YEEEHA!!! HOLD ON TO YOUR SEATS! HERE WE GO! UP UP UP!!
We've not even hit the permanently high plateau yet, this is just a way point till we get to 1,000. And then Off to 100,000. Maybe even 1,000,000. We are going to go straight there. Bitcoin is ready to replace global fiat. Don't wait any longer. BUY ALL YOU CAN!
I just pawned all my jewelry and sold all my gold an silver coins and bought a ton of Coins at 70! I've already max'd my Credit Cards and I will be transferring in money from my IRA soon. Hope the wire clears fast, so I can immediately buy more.
My advice is to RUN RUN RUN TO THE BANK AND EMPTY YOUR ALL YOUR FIAT AND BORROW ALL YOU CAN LIKE ME. BUY IN BEFORE IT GETS TO 100!!!
I am going to be a fucking BILLIONAIRE!
WOOOHOOOO!!!!!!
Posts like these make me doubt to hold BTC for now. Euphoria, euphoria everywhere...

I really don't disagree with you. Going over $62 is not guaranteed. I just thought sellers were being a little emotional selling after a $7 drop had already taken place. They were just hoping for some more down action to take profits on when the downmove was almost finished. We definitely overextended for a moment, but after the $7 drop I was lol'ing at their bear hopes.
I think there isn't any bear hope behind those motions. Bots see a high spread and volatility and try to make a profit. Why not sell at 56 when you can buy back in at 55? That's +EV. I believe there might be quite a few people around that made more than 52->60 today. Not to mention those sells near the bottom were most likely 30 minutes old anyway. Gox lag

Why? I'm sure people selling @ above 30 in 2011 are insanely happy they did. We just had a spike to 62, yes. But that is no guarantee we'll see 62 or above 62 for that matter again. Your logic is flawed, both of you.
Disclaimer: I'm long BTC and Bullish.
Really? Because it's back at $57.73. They could have already sold for more. I'm pretty tired of people comparing this to 2011. Keep being long bullbro. That's pretty much my sentiment too. Even though I'm super bull, my predictions are practically bearish to the outcomes. And if you sold for $30 because you wanted to buy a house with your proceeds, then cool. No one cares outside of us being happy for you. What we ARE mocking are people like fcmatt and Proudhon (assuming he's just not engaging in some sort of long-run performance art) who sold because "This is the top and a bubble and lol better sell!" over and over and are wrong. We are mocking people who post "Good thing I sold at $30 because there's no way it'll ever get higher" and then are wrong and get all butt hurt and try to somehow rewrite history to say they were in the right somehow. I'm sure missing out on the recent rises is already bad enough for them, no need to mock them Let's keep it friendly

I agree with you in that I also think that it's different this time from 2011, however, that doesn't mean other people can't have different opinions and views. No need to make fun of them, some people honestly think this is the top, and eventhough I think they are wrong, I can't blame them for thinking that. Remember 2011: the first day above 30 also closed below 30. Yet the day afterwards it went back above 30 before finally crashing down. If the same thing is happening right now, selling might not be such a bad idea.

People selling right now must have balls of steel.
No. They're just unapologetically stupid. I apparently need to repeat myself. If you sell below $60 you need a trip back to the 3rd grade and work on your primary school degree. "Captain, we just saw people willing to buy at $62."
"Well shit, sell at $55!"

I believe it's a bank holiday in Japan tomorrow, I know in the past this has delayed people moving money into MtGox accounts.
Does this mean there will be no new money on Gox tomorrow or are they operating out of more countries these days ?
They use a Polish bankaccount to accept euros. I'm sure they have other bankaccounts in other countries for different currencies.

The truly shocking thing about this, is that mtgox seems to have been up most of the time!
It's up, but lagging like a mofo

This rally is far from being over You do realize that leverage can be used to speculate against bitcoin too, right? tl:dr; The shorts are coming! Every short that opens has to be closed sooner or later. Repeat after me: For every BTC sold through shorting, a BTC will have to be bought to close the position. Shorting's net effect will be exactly zero. All this will do this stabilize the price, as shorting can temporarily suppress the price if it rises too fast in the eyes of the bears, which is a good thing.

Trading has been resumed. No idea what happened. Bitcointalk was hard to reach as well during that time.

Mtgox trading engine lag: 3223.98s
What the hell is going on?

Yes, fixed now.
Fixed as in the chain containing the large block is now officially orphaned? No, the 0.7 chain is still at 225441 while the 0.8 chain is 225453. Even worse, someones are stilling mining on the 0.8 chain So the difference increased from 11 blocks to 12 blocks? =/

If someone can clarify: Are the prices we're seeing on Mt. Gox "real" or are they going to be reset once the switch back to the old one or whatever takes place?
They are real, BTC on the exchanges is safe, as they are traded between accounts off the block chain. Having said that, we just experienced a longer fork of orphaned blocks. We had many forks, just not as long as this one. This 11 block fork is nothing to worry about

I'm saying buy back at $12.... anyone in their right mind is going to dump their coin.
Everybody is blowing this way out of proportion, I'm buying if we drop just a tiny bit lower. Once people realize it wasn't all that bad, we'll start rallying again as people start buying back in.

...several relatively minor web companies (Wordpress, Namecheap etc) accepting btc.
Are you stuck in the age of AOL dial-up? Wordpress is ranked in the top 25 websites in the world. It's not exactly in a list of "minor web companies." And Namecheap is in the top-1000. Not exactly minor either

Haven't heard this news yet... how big is WinPoker? Are they the company that Gambling911 was talking about? Haven't heard about WinPoker before, I think it's rather small. Still, the iPoker network is huge, so there should be plenty of action. Not sure if I trust this WinPoker with my money though.
