We went from $140 to $1163 in a two month period late in 2013.
It's only early 2014 and we are retesting some of these numbers.
Strange things are always going on with Bitcoin. It's a disruptive technology.
People are trying to put a square peg (bitcoin) into a round hole (traditional methods for handling money), and they are getting burned in the process.
I see what you mean, i just dont know if the rumors are being spread on purpose or actually happening. Most of the market is controlled on speculation, besides the hash power and well, false rumors have always had a way of driving the market. I just dont seem to figure out when they expect the bitcion to shoot up again.
But i will be ready.
