I have been waiting for ages, I can wait another week. Gemini is a major player, it will enable all the clueless people with money to get on Bitcoin safely and a regulated non sketchy way. The days of the Mt Gox era are starting to look more and more like a nightmare of the past that will not happen again.

so are itbit, coinbase, circle, and other people providing "regulated" ways to get in. it's not gonna make much of a difference. It's just an excuse for people to hope it will bring up the price, but in reality, it's gonna be the same result.

What I am hoping for is major use cases of btc, utility vs exchanges.

coinbase has a nasty customer support staff, some days are good most days are off.

I feel like them launching the right way will help support our btc price. As for utility, its already being a form of money laundering for gambling sites, so I dont know what else its used for as utility.

It would be useful if they offer a debit card that people can instantly withdraw to from the exchange. If it had no sky high charges it would be even better. Bitstamp offers one with ridiculously high charges and I'm not sure if you can make withdrawals from it at an aTM.

Don't forget the coinbase exchange "to the moon" hype and the consequent crash. History repeats itself.

.....and the pump has already begun!

Yeah Gox took advantage of bitcoin being in its infancy & regulation/controls being lax. I'd like to think nothing that horrific will be repeated in our growing community.
Gemini as you say will change the game, older non tech savvy people will be willing to invest & that's where the big money is tbh, the people who can make a difference.
I really hope we get an opening date soon, I'm more excited about the COIN ETF though, that will be huge.

I can't see much price impact. There are already 'legit' options that have arrived relatively recently and nothing much has changed. It probably is a key part of getting the SEC to warm to their ETF so that's the really important part.

Yea it's sequential I would assume. First the get Gemini up and then later will come the ETF. Will the ETF be tradeable on Gemini once approved by the SEC or will it only be on NASDAQ? Either way getting gemini up is an important step for the Winklevoss.

so they finally set it right, i'm waiting like no tomorrow the opening of they exchange, i am excited to know what good thing will bring

maybe i'll do some trade there if i find it comfortable enough
No you will not do some trades there.
You will just continue spamming these forums with your signature campaign.

Yeah , I also have doubts whether he actually trades.  Amph loves to spew random advice and comments.

not random at all, i find my advice to be good enough(modesty aside), and i'm actually doing some trade, but on 1broker, not on a normal exchange

I don't trade, never have. I buy & HODL in the hope that my investment in bitcoin will really pay off in the future but the imminent opening of Gemini could be really good news for the price of bitcoin, I'll of course be happy if the opening can give the price a decent pump.
Can we expect them to begin trading soon? I see a lot of rumours but nothing substantial, no official confirmation anywhere.

 I would expect an announcement by the Feds that it is accepted to do such first ..then wait a couple weeks after
for them to actually launch when they get their ducks in a row and contact folk etc..imho it is how such stuff usually goes ..they can't just turn it on
next week imho w/o such an announcement and go/no go from the powers that be first.

(assuming they don't have before hand knowledge)

just saying not a slam

that's great news, but let's not expect too much from it in the early stage. if there is really demand for such an exchange it will have a great impact on the price.

Title is misleading and outright false. APi has been up for a month at least, it's no news.

No announcement has been made regarding when gemini will launch, and no specific date was given during their fireside chat.

People have been getting Gemini Invites today.

Are you one of those people? Cheesy

What is with all the hype for gemini? What is it going to bring that the other exchanges dont? Monsterous liquidity?

The plebs think the Winklevii will bring them Wallstreet riches, as they are the ones behind it the hope is the supposed veil of wallstreet-iness surrounding them will also surround Gemini.
