Please stop stalking me, I'm not a trader, you bitter old man.

We'll be hitting the transaction limit in the coming weeks. Will be interesting to see what happens when the backlog starts growing by tens of thousands of transactions per day & avg joe can't figure out why his transactions take days to confirm.

like the dumb trader above

Dear friends of CAVIRTEX,

I have some exciting news that is bringing CAVIRTEX back to you! CAVIRTEX has been acquired by Coinsetter, a Wall Street-based bitcoin exchange backed by Barry Silbert.  Their team has now begun operating CAVIRTEX, and will be integrating their high end trading technology and security improvements in the coming weeks. I wanted to send you this communication to explain what the transition means for you as a long-time user, as well as the larger bitcoin community here in Canada.

When we opened our doors in 2011, our goal was to create a reliable bitcoin exchange that would encourage the growth of bitcoin adoption in Canada. Our focus was always on Canadian deposit and withdrawal methods and holding customer funds in Canadian banks that supported the bitcoin movement and our business model.  As we move under the Coinsetter umbrella, I want to confirm that the core focus of CAVIRTEX will not change. Even further, I believe CAVIRTEX’s ability to meet your needs will be greatly improved because of this acquisition. The institutional-grade technology and financial services industry experience Coinsetter’s team is bringing to CAVIRTEX will offer expanded capabilities and even better service for the Canadian bitcoin market.

The support we’ve received throughout the years from our users has been absolutely incredible, and we very much look forward to having you behind us as we continue to improve, grow and most importantly ensure the growth of bitcoin here in Canada.

Thanks,
Joseph David
Co-Founder of CAVIRTEX

Search the text file with ctrl+f the word Bitcoin

You must be new. Banks are secretly accumulating bitcoin off-exchange, that's why the price is so low. At this point, bitcoin pretty much IS banks

I've said a couple of times that these [ bitcoin-dependent ] businesses and their investors should go together to form a BTC stabilization fund. Not to decide the price range, but to keep manipulators from destroying bitcoins utility by manipulating these violent price swings.

what is the most appealing thing about bitcoin?
the fact that it is a ghost outside the machine that cannot be controlled by any one government, bank, or corporation.
as governments and banks around the world fail in whatever way, poeple will get burnt ( bail ins, maybe? wtv SOMETHING will happen ) this will  piss them off, and then they remember that bitcoin thing stands apart from this corrupt system, and see that it was unaffected by the gov or bank's failings and or corruption. They will finally understand why decentralization is so important. Then everything changes.

sadly it looks like bitcoin will implode on itself b4 any of this happens

Still far away.

smells like despair...

unofficial poll

are we there yet?

For BTC to gain it's going to take some large company to say "all we'll accept is BTC or cash" or some real "killer-app" that no one has even dreamed about yet. If Target or some company that got burned would say "we don't want to keep your personal info and only accept BTC or cash" then we would see BTC go up. Don't know if that will ever happen???

Maybe Factcom is the killer app?

I honestly think that BTC might get a hefty push upwards, both in price and profile, if clearing houses start using them in their systems. They move a ton of money at a hefty cost and are heavily incentivized to make use of bitcoin, not just "blockchain techology".
