It has occurred to me that given bitcoin is no longer a shorting opportunity, all the bears and noisy trolls seem to have vacated the building 
Well they've tried & tried & tried to force the price down.
They've failed that's probably why they've gone quiet.
I think we'll begin to creep up any day now, possibly touching 270 before the end of June.
Coins are still cheap, I think we've reached the bottom, I suggest people buy in NOW before we begin a rise.
Could we see a dump then a steady raise in the price ?

Current log down trendline at about 277. Will be 258 by end of June.
Will be 1258cny by end of June. Or lower.
FTFY
If you are looking at the trendline, then you are wrong.
If you think the price will be that low, then good luck - bulls will buy any prices below here aggressively. The great thing about the price settling in this range is that one bit of positive news and we could cross the trendline in less than 24 hours - resulting in heavy technical buying. Bears will have to force the price lower to keep it from technically retesting the trendline. They need some shock and awe selling to do that and try and move the price down to a new lower plateau. Each time that becomes more difficult because bulls like me will buy increasingly more coins with every attempt. The longer this boring phase continues the better IMO. Shorting btc stopped working reliably some time ago.

Bears need something spectacular to break us lower. Bulls just have to hang on..

Rumors in the interwebz are that FIFA president Blatter is the real boss behind BTC-E and various other crypto institutions. It seems like he is trying to get out ASAP through exit scams before the yankees can steal all his money! According to Roger Ver he(Blatter) owns more than 20% of all coins.

"Like cheques, drafts and wires, [bitcoin] is now part of the panoply of payment mechanisms (
), part of normal commerce. We have a responsibility to follow normal commerce and its abuse. Our role as stakeholders is to manage that abuse – we owe it to that community."

In order to accelerate retail banking innovation and simplify payments, the European Commission is mandating standardized API access across the EU.
The initiative is part of the European Commission’s Directive on Payment Services (PSD), which aims at “establishing a modern and comprehensive set of rules applicable to all payment services in the European Union.”
European Banking Authority Emphasizes Promise of Distributed Ledgers
The proposal includes a revision to the Directive on Payment Services (PSD2) called Access to the Account (XSA2), which would require banks to provide standardized API access to third parties under the auspices of the European Banking Authority (EBA) by 2016.
As we’ve discussed in the past, creating standards, clear rulesets, and opening access to systems is a boon for innovation and ultimately the consumer. As the European Commission noted, having the same rules across Europe and transparent payment systems results in “faster payments, better consumer protection, and a wider choice of services.”
The European Union’s Mission to Transform Payments
These changes essentially open up traditional incumbents to outside competition by allowing any regulated entity access to accounts. But even without this new legislation, many banks are already moving toward this direction. French bank AXA, for instance, has already opened up its platform to third-party integration. Fidor, which announced that plans to integrate Ripple last year, is another long time supporter of open APIs.
