It seems the USD vol @ end of play was a record breaking

$12,257,633.95

That was a massive amount spent by the bears to get us to....

...not far off where we were this morning!



Night all - and thanks for all the fish Smiley

You could also say that people spent $12,257,633.95 to end up below the price we were at earlier.

In other words, what you just said is a biased pile of horse shit and doesn't mean fuck all.
In contrast to yours which is full of knowledge-based wisdom of course Wink

What's with the aggression?!  It's just another point of view.  I've tried a number of times to ask you and the couple others on your trip to substantiate what you're talking about but no, you'd rather ignore those posts and just spout more vitriolic bollocks.  WTF?!

I think it's interesting that we see these flash crashes but not so much the opposite, the price running up crazy followed by a rapid return to normal. I'm sure it means something, probably about psychology & stuff. If I believed in TA, I might name it something and spout some mumbo jumbo...

I hope someone comes along soon and takes the market off them with all the trimmings a big exchange needs for the upcoming big players, Trade Hill maybe?

The other thing we need is an easier way for new U.S. investors to get started.  Coinbase would be a great service if it worked.  All they ever say is, "Sorry, Coinbase has reached its maximum number of bitcoin purchases for the moment. Please try again later. We'll continue raising this limit over time."  If your're willing to keep trying the button hour after hour, they might eventually allow you to buy 10 BTC per day.  Whoopee.

Sending international wire transfers to Japan is too expensive, both in time and money.  Dwolla takes forever to set up, limits the size of your transfers, and is down today due to Dos attack.  Other services seem to charge ridiculous fees, if they accept USD at all.  

Why all the entry barriers?

I've been trying to buy bitcoins for weeks with very limited luck.  Can someone tell me a good way to get USD to some exchange where I can actually buy some serious bitcoin?

One thing that's stopping the growth of Bitcoin is how difficult it is to actually buy them!


I live in country Australia where people are not overly interested in Internet things, at least the people I know. It has been easy for me to get money in and out of Gox, its the constant lagging they have that worries me. As far as other exchanges go I worry some about them from the hacks and losses of the last 2 years, Gox seems to have got their act together.
Good luck with getting your BTC, hope it all works out for you, I cant give advice on how to's in the States.

Sorry for pic spam but I was able to watch the whole thing unfold.  Order finally got to Gox about half an hour too late to capitalize, alas.

Short of seeing companies talk about millions or billions that we as regular people have no way of really seeing, this market is amazing to watch.  So many people with money that it's mind-boggling and yet, not really.  Welcome to a world economy.

First they sold...


and sold...


and sold more but also bought...


Finally, the low:


*coughs* so "low":


Crazy buy upwards followed:


More deep-pocket buyers followed (probably because they just profited):




and then we pretty much recovered:






Crazy traders.  Congratulations on you guys that took profits to buy more coin.

We now return you to your regularly desired photos of wall-movements

I do not care price, nor volume, I need some graph of MtGox lag! Seems its on its highs, today.

just caught a few sentences of Magicaltux about this: he's rebuilding the engine. The current lag problem is "by design": allowing users to have orders without necessary funding, because that means you have to trickle down order status updates when a users balance changes. It seems makes sense: a lot of fight between threads reading and writing to/from the orderbook table.

So the change is to disallow users to place orders they don't have the funds for and disallow withdrawal of funds allocated to orders.

What might the implications of this change be?

1. some bots will break, some sloppy habits will be broken
2. the engine will be capable of executing orders much, much faster
3. MtGox might have a shot at not pissing off all their customers

Bear fail! Grin
I tried to buy at $75-78 but got goxxed.  I didn't predict the panic so I didn't have bids Sad
Congratulations to those that did!
Same here,I went out for the day and would have loved to get some coin during that time.

Dear bears: Thanks for wasting everyone's time!

I love the Bears, it isn't a waste of time but an opportunity to check your position.
Like my 5year old said this morning before I LOL'd "wow those [Bitcoin] bulls are happy today." I think he believes the market is driven by animal, and I don't think he is far off.

But at times like this flash crash it's not so good.  I just tried to buy 20btc for my brother for GBP after he failed after finding blockchain.info/pingit is down and he couldn't get his head around LB himself.  Then after that by the time I'd found my first choice was actually out of coin the price the opportunity had gone within the price range he wanted to pay .  In the UK the problem is even worse than the States I think!

Yet despite all this enough buying pressure  is getting through to the markets for this phenomenal growth.  Surely that tells us something!

speedybitcoin.o.uk are pretty OK. They buy at market and there's a locked-in GBP to other-currency exchange built in but if you just want to buy bitcoins quickly without too hefty a cost, give them a look. Keep en eye on the strength of the pound vs other currencies though, they've already done that conversion and factor it into your costs

http://LocalBitcoins.com

First of all localbitcoins.com seriously needs a rewrite of their home page, FAQ, cash exchange guide, etc.  I spent 30 minutes reading all that this morning, and at this point I have more questions than when I started reading.  It is not clear at all.

The best I can figure, I'm supposed to drive 31 miles (round trip), meet some stranger in a Starbucks somewhere, hand him a wad of cash, hope not to get arrested on suspicion of executing a drug deal, do some weird exchange codes by cell phone, in order to get bitcoins at $10 above the current market price.  Surely that's not the best solution!

Was going to say you could use Bitinstant but as fast as they are, they might still be slower than other methods, not to mention the fees.
