Then go ahead, try sell bitcoins for credit card payments. Then tell us how it is going. What? The chargeback fest killed your business? That is the reason why no one sells bitcoin via credit cards

All people calling bitcoin a tulip craze don't realize that one of the main differences between both phenomenons is that the tulip craze was not supported by a worldwide digital platform called the internet. I mean the internet seems to be causing a qualitative effect on several phenomenons once they reach a quantitative peak thanks to the ease of interaction the internet provides. Look at the Arab spring, what seemed like a regular discontent or protest that wouldn't achieve much managed to topple whole governments. In my opinion this day and age we are witnessing very nice examples on how quantitative changes lead to qualitative ones thanks to the internet. So trying to predict what will happen to bitcoin using a phenomenon which happened centuries ago without having something like the internet to support it is not very accurate IMO.

So Gox goes up while China didn't do anything really. It's up to 730 doing just fine when suddenly China goes down and instantly Gox and Stamp drop.
Can anybody explain to me how that happens so fast and why?
