Actually I exited the market a few months ago, I'm waiting for BTC to crash to below $50 so I will buy back in and be an early adopter 2.0 :)

sorry bitcoin would be fully dead before it crash to under $100, no more rebound but you are just joking and won't buy during that trend anyway
There isn't enough volume to take any of these price moves seriously. It could go back to 1000 for very little.

That's why crashes happen, because a lot of people just like you think it is dead. Remember: "buy when there's blood in the streets" - a simple phrase but incredibly difficult to actually do it.

For me, they are going to manipulate the market again, make it crash and then pump it.

holders have lost about 50%+ 72%
(1100-300)/1100 = 0.727

1) you are an obvious troll

2) few bought at 1200.

3) without holders there is no bitcoin price

November one happened, because there were only few wanting sell Bitcoins. So yes was bubble of few.
The most did nto sold before bubble went to $1000. All had chances to do it, since it was not instant.

Lets see... since bitcoin would have to drop to around $10 for me to start 'losing money', it has a long way to go before then.  I'll let you know once it drops 50% for me.  Thanks for caring brah.

It's sad that some people are so ass hurt about not getting in sooner. Get out of the basement a little more and enjoy life.  Fuckin noobs.

How many of these shitty threads are you going to make?   How do I feel?  I started buying in the single digits and I feel fan-fucking-tastic.  :-*

Me? I'm a johnny-come-lately who paid double digits. I feel great, despite slightly raising my overall average cost by buying a couple dozen more coins as the price has fallen through the $400-$300 range. Then again, I'm a realist, not some starry-eyed dreamer with some Brony-like fantasy of "early adopter 2.0".

How do the people feel who sold at $10 after the dead cat bounce from $2?

ERm, why is it even called manipulated? Just more like a stream of bad events..

I made a plenty of money in the 2013 bubble by riding the ups and dumping before or during the downturns.

Permanent holders who will never sell are the losers in this scenario.

Some will have bought for much less than $100 and still have those coins now even though they could have dumped them at $1k+

Yes, events like MtGox, China semi-banning bitcoin, and the heartbleed bug helped crash the price.

This isn't how I think of it, and most people werent foolish enough to hold for that long (i hope). I would love to see these shadowy men keep pumping bitcoin so that i can keep winning lol. I have been buying during the dips so my wallet is packed full of bitcoins. Hopefully this time we go past 2k

I agree (although I don't think the heartbleed bug had anything to do with bitcoin's price declining). 2014 has been a bad year for bitcoin because a lot of things have all happened to cause the price to decline and people have been given good reasons to sell in large amounts.

If it was not for gox and SR2 getting hacked, then the price of bitcoin would likely be much higher then it is today
