during November I went out for drinks for a couple of hours, came home drunk to see a 25% price crash but the price was still higher than when I went out  Cheesy fun times!

Another rally is a certainty. Everything works in cycles. Everything is vibrations. You have ups and downs and round and round.

I remember thinking why didn't I buy years ago when I had more money and the price was lower.  I was happy to see the project become so successful that was mind blowing to all of us I'm sure. Hey I made some profit during the rally so it is what it is.  Those were some amazing and unique times.

it takes a brave soul to buy when others are selling and the trolls are out in full force.  confirmation bias is oftentimes not a good thing.

I was feeling like this

After not selling at 266 in April, I made a plan to sell a certain amount at 200,500,1000 etc and I was trying to stick to it. Should have panic sold at 1000 =D.

Next time I'm all out by 10k.

Bought my first coin at ~200$ early November -13 and boy was it crazy when right away the price started to go through the roof  Cheesy Then kept buying up to the top and at the moment it's pretty much +-0 for my buy in price. But the feeling of a rally was glorious, miss that. Hope the day is still waiting when we get to feel it again!

I remember Smiley it was amazing to see the price and sometimes couldn't even believe it. Don't think it will be something we will see again for a long time yet though if at all which is a shame.

During the the April 13 bubble i was like "Bloody fuck BFL, finally deliver!".
During the November bubble i was like "WTF, i´m actually getting a positive ROI after all?".

I remember the 2013 China rally, it was awesome for the people who believed in bitcoins, unluckily I wasn't because I sold all my coins way before it went exponential.

this is the problem with those who complain about the deflationary aspects of Bitcoin.  they assume every single soul will hold Bitcoin to the bitter end a hundred years from now.  they fail to understand that the market is made up of different ppl with different assumptions and views on Bitcoin's potential.  almost everyone will sell at different points on the way up encouraging turnover.  only a few of us will make it to the top all the while the bull is trying to buck us off.

Hard to imagine anyone able to hold onto their coin when the price went up to 1200.

If anyone who hold and didn't sell by then, I can't think of a reason they will ever sell.


I don't see why it's hard to imagine. An ability to hold simply stems from a tolerance for risk, plus the realization that the ultimate probability-weighted-avg expected market-cap of bitcoin is significantly higher than the market-cap was at $1200/BTC.

Although I don't own much, it was thrilling to watch. Especially the speed of price increases... a total frenzy! When Bitcoin surpassed the previous high at ~$250 I already thought that's crazy.

We all know what followed... Shocked

I'm sure, we'll see more buying frenzy in the future. I'll be here to enjoy large parts of this community turning into maniacs again. Cheesy

ya.ya.yo!

I remember that rally too, unluckily I never owned any bitcoins until long afterwards.

Bitcoin speculation hit a frenzy last fall because of China and merchant adoption


It was mostly because of Willybot, actually. The other rallies were also caused by Mt.Gox manipulation shenanigans.

With Gox gone, there won't be any more rallies. That's the sad fact that bulltards and cultists will have to come to terms with eventually.


I'm still on the fence regarding how much effect Willy Bot had on the rally. I think we had a confluence of several issues: China, the US congressional hearings, merchant adoption beginning, and of course MtGox manipulation.

But I'm rolling on the floor laughing at the twits here who accuse me of spreading FUD to "buy in lower". Bitcoin is finished you morons, it's a multi-year bear market from this point on until bitcoin reaches total obscurity once again.

All we can do is remember because it will not happen again. Bitcoin speculation hit a frenzy last fall because of China and merchant adoption, but there is no longer any fuel left in the tanks.

Try harder you cretin.

I guess he wants to buy in at a lower price.

I haven't been around long enough to have gone through any rally. I hope I'll have that chance during September/October/November. Smiley
