Bitcoin is too risky/volatile to be used as a safe store of value, unless you have the luck to purchase at the very start of each bubble and not plan to cash out in one year minimum, if ever.
No way anyone is gonna spend 1,000,000$ in bitcoins as a store of value for example, if at the next moment all the bears are going to dump their coins for the only purpose of repurchase cheaper, making the inversor lossing 15% of his inversion.
Plenty of people have $1M+ in Bitcoins. Storage or investment is up for debate. Speaking of 15% loses, gold is down 17% YTD. If you stored $1M in Bitcoin Jan 1st 2013, well done it's now worth $10M. Crash to $25? Still worth $2M. Your $1M in gold is now worth 830k. While clearly there is less risk in gold, there's risk in everything. It's certainly not crazy to think of Bitcoin as a way to store value. Like I said in my post, it will take time for it to become a great storage option. But I stand by my point that it certainly can become an amazing container for value.

Prediction:
We start pounding at $150's door over the coming week, then bust out quite a bit higher, topping $200 by June 15.

i think bitstamp is waiting on gox.. this will continue until the ask wall is eaten.. once we are past that .; i can see bitstamp in sync again with gox .. normaly i'm buying on bitstamp trough bitfinex but the support on bid side is to thin right now for me to attack that wall with a margin buy. so i'll just send in fiat to bitstamp and slowly buy some cheap coins. wish my next paycheck would arrive sooner

so much for weekend dips Yeah, i wonder how many times we had a higher price at the end of the weekend then on the beginning of it. I don't have the data but i think it did not happen much before. I could be wrong ofcourse. Anyway, intresting week ahead of us.

420 BTC bid wall at 133.3 got bought. Seeing as we are still at weekend volumes, I'd guess that is enough to stop the upward movement for the moment. It got me to lower my buy order anyway regarding bitstamp: yes, it is waiting on gox. It was very close in price before the upward swing, and in recent times, 4 or 5 points spread really isn't all that much. Looking how bitstamp has quite a wall in front of it (3000 BTC to 131), it takes a bit of incentive to really drive buys up.
