How much more initial stakeholder dumping... err... distribution do we have to go before the price starts going back up again?

It's all in the demand, my friend. If it's any consolation, a tight-knit community with little outside adoption is the best environment for managing & implementing those hardforks needed to implement all those innovations. Just compare the implementation record of Nxt's recent hardforks with the, uh, implementation path of Bitcoin's most recent softfork.

And then compare the smoothness of the entire process from hardfork proposal to new-and-improved codebase in Nxt with the, uh, spirited discussion of any proposed hardfork in Bitcoin's codebase.

The Bitcoin conservatives have solid ground to stand on, after all. Bitcoin is embedded into the "real" economy to the point where the implementation of any hardfork - no matter how necessary - would be a logistical nightmare. From this angle, Bitcoin is a victim of its own success.

So to answer your question, retooled as "When are we finally going to see enough outside demand pressure to overwhelm the stakeholder dumping... err... distribution to finally put NXT in a solid long-term bullish trend?", I suggest the proper answer is, "not until Nxt has a stable-enough codebase to welcome in folks who prefer wallet stability."
