Shopify is effectively acting as an exchange. Are they FINCEN compliant? If not, only a matter of time before they get shut down.

*edit*

and bitpay was also acting as an exchange, which is probably related to their recent shutting down.

I wonder if this has anything to do with the resilience in price over the past 24hs.

We are waiting to hear about a new MAJOR Bitcoin player news tomorrow... could boost price guidance.

If this has something to do with Bitmit suddenly shutting up shop then we're only in the foothills.

I think it was this (already reported here):

Fear is what is driving this rally.  It's not about utility or long term use, but purely fear of missing the boat.  "Last chance to get in and get rich". "Last chance to own a Bitcoin." I do believe we're going to break $1000 on this fear and maybe more.  The fall however, is going to be something else all together.  

The good news is, no one need sell when it dips....because of the below events.

Bitcoin value doubled in 3 months

19 times in a row

It is a nonsense.
a)  2^19 = 524 288
b)  $266 / 524 288 = $ 0,000507354736328125
2000 Coins for a dollar. Doesn't seem that unreasonable to me. We are talking pre-exchanges and pre-10k Pizza time here.

Price will continue to rise until some of the big holders of coins have decided that this is my price and I should sell.  I think there is still alot of coins in a few hands and not enough to go around for everyone else.

One big risk is big bubble burst followed by Chinese government involvement. They don't like civil and financial unrest.

+1 so spot on

Let's not forget that back in April there was only ONE significant exchange out there... Now many exchanges are moving similar or greater amounts of BTC/fiat and that's why one cannot "manipulate" the market anymore. As posted by gandhibt, there are not so many players with 100K of BTC handy nowadays. Now even a user with 3K is considered *significant* player... And this is gonna look much worse in the near future as more people getting involved...  Wink

19*3 = 57 months. 57 months ago was January 2009.
$400 / 2^19 = $0.001 which was the electricity cost to mine them back then.

Firing it up
I remembered the first barrier, it is called USD 266 on April 2013.

The second wave may be about the infamous debt. I think at the December, if there are more bad news, more mature services introduced, the price will be stabilized at USD $450 per BTC on December 2013.

Politicians will soon be able to accept Bitcoin for their campaigns. BUY BUY BUY

Genius! nothing gets political backing faster then "donations"
Sooo... This makes it a good idea to donate to the most anti-liberty minded politicians who are most likely to be against Bitcoin, in order to disincentivize them to do anything against it. That's weird.

We might see a lot of more well-funded start ups begin jumping into the Bitcoin space soon.  The incentives increase with the market cap.

Naval @3:10, says ~$3-5B market cap range:

We're sitting over $4B at Stamp rates now.  Passed $3B a while ago as well (sat around ~$2B for quite a while).

So I sold 1 BTC at 350 yesterday ...

..... on gox, and its gone up by 40+$ in 24h

Yeah, against my better judgement, I sold 2% of my coins yesterday trying to play the dip.  It missed my buy target by <5$.  Cry  I am glad I bought them back earlier today.
