This is a hugely misleading statement. Zoom out. Regarding the previous 2 hours one could say "Bitcoin collapses by $10 in just two hours". Zoom further out... Look at the last year... Looks like it might recently be a bit of a bubble.

It wasn't meant to be misleading. It was meant to be funny. There was another post here about how Bitcoins went down $10. By the time I saw the post it already went back up. So... yeah, I just posted it more as a response to that other post.
People on IRC keep trying to tell me bitcoin is stable. I'll never understand what their reasoning is.
It's a half statement without a time scale attached to it. Stable over what period? A day? A month? 5 years?
