Skype Bitcoin Trojan

[ramesh]

A trojan that can hijack a computer and force it into mining for Bitcoins - the virtual currency - has been spreading via Skype. Antivirus firm Kaspersky Labs said attackers sent messages in various languages translating to "this my favourite picture of you". The message included a malicious link which was, at its peak, being accessed more than 2,000 times every hour.




(Translation from Spanish: ?this is my favorite picture of you)

I expect this Bitcoin bubble to burst at around 400USD, or when the Cypriot government frees up the banks. Whichever one comes first.

You consider a currency reaching $400 to be a bubble ?

[Satanforce]

Yup. In fact, it burst at 200 USD. It wold get to 400 because at that point, its all sellers, and nobody rich enough to buy. And its not a currency at that point - it becomes a commodity. A commodity with no intrinsic value.
