Party over in the Wall thread! But seriously, I think people who will buy will buy. What we should do is discourage people from dumping/shorting/whatever. They're just gonna end up real sad.

We tried that in June of 2011. It didn't work out so well. The people dumping weren't the sad ones, they got to buy back in at $2.50. If people want to sell, let them! Some resistance would be healthy. Now that I've said that, I, personally, won't be selling any. +1

But yes, in reality some resistance is a good thing. I will be standing by my motto of "Never sell. Buy or spend" regardless of what happens.

I'm more of a "Only sell locally for cash, rebuy immediately on exchange, buy regularly with a small portion of each paycheck, spend when it is easier than fiat" kind of guy myself.

1/2 of all bitcoins are currently mined and in the system.
And I bet a large fraction of those are permanently lost, either from when BTC was new and worthless and miners didn't bother backing up their wallets, or forgot their passwords etc.

To add to this rally glory, S.Dice shares are booming. I wish I hadn't sold soo many shares a few days ago. It's reaching 0.006/share.

It seemed like a good idea at the time.

The large orders to come will be large sells because no one wants to buy into an ask wall that isn't there.

Have any of these guys been vetted? Is their architecture protected from what happened to GLBSE? Would I make more just speculating?

The way BitFunder deals with the problem by using a public asset list is preferable. my opinion: if you feel safer with a public asset list it means you don't fully trust the issuer, in which case you should not give him your money.

I am worried about the price rising too quickly. Don't want to see a repeat of 2011. Prefer slow, steady growth.
