Not to mention, on the very same night, my desktop gonked out on me (video card failure) and then my Internet went down!

It's a conspurrhurrdurr!!

Well, maybe that was unrelated, after all.  But it is kinda funny.  I know one couldn't make accusations without hard evidence, but the suspicion doesn't go away just like that.

It would seem to me that its just too many people chasing bitcoins from anywhere, where the market isn't ready for that sort of load.

We will learn and move on!

Now that you mention it, I couldn't find my keys the night of the crash/attack for like 30 minutes.  It's all connected!

Bitcoin Fact: the price of bitcoin will not be greater than $70k for more than 25 consecutive days at any point in the rest of recorded human history.

I got that feeling too. It was probably a set up.

Nice try, but Bitcoin rises again!

The recent dumbass panic selling crash happened shortly after I switched my client to mBTC display. (It's back to BTC now.) I jinx everything, I can assure you. Grin

I think it will take a few weeks for the market to recover.Someone obviously were attacking all the exchanges to somehow limit the viability of BTC.

And shortly after i finally downloaded a mobile ticker app so i know when its time to sell my first coins. (will sell a really small percentage at 250-300euro)

I guess it was both triggered by Bitcoin beeing worth too much too early Wink
