Well, yeah ... that's one of the reasons why there's so much attention to bitcoin lately - volatility is through the roof, and a 70% drop in a day is a big deal.
What people neglect to mention is that it rose just as fast.
not quite as fast, but it's still up 300%for the year lol.
It's up a lot more than 300% for the year.
True, I was approximating from when I bought in. More like 500%, when I posted above or 700% now.
