Value of Bitcoin "Crashes"

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the smells-like-real-currency dept.

souravzzz writes with an update on the state of Bitcoin. Quoting the Ars Technica article: "Bitcoin, the world's first peer-to-peer digital currency, fell below $3 on Monday. That represents a 90 percent fall since the currency hit its peak in early June." That's still three times its value in April 2011.

    Great marketing campaign. "Bitcoins: Hey, it's not as bad as Zimbabwe!"

    So to answer your question, yes, it's directly comparable.

    No, it isn't.
