A couple of days of excitement and then this happens.

To be fair, or just as unimpressed, they've been having problems with this when it was quiet too.
But it does make me wonder about how desperate it's going to become if there's another proper bubble. Last time it nearly finished off even the biggest operations and I've seen little mention of them making plans if it happens again.
There's no time to recruit and train enough people as it occurs and I doubt anyone would be willing to employ vast numbers on the off chance there's a few weeks of madness again.
A future bubble would be way more muscular and the millions of people who boned themselves up the posterior on the last one would be very fast to jump back in, let alone new arrivals.
Do you reckon the exchanges have secret fire power hidden away or are they going to wilt until the whole thing keels over?
With 2x the excitement it would be a massive undertaking to handle, 5-10x and your computer might vomit into your lap when you try to log in to an exchange.
