All people calling bitcoin a tulip craze don't realize that one of the main differences between both phenomenons is that the tulip craze was not supported by a worldwide digital platform called the internet. I mean the internet seems to be causing a qualitative effect on several phenomenons once they reach a quantitative peak thanks to the ease of interaction the internet provides. Look at the Arab spring, what seemed like a regular discontent or protest that wouldn't achieve much managed to topple whole governments. In my opinion this day and age we are witnessing very nice examples on how quantitative changes lead to qualitative ones thanks to the internet. So trying to predict what will happen to bitcoin using a phenomenon which happened centuries ago without having something like the internet to support it is not very accurate IMO.
Don't overcomplicate things. Tulips are useless. Tulips are not useless, they might not be a good currency but they can be a store of value, nobody has control over your Tulips but you They die and are pretty-much useless. |

Beware. This is a risky signal.
Dump @ 840. 845-850 will be the peak.
Bottom @ 795-805

Bitstamp down once again, when there will be an exchange that cares about their long-time brand? Maybe bitcoin is shown us now that it has power to stay here awhile, maybe that will courage entrepreneurs to really make an exchange that doesn't fuck things up, at least nearly ever.
Well, if you're a US player (like me), then set your sights on Coinsetter (which currently accepts coins only), and Kraken (which is hoping to have their CA money transmitter license by JAN, as per an email to their support this week)! I think we've see the days of arbitrage, and they are coming to and end, and hopefully we are about to see the end of bad exchanges. The market's getting better.  I'm not from US, but I have followed krakens development. |

Well that's kinda negative, don't you think? I mean they're not totally useless. They make a decent center piece from time to time don't you think? |

EDIT. I'm not trading these little dips and I don't think this will bring us more down, but it still isn't acceptable to go to your knees every time someone sells few coins...
Shameless plug for my 'Let Bitstamp know they're starting to suck as bad as mtgox' thread.Unsatisfied Bitstamp users, add your opinion, if you can spare a minute. |

Tulips are not useless, they might not be a good currency but they can be a store of value, nobody has control over your Tulips but you You might want to read up again on the Tulip mania. Tulips have more resembling with art then with gold and silver, and thus their price behavior. Tulips are infinite remember? |

Will do - thoroughly tired of the erratic exchange access - it's a 24 hour volatile market and have been for a long time, surely right now they ought to be able to cope. |
