‘crash stop feature’ sounds very odd. Well, it is recovering again. Next stop $98,500 apparently.[url=http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-price-reach-98500-say-wall-street-analysts/]http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-price-reach-98500-say-wall-street-analysts/[/url]

[/quote]I heard about it. They implemented this after some super fast and super big crash caused by bots?

Not bots actually.
June, 2011. The price went from $17 dollars to a single penny inside of a few minutes. They rolled back all the trades. An account was compromised with a lot of coins, and the hacker sold off all about half a million bitcoins so he could buy more of them back again for cheap before cashing out.

[/quote]In 2011 GPU miners hadn’t been invented yet. But you were wasting your CPU. Had you spent even a few months mining in early 2011 you’d potentially be a millionaire today.
