is this despair, then?

In general it gets like that around here sometimes... regardless of the price

I speculated the same thing a few days back

I recall it vividly Smiley

And that you were quite tired and emotional by that point in the evening Wink

Yeah I can get like that if I have not had an afternoon nap  Wink

  Grin

Yep that was about it : )

The fast show was great...

The most interesting notion that Gox may be being purchased by outsiders makes a TON of sense!!

Imagine you're Mark-- totally sick of running your company, dudes are getting in your way while you're carrying your scrumptious coffee-beverage to work (idiots), and no one really understands your pure awesomeness... you have maybe 10,000 BTC (idk!?!?) and someone offers you millions!! to walk away from gox == yummy coffee-beverages without idiots.

What would you do?

Win-Win-Win

It actually adds up nicely.

The biggest problem is it makes a ton of sense -- since when does Bitcoin operate under such parameters? Wink

I speculated te same thing a few days back
We all know the rocket is going to take off sooner or later.... b b b but d d d do you think they have had their fill of c c c cheap coins yet?? out of Mt g g gox?

<putsontinfoilhatandsparksacrackpipe>

ring ring

"Howdy doody Mark how are you on this fine American day? My name is Mr X and Mark the reason I am calling all the way from NY city today is to make you an offer, I think you should put down your frappacuinno extra large, and park your extra large butt on one of them big blue balls... I have an offer that you cannot refuse, it will keep you in blueballs and extra decorative tubs of coffee for ever..................
.......but first show me your books"

Mark pisses himself with glee and hands over the books

"Interesting so back in 20** this dip in price here what caused this? what is that you say? you halted withdrawals and everyone shit themselves? and the price tanked...... hmm interesting..."

"ok the offer stands...here is a giant stack of cash... but you are now mine!!  dance fat boy!!  dance!-
 
Ahem sorry I mean here is what we are going to do......I want you to halt all Bitcoin withdrawals now..."

Price tanks

Mr X buys lots and lots of cheap coins...

MtGox reopens withdrawals slowly

Price creeps back up

MK announces he is taking early retirement

MtGox gets bought out by a fund, maybe intending to open an NY office in 2015

Confidence re MTGox soars

Price soars

They got cheap entry into the market, and picked up a "distressed asset" along the way  
and played a lovely game of manipulate the market with a healthy dose of fear.

Anyone who trusts the words of "Charlie" is dumb.  You don't know if that's really him, and even if it is, is he really home now?   Was his account hacked.  So much incredible FUD.    Ignore every last shred except facts.

Fact.
1.  MtGox shut off their twitter.  

Speculation: 
Twitter shutoff:  Who does that?  Certainly not a company about to fix their issues and not one that was being bailed out.  If they were being bailed out, they would have used twitter to announce it as it needs to be public quickly I would think.

Charlie quotes:are speculative and who knows if it is really even the kid?  Who would be that silly to spread insider information like that so publically when they are already under federal charges.  That's just asking for trouble when you manipulate a market.



I get you, but the flip side is... "we are about to go bust I need to flee to rio and liquidate my stash.... oh and also very important I must delete my twitter account?"

It does not make sense no matter how you dice it... unless someone else is going to be doing the talking for Mt Gox from now on.

For Bitcoin to become obsolete, something better will have to take it's place. When something better takes it's place, bitcoin holders will have the opportunity to trade bitcoins for the replacement.

Yeah, exactly! That is why it's not so necessary to hodl. I also believe in this idea that bitcoin brought forward, but I just don't believe that bitcoin has a very long life left in it.
I'm not telling here that bitcoin investors deserve nothing. I'll only say that eventually those will get nothing, who will go over the top with their hodling.
Trading is the smart and profitable way to go. You only have to understand that the big fish are after the little fish.

You may be right and you may be totally wrong, and a "few" years may mean 10 years, 20 years , who knows..

I suppose that there is no training or exam required in order to trade at Bitstamp, right?  One can learn by doing?

All I need to do is open an account, transfer in my 500,000 BTC, click on random buttons and see what happens; right? 

 Wink  <-------- just in case.

: ) you should see the daily slaughter that is the Forex market!! (in terms of joe public trading)

NORTH KOREA

You have two cardboard cows for photo ops
The state may or may not have a secret supply of cow
They tell you the cows are created by the great leader from rainbows
If you do not agree and thank them with tears of joy
You become the cow
