Title: 6/15 Difficulty Increase & current price volatility Post by: bitcoinminer on June 12, 2011, 03:17:44 AM So bitcoinwatch is predicting a 40-50% difficulty increase by my guesstimate sometime early Wednesday morning.
My thoughts, which are complete guesses in the dark, with all the volatility, I think we're going to see the price settling back down around $14/BTC, and then I think it will slowly creep back up towards 20 over the next week or so. I was a little alarmed at first with it dropping like a rock, but looking at the market depth, there are hundreds of thousands of dollars waiting in the $8.00-$10.00 range on the bid side, which tells me a lot of people are looking for a new floor to jump back in. I think a lot of people cashed out at those higher prices, and are sitting on their USD waiting for the correction to sort itself out. I think we'll briefly see it touch down to 7 or 8$ this weekend, and then mon/tues/wed we'll see heavy volume with slow increases up to around $14, and then see it test $18-$20 over the next week or two. These are all just gut feelings, I just wanted to put this down in writing, so I can look in a week or two and see if my gut instincts are correct.

I wanted to get my feelings out and someone with allot of BTC that probly contributed to the drop of the btc value is deleting my post. Bow keep show your true colors. Im not trolling not like everyone that brand new. I was expressing the value and the trust now compared to cost of mining after Difficulty goes up monday or so. Wont be worth cost wise to even try if the value is so low if my opinion is wrong then post dont delete thats acting llike scared little btc seller.
