Wow, that explains it... Incredible. (I dont mean I expect the price to crash hard, just that this explains the sudden panic.) |

USG wouldn't have defaulted anyway. It's something else.

What is something else? The reason for the rise, or the reason for the drop? |

What is something else? The reason for the rise, or the reason for the drop? Wherever a USG default which wouldn't have happened is being used as reasoning. |

But.. its.. responsible, in part, for the rise... and, this current drop.. no? lol ... No, because the USG doesn't suddenly default just because the debt ceiling isn't raised. Unless day-traders are totally unfamiliar with the USG, it wouldn't have caused movement one way or the other. |

Gox - Ok, thats part of the rise. ASIC - ? Chinese media - ? USG wouldn't have defaulted anyway. It's something else.

So you think the timing of this announcement and the drop in USD/BTC is completely coincidental? I think not.. |

Why does everyone panic sell or panic buy whenever the U.S. government does something? I thought the bitcoin rise was about china, investment trusts, and increasing bit coin adoption, and wealth issues all over the globe. I thought bitcoin was worldwide.

Gox - Ok, thats part of the rise.
ASIC - ?
Chinese media - ?
ASIC: Producers are in China and they have to maintain a balance of funds to pay Bills, they probably have a mixture of yuan/usd/bitcoin and they sold usd for the other two. Chinese media: Is genuinely concerned about the strength of the dollar and probably moved a lot of ASIC early adopters to hoard their coins this month, and brought more investors. |

The Chinese volume is virtually inflated by the Chinese exchanges' 0% foo on trades policy and massive bot activity therefore. You cannot compare Bitstamp or Gox volume to Chinese exchanges. |
