I have the feeling that the Mainland Chinese exchanges are winding down. Just a feeling, no concrete news.
Interesting. I've just seen on zerohedge that their shadow banking is folding, so maybe there are deep pockets in liquidation mode for reasons unrelated to BTC there.

I asked several times what could have convinced some traders to buy in spurts and take the price from 450$ to 630$. General answer was "who cares" momentum. ... If so, perhaps they now have been disappointed and are just selling back what they bought. But, who cares? momentum.

Do people use Bitpay/Coinbase for online gambling? Do people use them, instead of the exchanges, to turn bitcoins into dollars? (Just register with them as a merchant and but a Nothing from yourself in BTC, have it delivered as dollars?)
I don't really get your question. BitPay/Coinbase for online gambling? Do you know what they do? In exchange, you can buy or sell. In payment processing, you can only sell. If you have a lot of money, you can buy as well.

the most fucked up at the moment are miners, an investor or a trader can close his position to cut his loses anytime, but miner will be stuck with a non profitable hardware that cant sell, above all of that he has to pay for mining costs (power, internet, maintenance, rent....)
Not true, depends where you are in the cycle. My miners have paid themselves off and continue mining at a cost of $190/BTC. So how am I "most fucked"? Sometimes it helps if you know what you're talking about. You obviously don't!

Sorry, I don't gamble so I don't know how online gambling sites work. You mean that they only take bitcoins, is that correct?

But, but... So much can happen in 8 whole hours. Why, just yesterday Bitcoin was a thriving protocol with a rosy future. Today it's officially done, failed, kaput, on its way to oblivion.
