Markets have a way of fooling even the most saviest of investors and traders.  Prices on gox have declined 93% to double digits and btc-e even traded down over 90% to 102.  

IMO the bear market is can be considered complete in terms of price but maybe not in terms of time.  However, bear markets tend to move faster than bull markets so this bear only lasting 3 months would not be out of the question.  

I could be wrong but I have a feeling gox will reinstate (limited)withdrawals sometime over the next few weeks and those goxBTC will magically turn into regular BTC.

Thoughts?

The trading on mtgox has nothing to do with the trends of bitcoin or "capitulation". It is purely driven by mtgox's death and lawyers that have advised their clients to liquidate all btc into usd at any price.

Who is buying?  Are the buyers not being advised by their lawyers?

Apparently the buyers are brain washed and under the control of the illuminati.

The buyers are high risk players who have accepted taking a risk and are gambling with money they can afford to lose.

There's always this discussion of "who are the buyers" that I see every time anything is going down, even if it's worthless. For example when I played penny stock shell pump and dumps there's always someone asking "who is the buyer" every step of the way as it loses 99.99% of it's value. "oh someone must know something. why would ANYONE buy at all?". It's irrational thinking. Things don't just go straight down. There's always someone trading and trying to catch the knife. It's irrelevant. Who cares? The point is the trend is down.

Honestly, if I had GoxUSD right now I'd be buying GoxBTC with it. However, anyone paying USD for GoxUSD at an even rate right now (i.e. depositing) is a moron. Not because GoxBTC is a bad deal at 100 GoxUSD for every GoxBTC, but because 1 GoxBTC for $100 USD is not a good deal.

be bull comes natural for most of people, because people naturally have faith in the future ... investors, start-ups etc ...

since when have lawyers become good traders?

in fact, some of these lawyers may not be good lawyers thinking they might extract anything from a foreign company in Japan.

Why you expect, all buyers have lawyers?

This is nonsense...and what is the advance to keep Fiat money on Gox, instead of BTC?

I'm just gonna leave this here so you can make fun of me later:

I think it's weird that a lot of people were predicting that once we went under the 3 day ema (or whatever) we would drift into the $500s and, low and behold, here we are.

how sure are we that real btc at ~550 has anything to do with gox?
