Bitcoin has pass through many stage, limitations, attack and forks issue but its price keep on increasing from inception till now. At this time Last year bitcoin price was $450 but today it is $1245 that was over 180% increment in just a year. This is what we call blessing, that is making progress in the face of strong opposition!!
I can say blessing for those who are able to read the trades but we should also consider that when one person gain, another person loses. That is the way of trading. Unless there is a new comer that is eager to buy our Bitcoin in higher price, most holder lost when they panic sell during price crash. I can say,Bitcoin is a double edge sword. A blessing and a curse. Blessing to those who educate themselves and study its market and curse to those who are lazy learning stuff.
