Yeah I'm done with the whole SBSS thing. They did some nice edgy coins to start, then the quality went south ..then the subject material and originality went south and now the whole operation is up in the air. It's all sounding a bit dodgy to me. I'll do my self a favour and hold on to early...

Pass - I'm done with SBSS stuff. They've "jumped the shark".

Yeah ...most of the bigger banks will give you around that. At least it outpaces inflation and is reasonably at call in some styles of accounts. When things are weird, sometimes staying liquid is not such a bad thing. When things look a little better you can always buy in again. Only the brave...

Liquidation frenzy !! Sounds like folks had margin calls to meet or were in too deep on a 'deal gone bad' somewhere. I'm sure there'll be some kind of small uptick as the bargain hunters snap some on the dip.

Hehehe.. I bought some silver in the 30's ...oh well ...maybe in time it'll at least break me even again. It's there just in case really and is not an 'investment' as such for me - just an emergency brake for when zombie times come. Silver has traditional been a wild ride so I guess I'm not...

Is there merit in having a Bitcoin category? Just for giggles and farts? Seems people enjoy the topic, maybe the moderators would see this as worthwhile? Could call it "Crypto' or something ...just a thought. And good point, Mark. This is a silver category...I was wondering this myself.

a good point

This is a first take I think. There are still lots of issues with the 'Crypto Currency'. I've not the nerve for it personally but some seem to be ok with it. At the moment I think it's being played like a casino. A new toy for the speculators looking for 'the next big thing'. Pity because there...

I think the weakness in the 'currency' now is the exchanges. The infrastructure needs to be robust. If you can't get in and out quickly, you could be in trouble. Also as more of these exchanges come online, you have to wonder how many are trustworthy.

Seems some are blaming a DOS attack...hmmm

Actually seems like metals are taking a breather at the moment as well...down a tad this morning.

266 one minute - 142 the next.....135 after another five mins and 180 after another ten ....wild ride folks.

191.00 and climbing...totally insane rise. I'm still quite ambivalent about Bitcoin's place in the world. It's all a bit 'wild west'.

gone up 40 bucks in a day....something ain't right. Oh well, Max Keiser seems to have got in at the ground floor I guess he's ok and of course he's praising it to the heavens.

I was really disappointed with the 'Salve Queen' rounds...pretty rough.

As curios, they're fun and they had a couple of quirky designs but I have to say that from what I've seen, the SBSS guys need to work on their consistency both in strike quality and availability. 'Did they bite off more than they could chew?'...probably. Will I collect the whole...

Not to mention better value and easier to transact come 'zombie times' I'm not so sure the whole SBSS thing will keep seeing the aftermarket premiums we're seeing at the moment for the D&D coin. Strike quality is pretty hit and miss - Slave Queen was bloody ordinary in my opinion and the...

Have to agree there

I just received some Slaves Queen BU .....have to say, the finish on these doesn't seem as high a quality as on the others I have and doesn't do the design justice ( I felt a little let down when I saw them actually). Freedom Girl on the other hand came out quite nicely. I wonder if the peeps at...

Agreed.
