Mt.Gox is giving a high of $266 and a low of $105 right now, so in that sense it’s lost ≥50% of its value already. But that’s exaggerated by cherrypicking the high & the low, and the exchange rate’s hovering around $170 now. We’ll have to wait and see whether it returns below $130ish and stays there.
It collapsed again during the time it freakin’ took me to get back home from university, during which I had 0.42 bitcoins on bitcoin-24.com (I’m not crazy enough to play with more money than that), but now it’s back up. (Mt. Gox seem to be down at the moment and I don’t dare imagine what happens when it’s back; I’m selling some of my bitcoins in case they collapse, but not all of them in case they skyrocket again.)
