The current BTC hype is over. Google searches after bitcoin and related terms are declining slowly during the last weeks, since we had the BTC peak. See the Google Search chart here (the hype chart):

Google search trends after 'bitcoin', 'bitcoins' and 'mtgox'



So, let's wait for the next hype wave... but this could take some weeks, months, maybe years...

It might just take the next Cypress. But I don't think it will matter. We are still in the Black Swan phase here, the public is mostly in the black.

More VC's are directing money into it. It is just a matter of time right now.

BTC = Black Swan.
BTC = Antifragile - "Some things benefit from shocks; they thrive and grow when exposed to volatility, randomness, disorder, and stressors and love adventure, risk, and uncertainty. Robust is not the opposite of fragile.

bear or not.. BTC prices always rose and declined with the public interest, at least until now. For now, the interest is getting weaker...

Did you ever stop to think about if it was the other way around? Could it possibly be that interest follows price?

I bet it's both, like a self fullfilling prophecy.

The problem with that chart (with respect to your interpretation) is that it deals with search volume relative to itself.  The peak is simply the highest it has been, but it's not a value.  The only thing that chart tells us is that ~5x more people compared to today searched for those terms at its peak.  Do you think that all those people that searched back then suddenly forgot about Bitcoin because they haven't searched it again?  Search volume spiked because a LOT of press was released very close together.

So if both follow each other...aren't they both standing still?

LOL so fail
