain it dropped very hard in 1 week or so about 2 weeks ago.
But look, ignoring the last month, look at ixCoin which 5 or 6 months ago was trading at 5,000-6,000 and it is now at the same price only back then I remember Bitcoin dipped to $68 from $120 ($266 to $50, then $120 to $68).
During this same timeframe, with very very few exceptions, all the other alt coins are down 90% and more.
So if you look at the last 5-6 months, since I've been around, Bitcoin has gone up from $68 to $440, and most alt coins have crashed by 90% or more, while, during the same timeframe, ixCoin has stayed at least even with Bitcoin. The 4,000 Satoshi sells today were negligible, less than .1 total Bitcoins in total sell orders so the price now is around 5,000 Satoshis.
So perhaps that idiot artificially drove ixCoin past 10,000 and now it's back to par or maybe I'm right and it's being manipulated but you can't ignore the fact that ixCoin has retained all or most of its value during a timeframe when very very few coins have done this.
At the very least this is worth a $50 investment in ixCoin. You'd have to be stubborn and foolish to not risk just $50 on one of the very few coins that for whatever reason can hold its ground against Bitcoin even as Bitcoin races to new all-time highs.
Do me a favor and just put $50 or even just $10 in ixCoin. This is not a pump as I will not sell, I just really want to see as many people as possible make money in the event that I will be right about ixCoin.
Good luck!
