I'm quite frustrated by this right now.
Girlfriend doesn't want to hear about bitcoins. Parents tell me I am a dreamer and it's just virtual money unlike the 50k Euro they put in a deposit bank account as a gift to me two months ago but forbid me to use it for buying coins. What a waste.
Friends don't want to hear about bitcoins either and rather love giving me free unwanted advice to sell it all. I cannot celebrate with any-fucking-body except a few old timers from the bitcoin meetup. That is sad.
I should use some to buy me a fucking GT-R and decorate it all around with giant bumper stickers in the shape of middle fingers.

dudes. Look at the order book. https://www.bitstamp.net/market/order_book/See that very shallowly sloping line on the left? That's bids. See the cliff on the right? That's asks. Looking at this, it appears that you have deep demand and short supply. Usually that means a price goes down. You're cute.

I understand millimeters and micrometers and so do most Europeans. I mean hey it's not mebibytes. Can we use directly microbits? I always loved the idea of having millions of something. I believe such choice is forward thinking. And it leaves just a couple of decimal places for the satoshis, which would be like cents. Even uneducated people have a grasp of the concept of cents.

For Xmas I'd expect one USD to be worth around 0.8 millibits. But it could be much less.

1700 coins dumped down from 837 to 800 on Stamp... boy that was either careless or plain silly. Someone has too many coins to care, I guess.

BitStamp has always worked great for me. The only issue I experienced was my fault (although their support would not get my full marks). I can't say the same of MtGox for sure.
In regards to the missing transfers problem, here my conspiration theory based only on posts in this forum:
* there has been a software fuckup starting 12.11.2013 and ending 15.11.2013. * they communicated about it first on 18.11.2013 and then on 20.11.2013 said it's all resolved. * it's not resolved for some and support has gone unresponsive on them: some transfers on 12.11.2013 seem to have ended up a black hole.
Now fixing this one is a delicate matter and depends on why and how the data is missing (hardware fuckup? insider theft? bank stole the money? do lawyers need to be involved?). Every cent needs to be accounted for. Some people are surely trying to scam BitStamp by claiming they sent money they never sent. Also they need to be careful about their communication because admitting the fuckup might be damaging for their business. And so would be hiding their heads in the sand and hoping it all goes away.
Once more BitStamp has always worked great for me and I hope they do the right thing and restore everyone's faith quickly.

Yet I have to see the big drop to 300-500 that so many oldtimers here seem to be expecting.

It's back. Last 24h price: down -3.8%. It will break up any moment, where "any" is defined that 5x the money is needed compared to any previous breakout in Bitcoinhistory. Still waiting Do you mean "up" as in this? (sh*t I can't work)

Well it's undeniable that this is the first Monday that China has stopped pumping.
And - not that TA matters that much, but anybody else sees a pennant on the 15 min 2 hour chart right now?
EDIT: corrected

So what do you guys think? Is there really resistance at 800? Consolidation or crash? The volume is kinda low...

What happened to OP on this great thread? We're close to $10bn market cap... where does that put us now?
Apparently he deleted most of his recent posts, so he must have a reason to hide. Dunno that move is somehow connected with the fact he has recently become a multi-millionaire (search for "Vladimir's club") or with his recent trust rating of -4.

I wonder if he's going to show up his face at the btc1k party. There might be some people there who'd love the chance to show him their true appreciation.

Less than half the coins I had at my peak in September 2012. The rest has gone lost to poorly performing Ripple, GLBSE shutdown/scam, or changed into even more poorly performing fiat money.

Sleep is a privilege for people whose reality is not changing as quickly as ours is. It is so incredible that I believe my unconscious needs to fabricate an expectation of impending disaster.
I have savings accounts that have lost their value in coins by 5 times since last time I saved in fiat... Like two months ago! I don't see a point in keeping more savings in fiat. All I need is sufficient acceptance of bitcoins by merchants so that I can get rid of my poorly performing monthly fiat buffer and use coins for food and everything else instead. If, say, 20% of all merchants accepted bitcoin then it would be enough for me to discard the fiat-only accepting ones. Alternatively a quicker method of converting back to fiat (as in hours not days) could do it for me.

At this point my tinfoil hat theory is that all of the transactions from Fri 15.11.2013 have been lost, and they are going through the logs manually to figure out what was sent/received.
