That's not manipulation, that's actual damage dealt.

If people are serious, these fights are good. They make us strong. If people run off because they lost money in the glorious "buy BTC, get rich while watching TV" scheme... well, we can just hope there are other kinds of people around.

If that's all they got, I'm good.

Surely, this is not all a coincidence.

We must remember that CIA is oficially & unoficially "interested" in Bitcoin. That may mean many things. They may be trying to either manipulate the currency to their advantage or destroy it, or perhaps both.

These guys aren't stupid.

Indeed, the CIA forced Luke-Jr to argue about BIP16.  They also forced tradehill to suspend.  Or, sometimes similar things happen at the same time, maybe even as a result of eachother.  Meaning one thing on the list that OP posted could've caused another item in the list.  Or, it's the CIA.

I spell Phinnaeus differently, also.

Back on subject: Perhaps Alex Jones should look into all this.

you forgot,
Modern Warfare 3 suddenly can't find a Sabotage game with <125ms ping time

but anyway, I haven't heard of quite a few of those but the actual California investment licensing enforcement with coordinated bank account shutdowns to match blatantly suggest government and private coordination.  Obviously BTC has been around to be taken seriously enough that banks and btc is like when Pepsi buys out some smaller drink manufacturer.  They own almost all drinks because they destroy competition when it's still considered "small but not going away anytime soon."

Popcorn: Why assume incompetence when all these conspiracies are way more fun to discuss? ::)

OMG, WHY in the world did you have to tell me this ?
Now i will have to execute a (surely) long, difficult (if even possible) process of changing my nickname on all of the Bitcoin forums !

Ohhh the pain... It's unbearable.
