Almost forgot. Two years ago today... Kinda quiet TBH. The day before the 'ATH'
I wish I had got into Bitcoin before that. I only got into it after the 'ATH' was over and it was in the news, then it took ages for me to find this forum and realize its significance. I experienced little rallies like the one to 660, and this latest one to 500, but the 'ATH' rally must have been awesome to experience.

It was quite something. I put it up on the main TV just to watch it though I think I missed the very top. Exciting to see 4 digits though.

It was a rather surreal experience. I kept a window open to watch the never ending all time high graphic popping up time and time again. Every time I woke up it had smashed a seemingly inconceivable price once again. I recommend it as long as you have all the coins you want.

Every time I woke up it had smashed a seemingly inconceivable price once again. I recommend it as long as you have all the coins you want. It must have been stressful deciding whether to sell, and when to. After the 'ATH' it crashed down to 600, then went back up to 1000 very fast. Those sort of violent price movements can either make you a fortune, or lose you a fortune. The crash and bounce from 500 after the latest rally was stressful enough.

Those gains were unrealised unless you sold. Yeah, it must have been great to watch the value soar, but how many actual holders sold? vs the scam pumpers that did the pump/dump?

Unrealised unless you sold *and* managed to cash out. Remember that Gox had frozen fiat withdrawals. If you were lucky or had decent spidey senses, you were using a different exchange but for many, even if they "won", they lost.

How much would that suck to be looking at 10x+ gains but not be able to sell your bitcoins? I can't imagine. Hope Karples rots in hell right next to Madoff.

The inability to withdraw was several months old by then. I don't really know what anyone was doing on Gox at that stage anyway as there was no shortage of exchanges that actually worked properly. Bitstamp was the 'real' price that people quote.

If you were lucky or had decent spidey senses, you were using a different exchange but for many, even if they "won", they lost. There was also an exchange that popped up after things looked awful for Gox where you could sell your right to Mt. Gox coins for real bitcoin, albeit at a significant discount. Some smart / paranoid people were able to salvage some of their losses...
