Stop being a weak-minded short-term thinker. Either accumulate BTC because you believe in it for the long-haul, or don't.
(sorry - just getting a little sick of some of the infantile approach to markets around here...)

Bitcoin is the first monetary system to credibly offer perfect information to all economic participants.

An upside to people selling off a ton of coins is that there are also a ton of coins being bought. Spread them around boys. I say it bottoms out at around $7-8 unless people really start to freak.

Picked some up for 9.60, sold before for 12.50 so quite happy atm. If do expect a price to drop a little bit more but in the long term it will bounce back. Hopefully the market won't go into a panic. That is the only big risk atm.

BFL unloading BTC to pay pills?
They had to accumulate a ton of Bitcoin with the pre-orders for their new ASIC modules, and they must have to liquidate some of their Bitcoin holdings in order to pay their suppliers. It will be interesting to see how often this happens over the coming months.

Hopefully the market will go into a panic, the last thing we want is a nice stable $100 BTC that suddenly drops to $5 the day someone needs a large amount of fiat in a hurry.
There will be a lot of coins coming into circulation next week, this will scare off anyone with little confidence in the system. After that FBI report we should expect more of this kind of thing and it will likely backfire on anyone planning to attack bitcoin by destabilising the value.
This will rebound quickly and that's the kind of thing speculators love to see, imho they're hyenas but they fight each other to take a bite and that coupled with lending protects against fluctuations.
By the end of next week 1 BTC could well be worth less than $10 but it wont be kicked around so easily, Bitcoin needs solid foundations.
what is the FBI report

Everyone was happy two weeks ago when it hit $9.00 now everyone is freaked out its $9.00. Its been doing good with it going up and somone always has to screw it up i.e. Pirate or the people that hit bitcoinica before, or when the bubble blew last year. Last year people were all bitching when the difficulty was 1.4million and bitcoin was at $15 each saying it was time to shut down. Its all about perspective, and xanax.
A little irrellevant but it has something to do with it. Think of a person who goes on the game show who wants to be a millionaire and they are going for the million dollars. Well they have just hit the million dollar question and turned down the $500,000, but they have already locked in the $64,000(which no matter what they get). They blow the million dollar question and only walk out with the $64,000 and its the worst day of their life because they just lost $436,000. But on the other hand if someone just walked up to you and handed you 64,000 dollars it would be the best day of your life.

Alot of valid points here, yes let's not forget why were all doing this! lol and remember where we came from in the first major problems, I really think were doing well to hold this (fairly) together after a huge support may (or may not) be pulled from under us. Let's not speculate what pirate is doing, there are plenty of other threads about this!! Personaly I think it needs to level off a bit lower then it can be built on again.
