Bitcoin trading heats up a block away from the New York Stock Exchange

“I’ll buy $796. $797. $798!”

So yelled a man in a bow tie from his perch above a sea of bitcoin enthusiasts ready to buy and sell the virtual currency on Monday night. The action took place in the newly created Bitcoin Center NYC on Broad St., just steps from the New York Stock Exchange.

Richie Hecker stood at the edge of the trading hub clutching a $100 bill. “I’m going to buy $100 of bitcoin tonight. The question is at what price,” he said.

Hecker pushed through the crowd to get closer to the men yelling buy-and-sell orders, which took place under distinctive blue lights. He motioned with his $100 bill when he heard a price he liked, in the early $800s, but was eclipsed by a man who jumped ahead of him. That man was Nick Spanos, who co-founded the Bitcoin Center NYC.
