- davidw 13y agoFailing to predict the future is one of those human foibles that we all suffer from every now and then.
- scotth 13y agoWhat price should you have sold at?
- rjd 13y agoI look at it and think its a con. Coincidentally after a several massive thefts, the price suddenly raises? sounds like deliberate manipulation to dump stolen coins to me. Wouldn't mind betting some syndicate took a huge upfront loss to drive up price, and are now recapitalising that loss with said stolen coins.
- sliverstorm 13y agoCan be explained as "no news is bad news", e.g. high profile thefts got BTC a spike in publicity. Up until this month, nobody but geeks knew what BTC was. Now I'm hearing philosophy & art majors talking about it.
- vezzy-fnord 13y agoNot really. Bitcoin got its first mass mainstream exposure around February of this year when it broke its peak from mid-2011, IIRC. Definitely before this month, however.
- sliverstorm 13y agoThat's true, but if memory serves that was a metaphorical 10th-page oped. The coverage we're seeing now, starting around the thefts, is 1st or 2nd page.
- 3pt14159 13y agoWhy did you sell all of it? I sold as it went up as well, but I always held back 20% of my original purchase just in case this very thing happened...
