Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

Buy high, sell low. It’s going up? Buy! It’s going down? Sell!  |

Why do people keep selling low?? At least don't buy back high.

Panic sells? I mean, it pretty much plummeted... The question I always ask myself before selling a stock or, in this case, bitcoin, is, "have the fundamentals changed?" Nothing about the fundamentals of Bitcoin has changed, so there's no reason to sell. Just ride it out. |

Panic sells? I mean, it pretty much plummeted... It "plummeted" because all sell orders down to $8.7 were filled. It wasn't the hand of God, an omen or a supernatural anomaly. Nobody is forcing people to sell their coins at $8.7. |

No. People on IRC claim it's the CIA or 'Bernanke', and 'you're an idiot if you don't sell now'. After a while you just tune out & ignore them, lol |

Nothing about the fundamentals of Bitcoin has changed, so there's no reason to sell. Just ride it out. +1 to many people base their trades on the movement.. sometimes movement might warn you to pick up the ole googles and see if their is any news you need to be aware of, if not, it is best to just close the exchange pages for the day and go out for a walk by the river. panic sellers.. you are a long term bulls wet dream, dont ever change |

I dont understand why anyone would sell their BTCs right now. Anyone looking to make a profit and/or better the economy would actually buy right now. By the end of next week, or even if not next month, the price will return to a somewhat stable or ballpark $12-16. Hell it's already back to 11 right now. Sure it might plummet tomorrow even down to $5 in a flash, but BTCs are not in a dire emergency of failing. There have been much worse circumstances with fantastic comebacks with BTC over the past few months. Patience. Don't panic. Well then again, like Joulesbeef says - maybe dont change. You make it more lucrative for us. I would've thrown $400 USD into BTCs back a few hours ago when it was only $8, but sadly it takes a day to get money into Mtgox from Dwolla's bank account. I rely on Paypal for instantaneous payments.  |

Yes, Bitcoin itself is fine as ever, and all the errors were made by third parties and end-users, but these the Bitcoin algo/network can't exist by itself in a vacuum, and people need to be able to use it for it to succeed. These are real issues that need to be solved ASAP, and it is entirely possible that one to many of these horror stories could sour the idea on the public and drive them away for good. The standard counterpoint to this is that Bitcoin will continue to survive as long as 2 people use it to trade, but I'm sure we all agree that we want this to take off within our lifetimes. Nevertheless, I am convinced these are simply growing pains as we learn to adopt to a truly free system after being coddled all these years by government and the financial industry. It'll be hard work but there is enough real momentum behind this to succeed.  I'm just glad I got to buy cheap today~ |

Regardless, it'd be nice if we crack $20 again. If we can get to that level again, I'd be less shy in front of the camera  |

I don't quite get the logic: "have the fundamentals changed?"
No, compared to when it was at $2 or even less. So it should go back to $2? LOL
