If you're right, stick to your bets and you'll be vindicated.

Be careful with that.  Sometimes, the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.

I'm under the impression he just sold, not that he actually went short.

Anyone who shorts Bitcoin has a screw loose.

I sold at $800 on the fist bubble.

Yeah, that's been obvious for a while mate.

The rest of this movement is manipulation by one or a few big players. Its right there for anyone to see in the Gox charts.

And?

And... this recent price increase to $950 is not representative of true growth in Bitcoin, it is being artificially pumped up.

Yes, but so what?  What's your point?   You seem to be annoyed that you didn't forsee that people would pump the price to $1000 (it's been on the cards since the start of the month), and now you just whinge every post when it goes higher.   Sorry buddy but it was your choice to sell, and you chose a bad time.  Such is life, learn from it.    Maybe you'll get a chance to buy back in later, maybe you won't, but next time, just hold

You can't really be that much of an idiot to see that this is not a positive thing for Bitcoin. We want the value to grow organically, not because some bankers who bought all the bitcoins with their printing press decide to manipulate the entire Bitcoin market.

yeah, there was a thread in meta 2 days ago, Thymos blinded all images through a 3rd site and it broke animations

[BitchicksHusband]

Easy money at this point?

I think this one is easier:

The Bitcoin price on MtGox will be $350 or higher 1st of December 2013

[solex]

So you're on btc forum betting on btc price, but the bet is in fiat?

Countdown update: less than 3 1/2 days to 1000.

$50 away

No.

4 days ago I told everyone that judging by the correction in March, that this correction would break out and hit $1000 by Friday night. And I've just been reminding people to get on the north train ever since.

We are going to FLY through $1000 like butter.  Wake me up at $1300-1400.  
(then again, I might just be getting overconfident)

Looking at this daily vol is 3x normal levels. Expecting a sell-off of old coins once $1,000 is consistently breached. Profit-taking mostly and some weak hands.

Might be choppy for a while, but that $800 level the medium-term floor.

[dwdoc]

All aboard the train! choo choo

Pretty accurate actually. If we make it to $1000, it's probably smooth from there.

If not:

With Bitcoin...I always keep it in mind that it could all change in the blink of an eye.. that's why I got these nifty devices to keep my eyelids forced open ...I kid I kid or do I?

Has anyone thought that if Bitcoin (or similar) becomes a world currency, there will be historians and anthropologists crawling all over the backups of these forums 200 years from now, understanding how the crypto revolution happened?

Weird to be in the middle of history.

Very cool thought-- I agree, we are in the midst of something spectacular (and historic). I can't help feeling both proud of and a little jealous of the guys sitting on thousands of coins (my mind almost implodes thinking about Loaded's 200k.

Also, when we attend the 10K/coin party (didn't they move it to 10K?), we need to wear name tags with pictures of our Avatars so I can recognize you guys. I gotta say I'm grateful to be here. Fucking p2p is the shizo.

This has been the way of bitcoin since the start.  It's hardly ever been organic growth.  It has huge swings followed by periods of stagnation, that's just the way it is.  The only question now is where it will settle again.  

I see a lot of posts from.... people, wanting it to drop back to $300 so they can feel all smart and buy everything they can.  Well sorry but you had your chance, and you missed it.   It'll probably drop back at some point, it always does, but I doubt it'll fall anywhere near there.  If you're lucky it'll drop to near where you sold so you can fix your mistake, but don't try and disguise your greed by getting all shitty at people pumping the price.  That's bitcoin, get used to it.

tl;dr, you fucked up, live with it.

I'm afraid I'll be at the 100K/coin party. But I promise to wear the carebear rainbow if that happens.

I don't see the point. I don't carry paper wallets on my person.

[TheKoziTwo]

When we left $1 the price went below again later.
When we left $10 the price went below again later.
When we left $100 the price went below again later.

I'd like to see $1000 be the trend reverser, where we leave all previous digits behind for good.

besides, any such gathering would be spectacularly well armed itself, personally I think a brace of model 94 carbines would be appropriate

In Germany? That's not legal dude.

Plus kidnapping and torture are always nice options to have.

I don't think most of us would be targets, and the people who would be targets know it and would have security teams. They'd certainly be able to afford it at 100K/coin
