I doubt it will be a problem. The retarget might be steep, but to be honest miners are an exceptionally irrational bunch. Moreso than catcoin.
Besides, it's winter in the northern hemisphere and Bitcoin would have to go a lot lower before the value of the heat generated by a miner loses it's edge over natural gas.
Personally I am not convinced there is a need to adjust the Bitcoin difficulty re-target %. This opens up a business opportunity for payment processors for those transactions that just can't wait.

But it is a huge pain to send bitcoins when you want to use them as soon as possible. If you need 3-6 confirmations you could get stuck for few hours.

This is so fucked up. Am I dreaming? I must be. This downtrend is quite honestly unbelievable. Must be early adopters finally freaking out and dumping?

https://xrptalk.org/topic/5092-some-news-from-china-about-the-bitcoin-price-drop/Firstly,some news maybe are not true,it only flows in the weibo or QQ.(what is weibo or QQ,u can see them as facebook or skype,or log on wikipedia) 1、Chinese famous finance investor Duan Hongbin(端宏斌) said that he has selt out all of his bitcoin by his official weibo and invest all money in chinese a stock and Hongkong stock. 2、Chinese famous finance investor don't issue that he has cleared out his all xrps,From his last xrp holding issue,he can't issue any important topics about his xrps. 3、Some bitcoin investor have submitted the report about Okcoin's illegal future operation to Chinese legal operation depatment.This news flowed from weibo and there are the pictures about the report files. 4、Many people and i suspect that OKCoin and Huobi sell the fake bitcoin in their exchange,their trading volume(about bitcoin future) and real trading data is not corresponding 5、Many Chinese big V(investor holding many coin or cash)have transfer their eyes onto the a stock or Hongkong stock,especially when the Shanghai-Hongkong Stock Connecting started.And recently Chinese a stock trading volume have surpass the American sum stock trading volume and first reach1000bil CNY.So many money has flowed into the Chinese A stock. 6、Some weibo said that some professional bitcoin investor teams are all short-selling and accumulate the single investors into the investing QQ group.It is like illegal money accumulation. At last: i also want to say WTF Chinese for those bad guys
Thanks! I just got the fuck out of OKCoin. They always seemed shady with all the volume faking and everything. It seems pretty tempting to trade right now considering the volatility, but i'm starting to smell a GOXX coming from one of these exchange companies. Also, WTF...

Some clarification: https://xrptalk.org/topic/5092-some-news-from-china-about-the-bitcoin-price-drop/?p=61839enrique11, on 13 Jan 2015 - 9:41 PM, said: That's the interesting part that I don't understand. What is going on with xrp in all this. From stephanlau's 2 point above it doesn't sound good: "2、Chinese famous finance investor don't issue that he has cleared out his all xrps,From his last xrp holding issue,he can't issue any important topics about his xrps." This is he weibo http://weibo.com/cha...eibo_s&nick=薛蛮子 He didn't say : clear xrp Will you take the ripple clap trap to a ripple forum please. We are concentrating on buying all the bitcoins here thanks.

Interesting how LTC isn't going with this at all recently. It's risen quite a good bit against BTC because its price has been a lot more stable while BTC has been free falling. Maybe LTC just can't be made more dead than it already is.
