Yes what happens when Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt turns to facts?

That can always happen, but it can also become a self-fulfilling prophecy. When does being cautious turn into outright paranoia that feeds on itself and infects others? If you look for bad news you will always find it, if you look for positive news you will find plenty of that around as well. Most of us will be biased towards one or the other and try to think of things that reinforces our own position. In the end nobody has a definitive answer, but those who can think with a clear head and stay very flexible one way or the other usually have an edge. But they can be wrong as well. Smiley

There is only one bad news. => crack RIPEMD-160 => crack SHA-256 => crack ECDSA ... (I think/believe impossible) :-)  so until somebody is able to compute private key from your public bitcoin address, bitcoin will only rise.

what's with all this bearish sentiment.

i guess you been to busy looking at charts to see that bitcoin is on fire!

Most of it comes from the Coinlab lawsuit, the DHS dwolla account freeze and satoshi dice blocking the US.
I think that is a pretty stern combination, but what do I know.  Tongue

CoinLab lawsuit, finally someone with the balls to take over mtgox in the us

DHS dwolla account freeze , yup its official bitcoin is for real.

satoshi dice blocking the US, LOL like thats going to stop anyone


See, you are purposefully missing the point.

Hint: They don't really look like isolated incidents to me.

you're the one missing the point.

Hint: your bitcoins are safe, and when FUD turns to facts...  Grin Grin Grin

Yes what happens when Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt turns to facts?

emotions never turn into fact

I mean then the things that are causing the FUD, turns to facts


no Fear, no Uncertainty , and no Doubt that bitcoin will go up Up UP!  Cheesy

Does anybody see anything other than this same flat trend, that could very well last through the weekend?  Up, down, sideways?

Unless something big comes out of the conference, sideways through the weekend. Next week? I don't mind admitting that I have no idea. Smiley

Lots of good news lately, but lingering uncertainty around the Gox situation has me cautious. If I have to pick, I'm guessing that next week we go up.

Sorry, I couldn't resist Smiley

Well, a 2000 BTC sale can for sure kill a rally (smaller one). I would think for shorting to really really matter, we would have to be talking in the 10's of thousands? Thoughts.

Thanks for the information by the way. We have to look at everything, even those things we don't like to see.  Shocked

As Abandon mentioned, there are already new players coming online, and we'll continue to see more opportunities for shorting as the market matures. I think that's a good thing for market stability.

Yes, IMO a realistic, dispassionate analysis of your investments (or anything really) is incredibly important. I'm definitely a long term BTC bull, but I have to put a lot of effort into staying in touch with reality because I'm my own worst enemy. I've been burnt by my own willful blindness more than a few times. Smiley
