I also hope that Wall street people stay away from bitcoin. We don't need their dirty tricks here.

Are you serious, wall street keep away?
Just incase you missed the news but the winklevi have been trying to launch their EFT for ages now, most people have been waiting for it. It might just bring that 2nd price spike everybody is waiting for.

Well they better hurry the f up, because it's lossing traction, it's taking way too long.

What are you talking about? Most people only learned about Bitcoin a year ago and the fiat system is still considered safe.

It might push up the price but the market already priced it in almost entirely.

Bitcoin will just get added to Wall Street's portfolio, as another asset class.
I guess it is going to be more of an opportunity to Wall Street, than a threat.

Only if the Facebook Twins can make it happen... Cheesy

They are facilitators, legal advisers, market makers, sellers, liquidity providers. Maybe they could add value to Bitcoin

I am a big fan of btc but think it will be a few years yet before it meaningfully competes with wall street
Wall street is pretty good at late adopting at scale to avoid being sidelined

You might not consider the MaidSafe IPO as meaningful competition, but facts are facts. Competition has started. MaidSafe did a major IPO. Shares are traded daily on an active market. MaidSafe funded themselves and distributed shares - with no lawyers and no bankers and no outrageous fees. Don't you worry, there will soon be another company going down the same path, then another, then another. Then you'll have your meaningful competition. But for now, the system is active and being used. The damn thing works!!!

Wall Street = Giant Casino

Bitcoin = Casino that resides outside of the broken financial system.

Unfortunately this is a true statement. There are still a lot of good people fighting the good fight but when it boils down to it, it seems that people are more interested in lining their own pockets then bringing about adoption. Maybe I'm wrong who knows? This is just my personal feelings.

Sometimes I just wonder whether they should stay away for the good of bitcoin. If they can mess up fiat just like what has been done right now, it can still happen the same with bitcoin, even though you might argue crypto coins work different. Eventually for these Wall Street, the only thing that matters is filling money into their pocket. Nothing else....

A few years is nothing. If more people thought it was likely that Bitcoin competes with Wall Street in a few years the price would be closer to 10,000$ than 1000$

The real story is that MainSafe did an IPO, raised a shitload of money, continues to trade actively today - all without a single fucking Wall Street lawyer or banker or the SEC.

That is an incredible feat for sure. Elimination of Wall Street manipulations and crooked bankers is what is really going on. MaidSafe did it with huge balls. Their public offering was remarkable. The press can't even figure out how they accomplished that.

Cryptocurrency - brilliant. Wall Street - finish.

Some investment banks give a service much needed to do financial transactions following the complicated laws.

Wall Street have never missed the train, probably it's not open to the public; but they have already joined Bitcoin and started making some sweet money from here...

These wall street hyenas have 2 options:

1) Join Bitcoin
2) Lose the train and get engulfed by it

I see the majority joining in at some point. They care about one thing...making money! That's it. There is money still on the table with BTC and these operations are ruthless. They could care less whether it is a Ponzi or the technology waive of the future, if there is money to be made, they will jump on it. Nothing else matters.
