That drop you're talking about was around the first times bitcoin services were hacked. It showed people they can be stolen if the system holding them isn't as secure as the Bitcoin network itself, and everybody just walked away from them.There's been a number of alternative cryptocurrencies though. Litecoins being the most succesful, I think. Those are even still around last I heard. Not sure what's up with them, but my point is that your prediction is already true and the price is continuing to increase at an ever faster rate.Word of mouth is exponential. The more people that know about them, the more people that talk about them, the more people that get interested and buy some, and it spreads faster & faster & faster. Which I assume is what we're seeing. I wouldn't be surprised if they dropped like a stone after a high publicity hack or something... but I'll wager you 5 BTC that they hit $30 within a week and a half ;)
