meanwhile, we have a nice pop in gold after Friday's job report. If the $1220 resistance gives way, there is a room for an attack at 2015 top at $1307.
That is the highest gold can go before summer.
Weakening of dollar should be also Bitcoin-positive, shouldn't it?

Theoretically, as the dollar weakens, more money should go into stocks, metals, bitcoin, etc. The problem here is that people are being urged to steer clear of BTC due to the massive number of scams and thefts. The more people steal from one another, the harder it is to get people involved, which is going to limit BTC's growth potential. These scammers are screwing everyone over -- even themselves.

Scams and thefts but also the 'don't fight the Fed' mentality; stocks have tripled since 09.

I think that bitcoin won't have the 'slow and gradual adoption' over time. When the time comes it will be swift and brutal.

yes, i've said before that i think volatility is our destiny; at least until the issuance curve flattens out more. but that's not a bad thing. lotsa money to be made if you time it right. and it's simply a reflection of the tremendous disagreement and early nature of Bitcoin as a concept. it's also why alot of us believe in the binary nature of Bitcoin with a likely outcome of UP.

it's only a matter of time before the dam breaks.
