As predicted, the news is exaggerating the crash yesterday. The market is back to where it was in less than 24 hours, and thats how resilient bitcoin is . However they are not writing about any of this. Once bitcoin breaks this resilience I see a bullish trend.

It is normal you should get use to it and just relax and during panic time have some beer and lol @ panic makers.

It might be right - but there is such thing as a bad idea

I would rather the news be full of doom and gloom about bitcoin than anything. People who have not yet bought in may see negative news as "the time to buy." There have been way too many posts on this forum suggesting people have missed the train when it simply isn't the case.

Again: If people think it has "crashed" now, then they will think now is the time to buy if ever. Of course I come from a small household with not much disposable income for investing, but at this point we have 3 family members in BTC and have doubled our position, a month ago I was the only one with BTC.

bad, scary news sells - always has and always will. Remember Y2K? How many people spent thousands on canned food, bottled water, and toilet paper because of the stories in the media. The US media is particularly problematic when it comes to FUD. Americans love drama and pay for it with their hard earned dollars.
What kind of attention grabber would be the headline "Bitcoin bounces back after price dip!"

My comment on the news is that, just like the NYSE in 2008, bad news caused leveraged long positions to face margin calls. Unlike the NYSE in 2008, the news was false, and bitcoin recovered in a matter of hours.

Agreed. All these people reading about the "crash" will be fuel for the next bull run. Imagine half a year from now "oh sh*t it's at 2000 now? Better buy"

Agreed. All these people reading about the "crash" will be fuel for the next bull run. Imagine half a year from now "oh sh*t it's at 2000 now? Better buy" Only $2000? Nah. Remember, April 2013: $266, then November 2013: $1150. Let's go with $5000!!! Yeah!!! On a serious note, I wouldn't be surprised if this news will drive more speculators in and cause another run up in a few months.
