If I wanted to sell my bitcoins right this minute do you think I could get a higher price? I don't. And that's the only measure of price that matters.

#16Earlier quoted context omitted.
There is a significant change at this time (it was at $80 20 minutes ago)
Where do you get those valuations? Every site I know of is down.
From intermittent access to the live version of bitstamp, sorry but I don't have any screenshot nor high res graph of this exchange. And bitcoinity has lot of lag.

mtgox.com and mtgoxlive.com were both pretty good.
Most BTC exchanges seem to be down right now though.

#18Tell me again why any sane person would accept bitcoin as a currency for goods?
Please quit with the superficial throwaway comments, that's two content-free crowd-pleasers in under 15 minutes.
In answer to your question, pricing goods in a fluctuating currency is a well understood problem, and even with a single Google you'd find the Bitcoin community already have established solutions. The short answer: spot price is 99% noise, so don't use it.
Unapologetic for being annoyed at this stuff. Check parent's submission history, top-voted wise cracks have a ripple effect on the remaining comments for a particular submission.

#19Day low of $70 but now $180. Huge potential profits for some.
Edit: that low is on bitstamp, mtgox has a low of $126. Still huge swings.

What I meant by that is the page will sometimes call a cached version from earlier today, which would be more inaccurate. I had the page load a cached version that had it at $225, and after retrying for a live version, it had it down to $160.
