Yeah baby!!!
VOLATILITY!!!

I wonder if this has anything to do with the resilience in price over the past 24hs.

We are waiting to hear about a new MAJOR Bitcoin player news tomorrow... could boost price guidance.

If this has something to do with Bitmit suddenly shutting up shop then we're only in the foothills.

I think it was this (already reported here):

probably... or are there other news today?


I thought we might settle back at ~$350 on Gox today, setting up for Monday (in case another bullish week ensues following this).  Plenty of volume now though.  Certainly plenty of capitulation this weekend from those taking down profits..

Am I a wizard?

You guys have got to watch for those dub apps.

I seem to remember some guy saying "anything below $300 is a bargain" - i feel like he almost singlehandedly saved bitcoin


Quote from: Tyler Durden

As Bitcoin Plunges 25% On Government Scrutiny, The First BTC "Fair Value" Reco Has A Stunning Price Target

Let’s use a broad guesstimate. One Bitcoin should theoretically be worth 700 ounces of gold or pretty close to $1,000,000, if we adjust existing supply of both to equal eachother. One BTC is currently worth 0.14 ounces of gold. That gives BTC an upside of 5000 times to equal the current price of gold, supply adjusted. Clearly, I and everyone else believes that Gold may well be much higher than here in the next 5 to 10 years, thus versus the US Dollar the upside for BTC could be multiples of that. Now, before you shake your head, simply go back to the chart of Gold versus the US Dollar and just recognise that it has risen 8750% since the 1920s. And just remember that Microsoft rose 61,000% from its IPO to it’s peak. Considering what we know about the world, I personally believe that Bitcoin may well explode in value as more and more people begin to use it. If you stuck $5,000 into Bitcoins and each Bitcoin did go up to a gold equivalent of let’s say, only 100 ounces of gold (not the potential fair value of 700), then at current prices your Bitcoin stash would be worth $3.3m.

For 700 ounces of gold a BTC I'll sell a considerable portion of my Bitcoins.

if it only goes to 1 mil I will be disappoint

I figure 7M probably

One year ago...

BTC was at 299.68 USD (Bitstamp VWAP)

Volatility from yesterday continued and was even higher. First correction in this rally.
Today (2014) we will likely see a higher exchange rate than one year ago Smiley

indeed Smiley

But it's very much possible that soon the market cap will also be lower than a year ago...

Anyway, bitcoin survived in 2012 when the exchange rate was lower than in 2011. So the current sutuation should not directly mean that BTC is dead...
Although, I hope that the exchange rate wil start a new uptrend within a few months. An anouncement of the Bitcoin ETF could make this happen.

Exactly. Smiley I had to make the point while it was still true. Wink

I'm amazed we're going to get another 10% hash rate increase soon.

A year ago the difficulty was 510,929,738. Now we're at 39,603,666,252. 77x.

If it's still profitable at these prices then we can have some time to go as miners sell OTC.

After that the ETF could be the huge event to "drain the oceans" as aminorex would say.

Let's not forget there are ~1.5 million more bitcoins in circulation compared to a year ago.

So even though the price remains the same, the market cap has increased from ~4B to ~4.6B.

So it has grown 15% in a year but people are saying it is dead. Funny. Wink

>deflationary currency
>inflating at 15% per year
Funnier.

P.S:  In a day or two, your "market cap increase" claim will be false Sad

The price chart now looks worse than I hoped, and the 12-month-cycle hasn't been repeated as I hoped, it's still possible that the cycle will repeat in a prolonged way. Also it's possible november will echo last years buy panic.

One year ago...

BTC was at 338.71 USD (Bitstamp VWAP)

The rally continued, but some volatility entered the market.
It is possible the current exchange rate will dip below the rate of exactly one year ago in the next 24h...

We'll now stay above where we were 365 days ago for only about 48 hours, then we'll drop below it indefinitely, until a major rally occurs.

Bitcoins? Buy! Buy! Buy! Without Hesitation!


Already bought all the bitcoin I want, actually bought too early Sad...

There is still way how you can get some more of them:

Open account at Bitfinex. Deposit already bought coins and buy some new with leverage. Don't use max leverage!

Leverage is risky, advice not to use it...

Also life is risky. Don't use it Smiley

TLDR: one year ago people talked about 10k or 100k coins by now, because year after year the price must goes up at least 10x due some unknown natural law.

Can't say it was unfair
