We went from $1200 to $1165, it's staying up nicely, so we must hope that we don't go below $1100 and I think we are reasonably ok and good to go for the next $1300 test.

Roger ver just tried to make profit by creating BU issue.But bitcoin has as usual recovered from such attacks and its price is now $1268.Newbies were the losers this time also.They just sold out their bitcoins by getting panic.Bitcoin's price is sure to increase more.

If you purely look at the price, then it may give you the impression that everything is just fine, but it's not like that at all.

At this point it doesn't mean anything yet, but yesterday BU managed to have 50% of the support for the first time (support = pools signalling BU through Core at the time they mine a block), which means that if they want, a fork could happen at 51%.

If Jihan Wu wants it could definitely happen very soon, but it all depends on how things go. If BU manages to stay over 51% for a fair number of days, a fork might be reality very soon with all destructive consequences as result. It's a damn shame that pools support BU.
