I think that this is a slight exaggeration: maybe 10 fold first (for 48hr), then 3-4x for three days or so and back close to par on saturday (end of the POW period). Maybe it was 30X for a few hours, i did not get that.

However, as a result, we empowered garza and his paycoin nonsense AND bitcoin declined more then 50%. this is how the timeline looks like. i know that this does not prove a casual link, but it is at least possible. If you think that this was not in any way influenced by paycoin-I say-we don't know it yet. It certainly gave garza ammunition to tout paycoin and argue against bitcoin.
