I was a bit disappointed that I didn't buy on Nov 10th as I watched Bitcoin go down to 264.99 USD per coin on Coinbase at 11:36am EST, only to watch it rise back up to over 1k USD per coin soon after.  I nearly bought at 277.60 USD per coin at 1:02pm EST, and again at 285.00 USD per coin at 3:24pm EST, but I hesitated.  This is just another opportunity to buy cheap Bitcoin before it rises again IMHO, so this time I'll not hesitate.

Bitcoin is currently the leader in cryptocurrencies, and people tend to judge the value of other cryptocurrencies based on it, so yes, I think for the near future NXT will fluctuate with the value of Bitcoin.

A strength Nxt Coin has, as apposed to the alt-coins, is that it is not a fork of the Bitcoin code base.  I think in order to decouple the price of Nxt Coin from Bitcoin, the differences must be highlighted in a friendly and easy to understand manner in order to build confidence in it. 

The decentralized wallet is a huge strength Nxt Coin has over Bitcoin.  My first thought when I learned I could access my wallet from anywhere with network connectivity, was "hell yeah, sign me up!"

Bitcoin has a nice video introduction that is easy to understand.  Nxt Coin should have something similar. 

But I digress; perhaps another thread would be more appropriate for further ramblings.

Nothing to see here folks, just a small panic attack because of Baidu :)

I've been following the BTC course, never seen such a volatile currency.  Trading might have huge pay off (or you lose it all)

oakwarrior, agree
BTC didn't drop more than 1/2 of his top state. So some fluctuations is OK.

Personally I bought btc and nxtcoin when they were high last week and now my holdings have gone down by 30 and 75% respectively for both coins but this is just a short term blip. I would like to see though the coins becoming more mainstream and less technical and nerdy for the la folks like myself. :)

well everything is well on the way back up.  QRK is leading the charge.  Even IFC is starting to pick up.  And Nxt is still dropping.
Not a stakeholder, so NXT accepted here: 12692935506199079028 if you think I've given value here

Everything seems to be on track to being back to where we were before the crash. I hope you guys bought as much as you could during the crash?
