OP made no mention of the price, for good reason. The price has little to nothing to do with the Bitcoin economy, which has just about quadrupled in size in the past two months (vs the price going up x12). Bitcoin has a lot fof potential. Sure the price is going to fluxuate in the short-term from hedgefunds and investment bankers getting into it. But even if 90% of those who got into it in the past 3 months got out right now, the price would be tripple what it was three months ago and the economy would be doing swimingly in comparison.
