Why are you here then?

Our family was terrorized by Homeland Security.  Read all about it here:  http://www.jmwagner.com/ and http://www.burtw.com/  Any donations to help us recover from the $300,000 in legal fees and forced donations to the Federal Asset Forfeiture slush fund are greatly appreciated!

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

my guess and I hope im right is that before janruary the price was like 10-20 dollars and it had bounced around this mark for years. im hoping it will slide steadily to this again or maybe just above 20-30 then slowly recover, maybe another bubble then. having prices this high so early on cant be good people will just mine, mine, mine. until theres none left. plus I don't have any btc and I want in but im scared to buy now because were in the aftermath of the bubble.

slow down bitcoin, nice and slowly.
You clearly need to first, learn about bitcoin before you post an uneducated opinion, and second, go buy some so you can at least feel like you're entitled to have an opinion!

The bubble is still bursting. The rebound to $166 was just a fool's rally. I think it's going to be a slow decline to the mid double digits before the bubble fully deflates.

So you're thinking around $50? Isn't that about the lowest is got after the crash?

It has value. It has huge value. The value that people attribute to it. The power it holds is it's value.

And it has huge power. No taxes, instant transfers all around the world. It cannot be traced by the police. You can buy all sorts of shit from drugs to computers with it.

And you're saying it has no value when it offers many things that normal currency cannot.

How can you DDoS an .onion site to which you do not have an IP for?

You would need to DDoS the entire TOR network with all of it's exit nodes to drop an .onion site.

Market cap. of the BTC is still quite low so pump 'n' dump bonker mentioned is still feasible for wealthy individuals and organizations. I guess it takes time to reach maturity to see that effect decreasing.

It is dropping for technical reasons, as in charting. It never deserved to be at $200 to begin with, which is why it went down to $50.  IT will find a price eventually but until then it will drift up and down. I personally feel it should be about $40 but we will see in time.
