Where did this "This is gentlemen" thing come from?  It has to be some kind of meme seeing as how it's broken English and makes no sense without the word "it" in there.

I was curious about it too... I'm not a fan of bad grammar though... I stand the cute Doge memes, because he's adorable, but this gentleman saying is a bid odd.  Undecided

It was coined in the reddit forum by someone watching btc prices while driving his car
And he mistyped it that way when he saw this spike starting and since then onwards its been cigars and bathrobes and monocles and heading for champagne  and Lamborghinis and private jets and shit Smiley

I would be brave enough to call this rally a rally now
Perhaps I'll get owned though but its pushing real hard.

The next big spike is  coming, and hopefully this be it
Bacardi and blowjobs on the moon baby!

Does anyone know what caused the 15-20% increase in price? Any big new related to bitcoin in the world?

No big news has affected price for a long time.

Most of the time when price was pumped people linked it to some sort of news so that they could try to find rational reasons for the outcome (just how our brains are programmed, we often seek patterns and find patterns that aren't really there)
Well it is difficult to get money into exchanges quickly if you wish to buy large amounts of bitcoin at once, however it is easy to sell your bitcoin on an exchange once you already own it.

As a result any good news will generally have a delayed reaction while bad news will likely see a quick reaction.

I would say that the recent run up is in reaction to SR2 closing down as it gives bitcoin some level of additional credibility

I'm holding. Glad I replenished some BTC I spent at Purse last week, last night at $369. :-)

I hope folks pull their sell orders unless they really need the fiat; reducing any sell walls out there will help BTC skyrocket and they can sell at their leisure at a much higher future price. BTC should get some good coverage in the media out of this going into the holidays, good timing.

This broke late in the rally, but IMO could be nodal in driving confidence that BTC is "the one" over the next few weeks.

Yes, came too late, but it definitely could be a second stage kicking in.

Yah BTC never reacts to news, apart from when it reacts to news.

I doubt that's anything to do with the price rise.
