I keep on wondering whether all these buys are due to bottom-catchers fishing cheap coins or due to people scared by DHS news converting their fiat to coins and moving them out of Gox in a hurry...

Huge drop in the bid sum
This corresponds nicely with the 27,000 coins that were market sold. It will take some time for the bid sum to build again, unless people who sold decide that the storm is over. Personally, I have decided that until we know why the DHS is involved, it is safer to be fiat. The risk being buying back in higher and losing a couple percent (which I hope happens). On the other hand, it is a curious situation, and if DHS has decided that bitcoins have been used to fund terrorism, we could see a steep decline in the value of bitcoin as they work their "magic". So, maybe lose a few percent, or maybe lose 50%+ . . . I am probably the only person who is mostly fiat who wants to see the price go up  |

Well, I'm sure we have a little bit of both. |

Good insight. Probably bottom feeders. Or we would have seen a huge upswing. |

Hmmmmm. OkCupid, well that's bad. Looks like they served every US business that accepts BTC (through MtGox - which is most of them - Coinbase in the case of OKC) OKC posted the email from dwolla. |

You thought they would let Bitcoin thrive? This is why Bitcoin is king. They can't do anything when something is decentralized other than scaring a few people away from using it. |

From the information we have the only affected businesses are the ones that use Dwolla+MtGox. I think it would be much more important to know is how businesses using BitPay are affected. |

This is a STATEMENT from the US Government to Bitcoin. My advice being a US citizen and knowing the reach of the USG...Sell NOW or forever hold your piece. This is going to get worse as the news reaches mainstream media. By then, it will be too late. I'm taking my profit and I'll watch from the sidelines. I'll buy back when the dust settles. Good luck to all.

In what way would Gox fiat be affected? If the bad news is big bad news, probably the safest thing to do is keeping fiat on Gox. |

Thinking about this a bit more, I can see early adopters doing this ... people who are already comfortable moving coins around I think new money is less likely to do so and it will probably take longer for the news to filter through to them in any case Just my thoughts ... |

Agreed, many still don't realize the implications of this seizure, it is a start of a slandering campaign to stop 'financing' of bitcoin. The fight started sooner than expected. |
