The article, published by NASDAQ, ends with this hinting sentence:

Quote

But you know Bitcoin has arrived when you see one of Wall Street's most venerable institutions sinking money into it...

Does the ETF launch on monday?

Maybe they're referring to NYSE investing in Coinbase.

I was also thinking about NYSE's investment in Coinbase when I read the article. But NASDAQ published this yesterday. They are obviously not hinting about something that happened weeks ago. It's just a gut feeling from my part. Read the article and judge for yourself Wink

Good find Norway.

I normally cringe at such rampant speculation but this thread has seen far worse so now I will provide my own wild theories to the mix Cheesy

I think this gives some weight to that mention from the bitcoinmagazine newsletter (posted here and in /r/bitcoin) wherein they suggest that somebody has provided the largest funding ever to an unknown bitcoin startup. Apparently some stealth bitcoin startup is getting more funding than coinbase!

What if somebody like JP Morgan is funding the largest ever bitcoin private sector bitcoin project. JPM is apparently hiring bitcoin talent, maybe they need somebody to help them manage their huge new investment.

And what if this startup is working on something huge, like a bitcoin based replacement for the SWIFT interbank transfers system.

And what if the folks behind the massive runup in USD swaps on finex are perhaps "in the know" on this matter.

What if.

Thanks, KryptoFoo! Glad someone listens to a newbie, he he.
I am never going to sell my bitcoins. Just spend them in the future (if anybody wants them).
And I think speculations and conspiracy-theories like these are a lot more interesting than people drawing lines on graphs, he he Wink

There has been no massive run up in USD swaps..They are up slightly, sure.

Bfxdata.com is a useful resource.

I know, I wrote about that in the first sentence. My third sentence was this:

They are obviously not hinting about something that happened weeks ago.

To me, this is not about a NASDAQ writer ignoring "competitor" NYSE's investment in an article. It's about a gut feeling that he is hinting about something new. Yet, my gut feeling have proven to be very wrong before, ha ha Cheesy

I agree that the three dots at the end of their sentence hints at something. Maybe it just means they regard the NYSE thing as pretty outlandish.

Sadly for some, the world is often a more simple place than we want it to be. The NYSE is one of the most venerable institutions and they have sunk money into the BTC system. Ergo, one Wall St's most venerable institutions has sunk money into it.

Crazy supposition I know.

Obama: Now we only need a name. The creator of Bitcoin, what could it be?
CIA: What are you thinking Mr. President? First thing that comes to your mind.
Obama: Gotta be something hilarious. "So a man took a shit". Make an anagram out of that. Go ahead lol

Just wanted to quote this bit of comedy for those who might be ignoring these two.

Funniest thing I've seen in ages.

Gotta give credit where it's due.

Lett me get this strait. You are intentionally exposing people to the writings of people you know are purposefully ignored? You are doing this because you know better what people want or ought to read than they know themselves?

It's a fucking anagram, you arrogant ass clown. Circumventing users control of their own experience is a shitty thing to do here of all places. You ought to know better.

You're one to talk, you stupid fuck. The man can do what he pleases, so shut the fuck up.

This reminds me of the happy days of usenet and gnus. There, the standard answer was: Just write a piece of sufficiently intelligent emacs code to filter not only the trolls, but also the troll quotes (and posts that go against you with fatal success in general).

Breaking 300$ soon?

I am buying now, it goes up and all the short can't get it down more than a few bucks. I predict a huge rise up in price Today or Tomorrow.

-snip img-

That would be freaking awesome...
I have predicted the same thing too, saying that it's now the turn of bulls to break the angle and take a shot...

Noice.

$245 is about where I thought I'd draw the line yesterday between "minor retracement, upwards move has some staying power" and "we're probably going back to square one, i.e. $220" ... Holding above $250 is pretty damn good actually, more than I expected.

Trolls are expected to emerge again if and when we go back below that level (alternatively, < 1500 CNY). Until then, I expect them to be rather quiet - except for Lambchop and his alts of course, that guy is unstoppable Cheesy

It was just a joke, bro. Don't be so sensitve!

BJA sensitive LMAO !!
He just LIKES to shout at people ! Especially women, as they are apparently the inferior sex with less grey matter Grin

Oh, and anyone else that may mess with his bean count Cheesy

Question for BJA ... who has more 'rights' ... women or 'ignorers' ?

EDIT: On another note, at the previous auctions, by this stage, we have had people openly saying they will/won't participate in the auction. I don't know how to interpret the silence on this one. I did wonder if the spike was caused by someone who knew something (either way would work ... P&D on low interest or just buying if there is larger interest). But then we have the Mega tweets, so I kinda ruled that out for now
