Is it time?   Woke up 7:30 AM Eastern Time, Bought 26 at $210 and saw it go straight to $203.  

Now $213, maybe I should sell the news?

It wouldn't be a great surprise if the whole move down from ~400 was an orchestrated buy up of bitcoins prior to the ETF going live, would it?

i thought they already has a lot of bitcoin for the etf ?



I think he is talking about others inside the loop.

ok,
that makes sense...

What does NYSE have to do with an ETF that is to launch on the NASDAQ?

The Coinbase investment is amazing though, it really goes to show how miniscule Bitcoin's current market cap is when compared to valuations of Bitcoin companies.

I think from what I gather is it creates transparency... which is something you need for investing / trading. Like I said I am not sure what is all required in stuff like that but I would think that would be one thing you would need.

Why do loads of you guys want the price to stay low?
I'll never understand it.

Personally, I just want it to be at the right level for smooth adoption.

This, plus you need a SMOOTH and STEADY climb in price. Any kind of violent rise in price never ends well... as we all have seen... at least those of us around long enough to see a few bubbles.

Looking at the order books, i'm not convinced we're moving anywhere (significantly...)
Agreed. Good to see steady finally

With that said CoinBase just got a huge infuse of VC....

http://recode.net/2015/01/20/bitcoin-firm-coinbase-raises-75-million-from-dfj-the-nyse-and-two-banks/

Yep, bitcoin is dead  Cheesy
Coinbase has raised $75m as part of a Series C funding round backed by a host of impressive first-time bitcoin investors including the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), Fortune 500 financial services group USAA, Spanish megabank BBVA and Japanese telcom giant DoCoMo.

Too add onto that... I think this is from NYSE themselves:

Not sure what is all required for such things , but maybe this is laying the ground work for such a thing. You need to be an open book if/when the big boys start to play around in it I would assume.

Ssh. Keep it quiet until I can buy another 15 coins next week.

Well if history is any indicator, then the price will go DOWN with this news. BTC always seems to go backwards in price with any kind of decent news/ acceptance.
