We stumbled all the way down to $40 above the price at the start of the week... my kind of stumble, really.

looks like some people were screwed over in this thread It's amazing isn't it? These "SELL NOW!!!" threads work again and again. People panic so easily and liquidate. Then the thread starter swoops in and buys up bargain coins. Who are these "PEOPLE" you speak of, young fellow? One does not sell bitcoins! Oh, and this crash brought us all the way down to about $40 higher than we were on Monday...

We will see double digits again.
Yep LOL Proudhon has abandoned single digits and is now hoping for double digits Proudhon's predictions are indistinguishable from his wishful thinking.

the article states a negative that only +10M Bitcoins have been issued which is not enough.
these aren't shares, however, which can't be subdivided. these are bitcoins which can be down to 10-8
Well, one ten billionth isn't what it used to be

In the future, you can carry 32 trillion in Bitcoins like this. No, the blockchain is already larger than 4gb. Hmmm... really? I mean, someone with your post count has to know this is a wrong statement.

... History likes to repeat itself?
You are using completely different units for them. The timeframe is the same. Yes, and both years start with the number 2 (2011-2013) sell all the bitcoins!!!

MPEx claims to have a valuation of BTC700,000, which would make it the most valuable bitcoin business of early 2013. Their main business is to issue options on USD/BTC exchange rate. As they claim the position is in excess of BTC100,000, it is obviously impossible to hedge in other exchanges. The risk is instead borne by "bondholders", auctioned out monthly, who will either win a fixed percentage on their bond amount, or lose a prorated amount of MPEx trading loss. In March they lost over BTC27,000. I suspect the exchange has blown its risk management and will likely default in April/May if the USD/BTC rate keeps increasing as it has done.The idea that bondholders take the hit if the month turns negative, is a clever one. But if you personally guarantee the black swan of bitcoin's disproportionate rise in excess and/or absence of enough bondholders, you play a dangerous game. The owner has clearly grown desperate as he sees his end coming. The owner has something against me, and is likely to respond with hatestorm once again, skipping his chance to clarify my suspicions with actual facts, (which would be easy if everything is in order). Do your own due diligence. I hold absolutely no long or short positions in S.MPOE or anything listed there. You know how much sympathy they get from me? Yeah, about that much.

In the future, you can carry 32 trillion in Bitcoins like this. Lost USB drive = lost 32 trillion USD Rubbish, of course. Lost USB drive, go to bank, open safe deposit box, pull out paper wallet, restore, hello 32 trillion nice seeing you again. Gold and cash cannot be backed up, Bitcoin can.

Not that true now, Virtex has been in advance on MtGox on price move for few weeks now.. I dont think MtGox will "dictate" the market price for long.. Following both, Virtex moves before MtGox for almost a month, and has always been followed by Gox.. Maybe we will soon see a BTC price expressed by an average of a number of exchange instead of MtGox price only ! I hope so ! Gox has also been lagging BTC China quite a bit in the last few days.

This looks a lot more like a true top, so, yeah, pop. Don't let the bouncing around fool you.
Now, Proud, how exactly are we supposed to shoot upwards now with the Gox trade engine all screwed up... really?
|
|
|
The problem is that whether we use Gox is irrelevant as long as there are big fish (Coinlab, Coinbase, Bitinstant, et al) using it.
Gox has made too much money for too long to be having these problems.

I understand the need for liquidity. But liquidity will follow service, not the other way around. There's no reason why Coinlab, Coinbase, Bitinstant and so on shouldn't have parallel deals with multiple exchanges.

Bear trap... again...
they... will... never... learn

This happens every week.
if you think so!! I will sell now while the value is still high Knock yourself out... literally.

I thought all the users were supposed to be over at coinlab by the 22nd
Live -- March 22 We'll have everyone moved over by March 22!
Did I miss something, misinterpret what they were saying or are they just behind?
They pushed it back "a couple weeks" on March 21. Source? http://coinlab.com/status

Although I own some PM's as a hedge, one of the downsides of gold is that the potential gold available to be mined is not a piece of information that is easy to come by. Estimates of the amount of gold that can be economically mined are anywhere from "a little" to "a lot." It's also very unpredictable because technology advances and new mines can rapidly change the amount of gold available internationally. For someone looking to save wealth, the level of predictability of currency increases adds a level of stability because everyone is operating with the same information. Say what you want about fiat currency, but at least the rate of currency generation is somewhat predictable, and often announced in advance.
Heh... and there are entire asteroids made out of the stuff out there

Also, since the exchange in China seems to be leading the charge for the last few days, the Fed is either not involved or into some weird cloak and dagger shit.
