the government did it

either the management at gox is brain dead or the powers that are inflicting the never ending ddos attacs are supremely strong ie the Government.

i think it is more government manipulation.

who else has the capability to attack lie that?

Who knows. It doesn't take all that much money to buy up a lot of Bitcoins at very high prices, then dumping them at all once for very low prices to create massive volatility, which destroys public confidence.

We haven't had a significant amount of lag lately. Still the price is going down.

Anyone noticed the gold markets are also crashing - although nothing like bitcoin?

It would seem to me that a few big spenders decided to sell their bitcoins and buy some gold - that would probably be enough to cause yesterday's drop!

i think the attacks/price drops had the intenede affect which was to undermine confidence. now the negativity is feeding itself
