Hey at least they have some value, relatively speaking.

I didn't lose out *too* much with these drops, and could still sell my existing coin for a pretty penny.

Now if they completely collapse in the near future, then fuck me, this would be almost worse then the car I bought 3 years ago and I should of sold.

On the other hand, im buying a shit ton at $1 all the way down to .00001

Im in it for the long run. I hoping bitcoin can evolve to more then just illegal gambling and black market operations. This would give it stability, rather then the rampant speculation it is now.

Low fee currency exchange is a good start.
Avoiding the inter-counter payment fees is another.

I think the biggest challenge for BTC acceptance will be "the man". Corporations need to be tax compliant, meaning keeping diligent records of who was paid what, so the IRS can get their cut. The best thing about BTC may also be it's undoing, anonymity will hinder it's acceptance in legitimate business transactions...

Hopefully I'm wrong
