I think now that everyone who has sold their coins in anticipation of a great big crash has realized that said crash isn't going to happen, and are now looking to buy back in at a low price (probably because they sold even lower).

Or people are just planting buy walls to keep the price from falling.  Nobody is really trading. 

Another explanation is that people are parking all their money expecting a crash and not really looking at the data.

Wow.  Almost $750,000 in bids visible vs a little over $500,000 in asks visible.

Bitcoin Fact: the price of bitcoin will not be greater than $70k for more than 25 consecutive days at any point in the rest of recorded human history.

In the true spirit of speculation......demand is there, but the miners haven't been offloading too much since Gox reopened.....wonder what I'll wake to Smiley

I really hope we'll hit $30 again, it would make my mood so much better. And then, it should stay at $30 stable for a while too. Or at least, make it fluctuate in some direction. With the difficulty becoming so high, mining is becoming completely useless for single-card users.

There'll be one last hurrah still if the Radeon 7xxx lands next month (if...), but after that, the difficulty will make mining unprofitable compared to the price in electricity.

That's not really going to happen considering they only entered production this month.
Hell, the 6990 just came out a few months ago.

That's what I meant by "if". It depends on too many factors anyway:
- the new shader arc needs to perform as good as the old WLIV in bruteforcing applications (so we can get the projected 2x performance based on the shader numeber)
- drivers don't cause issues, existing apps work on the new cards from the getgo
- prices aren't outrageous
- IF performance is indeed a 2x jump, they have to come out before the increase in difficulty invalidates their power from the getgo (so it is economical to invest in the cards - a change from, say, 0.02 to 0.04 btc per card per day won't make it worth the upgrade on current mining rigs, unless btc value jumps to $300 by the time the cards come out).


Also, the previous run to $30 was caused by some wacko buying over 3000 btc in the right moment, jacking the prices up by $4 and causing speculators to buy en masse lest they miss the gravy train. To cause a jump of $4 right now, one would need to buy waaaaaaay over 15k btc. So unless all sellers back out momentarily, I don't see how a run to $30 will happen soon.

But, mtgox only just reopened, so I have a feeling that a real rush has yet to happened. Fun things may happen by thurdsday/friday, once wire transfers go through to dwolla. Maybe.

Lots of people with free trades = high liquidity = stability and sanity in pricing

As we slide down the banister of life, this is just another splinter in our ass.
