    So Bitcoin at $1200 was nothing but market manipulation

    I thought it was "bubble looking" at 50, then at 200.... boy was I wrong. When it went from 200 back down with a 50%+ pullback everyone was saying bubble then too. This I do know, price can only go down 100%.....but it can go up many multiples of that. I like "bubbles"

    buying/selling account for Bitcoins?

    +1 Coinbase has been great for me thus far for bitcoins. Then if you want to trade them for some other "majors" go to BTC-E.com .... has treated me well thus far. Otherwise if you are going to hold them for a while, Cold storage is the safest bet.
