    Hmm. Seems like it is hovering just above 300. Wondering what will happen once that level is breached.

    Just seems to be on a downward trend though I must say.

    Will go down to zero - its intrinsic value, given its not even legal tender and thousands of more crypto currency can be created with no barrier to entry

    Saw it at .12. Spent about 2-3 minutes looking at it and then forgot about it. Didn't make sense to me that people would value a currency created and controlled by one person. $20 back then would have been about 160 bitcoins. :eek:

    From what I can tell it looks like a bit of manipulation from china. I guess someone wants to buy big but is looking for a better price.

    Nah, to much money tied up in it, the amount of mining costs spent to get them gives it a value,
    It usually has a bubble every two years after a low time like this, Wall st is buying it up too, no other crypto in sight has this sort of infrastructure.

    I got out a while ago. Volatility was driving me nuts and it didn't suit me any more as a buy and hold investment.

    If we see prices under $100 I will jump in again. The BitCoin ecosystem is certainly growing, but the volatility has taken any lustre off the currency as a store of wealth. Wouldn't be surprised to see rebounds over $300 again in the short term.

    Wow! It has been sometime since I looked at the Bitcoin status. I wonder whether it could drop below $200 by end 2015.

    Probably will. I found a use for Bitcoin but definitely not as an investment. The only way I believe for it to gain mass adoption is if the price starts stabilizing.

    Because of an encouragement from a friend, I opened an ewallet just a month ago. I will consider buying a few bitcoins if it falls below $200. I think Bitcoin is here to stay for many more years and I think it will be useful for me in future. I missed the boat when it was $0.20. I recalled thinking of just buying 1,000 bitcoins at that time.
