With goverments/ banks starting to manipulate/control it and resent price crashes and nto picking back up.. is bitcoin showing signs of failure?
You haven't seen a crash yet. I've seen Bitcoin crash from 30 to 0.01, it hasn't died yet.
Damn!
wasnt that when gox was hacked and a fake order was put in to eat up all available orders to force the price down to that? which only affected that one exchange, so not really its true value at the time in any sense.
