I am quite dissapointed with the value and did myself say 2014 would be the year of the bitcoin, and while it hasnt so far I'm still optimistic. There's still over four months left of the year yet. Who knows what could happen in that time.
There was a high level of optimism at the end of 2013, and even I was under the spell for a while. Although I don't think there will be any miracles in the next 4 months
