I think we are just appreciating cheap buy in prices on the Christmas period after a couple of stunts from Coinbase and Bitcoin.com - Wait until the new year, Bitcoin is going to hit new heights! Look forward to 100K in 2018!
Positive points of view will bring this coin to a new height, bitcoin as we knew it always bouncing back and surprising very time it moves, I don't have any idea what can be the next value after the new height but I'm always positive that it will bring good value after this year.

Its better to buy some coins right now while the price of bitcoin is at low. That way, you can earn a lot of profit the price start pumping again. Hehe

im more gladly to see bitcoin prices dropping rather then climbing high so fast and crash eventually..

LOL, I think he just wanted to create a panic selling to be able to invest in bitcoin at low price. I don't think bitcoin will crash anytime soon. It will dump but will also pump. The problem is we can't figure when this will happen.

Mt.Gox was merely the trigger point for a long and protracted downturn, so yes you can compare it.
If you do compare them, then it means you want the crypto scene get into a long recession. Because Bitcoin is not alone.
I think that it's not the case. I am more concerned on when the recovery starts.
Maybe all you want is to milk these markets, but if another Gox happen you'll have nothing to milk for years.
But it's a good moment to scare the shaky hands for some extra bucks, right?

This change has also something to do with holiday season and most probably spending money for others and Fear to lose their money, It is now the advantage of True Trader, so honestly, time to buy people.
I'll go again get my popcorn
I'll go again get my popcorn
but it will be cheaper tomorrow
If you are afraid then go and do panic selling. If you think the profit you have is enough, then better cash in right. There is still a probability it will still go down tomorrow.

Right now the Bitcoin price is down 33% from the peak only 5 days ago
The largest previous impact was the Mt. Gox collapse in 2014. As per wikipedia: "From 1 February 2014 until the end of March, during the period of Mt. Gox problems, the value of bitcoin declined by 36% "
So this means the crash today - which is still ongoing with prices declining - is as big an impact, but has happened in only 5 days versus 2 months for Mt. Gox.
...and the price is still going down....

The price had to go down after what happened in the past weeks. It's healty for Bitcoin and it had happened in the past with all cryptos, including BTC!

This is not a crash but a natural flow of things right before holidays. With Christmas in sight most people sell their crypto (btc) to buy presents and various things, that's the reason why market cap went down 100 Billion in less than 24h. Folks, just relax and wait the January, 25k $ will be attacked easily.

I just got through running around the block in my underwear waving my arms around in a state of panic.

In December 1st the price was around 9700$, so yeah, there's plenty of room for collapsing more.
It's disappointing for me because of the timing, but yeah.. nothing is perfect.
The bottom is 15k, is 12k... many have predicted a fall to 50% so it would be under 10k! Well, the same predicted that after that huge fall it'll go to 50k, but looking now on the market makes it hard to believe.
*Sigh* not much to do now excepting to wait and see....
Before Mt Gox Bitcoin was around 1200$ from what I know. Then the decline was quite long, from dec 2013 until sub-200$ prices in 2015. That's a 6x fall. I don't think Bitcoin will go 6x down again (to 3300$), so I can't compare with Gox.

Perhaps Youbit going down after being hacked is your connection to the time of events of the Mt.Gox downfall?
Honestly this was bound to happen, and I’m glad the dip is finally happening. Then we find a new floor and move up again from this.

There was a crash from $5k to $3k (40%) in September within just a few days.
Close. The drop was from 4950 to 3226, being 34.8%.
December 22, 2017, 02:29:22 AM
It went up to fast and is correcting now.
Expect a big retrace soon to about 15k.
Expect a big retrace soon to about 15k.
i was talking about the same thing earlier i believe the correction is between 12-14k
We are now at 12.6k and still dropping.....
It is part of the correction. Don't worry about it. If you are really afraid of it. Better sell your coins and cut your loss. But if you are still confident in bitcoin then hold it.
