Sam:
So what's going on with bitcoin now the price is $175. Anyone still got it? Anyone recommend getting some

matt5cott:
Still holding here as  the techs not going anywhere, lots of work is going on building the architecture, I still think we're a good 3 years from proper adoption (if it happens)

US Govt is due to sell some more, could be why it's gone down but that's just speculation from me :)

Walrusbonzo:
I'm still holding a few along with several thousand of another "currency" called ARCHCoin. It's not really a currency though, more like a company stock.

See :- http://www.archcoin.co/ and http://moby.io

As for BTC, the concensus is that the price is being manipulated down, probably to tie in with a climb after the Winklevoss Twins' Bitcoin exchange goes live. So many different conspiracy theories though. I don't pay much attention these days as I'm more into playing Elite Dangerous :D

We may see sub $200 again tonight. I personally think $150~$200 is a buy.

Serious:
Quite a few of the companies mining bitcoin have reduced or stopped production. They made a lot of profit for their owners from dedicated bitcoin hardware that was made to only produce bitcoin.

As with all commodity markets prices can rise and fall. Bitcoin is a young currency so large variations are expected.

Amateurs and hobbyists don't seem to get much of a look in now

Serious:
This might be interesting for bitcoin people. A server using waste heat to heat your home?
