Actually, Bitcoin had its own glitch with the recent fork, but I don't see where one has to do with the other.
Bitcoin was not affected in any way by the NYSE getting knocked offline. There may be some marginal follow-on effect where some unwashed masses consider '...well, NYSE is not problem-free...'.
And I was utterly unaffected by the recent [sic] 'Bitcoin glitch'. Which was not a Bitcoin glitch in the least. Mine pool operators stuck their necks out too far -- farther than prudent -- and mined on chains that they didn't bother to verify. This is not an issue with Bitcoin. It is an issue with imprudent mining pool operators.
I know what happened, and it did affect some people. So even though it wasn't Bitcoin's fault, it was a Bitcoin issue.
