If your Bitcoins drop too much in value, you will have no purchasing power left to even buy bitcrack. If you can no longer get high on bitcrack, inevitably you will be forced to sell. Think about it.
Thus, as an emergency measure, I recommend selling your Bitcoins off for the "To The Moon" game on Humble Bundle.

I don't think it is helpful to think in such terms as the US dollar will fail, bitcoin/gold will win. End of the world scenarios don't happen often and are not a great investment strategy IMO.
no they don't happen often but if you look beyond the mainstream media you'll know it's on its way.. actually it's long overdue, only the QE, low interest rates and market manipulation is keeping the economy going now, they may try keep it propped up for a while longer but it's not entirely in their hands, foreign held reserves being offloaded may trigger collapse at any time.
I suspect most the world will be looted through privatisation, bail ins etc before we switch to a new world reserve though, really we should just say this fiat ponzi scam ends here, the debt is cancelled, bankers go to jail but unfortunately our governments are pretty much owned by banks and corporations so that aint happening without a revolution.
The status quo is a powerful thing. World wide central banks have come out with near unanimous warnings against bitcoin in the last few weeks. They are a club, they are controlled by the private banks who own their respective governments. I think bitcoin is so revolutionary that it is a race of internet user adoption as a payment method and store of value vs a systematic attempt to marginalise it by government, banks and the mainstream media. Youth of the world will decide the fate of cryptocurrency - and very quickly I think.
Price dropping on gox. Time to walk away from the computer for a few days.

Seems that Overstock is already accepting Bitcoin. Wasn't this supposed to happen somewhere around the second quarter?

No denying if they got that process rolling and it goes smooth we'll be at a tipping point on business accepting it as payment

+1,
Bitcoin also helps to people to discover the ponzi that fiat money is.

That almost makes me a little more bearish. 
Contrary to your assumptions, I am flexible on these matters too.
I don't know, just surprised because of your recent post that made me think you would wait for years if necessary.Contrary to your assumptions, I am flexible on these matters too.
I applaud anyone who doesn't succumb to the highs from bitcrack.
By the way, Emptygox is now the world's third largest exchange if we exclude the fake/0% volume Huobi, and this is even including all their non-USD currencies http://bitcoinity.org/markets/list?currency=ALL&span=7d

Don't like the looks of it, and I don't see that changing very soon. Ergo: (relatively small) re-arrangement of my position complete. Just to let you know, arepo 
the outcome is still fuzzy short-term, but it doesn't look good for the coming week, that's for sure. i'm still expecting a bearish formation up to $875 +/- $10 on stamp before we break under the short-term bottom, but good call on the most recent move down. it's hard to make intraday calls better than chance, and so my focus is usually on risk management, and while i did take a small loss i quickly recouped it and more with a slight re-arrangement of my position as well
--arepo
Problem is there is no buying. Hard to make a bearish wedge pattern if you can't even move in an upward direction off a bounce.
My gut feeling is that there was a lot of enthusiasm that the new year would bring tons of new money right off the bat and in truth the new year hasn't. Its almost like buying the rumor selling the news.
I think we are bearish for at least a little bit now.
That almost makes me a little more bearish.

That almost makes me nervous.

If only I could fart bitcoin out my unicorn ass!
I've tried many times and even ended up in the ER on one occasion. Several coins that symbolized fiat currency were removed from my rectum. I embarrassingly explained that I had attempted to create bitcoins through intestinal alchemy.
