Actively trading.  Up or down, I don't mind where the market goes.  As long as liquidity doesn't disappear.

Accumulating (not on your list.)  Being a 'bag holder' as worked out well for me in other speculative adventures, though the damn things are heavy.

sig spam anywhere and self-moderated threads on the pol&soc board are for losers.

Interesting that there are very few voters shorting the market.  Is that because the only site that supports shorting is Bitcoinica?  I tried bitcoinica, but it didn't have the feel of a professional product, and I wouldn't trust it with more than a few dollars.  No automatic session time-out, terrible help system, etc., etc.

in the past months i held my coins for short durations, but if the price gets any lower (<1$) i'll buy some more coins to hold it for a longer time and hope for a rise, maybe just like before the big crash.

Im surprised as well.  I think that a lot of people feel that we are at (or close to) the bottom and dont want to take the gamble.  Frankly, im not that confident that $2.xx is the bottom, so im hedging my bets...

I was wiped out within 0.5 cents of the peak. XD

Awesome fun.

I'm a contrarian bear. I bet against Bitcoin and chant BURN BABY, BURN because it's fun, and allows me to remain objective and more importantly, still involved and up to date on Bitcoin, while keeping my stress levels down.

Life's really interesting, and being stressed out because some digital key pairs have lost value against an even more ridiculous form of "currency" makes my brain hurt.

I really like it here.

Thanks for being you, you.
