ever since January, where we hit a low, the transactions per day have never been as high as they are now.

the number of unique addresses used is ~30% up from december 2013

miners are struggling making a profit with these prices (so difficulty is lagging behind)

why is the price lagging behind so much?

it has every reason to rise, and yet is doesn't.

thats false. they make good profits (the good ones).

Well obviously some are making profit, but the difficulty is stagnating, which means most miners have trouble keeping up, and are shutting down their miners. This is a sign the price is too low to support the current difficulty with the current mining technology.
