I have a little chuckle to myself every time Jorge mentions silk road as having a negative effect on price.

You do realise Jorge that there are more listings on SR 2.0 than was on the original silk road at the time it was taken down. Thats not to mention the other market places such as Agora that are doing a lot of business. Thats the thing with decentralization and prohibition. Its unstoppable.
Well, there are many FBI agents dreaming of promotion, and the original SilkRoad was not enough for all of them.  Wink

Seriously, I haven't paid much attention, but wasn't there a big hack/scam on SilkRoad 2.0 ?

While the advantages of bitcoin for buying illegal drugs and guns may make bitcoin more popular among drug users, gun crazies, and mobsters, it is a negative feature for most everyone else, including potential investors and entrepreneurs.  Like the "election" of Brock Pierce to the board of the Shrem Karpeles & Friends Foundation...

I had read somewhere that bitcoin had been essentially banned in India (as in Russia).  Is that true?



No country have banned Bitcoin.

The new exchange there looked promising. See coindesk.

Rumors , rumors but whenever I hear about the importance of China I feel like puking.
It was a pump based on fake volume and assumptions.

And what is worse , right now people believe that without China we should go back to 100 and ignore every progress made from last autumn.
Actually it is only the koalas who say that.  Real grizzly bears believe that the jump of April 2013 was due to China too (specifically, to Bobby Lee taking over BTC-China), so this is what will happen when China withdraws:

(Actually that is still a rather timid Grizzly because it assumes that the exponential trend before April 2013 has not been affected by MtGOX, Neo&Bee, SilkRoad, etc.)

Picking a nit: the Chinese currency is called yuan, the Japanese one is yen.  (Although the words have the same origin, it would be like referring to GBP as "the British peso".)
Or the US Taler Cheesy
Yes thanks, that seems a better comparison -- I see that "taler" and "dollar" have the samre origin.

gg bears. it FEELS like a bull market now. I know it's wrong to tarde with emotion, but what about hodl with emotion?

Maybe. Trading using other people's emotion is a different matter Smiley
And the mood around here definitely does seem to have changed in the last week. The expectation of a last crash to ~350 seems to have all but evaporated in most quarters.

Are there chinese actually holding bitcoins and not just speculating and trading?
I have no idea and you would be better off asking Chinese members of the forum.
I got some useful responses there by posting the question in English WITH the Google Translate version in Chinese.

To improve the chances of being understood, keep the syntax simple (split into simple subject-verb-object sentences with full stops, use plain words, avoid subordination if you can) and translate the result back to English as a check.
