I was kidding, it was a nod to proudhon.
I'm of the opinion that next bear market will be the most devastating and the longest one so far (worse than 2011) because everyone is caught up in the belief that if only they hold long enough, they cannot possibly lose out on BTC, no matter their entry price. Every dip is a buying opportunity etc.
Furthermore, the current bubble developed very quickly after only 7 months between former alltime high. So, it's a bubble on top of a bubble in the same year.
We can talk about that once we actually top out. So far, we haven't even doubled from the 266 high.
I'm of the opinion that the time elapsed between each bubble will be shorter and shorter, each will be more 'violent' and price will go up/down more drastically until we reach the 'climax' or real price discovery. Then after that more bubbles will come, but the price will increase less and less each time, and time will be longer. We are far away for the 'climax', i think at least two more bubbles are needed. Just my 2shatoshis The truth is that bubble 1 was more violent than bubble 2, (we went up x16, from 2 to 32), so I'd expect bubble 3 to be less violent than bubble 2 and 1. Regarding singularity, is a beautiful *theoric* concept, but its painfully clear to me that nor the protocol nor the infrastructure can scale to accomodate such a "singularity", and thus I consider it pretty much of a fairy tale. Anyhow, I will be obviously happy if it happens Really, I feel like we went from 5 to 266 in bubble #2. 5 was a long period of stability... in April 202 so that actually x50. The only real pullback between then and the top was the pirate disaster, and that is easily seen as artificial. That is, its a external event that could have been triggered anytime -- not really related to the trend.

And in my mind it has always been approximately $13 to 266, so yeah, I guess it is pretty subjective.

We will see very soon anyhow, it's clear for me that we are entering in mode "bubble #3", ATH is broken and we are currently growing exponentially, let's see how long it lasts and how far we go in this one.

Can we get the creator of bitcoinity to show an all time high metric for each of the markets? This would help a lot and clear up some confusion.

If you have a margin position, there are times you need to sell otherwise you will be liquidated.

Should be compensated by the "huge" inflow of fresh fiat, innit? It's still larger than Bitstamp.
