seems like there was way more demand for higher priced coins. weird?
Not at all. Market makers play with traders beliefs all the time.

yes, less knowledgeable poeple might see apple's new payment system as bitcoins killer. how can a bunch of nerds compete against such a giant like apple? bitcoin is doomed, bla bla bla. I see apple's new payment system as pure hype. taking adv of the confusion bitcoin has caused, trying to pretend to be an alternative to bitcoin. exactly as canada's mint chip did.

This must be paypal response to the apple thing. It seems quite a commitment.

No, and there isn't going to be an Apple coin. NFC payments are not the issue and that's never been what bitcoin has been about. That's not the real competition; you can have NFC payment with bitcoin and it is still more efficient than credit cards because of the lower transaction fee.
But they have the potential to dramatically reduce online credit card fraud when combined with Touch ID and potentially the iWatch, and that is partly what bitcoin is about.
On a positive note, Google, eBay/Paypal etc might finally be forced to integrate bitcoin to compete with Apple.
Didn't expect it to happen this quickly

seems like there was way more demand for higher priced coins. weird?
If you know a TV you want will be on sale next week, you will wait to buy it. Btc has been getting cheaper and cheaper and cheaper for months, so why would the buyers not wait to buy? Everyone who has bought since April has seen their TV go on sale with minutes after buying. (It is almost as though fiat was deflationary compared to btc...) The big change is that there is no FOMO. No one is scared to sit in fiat. No one is afraid the price will rocket while they are sleeping. The last optimism was at 510, which coincided with huge numbers of bids. The question for the day: is there a price so low that everyone would jump at a chance to buy, even if the price might not be an absolute bottom? If so, what price is that? In other words: that TV is so cheap that I don't care if I lose $10 buying today, I am buying it now! I think it would be fitting if page 8888 coincides with the bottom. Post dumpers and coin dumpers might run out of ammo at the same time.

Apples payment system is another Facebook Credits, how did that end? It isn't. Imagine verifying online credit card transactions with Touch ID - that's the direction they're moving towards. Big reduction in credit card fraud -> reduction in processing fees.
