I've gotten an e-mail from Jered saying he's going to return my money, so unless y'all see me bit**ing here again you can presume I've been payed out, so Jered is AOK !

I had some money left over on my TradeHill account when the latest series of disasters struck (first they announced they were stopping trade and returning everyone's money, then they announced on the blog that the site was down for a short while due to some server attack or something, then I read they lost ownership of the domain of the new site they said they were going to open - bitcoin.com or something like that). Anyway I've been trying to get that money out, but the site is still down, I've sent them messages but still have no response (it's been about a week from the first one I think), and no news lately it seems.
The blog has had no updates since 06.03., at the beginning of this month Jered from TH claimed the money would be refunded using e-mail and wire transfers very soon but hasn't mentioned this since 11.03., his last post was on 14.03. and his last activity on 19.03.
So if ANYONE reading this has ANY NEW INFORMATION please share, and if you read this Jered please say something, at least an estimate on when we can have our money back, if it's not gone into the wind, because I NEED THAT MONEY ! 

Has anyone here managed to get any money out of Tradehill lately ? Are they still in business at all or have they gone bankrupt ?
I still have money in Tradehill I want to get out, but now I see their site isn't working, and they haven't posted on this forum in two weeks (and they used to regularly), and it seems most people have already left this forum as well as the bitcoin world (which leads to exchanges shutting down due to lack of traffic volume).
I'm going to send them a message now, but don't expect a reply quickly, so please someone if you have any info on the status of Tradehill tell me now, is there a way for me to still get my money out ?

Yeah but I doubt we've reached midterm bottom yet... But who can tell really with things this crazy...
All I know is I could have made 50% on my investment in the last 3 days had I known exactly when these 2 big growths were going to occure (not even counting the several ultra-short spikes !) and instead I lost 12% !
I wish I had a bitcoin market chart from the year 2012. ! 

The price just spiked from 6.5 to 9.5 on TH and back down to 7.5 almost instantly ! And to think I sold at 8, damn it ! Someone could really have made a killing, buying at 6.5 and selling at 9.5 ! Only the spike was too fast for non-bots (humans) !

I vote for a nice warm and sandy tropical island. And the party should definitely include a drunken orgy, with at least 3 gorgeous chicks per one guy.

+1 on everything, just change weeks to days. Seriously, how many in 50 days ? Not even counting the numerous small frauds on this forum alone...
Boy, I wish I was a genius hacker, it seems it's a really profitable profession these days. Though I despise stealing from the poor, and that's what most hackers do since the rich are too well protected (try hacking into the account database of a multi-billion-dollar bank !).

So they aren't crooks, instead they got hacked. This is not really great news.
How many major robberies have there been in the bitcoin world in the last two months, I've lost count ?

Maybe I got that sentence the wrong way around... Anyway the guy who sold 30k of btc is not an idiot, he's either a genius or very lucky to have amassed so much (I wish I had 30k BTC !). Only he should have sold at 30$, not at 7$.

Oh I'm waaay past the denial, panic and desperation stage... I'm in the zen "watching the crazy world go by and laughing" stage right now...

That answer your question ?

Only if it rises to dozens of $ value for the 2nd time !

Yeah, I thought the same thing when I saw my post... She's gonna BLOW... 

Simple, find someone really desperate and loan 1000$ to them. Then a little later get 2000$ back from them. If they aren't inclined to pay up, incourage them by breaking their legs. If they don't have any money sell their furniture, their car, their daughter, or their organs. There's always some way to collect the debt. Just don't let the law find out.

From 14$ to 6$ (and still falling) in a week. If this were stocks or real money people would be throwing themselves out of the window right now.
I've lost some money in the fall (no money invested right now), a pretty sum that will be missed, but I must say I'm kind of having fun right now watching the graph go down and all the panic here... Morbid fascination you might call it, like people watching zombies in horror movies ripping people's guts out... 

Aha...
Why don't you also mention the reverse possibility of people throwing down a huge amount of bitcoins on the bid side to drive the prices up so they can sell at a high price ?
Actually why do all your post seem to be trying to rise the price of bitcoins ? And masking that as a "newbie helper" ! A bull in sheep's clothing !

P.S.
All you people thanking Flip for the advice bear (no pun intended) in mind he has his personal interests in manipulating other people's opinion, just like 99% other people here. Belief makes prices, not reason, and who controls belief controls prices.

Just watch it go right back down... Your wishfull (and greedy) thinking can't help the fact this will probably settle around 10$ for the next few days (until it goes lower probably). I could be wrong though, but we'll see.
I mean, your milking the cow is really becoming boring. You and Edward50 post one identical post after another, he just tries to convince everyone btc will fall and you try to convince everyone btc will rise...

Man what a moaner you are, must be PMS...   

Not everyone is a miner, and everyone including miners will sell if they think they're not going to be able to get anything for them later.
And you are obviously a self-promoting miner who is trying to manipulate public opinion to suit his own interests, just like many others in this thread are trying to manipulate public opinion to suit their own interests (especially that Edward50 or whatever guy whos EVERY post is about bitcoins falling !)...
And if you want to help miners, you can just quit the business ! The less miners there are, the lower the difficulty and the more they earn. So if you're such a self-sacrificing miner-crusader, go jump off a cliff for the good of other miners !   


Electricity costs now don't matter if you believe bitcoins will be a lot more valuable in the future.


Selling BTC for dollars or buying goods with them is the same thing when it comes to the effect on the bitcoin price, because all traders immediately sell the BTC they get. So you'll crash the price in one way instead of another.

Nope, I'm thinking it will hover around 10$ for a few days. Even then the longterm bottom may not yet be reached. It may drop to 5$ before starting another longterm rise.
