just an FYI .. we crossed back over a billion .. which is good news I believe..  a big fu to Jim Cramer.

I didn't like his report today...  just bugged me about it,  considering he got paid last year for a TV show regarding bitcoins (the good wife)...   so he can profit (indirectly from them) yet sort of slams them in the process...

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

why is this good news? Wouldn't it be better if bitcoin dropped to $10USD and stayed there, and the stability caused more merchants to actually accept it for payment.

Right now, the market is saying that $10 is not a fair price for a bitcoin.

This may change any minute.

Buy a TREZOR! Premier BTC hardware wallet. If you're reading this, you should probably buy one if you don't already have one. You'll thank me later.

Exactly, and until the market becomes rational, it is a terrible thing regardless of what the total market value of bitcoin is in United States Dollars

We knew it would happen. This proves that Bitcoin isn't dead or a fluke or undervalued. Still it doesn't change the fact that Bitcoin if it's going to continue to grow at the rate it wants to grow, it needs better infrastructure.

This goes for the exchanges as well.

Apparently $10 isn't rational but neither was $266.  I think $100-150 is rational. I think when it increased 100% in 48 hours that wasn't rational.

Only fools take Cramer's opinions seriously. I see him dissing Bitcoins as a good sign. People who are interested and willing to research will now have reason to take a look at BTCs.

Ask not what Bitcoin can do for you - ask what you can do for Bitcoin.
