Bitcoin Forum

I am happy to share I didn't sell my coins !

If you have bought some at $200 would you sell at $70 BECAUSE OF TECHNICAL ISSUES in the exchange platform ???

No way !

Amen brother. I have seen this before. Unlike a stock, when the price collapses bitcoin does not die.

I have even more coins i had before crash. Im happy because of this. This money are more real than fiat after all ;)

Obviously you never LOOSE money until you actually sell at a loss.  A lot of the volume was just day traders trying to profit off the volatility of the market.  God love 'em! I suspect that only a few traders were actually dumping or panic selling their BTC trying to cut their losses.. Personally I think the wise BTC trader would have a healthy portfolio of not just BTC but LTC and likely another smaller alt currency, ie. Diamond in the rough!.  PPC maybe??

There are so many people hearing about bitcoin and want to get in, but still did not have a chance thanks to either AML or the price is too high risig too quick, now this is their chance. It's not like craps fundamentally broken yet being push to go up and explode miserably, think of netflix last year. Bitcoin is still in its early phase, and shall rise soon.

First when i heard about Bitcoin i thought it was not interesting .. even a bit stupid, but I read more on the subject.

When one understands the idea and starts using the system for payments everything changes.

I have donated to good services. I have ordered goods.

There is no other value store and exchange system that elegant and beautiful.

I am now building a little business based on Bitcoin.

Nothing has changed for me.

Bitcoin is bigger than all of these little problems.  Like others I get frustrated that mtgox can not work out their issues quickly but life goes on.  In the end the capacity issues and software issues will get fixed because it is more profitable to fix them than to let them be.
