... now less than 55,000 blocks until the rate of issuance halving. Any demand on the sidelines waiting for lower prices have a time cost for delaying.

I find it interesting the falling sell pressure on the 12h. Clearly someone thinks we're bottoming out soon, and wants to go up. StochRSI has bottomed here as well.

How is that ? Mining difficulty has almost flat-lined now for a few months which indicates bitcoin price is very close to marginal 'average' cost of production. At halving cost of production effectively doubles (same difficulty for half the reward) ... you should be able to do the rest of the math from there. |

If bitcoins are selling for $275 and someone is able to generate them for $120 (by your calculations which must include all costs) how can you explain that the difficulty is not increasing then? It doesn't make sense ... if I can generate bitcoins for ~100% profit I'm going to keep adding rigs, that's simple economics. |

Wow, I just noticed the BTC-e dump. Wow, I'm really surprised that it didnt have a larger effect on the price (I have o idea how many Bitcoin were dumped). I really wish I could have gotten some BTC (or fraction of) for $150. Really, I'm optimistic. I hope we're not in for another week of boredom.
