From a value-oriented investing perspective (best represented by Warren Buffett), the value of one bitcoin is zero. Who is being more rational here, the bull or the bear?

now that is just ignorance at an appalling level. w.b. would smack you down.

I said that bitcoin is a mirage, and yet you keep falling for it. A fool and his money...

It's not only Bitcoin having problems this Christmas, so are banks and credit cards. Morgan Stanley said an employee stole sensitive data on 350,000 clients; Chick-fil-A confirmed an investigation into a credit card breach.

Morgan Stanley fired an employee who stole the account names, numbers and transaction data on 350,000 clients; the insider crooks plan was allegedly to sell customers data.

The breach was discovered and reported to authorities on Dec. 27, after Morgan Stanley discovered sensitive data for over 900 clients on the Internet.

Chick-fil-A -- which operates restaurants in 1,850 locations over 41 states and D.C. -- has confirmed an investigation into a credit card breach. In a public statement, Chick-fil-A said it discovered "unusual activity" on December 19th after being notified of limited suspicious payment card activity appearing to originate from payment cards used at a few of our restaurants.

Has Morgan Stanley been closed for two days after this breach? =))))))

No, they are carrying on regardless. Probably by using a fractional reserve con to trick us in to believing they hold 100% of deposits. We should demand they prove they hold all customers funds and are not gambling them on dodgy investments like credit default swaps and derivatives.
