BTER is coming, other exchanges, ventures and deals are coming. 3 days of slowness onduring a July weekend and this sort of flack, sheesh!
It's a little funny with all this impatience in crypto world. Say you invest in stock or savings bonds or whatever, you don't chat daily on basis on forums with the entrepreneur or bank or whatever

I cant really see how you can compare stocks and savings bonds to crypto's where the trading is 24/7 and 95% of people trade their crypto themselves.
Also I wonder what would happen if one of the major stock exchanges in the world shuts down for 5 days and no ones knows when it will re-open.
