I was going tell a friend of mine to start buying last month but chickened out just in case - Then I nearly did again today - Glad I did't this time....

looks like a drop to me

yep, def a crash, lets see how this one pans outs.

where is franck LOL, I sold all of mine but 1 today right after I made the post about holding them. I spoke to two people and heard enough. One said wait till 400 and he sold his so screw it. They will crash sooner or later. It is not like they can go up forever. I still think they will go higher but no need to risk it

I'm so happy - I sold a lot this morning, before the crash :thumbsup

77 wow dropping fast

Bitcoins were indeed severely overbought for a while, indicative of a lot of hot money coming into the latest ?cool thing?, forming a temporary speculative bubble.

looks like all the big guys are jumping off the bandwagon now

alot of people made alot of quick money

I personally prefer this tracker http://bitcoinity.org/markets?curren...exchange=mtgox

But yeah, currently down to $77 from $95

Would one thing cause this to happen?

R.I.P Bitcoin? lol

MTGox is down. uh oh

maybe its time to buy? ;)

last time i saw was at $44 lol

it's crazy! i thought i heard the rumours of the weekend selloff but dang!

yeh now is def the time to buy, would sure helpt he market in doing so. looks like we have a recovery and people are rallying now! lets hope it continues

Wish i sold 2,000 BTC's at $95 and then rebought at $77. wish i could predict the future sometimes.

The bitcoin price used to be easily swayed by people with a lot of bitcoins back in the day. Someone could sell off 10,000 coins at $1 under market and cause a panic sell-off, then buy them all back at a lower price, which also creates support shooting the price back up. I don't know if that's still possible now but it could be.

lol - It just went crazy - I'm going to be staring at this all night now....

yeah, i found the thread elsewhere that nailed the selloff yesterday, but guessed it would start tomorrow


that was posted yesterday morning at a large bitcoin board

Throw your money away.

haha bitcoin back up to $90! even though it crashed its a good sign that this is a strong currency.

looks like we got some weak people out of the market haha

we could be seeing the bull trap

So if we hit despair within the next few days will you sell me x amout of bitcoins at mtgox rate by PayPal

My bitcoins stay as bitcoins.

haha nah, no point at sellin when its that low, i would have nothing to loose by holding onto them and taking the chance of it growing again.

Looks like there was a ddos and 1 or 2 people manipulating things at the same time. They created a small crash.
Everything will be fine after the weekend again.
Too bad i was afk. Could've made some quick money.

Great time to buy though.

was it an organized ddos? seemed like it couldnt handle the load of everyone going to the site to sell and buy at the same time. i know the mtgox api was like 7 minutes behind the market.

next time i see some indicators that its dropping im selling high and buying low. get a few free btc's along the way.

Dwolla had a DDOS today, which is a big source of funds into gox. I dont like that company.

I too hate Dwolla. I used them for transferring money in and out of mtgox quite a lot. Then they started getting stricter and requiring shit ton of Identification and blood samples and shit.

fuck dumb ass' 90% bitcoins are harvested by hackers using botnets..... buying and selling is encouraging hackers to keep buying adult traffic and sending to exploits..... bitcoin will be the down fall of us all wow no even knows any thing about bitcoins i bet on this whole forum....

90% of what you just said was wrong...

mike do some research over 100 million bots around the world are harvesting bitcoins..... smdh

lololol.

maybe bitcoin can save the porn industry. start accepting bitcoins. anon payments encourages the average family man to get away with subscribing to porn without the wife knowing.

They totally put TradeHill out of business back in the day. That was a great exchange. They advertised zero charge back risk to their merchants. One day they gave tradehill like 30k or more of chargebacks. They tried to change their terms of service and website after the fact but the internet never forgets.

Lawsuit now in court. Tradehill just opened up again though.

Well let's see... The average botnet is comprised of mostly old shitty unsecured computers. 95% of the GPUs that are infected in the botnet are not capable of any kind of decent output. With the constant strain on the CPU even computer illiterate people will notice and be on the phone with tech support so they can get back to status updates on twitter and facebook and there goes the majority of your hard earned botnet.

There is only one person I see bitcoin mining with a botnet of 10,000+ computers. He claims the output is 20GH/s on the botnet. That's pocket change compared to what the majority of professional miners are outputting. Even the new ASIC miners will push 60GH/s. Serious miners will have multiple rigs. 10 ASIC miners would net 1 person 600GH/s.

So all in all, if you did any research you'd know that botnetters have reported trying it and found it to be not profitable.

just got this on the pricing structure for batch 3 avalons, wow!

http://store.avalon-asics.com/?product=avalon-asic-unit

Pricing is based on BTC, and not USD. So depending on configuration, it is 72BTC to 115BTC (which is >usd 4200K for lowest config, at current BTC price).

Have you seen the Ebay prices?

i can only imagne, $25k?? i didn't realize all the configs on that rig i linked are already sold out!

there's some others that are still in the $1299 for 60 GH/s range for preorder from a couple other vendors that i just double-checked.

it is at 88

indeed it is.
