I wonder if the luck has to do with the price drop or if the price drop has to do with how bad the luck was. Also I wonder if the miners will drop in price now.

Price drop of BTC is because of 2 reasons.

1. Russia deemed BTC illegal

2. MtGox went down.

Both are bad...
Stop looking at your HashRate, and Pool Luck...
Start watching the news...!
Heat is on....

I saw online about it dropping just before I made the post.  The article that I read said MtGox went down and something about servers over seas.  I'm thinking that had more to do with the MtGox going down.  Thought maybe because of that going down and price dropping might be in part as to why the issues were on Slush.  I didn't know that about Russia.  I didn't even Know prices went down till I saw that article and nothing about Russia was said.  Glad to see things are getting back to normal on Slush.  Also all the news in the St. Louis area is saying about Bitcoin is Apple took an app off the market and some places in the area are now taking them.
