Hey, I have a naive question about this whole DDOS thing. Would it help if Mt. Gox doubled (or x10) the number of servers they have? Even an extra 100 machines can't be that expensive (probably ~$200 K).
1/4 million = not expensive, lol!

Max Keiser is a shill lying twit that's pumping promises so he can line his pockets a little better at your expense. Stop being naive. Anyone with $10bn doesn't need to be circled by a twit on a propaganda news network.
If you say so... Thanks for teaching me this stuff
There is one thing about these high lag dump then rebound scenarios I enjoy: Seeing the bad bears who are about 30 mins too late and they dump right into a huge rally. Too slow, ya jergoff.
Experience and testicular fortitude serve one well in a situation like this.
The DDoS cartel just took 23c from the weak hands.
Would someone let the Teddies back in the room now and give them back their Bitcoins?

Lmao! Bear's be crazy!
Is it really that hard to solve this fucking lag problem? 
Just wait until they add Litecoin.
Bitcoinity roller coaster!
Haha. Perfect. Just what I was thinking of.
You know this for sure because?
Don't get me wrong, I am all for the idea behind bitcoins, but this recent price run up is definitely not due to practical implementation of bitcoin for real world uses. The price is increasing because people have been reading news stories about how a bunch of people became millionaires from investing in bitcoins and they want to do the same. Bitcoins true value as a decentralized currency has been pushed to the side. If there weren't so many people going crazy over the price bitcoin it could achieve a more natural growth.
Bitcoin cannot be compared to any other commodity at this point. We are in uncharted territory. Expect this kind of volatility going forward. These rapid up and down swings are 'normal' for bitcoin and they will continue throughout bitoin's rise. Over time, these '$20 within 1/2 hour micro swings' will merely be little blips on the steady (seemingly steep) upward macro trend
i heard tings
i dunno:
1. bitcoin characteristics....limited supply, infancy stage, etc., growing community, media coverage, business adoption, ATM builds, etcetc
2. look at the chart curve for the last 30 days, 90 days, 6 months....zoom in and out
3. speculation with the promising novel
Those silly bears http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yaXaqKZhQYI 
What? Bitcoin-24 at $240 ?!
Damn. We crashed all the way down to 85% above the price a week ago today 
And that is why I quit trying to play the dip. After the first two sell high, buy back highers in the $20s and $30s I learned my lesson

'Tis but a scratch!!
Damn. We crashed all the way down to 85% above the price a week ago today
