Now it appears to be crashing again.

Ay yi yi. I am beginning to think this is all just a grand conspiracy to screw with me.

i bought near the top of the june 2011 bubble. it went down so far and anyone thought it was dead, i started to think it was a scam and erased everything and forgot all about it. (i had my btc at a mtgox account that got hacked) and felt sooooo stupid that i burnt almost 3000 dollars. i had to wait more than 1.5 years to break even. now those 100 coins are worth 78 k (stamp).

to pay less than $30,- seems so cheap now, but was so expensive for 1.5 years.

same with $ 1000,-
relax, you did your best investment in life. short term you timing sucked, but long term it makes no big difference.

Totally true

I hesitated to invest in 2012 - it was at 9 dollars when I first heard of bitcoin. After the Cyprus bubble I was still thinking, I thought it was going to drop to a very low price, I didn't realized the power of bitcoin then. After a few month reading I finally went into it and started mining bitcoins. During the last november/december phase I had some spare dollars that I judged better to place into bitcoins. I bought at 990. No problem with that

It reached that price two times since, and will reach twice that price maybe a few times
