Agreed. A little stability is great for the market overall.

I didn't realize that

Hold on to your pants guys...its gonna get crazy.  

Meant, hold onto your pants for weeks and weeks (maybe months), the market might drop (or it might not) and it might burst all the way down (or it might not).

And as for your money disappearing bullshit, we went from $266 to $105 in less then a day. That must have been magically money that had the ability to disappear, but this new money disappears much more slowly. So you don't know where BTC is going, and you don't know what happened to BTC in the past. You're 0 for 2.

When you predict the end of the world, tell people to sell their investments, have a pretty chart with lines, that pretty much means you're trying to buy back in. Even if you weren't, turns out you were wrong and should probably stay quiet until God tells you where BTC is going again.

Hopefully no one listened because they probably lost money. Everytime a day trader sells his BTC, he runs to the forum and shits FUD until he can buy back in. We get it, you want the market to drop so you can get back into BTC. Act like a normal adult and save the drama. We don't need a new thread, we don't need chicken little charts, and stop telling people to buy or sell.

Ranting is for the wall tracker thread, it's easier if we keep all the histrionics there.

9 days ago you said it was about to get "crazy" and "this bubble is going to pop all the way". And 9 days later, it hasn't gone down.

When you're that dramatic, have charts, and you end up being wrong, you should probably take a break from forecasting BTC. At least stop making threads and bumping your old (wrong) predictions. Maybe stick to posting in the other 300 TA threads until you're back on your feet and you're confident enough to be starting threads with the "next big crazy move" that likely won't happen.

Are you kidding?

It's been 6 days, everyone who downloaded the wallet, they probably still have another good 8 months until the blockchain finishes downloading. Hang in there, the China wave is coming, and it will be huge!

I agree. A lot less panic. The longer we're above $100, people generally accept that $100-$130 is a reasonable range/value for BTC. If Mtgox goes down, that doesn't mean it's about to hit $50. Before people were very skeptical of the value during the run up to $266. The longer we stay here the more "normal" and accepted it gets. A "crash" has turned into value buying for day traders and bots. Every DDoS has less impact, people wait it out and continue on their way. Less panic, more stability. Hopefully we keep some volatility. ;P

This might be a "lost money and I'm pissed" ddos. Haven't seen much trade lag, looks like more of an attack on MtGox and not so much on the exchange itself.

It's not just bots.

The site has been up and down. So plenty of "real" people were unable to get on. Lots of BTC businesses use the api to make trades, like Bitinstant. I also believe there are trading platforms that use the api to do trades on MtGox. I don't think the drop is just trading bots.

It's all good. Jaroslaw is just pissed we're not at single digits yet. And give the level of movement, the chart is still fairly accurate.  

You really can't be this retarded. Are you new to the internet? The internet is giving away knowledge for free. Lots and lots of very smart, talented, successful people are part of online communities and part of what they do is giving advice. DIY forums are full of really good tradesmen (plumber, electrician, carpenter) who are constantly interacting with novices offering great advice. Coding forums have plenty of really really really talented coders who jump into all kinds of discussions. Years and years ago I was on a popular poker forum, discussing different strategies of a particular hand, and Daniel Negreanu joined in and gave his opinion on how he'd play it. Engineering/Robotics forums are some of the most helpful/amazing communities you'll find. And of course day trading/stocks there's a lot of great resources and helpful people out there.

Just because you have no idea what you are doing, doesn't mean there aren't a lot of bright people here. There's millions changing hands every hour on the exchanges, it's not all Bitcoin miners making it up as they go along. If you wanted to get into day trading BTC, you'd be an idiot not to come read this sub-forum. Doesn't mean it's all great information. Doesn't mean there isn't a lot of bullshit. But to completely write it all off, is moronic. People like to talk about their passion, and talk about things they are good at. People generally like helping others. There's been some decent advice in this thread, he's a little better off then he was before, which was probably his goal.

The fact the premise of his thread bothered you, is something I'd look into. There are some amazing self help forums on the internet. You can get help dealing with passive-aggressive behavior, anger management. delusional jealousy and autism. The first step is admitting you have a problem. Good luck!

Bitcoin stability (excluding MtGox), hope this doesn't become a thing.

Yeah all their numbers are off from what I'm seeing. btccharts.com, mtgox live and bitcoinity are all the same, clarkmoody's order book is way off.

It's 1300 BTC for $108.16 and you said 107.

Secure

Mt.Gox is protected by Prolexic and certified by VeriSign, which means all communications with our servers are encrypted with SSL technology.

I'm seeing much different numbers for Gox. 109.56, down to 107 is 2k BTC

What exchange are you on?

Not really. DDOS attack is usually 100,000s of requests a second. We're probably like 2,000. =)

Trade with confidence on the world's largest Bitcoin exchange!

Reliable

We're always on. Buy and sell Bitcoin 24/7/365 with the world's most sophisticated trading platform.

$109.20

Gox is up for me, $109.26
