In my point of view:
price dropping with low volume = new people are joing community (best time to by is when is falling not start of rising)

Other people are testing BC clones luckly for BC there is many of them and they all will share that speculative BTC volume.
In long run so far to be honest i don't affraid so much competition:
WC - straight copy/paste - premine
YC -  straight copy/paste - premine
AC - straight copy/paste
Blue - straight copy/paste - premine
Cinny - solomine/instamine to not be called premine haha (FUD? check Cinny blocks  1-620 diff=0.002 same time eg. BC at block nr 10 had diff 0.7 and...)
anyway that was ONLY one coin who wanted promise more than BC. But many promisses give many coins not allways they will deliver them.
I like BC because it delivers promises^^.

Today many greedy people look want next BC train so in short price will go up or down.
We should focus on adding something to BC.
I can't program but i can donate/backup cool stuff adding to BC. ( i have donated about ~3k BC so far...)
Only new stuff and features brings value of BC up not market manipulations those are illusion of getting high.
Guys don't be fools and think twice about it don't complain on price so much.
