After this rally (currently around 200$), when do you think we will have again an opportunity to buy "cheap" bitcoins?

Nice poll to see the overall sentiment around here (paired with the topic about when it will hit 300)

There is no such thing as a cheap bitcoin any more than there is a cheap federal Reserve note.

But they are cheap now. Try mining 1 BTC to see the costs and figure it out for yourself.

question of "cheap" aside, i think we will see sub-$150 within a week or two as this fizzles out... sub-$100 may be out of the question now, though.

mining is out of the question... if you factor in all the risks involved getting the mining equipment....

It costs more than 1 BTC to mine 1 BTC.

In order to profit from my last mining investment, I literally had to re-sell my miner JUST after I bought it and mined for a few days. If I had held onto it for even a couple more weeks, I likely would have lost. The fact that the system relies on other people buying your old equipment shows that it, in total, is unprofitable.

I hope it does. I'd LOVE to buy more at that price but I just don't see it happening.

I'm grumpy!!

I'm tempted to say never, but not confident enough just yet.

Should Mt.Gox go out of business then the price will plummet.

This, and with the amount of ASIC preorders, 200$ is still cheap

All we need is a catalyst. This rally has run up so fast on so little support. But it's exuberance all around! $1000 by tomorrow! 13,000 CNY by next week! Cheesy

By this logic, buying or renovating a rental property is a terrible idea. Wrong.

The point being made here is that the price needs to go up to keep this thing alive.  And it will.  I do like the comparison of  having rental property and being a miner.  Just when everything is going smooth all hell breaks loose.
