The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

I'm not sure what to think anymore. The * at the buy side on Bitcoinica isn't looking good. Too many longs again? Are they _that_ stupid? Another long squeeze incoming? *Sigh*

 We still haven't broken the strong uptrend that started this huge rally from the low of 2$, so that's definitely a good thing. It's been a very strong trend so far, and we have already bounced off of it multiple times (The red arrows). We were overdoing it, though, with the very steep trendline from ~4,20 up to over 7. It simply wasn't sustainable, and once it was broken (Blue arrow) we dropped like a stone, but we overshot due to the many forced liquidations. Where we're going next? I'm not sure. We still have room to go lower without breaking the longer trend, but then again, this was also a pretty massive correction, so we don't necessarily have to go lower. Interesting times ahead! |

I think there's a shark suppressing the price. And I also think we have a noble spirit (or trickster) putting up the two walls @ 5.4 and 5.2, otherwise we'd be dooooooowwwwnnn...

Some quick math.. According to rowit there are currently only ~30K hosts:  (and steadily going down!). Lets assume thats 30K bitcoin users. Also assuming all btc were available for purchase (which Im sure is not the case - yet), the market cap of the btc chain is currently ~$50M. That is $1600 on average for every user. My crystal ball says thats still way too much. The current price level would make more sense to me if there were 10x more users doing 10x more trade. That may or may not happen, and as long as there is hope, people will hoard coins, but currently $1 per BTC seems more reasonable to me than $10 and unless adoption begins to increase instead of decrease , even the hoarders will get out at some point. |

When all is said and done, this may well be remembered as the second Bitcoin bubble.

To me this is about taking a stand. The recent development was a credibility hit to Bitcoin but the price still went down "only" 20% which is less than it has in the past. To avoid a 50% drop which would be a massive credibility hit, people need to take a stand. You either support Bitcoin or you don't and now is the time to show that support or not if that is your decision.
I rarely make these kinds of posts but I honestly believe that this is a critical situation right now. We either make this recent development a bigger issue than it was, or we don't. It's our choice collectively.
And by showing support I don't necessarily mean buying now or going all-in at Bitcoinica, I mean choosing a position which you'll hold. No matter what.

+1 Which do you believe in harder, BTC or USD? Unfortunately, the daily dependency that we have on USD is a major factor in this. For poorer people such as myself, this is a very difficult stand to take -- possibly the most difficult I've ever faced. I literally have to scrape together every dollar I can muster just to keep food in the (mini) fridge, and sometimes this means I have to sell some BTC I have mined. And if you're wondering how I "afforded" mining hardware in the first place -- I really didn't. I spent all my Pell grant excess on it, which has severly crippled me and my loved ones in the short term. Taking a stand, indeed. |

We were in a 2-week mini bubble since the beginning of January.
We have corrected back down to $5.50, where we had been heading as the next "genuine" support price (1st week of January)
Curious to see how it shakes out.

Your basing the price of a bitcoin on fundamentals. That would be a nice thing in theory. But as we all know, its really based on speculation. |

I am fairly optimistic
I thought the big swing was going to buzz down to 5.55 and then break lower in a total rout
instead we weather 3 more large profit takings and settle near 5.70
It is true. the long term uptrend is yet to even be tested in this recent turn of events, we should test it some time in the next couple days

This is not some pseudoeconomic post-modern Libertarian cult, it's an un-led, crowd-sourced mega startup organized around mutual self-interest where problems, whether of the theoretical or purely practical variety, are treated as temporary and, ultimately, solvable.
Censorship of e-gold was easy. Censorship of Bitcoin will be… entertaining.
