Looks like Chinese bears wake up at 3-4am, perhaps the bulls are sleeping in a bit.

The bulls will make up for this later today, after the bears go home early. They'll be happy to pick up the cheap remainders left behind by current bears.
What time is it in China right now, anyway? I'd say middle of the day?
3pm lol

What I've heard so far:
BTC is ok so long as they play by the anti money laundering rules.
plus it might be awesome.

This is as much about bitcoin as it is about these law enforcers defending their ability to enforce the law. So the track record is good.
So go nuts bitcoin. next stop Mars

Which is okay, the agencies were the wildcard here and they pretty much waved the bitcoin flag the entire time.
Yeah totally agree.

OK so I go out to buy some sandwiches from subway with bitcoin (hooray!), stay for a couple of beers & whiskey, come home and see this? WTF Bitcoin I am drunk and I have no idea what just happened. Did we just "crash" after going up like 25% in 3 hours or what? WTF IS HAPPENING? LOL still great fun to watch
See this attitude tells us..... this isnt a crash. PPL actually enjoying seeing pigs getting slaughtered.
LoL seriously this is Bitcoin. Where else can you just go out for 6 hours and come back to crazy shit like this? I mean I was concerned with paying with btc at a subway store where the guys knew nothing about bitcoin, explaining a bunch of people about btc (I'm getting SPAMMED today by my acquaintances wanting to know about btc), talking about crypto & litecoin in general with some guys and I come back and I see this....hahaha I mean whatever happened today is just too funny to be true, I LOVE BITCOIN, so much fun just watching it. btw I'm too fucking drunk to read the gazillion new pages of the wall observer, can someone give me tl;dr cliffs of what went on?
The story so far:
Senate hearing was surprisingly good (not just good looking). people started buying. things got awesome. we touched $900. then some people wanted to sell. it flooded some order prices down. many complained of some lag. then the sun came out and things got safe in the $700s. which is amazing. and $900 will be back soon.

I agree with Vycid.
This is a good time to do some day trading if you wish to risk and increase your holdings.
It is also a great time for newcomers to hop in if they are willing to ride the turbulence out.

As we discovered yesterday banks can be bought off. I wonder if that will come up again today.

Gallipi just tanked the price... He crapped his pants and did not answer to the last question, what a fail, Shasky and the indian lady yesterday have kicked everybody's butt

what was the last question? i thought he did answer it.
Schumer wants to know how the Feds can get the rest of the bitcoin community to follow bitpays standards.
I thought Gallippi's answer was sufficient.
Of course if these senators were in attendance on day one they would have had fewer concerns about crime in general as they would have heard the excellent answers from the panellists that were in charge of speaking for their respective law enforcement agencies.
Raman for example who stood out for many positive reasons.

All in all some mixed feelings about this hearing.
I was more impressed by the senators than some of the panelists.
Some of their remarks about the profound implications this could have on the economy, banking industry and central banks were absolutely incredible.
On the other hand, I really didn't like much of the regulation stuff. And redhead lady was just f-ing awful.
Totally agree. The tough questions were answered by yesterday's panel. Feels like a step back.
