Maybe it is time for a bitcoin 2.0 to arrive

Patience, Bitcoin 1.0 isn't here yet.

Sooo true.. lol

It does get kind of irritating all this talk of Bitcoin 2.0 when anyone that's been watching it a while is eager with anticipation for the great 1.0, the only good thing is its a bit like jurnos writing about "Bit Coin" with an air of professionalism Wink

On-topic, there's a lot of views on who's doing the dumping and they all hint at a blind spot in human nature, looking for a single answer when usually there's a multitude of them. If there was a single cause then here is probably the least likely place to find it, this place is full of agenda driven posters and anyone with the kind of funds move markets that much will also have plenty spare to pay astroturfers to muddy the waters.
Bitstamp's probably the most likely as its the most recent news but after seeing the silkroad "crash" that started before news was even released its obvious headlines are sometimes more an excuse than a reason. Who knows, maybe China banned Bitcoin yet again.

What's funny is all this talk about sidechains being the second coming of Jesus H Christ when we still haven't even got out of Bitcoin beta, how ridiculous? people will need to learn basic BTC before sidechaining biz.

Well, who knows... Maybe sidechains are going to be exactly what Bitcoin needs to come out of the Beta and unfold its real potential. You're saying it yourself: Bitcoin is still in its development. Now is the time to introduce those new potentially crucial features!
