swiss central bank depegs the franc from the euro ..
the Dow Jones sinks over 2%, while silver went up 7% and gold went up 4.5%:"
bitcoin being in it's own world is.....down.
it seem like something wrong in bitcoin world .


remember, even if currently about 800k $ get invested into Bitcoin, it will only cover the inflation. You have to add every merchant instantly selling + regular sellers.

That's a hell of selling pressure every day. That's the main reason we will most likely stay in this bear market until something drastic happens. Like a Fiat Currency Crashing  (€, $ or  ¥).
If nothing magical happens, the next halving of the mining reward would at least take out some pressure so the currency could grow in value.




yup i do remember the inflation of 3600 bitcoins everyday. i agree with your assessment. i think the swiss didn't unpeg from euro and hurt their own economy just for the heck of it. somethings going on.
 

There was an influx of money into their country ..its pretty much made them de-peg. I'm basing this off one article I read though



that is the original reason why they pegged to the euro due to influx of money cause the franc to rise to high causing exports costs to be to high.

the reason why they depegged is because the eu central bank is about to print more QE and that would have forced swiss central bank to print too.
