Earlier today, Bitcoin price was close $3000 and reached $3000 in some exchanges, and it's now dropping. This is not good. For how long is going to keep on doing this? But I know it's a good thing for those who are willing to buy their first BTC. Hopefully they just can't wait until it reaches the $1500 mark.

It's all fine when the price goes up with a few hundred bucks in a short time, but if the price goes down a few hundred bucks, it has become a problem suddenly? 10% drops are a frequent occurrence in current market circumstances, nothing to weird or special here. You can't expect all people to firmly hold their coins without cashing out a small portion of their coins at current levels. Bitcoin for most people is an investment tool after all...
yeah, the problem here is the $300 drop in one hour, atleast if it was in a weeks period, then I would understand, 1hour Shocked?

Exactly! That is the problem. I've been around for a while so you can trust me. I remember in early April 2011, when bitcoin was trading at ~$0.80 and in a matter of a few hours hit ~$0.60! I knew that was the beginning of the end for bitcoin, and its proved correct as we've sustained a long term bubble-pop down trend (you have to ignore the recent highs which are imaginary and will regress to the downtrend mean). I'm glad you can see things clearly as I do, and hope you've managed to escape the catastrophic bitcoin downward spiral. Good luck!
