But what do the green lines represent? Sorry, I'm a bit clueless at finance.
The Green Lines are representing the Highs and lows of the BTC value. It HAS NOT gone outside of those lines, and the lines remain a shallow angle.
And the jagged orange line?
That's the difficulty, which will most likely drop again. (going on 3 in a row)
And the lavender one?
That is the actual price per BTC at MtGox, not to be confused with the high and low
LoL.
Also, fuck Bitcoin, let it die, or help it along. Bitcoin needs to die to give a crypto-currency that isn't designed like total shit to arrive and gain a market.
Bitcoin was a great proof-of-concept. It served it's purpose, not let it pass and the next evolution to arrive.
It isn't that Bitcoin was designed poorly. The deflation theory was bad, but the other problems, that have to do with mining were unforeseen. Satoshi didn't think that GPU's would end up being used to mine BTC, and that is where these problems are coming from.
