I mean really though guys what is there to worry about? A bunch of old senators who can't comprehend a bitcoin, whose campaigns are single handily funded by the greedy corrupt business' and banking establishments of the free world that bitcoin was created to combat, sitting around deciding the regulations for said virtual currency. I totally see them welcoming it with open arms.  Roll Eyes

It is the speculation thread, but I suspect China will follow Stamp and Gox in a massive selloff.  They have more weak hands than anybody at the moment, because they represent the most new money.  Should the bearish signals prove to be true of course.

single digits by friday.

Is it possible the price could go negative with bitcoin?

Yes, it is...https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/mike-hearn-foundations-law-policy-chair-is-pushing-blacklists-right-now-333824

Think you grabbed the wrong quote yo...negative value vs black/red listing addresses/coins

gox lag 60 seconds -> panic

It is higher than normal. I see about 30-50 seconds lag indicated on Clark Moody

Right, chinese are a big X factor, most newcomers are weak hands and many chinese are new to the game.We don't know how much money is being injected, how much volume is real and not traded over and over with 0 fees. Another worst case scenario, Chinese authorities can blacklist btcchina website at a whim and panic will ensue.


The great firewall isn't that great. Easily bypassed with the right tools. And the folks that are investing heavily in BTC from China likely know those tools and their way around TGF.

I've personally gone around TGF on many occasions.

Sure it can be circumvented, panic will ensue because of the message that it would deliver: that authorities would be against bitcoin. And most chinese, by fear, abide by the regime's rules.

Not unless you were willing to pay someone to transfer your bitcoin to them...

And here we go. My prediction; large sell off ($350) followed by a prop up the market buy ($400) then massive sell to shake the weak hands and get their coins cheap ($215)

That is one of my biggest concerns.

And TGF is there, people may know there way around it but if BTC goes to black market only with a US regulated market and a black market in China expect a serious nose dive.

They might have weak hands but they cant dump piles and piles as no one there has 10000 coins to drop.



You're wrong. When/if "they" start selling it will be all at once. You take thousands of "them" with 20-50 coins each that Raquel's a heft dump. Combine that with the rest of the world who would love to force weak hands to give up cheap coins and we will see a huge dip.

That may be, but I don't see how that will prevent Stamp and Gox from dumping and in turn them following suit.

Overall sentiment is changing in a bearish direction, very quickly all over this forum.  From people expecting a crash from rising too fast, to Mike Hearns, Coin Validation, etc.  The writing is on the wall. All it takes is for a whale or two to want to be first to take some profits.  In times like these, in USD I trust.   Wink

do you think China gives a sh!t about what the USG is going to force businesses within the US to do?

No.

In time, there will be two BTC markets. The "Legal" market, which is the US-based market, and then the "Red" market... which is the Asia based market.

*fyi*~there is a "red road" market in The States too bud!  Wink

You're forgetting about the chinese. Once they wake up this thing will go up again because they don't really care about any of that.

We just had an upward leg not unlike the 200->350, a correction is due and the weekend coming helps a lot, especially with what happened during the last one. Sub 390 at Bitstamp in a couple hours.
