RE: Is Bitcoin A (Tulip) Bubble? History's Most Exaggerated Non-Bubble (Even Tulip's Weren't Tulips)

in #bitcoin7 years ago

I read that the Tulip Mania ended primarily due to plague. Folks got too scaredto come out their houses and transact any exchange.

I can't prove that is correct or not correct. What does your research show?

Sort:  

This was definitely a factor, but it's difficult to determine how much it affected what was already a likely-collapsing price bubble. There were a number of rather grave epidemics recorded during this era.
