I'm waiting for the next world financial crisis first before I even think of selling my coins.

When people run from fiat it will be epic. Most people do not see life concerning money as a monopoly game. Literally it is paper and in most cases just electronic entries created with no effort. I've seen family, friends, and acquaintances go ape shit over fiat paper and fiat digits in the recent past. It blows my mind how attached people are to their monopoly money.

A list of events that mark bitcoin's success through failure of bitcoin businesses/scams:

First it was MyBitcoin

Then it was Bitcoinica

Then it was PirateAt40

Then it was Silk Road

Then it was MT GOX

Then it was Butterfly Labs

...when people are willing to scam, cheat, and steal bitcoin...that is a bullish indicator for Bitcoin.

greece, italy, portugal, spain at the corner too.

im from the eurozone, and i found this sham pretty amazing. beats the dolla imo.

Don't forget Ecuador in that region.  They are outlawing Bitcoin altogether and releasing a state sponsored cryptocurrency.  Their state currency today is at about 55% inflation per annum.
>50% per month is consider hyperinflation, so the clock is running for them.  With their weakening currency, and the strengthening dollar, they are on the path of currency failure, so this will be interesting.

Either way if their state crypto works or fails it will be bullish for bitcoin.  Bitcoin will be in Ecuador, it just won't be legal, which will allow the state to seize any they find as contraband.  (much easier said than done)

Nice bid walls

For some perspective on how small bitcoin currently is

"The world’s 400 richest people lost $70.2 billion from their collective net worth this week amid a global selloff that sent the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index to its biggest weekly drop in two years."

"John Paulson, founder of New York-based Paulson & Co., dropped $1.5 billion after his funds declined as much as 11 percent last month. "

"Global equities have lost $3.5 trillion in value since reaching a record last month."

"Elon Musk lost $755 million after his Tesla Motors Inc. fell the most in three weeks yesterday after unveiling an all-wheel drive Model S and driver-assisting tools"

"Bill Gates remains the world’s richest person with a net worth of $81.8 billion. The 58-year-old Microsoft Corp. co-founder dropped $2.8 billion this week as the Redmond, Washington-based software maker tumbled 4.5 percent."

A real hype hasn't even occurred yet 

he's using a very lame excuse that he doesn't want to be overly criticized on bitcointalk if he releases his code that supposedly leads to Bitcoiner's losing money.

yet he doesn't realize he's costing Bitcoiner's money by talking in public about what he's sure is a fundamental flaw in mining.  yet, the only reason he has confidence to talk in public is b/c his hack has not been thoroughly vetted. he doesn't want to have his code hack vetted by the world community at large like the hackers of the Heartbleed and Bash bug were willing to do.  his hack has been buried for almost a year.  we need to get this out and once and for all bury this festering doubt.

the other way he causes Bitcoiner's to lose money is to the degree that altscam investors believe him.  i saw this firsthand this weekend.  "oh see, Bitcoin has this major flaw therefore i will invest in this altcoin".  he claims his hack has been vetted by a few core devs.  that may or many not be.  that's still not equivalent to releasing it into the wild for vetting according to open source principles.
