I was surprised to see that the value didn't drop very much if at all when the whole Mt. Gox/Dwolla thing happened. I thought for sure it would cause at least a little panic.
Why would that cause panic? There are plenty of other ways to get money into or out of bitcoin.
Because it is the larger bitcoin exchanger plus the seizure of LR brought some sort of anxiety in the online community.
Bitcoin is something new to me and even though i have read a lot of info circulated throughout the net, it is always my pleasure to be part of a popular forum community and having direct interaction with other bitcoin enthusiasts. I eat myself for the fact that i was not that interested the first time i heard of bitcoins. Now, i'm and eager to learn and take advantage of the full of it.
