It just shows how small Bitcoin (still) is. You feel every wave on a life raft, not on an oil tanker. There are many and bigger waves to come (MtGox coins, government involvement, the occasional sprinkle of China FUD, etc).
Slowly however Bitcoin grows and the impact of external events diminishes, which is already noticeable today compared to two halvings ago.
I agree slightly with Toxic that the move was humbling,,, but I still do not think we can say it was fully responsible for causing the dump (or if it is,,, then it should recover very quickly). We all see the effects of 100s of millions of dollars moving in bitcoin, but they do not last long.
Like you said though, we all see Bitcoin as a 10k coin but in reality it is still very small when compared to everything else. And that is good news for us BTC holders. Keep using!
