You need to look at the wider picture and the benefits in the data transfer brought by block chain technology. There are two levels in the way how you should look at the market. There is a trading market and all of us like ants pushing through, making some minor impact on the price, sell/buy, doubt, hold, pray, be patient and all the other things that we are telling each other here everyday. There are the whales that are huge impact makers and that are risking more, but gaining more as well. And there is some black/grey part of our community that is in this for transactions, monetary fluctuation, turn around and simply making the money move around. And that is the part that will assure our future. BTC will not die unless some safer, faster, more anonymous and more unrestricted way of moving the data is created. Until then, all is good, we're looking for a bright future.
