    guy kills himself over bitcoin losses

    well not yet, but it is coming.

    to many people playing with a significant portion of their life savings here, people will get rich, but many will loose it all.

    I am not convinced it is over, or even that I will never invest in bitcoins, but i certainly wouldn't skip a mortgage payment to be able to invest more!

                      shit is all over the place, I get it, like I said, someday I may have money in BTC, but it would be money I didn't expect to get back. Not an investment, but a gamble, and I like to gamble now and then.

                              There were trades as low as $60 on BTC-E.

                              Longterm it looks a lot like an investment to me.

                                          It's looks like a graph of my success at the Black jack table, which I hardly call an investment. slow solid gains, then one day I hit it big, that night I went online and bought new golf clubs and started looking at new cars, next day I lost more than I had won the night before. this looks surprisingly similar, I bet there were guys out test driving exotics two days ago based on money they will never realize.

                                          Anyways, I have no issues with those who are into BTC, not trying to bust anyones balls, or call anyone a fool, it's everyone's choice, and like I said, I may gamble some of my money on them at some point, I would just personally consider it a gambling.

                                                  I watch the news, not the GFY news, the one where they interview people quitting their jobs to work on their BTC mining set ups in their basements, people who are selling real investments to put money into this. People who have very little but scrape together what they can to give it a shot and just end up with a huge electricity bill.

                                                  again, not hating on BTC, I just know it will end very bad for some, but then lots of things end badly.

                                                  tomorrow they could go to $300, next week maybe $1000 but that wouldn't change the way I feel about them, because regardless of any real world factors, they could go to $60, or $20 just as easily.

                                                      it's a cryptocurrency currently being hoarded as an speculative venture.


                                                      Speculation is the practice of engaging in risky financial transactions in an attempt to profit from short or medium term fluctuations in the market value of a tradable good such as a financial instrument, rather than attempting to profit from the underlying financial attributes embodied in the instrument such as capital gains, interest, or dividends. Many speculators pay little attention to the fundamental value of a security and instead focus purely on price movements. Speculation can in principle involve any tradable good or financial instrument.

People who have very little but scrape together what they can to give it a shot and just end up with a huge electricity bill.

                                                                      again, not hating on BTC, I just know it will end very bad for some, but then lots of things end badly.

                                                                      tomorrow they could go to $300, next week maybe $1000 but that wouldn't change the way I feel about them, because regardless of any real world factors, they could go to $60, or $20 just as easily.
                                                                      much of that is very much like dirty f's original thread here about it, something along the lines of *i've studied btc for the last several days and i am putting everything in it.*

I figure it's enough to make a few bucks if it does good but not enough for me to really give a shit if i lose. Here's to hoping that I wake up to $40 bitcoins at mt.gox.

That is kind of the definition of investing IMHO. I don't believe in long term investments because I think they are rarely profitable. I prefer to scalp, you get more consistent payouts and I think in the end you'll make a lot more too.

                                                                                                      Last time was too many users:

                                                                                                      Indeed the rather astonishing amount of new account opened in the last few days added to the existing one plus the number of trade made a huge impact on the overall system that started to lag. As expected in such situation people started to panic, started to sell Bitcoin in mass (Panic Sale) resulting in an increase of trade that ultimately froze the trade engine!"
