What we have now is that people know something is wrong, in their gut, they are a bit resentful of how much is being stolen directly from them, and they instinctively have the impulse to speculate because their store of "value" buys less and less every year.
i totally agree with this and it's my supposition that this entire rise off the $2 level has been driven by this market instinct and NOT pirate. i'm constantly amazed by how ppl around here panic based on such concocted theories and comments from a ponzi schemer and scammer.
