I hang around old school bankers and lawyers sometimes and the most skeptical ones often cite insurance as a big issue. not necessarily against theft from the exchange, but the ability to just grab you and beat the shit out of you until you give up your passwords and then you lose all your money.

So your old school bankers don't even use cc or internet banking?

i checked out circle today too. it did seem slick aside from some weird stock photos of "happy free good looking people", but lol marketing and stuff...

i got setup to buy 5k usd of bitcoin and it said the fee would be 42 dollars via my linked credit card. i did not buy the coins, just playing around, but the whole process of signing up to being able to buy took a few min. sweet.

the insurance also is great. makes you feel a bit better. However, i did want to add an anecdote about insurance. I hang around old school bankers and lawyers sometimes and the most skeptical ones often cite insurance as a big issue. not necessarily against theft from the exchange, but the ability to just grab you and beat the shit out of you until you give up your passwords and then you lose all your money. they just can't get on board while this is a possibility. they are not interested in securing their own coins to the extent that we early adopters do. Either they dont want to or they just technically can't do it (that is, knowledge, skills, interest, etc).

Circle makes big announcement, price goes down.

It seems that every time someone makes an announcement of something that makes it easier to spend Bitcoins, the price goes down.

if circle so "big" and "good" news can bitcoin price go back over $400 within 1-2 week or stay at $380 ?

of course you cant say it for sure , if 2 weeks not enough for a so good news to push the price up/back $20 for at least 1 week, then i have no more question in short term

To the guys not understanding why this is big and good: I have now 10 friends, that got coins from Circle today.. so it has set something in motion.. They are IT ppl, and wanted to buy bitcoin, but the exchanges look shady.. I know they are right, and localbitcoins is not the place to go and try to buy for a novice. Circle is backed by known name institutions, and is not Mt.Gox... I did not want to sell, I want to buy. So now I can sell them more coins than I mine/trade.. so this is good.

Yeah, this is huge, and the price clearly reflects that. BTC price is shooting through the roof today. We're obviously headed for the Moon or Mars. The demand is just incredible.

Nice avatar btw... oh, wait, you did not get one...

wow you people are pathetic...

Why would the price suddenly start rocketing? It will go up slowly and steadily as circle attracts new people to Bitcoin.

They have a mass advertising campaign going on in universities soon. Even that wont double the price overnight, but they are advertising their service to the right people and as they grow the price will go up...

At least I can buy cheap coins off the naysayers expecting the price to rocket whenever there is some good news just to sell when it doesn't happen...

Or you have ADD  or is just impatient... it will take time, but it will be easier for people to invest or use BTC.. Roll Eyes

I hope you don't live in the US.  If you do you are risking prosecution for financial crimes by selling directly to friends.  The land of the free is not so friendly to financial freedom.

LOL wat?

I'm sure that panic buying will ensue because of this announcement.... right ghuyz?  Right?  Any minute now...

Every big Wall Street player is lining up in this very moment. We'll have 10k prices in a matter of days.  Cheesy

You need to change your username to Butthurt Troll. So negative for no reason.

PS: circle is the easiest bitcoin buying platform I have ever used

Circle is a great product. They really do make it easier, faster, and cheaper to get started with bitcoin.

Hopefully they're able to implement their goal of being fully operational internationally. Services like this really will help unlock bitcoin's potential as core international payments infrastructure, as well as making general consumer adoption easier/nicer

Bitcoiners celebrating that can now buy bitcoins with cc (and pay massive fees) is beyond me...
Americans love plastic and suck at math. It will drive adoption up, even if just a little. Circle plus discounts when paying with bitcoin will drive it up more.

No fees at all if you link a bank account, and once that happens I'll be using Kraken a lot less. Probably just for higher volumes.

Yes, it was the evil banksters, the government and the bear whales trying to manipulate the price to buy more cheap coins.
