What is Karpeles doing? Isn´t it funny, some people steal bread to survive and get in jail and some people steal millions and swing their dicks in freedom...

Bitcoin needed Gox'ing as a hard lesson learned.  They always say history is the greatest teacher, and though painful, was necessary for Bitcoin to survive and thrive.

With the advent of Noble markets, Gemini, imminent launch of GBTC and COIN, it's all a matter of time before the memory of Gox will be in the rear view mirror.

I think the last price of the final goxxing is a reasonable target to where the other exchanges might end up.

I'm bullish on bitcoin long term and have to say that we are at about the right price. I agree with you that the mt gox wily bot misrepresented the price until mt gox crashed but in april of 2013 the price did reach around 226 which was quite a big jump from 13 earlier in the year in Jan and that was due to an event like Cyprus. Bitcoin offers an alternative to the banks and gold and more millennials and people from different countries around the world will keep adding to the user base once they see the benefit just like I did. It only takes and event like Cyrpus when their government froze their citizens bank accounts to cause people to search for alternatives that grant them more freedom and this technology has that value. It just needs to be easier to use for the non tech savvy which I think is not to far off. 
I know people in Greece that are storing their money literally under their sofas... and I know some (the non clueless) that are using BTC to store their wealth, which is a place you can trust a lot more right now even with the given volatility given its early age, than governments that can make you lose tons of money.
People will need a couple years more of being smacked around by institutions until they learn the lesson.

the willybot knocked the price around and sucked in alot of speculators.
assuming most were in it for the short term gain and not because they fundamentally thought bitcoin itself was a great idea then most will have been exiting since Nov 2013.
so in thinking about where the price might go now it seems sensible to try to guess when the bot fooled the market.
if it was not until that month then Oct 2013 is a point we might go back to - it had an opening price of $123 and closed at $198. we are not far off the closing price now. However the price jumped 61% in that month so it looks like some decent amount of speculation was going on.

so if people want a rough guide to where we might end up

- if you are bullish then it maybe say $170-$200.
 - if you are bearish you might go back in time a bit to feb 2103 when the opening price was $20 and closing $33 with a similar % rise for the month (65%). so the price now might go to say $26 -$34.

time will tell but since despite all the positive things coming up in the next 12 months and which are far more positive than bitcoin's prospects in 2013 we have no decent demand happening.
so I see at least the price going down another $30-$50 easily and if no buyers move in a slow drop down to sub $100. Sad
 





This is a very long term game. When everyday people start seeing the benefits of BTC over the traditional methods it will happen. Meanwhile take it as a blessing to be a pioneer and get to be able to own entire BTC's without it being mission impossible. Don't stress, it took 20 years for Average Joes and Plain Janes to start sending emails to each other.
