Why havent the price gone up already!

The price won't go up that quickly just because Gemini exchange is launching. It will take some time for this exchange to settle and win customers from all over the world.

At this point they only accept customers from the USA. I hope they will start to roll out their service to the entire world very soon.

Shame there's only half of the states in America can use it.

But the question becomes, would people who know about bitcoin in America really would want to use it?? I'm still on the fence about this whole thing, I would really not like to have some website that's indirectly controlled by the government to have all my personal information and know exactly how much I buy and what I buy it with... What good is that when bitcoin is supposed to be a "global cash unit"? The benefits of bitcoin in the beginning was that it was to have the benefits of cash, without the inflation... now the whole thing is just becoming sketchy to me.

If you are looking for privacy, you can buy BTC from localbitcoins.com. And if you are looking for advanced privacy solutions, then use anonymous coins instead of BTC.

It hasn't opened up yet. Any big players and big money that wants to come in and play doesn't have a chance to trade yet.

Just keep watching the line go up and up for the coming weeks.

Yes, but because people are going to see a slight increase in the beginning with gemini pumping.. people really don't seem to care as long as it makes them some short profit.

I can see some sort of Gemini Pump and Dump happening.
We have seen this many times before (Litecoin Huobi and the infamous Coinbase P&D).
Exciting times anyway. Did someone already make a countdown timer? Tongue

So I'm just curious, I know for a fact that they share your personal info like SS# and other things you have to provide them to the government which they can choose to do whatever with.. Doesn't this scare anyone? I know it scares me, and I never do anything illegal with my Bitcoin, just the fact that they have ready access to this makes it feel something shady is going to happen...

Same with Coinbase more or less. Its frustrating to be asked where your Bitcoins come from.

Any risk for ETF's being created to be used against bitcoin? I know right now it's a simple exchange more or less.

ETFs are still not approved. I guess we will just have to be patient and hope the regulatory bodies will approve them soon. Anyways I think that the Gemini exchange had to be approved first in order for ETF's to come. At least I remember reading something like this.

Anyways, having another legit exchange which will be much closer to the stock market type of business people is a great news for Bitcoin.

Another one. Sorry, I didn't have a press release article at first (I found out about it because I joined their mailing list to be notified when it was open).
