It was the Bernake's hint at taper a few weeks ago. It's affecting bonds, PM's, equities down and USD/interest rates up.
All the financial types are nervous as shit and going liquid for the moment.

Most likely because little new fiat money is coming in. Same people buying/selling.
Once the FinCEN thing settles down and it becomes easier to aquire bitcoin in the United States prices will go up.

Services like that, assuming they survive and aren't shut down due to paperwork issues, will help make bitcoin a viable option in the United States and more mom & pop type businesses will start accepting bitcoin payment - peaking the curiosity of their customers and thus increasing demand.
It's not going up because Zhoutonged hasn't made any new videos recently.
It was steady around 13$ for months before, the same thing will happen until we see massive growth, again.
I get interested in bitcoin in early May'2013, so I am a late-comer here, been doing lots of research, built a couple of mining rigs with 4 GPU's, getting around 1.5 Gh/s, seen the value of btc fall from $140 to $120 to $100 currently. Yes, over the long term the value has gone up from $2(?) a year or so ago; however, the short term trend right now is slow falling.
Simply, there are too many coins for sale. Probably the ASIC mfg/holders need liquidity, so they are dumping coins as fast as they mine them.

It was in one of those articles about stuff the NSA does. If you can understand it it is in the MtGox source code.

Why is bitcoin price stuck around the same number and not increasing, how likely is it for bitcoin to steadily start going up again?
Bitcoin need more user now, and some marketing action like "PayPal is accepting Bitcoins" IMO
Na, Paypal is busy working on irrelevant projects, like interplanetary payments:

Pretty sure bitcoin is better suited for this application also, lol.
Depends if the latencies are too high, wouldn't want to try mining up there, even with the great solar power you could get.
Because we have had a massive media supported bubble, and are still in the process of deflating it.

Are you sure it's not increasing:16 months ago: $4
12 months ago: $6
8 months ago: $10
4 months ago: $35
today: $100
It all depends on your perspective, doesn't it?
A nice but mainly a TRUE perspective.

Bitcoin is scheduled to trade in a narrow range of 102 to 108 dollars until September. From September until January it will gradually increase reaching a high of about 118. That is why I am holding strong to my bitcoins till then. The 2014 schedule has not been decided yet.
lol, what's your source?
well, I guess you should be glad its not up yet and buy in while you can.
*Tinfoil hat on*
It's that guy who wanted to peg Bitcoin to $100.

Well, you bought DVD burner, maybe some Reddit crap with it and now what you gonna do with it?
So why buy it?
You may as well use fiat on Amazon.
The whole thing is bullshit for kids anyway. Not ideally or technically, just when it comes to the real life.

Henry Ford said the same thing about cars that were different than the
model-t, but he changed his mind after the public spoke. The public bought GM instead of the model-t because they represented freedom of choice and the future. Before you talk bad about bitcoin check your history, than share an opinion that has credibility instead of vulgarity.

See what happened is a few months ago the price was at about 10, and the market decided that was too cheap and so it started rising. Nobody knows what the price of a bitcoin will be in the future, so the current price will continue until something interesting happens.
It has do with psychology too. 100 is "magic number".
Most likely because little new fiat money is coming in. Same people buying/selling.
