Prices updated to reflect the rally from $6.50 to $8.50.

I said I'd only change them in extreme circumstances and this seems fairly extreme.

So is a rally to $11.50. Smiley

2 days isn't a rally, it's a bubble. Tongue

Reducing ticket prices further would be a huge risk and a massive bet against Bitcoin price collapsing.

I've already made that mistake with Solidcoi (price there is just frightening). I'm not going to make it again.

Since there is a big gap between Bitcoin exchange rate and the ticket prices, you could maybe purchase an option to sell the coins at the current BTC/USD exchange rate and reflect the price of the option to the ticket price and still reduce it. Do I make sense?

I don't know if anybody is offering such an option at the moment, it's certainly something I could offer.

Graet

Sujiram did a list of the 5 biggest holders over at the MC forums:

TOP5 gamblers:
Cluck - 135
Graet - 105
viperjbm - 26
Serp - 20
DiCE1904 - 17

I don't have time to check if his numbers are right, but I can confirm the order is.

Redesign the first post. Make it look completely different, and you will renew interest :-).

Bitcoin price not moving $5 in a day tends to help interest. Cool

Tickets back up to BTC0.3. Price drop leaves me no alternative.

We should use only one alt-coin, I think, dividing efforts in various cryptocurrencies is weaken all of them.

Yes, I know. But I don't know which currency is going to be the winner. Which one do you think is the best?

I think the (private) ASIC pose a great risk for BTC, while it seems that LTC is not vulnerable for that. Do you think that the butterflylabs ASIC devices could compete with private ASIC mining in time?

I don't think ASICs are a bad thing for Bitcoin, personally. The Jalapeno is an affordable device which every Bitcoiner should have sitting on his/her desk to improve network security.
