I can't take these price swings any longer so I'm going long on bitcoin and withdrawing all of my coins back to my wallets. Trading bitcoin is a young man's game.

The true value of the bitcoin has nothing to do with it's frequent mood swings, nor the people who profit from them. It's time to hoard those coins, and spend them on stuff you want to buy!

Agreed. I've traded gold and silver the last 5 years and I would have been much better off buying at the beginning and holding instead of dipping in out and trying to time the market. Its very stressful and not worth it.

I'll be watching with you from the cheap seats. My bitcoin experiment has been an unqualified success so far, so going long is an easy decision.

And you get the added benefit of getting your life back. My ability to work, sleep, eat, live has been severely impacted by BTC. Think I'll go long too.

I'll keep my politics out of your economics if you keep your economics out of my politics.

I had resolved to go long, but I'm having trouble sticking to it. It's not that I doubt Bitcoin's long-term prospects, it's just that I want more coins.

Ultimately Bitcoin is NOT about day trading. It is a long term investment spending.

It's bad enough being a merchant who accepts bitcoins for payment, then has to buy hardware in GBP! There's an implicit speculation aspect there that's out of our control, and we're trying to find that right middle ground between reasonable BTC pricing and proper "risk insurance" in case it does another "tank" like today...
