And 2014's Worst Currency Was...Bitcoin (Bloomberg) 12/23/14

[Lauda]

2012: 9 USD
2013: 97 USD
2014: 390 USD
Yeah, sure ... bitcoin is dead ...  i like the one-day view of the modern journalist 

It's not correct what you say. You exclude PUMP between November and Dicember of 2013, price was not 97 USD in 2013.

But, in all case, bitcoin total trend is in positive phase, we will see something of very good in 2015 I guess

Pumps are useless and should never be taken in consideration when looking at the big picture.
It's not like a single man can't pump the price to the moon.

I wish people here would simply dismiss media from the mainstream about Bitcoin or anything economic really. The mains channels are bought and paid for by corporate interests and therefore banks. CNBC literally acts as a voice piece for the FED so why would anyone care what they say?


Sometimes you get people on these shows that get it but normally they are derided. An intelligent discussion on Bitcoin would simply say its highly volatile in Dollar terms because of the relatively small scale Bitcoin is at and people moving in and out therefore produce massive swings in price. BUT the big picture is its only really gone up so far, the recent drop in context of the massive move up is insignificant. End conversation, go home.

Lol the tittle sound like a troll, but  true 2014 wasnt a good year for BTC

In my opinion, the author of this article is rights. The drop of btc price is significant compared to the price at the beginning of 2014 year. But the author does not take into account that bitcoin is a young currency, and at the moment the market is in the process of determining the fair price. At this stage, high volatilely is quite normal.

Well then it is time for Russia and China to take all of that down, and our problem is solved.
