I'm guessing another day, another batch of wires processed in.
No, not just another day. The rally since Jan has climbed the wall of worry and shaken out the weak hands. The Namecheap announcement came out. The Bitcoin Store has announced it is keeping all the bitcoins received from transactions. Bitcoins are rapidly being vacuumed up. Kim Dotcom has started publicly talking about using Bitcoin. The stage is set. The rocket is fueled. The countdown has started. Where is the black swan? ETA is about right on time.

Just because one asset outperforms another doesn't mean the sky is falling. Would you say a parent is collapsing just because his child is growing up? Gold certainly hasn't broken out of historical range trends against oil or food, and its function as a method of savings is not failing. That dubious honor remains the realm of fiat.

Bitcoin giveth, and Bitcoin taketh away.
Gold is seeming pretty safe about now. I don't see the block size as being a catastrophic limit, but it certainly helped add to the wild ride today.
The only way to go from here is more improvement.

...customers can point their BlackBerry or iPhone at a POS station...
What's a "BlackBerry" ?

Bitcoin is the first monetary system to credibly offer perfect information to all economic participants.
