This is interesting!!

https://news.bitcoin.com/koreas-largest-messenger-app-launching-exchange-with-110-cryptocurrencies/

The operator of Kakao Stock, a popular Korean securities trading app based on the country’s number one smartphone messenger app Kakao Talk, is launching a cryptocurrency exchange called Upbit. Over 110 cryptocurrencies will be supported initially including bitcoin, ether, and litecoin. The company says that it will be the largest digital currency exchange in South Korea.

(volume methinks)

Kakao Talk Mobile Messenger Has Over 100 Million Users - http://www.kakao.com/talk

I looks like it uses Kakaos/ UpBit.com frontends and runs/trades Bittrex in the background....

Interesting indeed. Think snapchat telegram WhatsApp and mobile bank (and lender) all rolled into one...Kakao have their fingers in many pies see here http://www.kakao.com/main and now with a upcoming cryptocurrency exchange... these guys are going to be able to buy cryptos easy as 1..2...3 everyone is already plugged into the system all KYC'd up.... and if they integrate across their platforms.... wowwza

South Korea - don't discount their buying power or appetite for cryptocurrency

All it takes is for a few countries to be liberal in their approach to cryptocurrency which we are seeing more than one instance of right now...

Ya might not be able to see it yet.... but South Korea is going to be (continue to be) huge for Cryptocurrency.... the country is the perfect incubator for it... all of those interlinked technophile internet junkies are going to gobble up lots of coins IMO

If they ban it permanently they won't be able to ban it again (and again), so makes total sense.

Imo they never had the plan to Bitcoin or crypto currencies!
It's all just FUD again and again to get the coins from people with weak hands.
And it looks like there are always enough of them to play the FUD card!
And trust me, in the future they will come up with some other bs to shake the market and get your coins.

This. If only people knew what was really going on. Deep pocket hedgers and investors want to take large long positions, but there aren't enough coins on the exchanges. Mining is too slow, OTC selling out constantly. So the only way is to 'shake the trees' again and hope more coins fall out from weak hands.

Woups.
I had the good idea to open a short yesterday, for the night, but I protected it with a stop buy instead of an oco order...
So long for the overnight dip profits.

All that effort and negative consequence (18 months in Jail) for $250K, and all he need to do was wait with about 62BTC until today and he would have got it for free.

62BTC is about 0.03% of what he actually stole.

Ugh.. Trendon Shavers, I remember many people pointed out that this has got to be some kind of ponzi scam. Yet there were flame wars going between supporters of the scheme and more skeptical people. Not the best time in the Bitcointalk community. Yes, I do have an account from late 2012, but I am not login that in until Theymos implements some kind of 2FA or Google login. Too many people lost their accounts to hacks recently.

Yes, and what you find below also reinforces it
https://hacked.com/btcusd-gaining-momentum-chinas-bitcoin-ban-seen-backfiring/

I mean this time looked a bit more problematic with the first announcements which sounded very hard. Now it looks like we are going to see a change. Either way, as you all know, bitcoin will die many times before its death.
Back to business, we need to cross $4K again

My guess is this was all just whales splashing around and if I was a smart trader I'd probably sell and buy back lower. But nope. Cool

I have read a hundred times already, in this forum, that:

Bitcoin is down because of China news of banning criptocurrency, but it will go up again.
News of China banning bitcoin again reached weak hands, but it will recover.
Bitcoin down because China exchanges ban, but it is now up again.
China made bitcoin go down again.

What about adopting a parrot? We are all pirates, after all. This way we can save our fingers some effort.
