mind you the bitcoin foundation would love it, say it legitimized bitcoin. i think they have no reason to live if they don't file an anti-trust action against APPL.

i think an e.u. directive requiring registration of bitcoin addresses to a chartered financial institution would really shake things up. it wouldn't need to be legit, just so long as it was picked up by bloomberg and maybe reuters. pray god that it doesn't happen now or i will be blamed.

the effect on the western markets if, say Huobi, crashed to zero in the next 24 hours?
if you can arrange that, try to arrange it for evening in the u.s. to maximize the number of tarders watching the tape, to shake loose the most panic sells. the book is thick with deep order ladders, so it wont take long for the slim band linking the blue world exhanges to the red ones to snap, but the selling would be hot for a little while. it would have more effect albeit slower in onset, if the tape out of china stopped after a rapid 5 pct decline i think, but even then you are only going to get the twitchy over extended types in the absence of news. positions are hardened about china. a shock from a new direction would be more likely to create a self-sustaining spreading panic.

I think we've been stable recently because most of the usual manipulators don't want to buy back at a loss...
That's as reasonable as any other explanation I can think of. Someone up-thread, like maybe 20 pages ago, said something to the effect of 'the weak hands are out of the market. The potential buyers are waiting for lower prices. The potential sellers are waiting for higher prices'. If true, then that would add to the seeming stability.

Not every body has to understand every body 
I understood but when you have the urge to randomly call someone a bubble, it just has to be done.

Should consolidate around $790 today; consolidation at $825 by the end of the week.

I guess the slow decline phase has started as it was predicted earlier.

Interesting discussions these last few hours.
Let me ask you, who are smarter than I, what do you think would be the effect on the western markets if, say Huobi, crashed to zero in the next 24 hours?

Regarding US capital gains changes, I doubt many hodlers are looking to trade in dramatic fashion tomorrow to avoid the 2014 hike, but I'm not Nostradamus.
edit: spelling error - holders to hodlers
I am under the impression that day tarders cannot possibly reduce taxes anyway by opening a new position and/or transferring coins offline. Is this correct?edit: spelling error - holders to hodlers
The US capital gains changes took effect Jan 1st 2013, so it is 2014 which is the first return year. If CGT is to be saved then bitcoins would have to have been sold in 2012.
This is correct. Again, I was too slack in posting that to begin with.
