An increase in to the 300s, 400s would be nice and create an exciting atmosphere once again.

This forum will be fun during the next big rally!

Remember rjclarke when we hit the $317, how much fun it was Cheesy

You are right, the next BIG rally will be so fun to witness Cheesy

In latest TechCrunch Bitcoin Podcast, host states that he 'has seen' Gemini and that it is 'coming soon'

Thanks for that my old friend Fakhoury. Will go & read the link now. I've been awaiting an update on Gemini, it's not something that'll send us to the moon but upon breaking news that it opens for business (whenever that is) we should get a 100 USD pump surely?

Edit - I remember somebody posted a link to the Gemini instagram account. I just had a little look & their latest post was yesterday, a picture of a roller coaster or something. They went on a team day out.......How about you give us a date when your exchange will finally open Wink

You are most welcome my best friend LFC Wink

Well, what I think about Gemini is, both COIN ETF and Gemini will make the magic, not Gemini alone.

Gemini will sure help us in our journey, maybe we can get a mini rally as you said, somehow sure about it.

I want you to read my topic about the mass adoption, it makes a lot of sense that we will witness it in 10-15 years from now.

Man I remeber I signed up like 2 months ago.. and its still on like a coming soon page lol.

I feel like they will launch like mid 2016 to be safe and jan 2016 is just not concrete based on their life style of not needing money that bad lol.

Any update on this? Any estimated date of opening for trading? The last 'newsworthy' thing I saw related to Gemini was a dumb ass pic of some donuts on their official instagram page. I don't think there's been anything official for a while. They're certainly taking their time Sad

The latest is that they've been in Monaco per his Twitter. Looks like they're living it up.

Sounds about right.

I mean they got a ton of cash from facebook, and then they do these bitcoin launch as side projects so its not really like they need money or anything.

Heck, gemini could fail and they be still be good on money. Roll Eyes

Gemini is dealing exclusively with US banks. I think members outside US cannot use it to buy and sell bitcoin. The rest of the world still need more large legit exchanges like Gemini to reduce friction.

Cant the other countries just still buy bitcoin from gemini..

I mean its how most are trying to always buy from btc-e the sketchy exchange, but it`d be the same concept of sending them a wire or other form of SEPA money that they accept and send you btc. After they go through the typical verification process.

I know a gold and oil future day trader that is looking to trade bitcoin on the winks' exchange that is coming up. This outfit is gonna go big.

Id assume they launch it at the same time, so it benefits for both sides to traditional investors as well.

Since they offer up the exchange they prob have something on the site where traditional investors eventually buy it from their exchange as well.

There's also this entry:

GEMINI TRUST COMPANY, LLC
30 West 24th Street, 4th Floor, New York, New York 10010

Application for exemption from the deposit insurance requirements of Section 32 of the Banking Law received.

Uh oh. Potential fraud alert.

This is the same model as itBit in that they assign custody of clients' fiat funds to partner banks hence the exemption to register for FDIC insurance.

I hope they get their shit together soon. It's taking too long and people is starting to talk about this as vaporware, just like Openbazaar. It's the problem of announcing something when it's still to underdeveloped, you hype people way too soon.

lol you guys are over estimating the winkles.

also, the etf is not going to happen anytime soon (within the next year).

They even switched legal advisors, for Gemini trust license they are now using Kaye Scholer LLP instead of Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP (which is/was used for their ETF)

I guess Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP couldn't get the job done, so they found another attorney.

good indicator: a few months before the ETF goes live because they will submit another S-1A excluding companies like mtgox, btc-e, and including companies like itbit, gemini, coinbase exchange etc

I think the SEC looked at the current, and previous, S-1A's with all those shady companies and laughed.

also, Gemini and ETF are unrelated. gemini is not a magic pill to get the ETF approved.

Gemini and itBit are practically the same in terms of regulations. And itBit is already launched. ETF's dont require the sponsors to launch their own exchange.

You should check the facts before sharing your fud Wink

As an additional note this is interesting because it pretty much confirms the theories of Gemini being a integral part of the ETF process.
