Still no ideas of where this rally is coming from (China, West, ...), nor why?
It seems that the price stops increasing for 2-3 hours around 19:00 UTC every day, which is 03:00 in China. So I would think that China STILL sets the price.
Perhaps some Chinese exchange already started operating offshore, and is in beta-test by selected clients?
I don't think you were around last time when I recommended reading this for those who seek to understand Bitcoin
http://principiadiscordia.com/I approve of this message. And because yesterday was a most holy discordian day (FRIDAY the 23.5.) I hereby pronounce all readers of this thread to be discordian popes.
A pope is somebody who is not under the authority of the authorities.
"The rights of a =POPE= include but are not necessarily limited to:
1. To invoke infallibility at any time, including retroactively.
2. To completely rework the Erisian church.
3. To baptise, bury, and marry (with the permission of the deceased in the latter two cases).
4. To ex-communicate, de-ex-communicate, re-ex-communicate, and de-re-ex-communicate (no backsies!) both his-/her-/it-/them-/your-/our- /His-/Her-/It-/Them-/Your-/Our -self/selves and others (if any).
5. To perform all rites and functions deemed inappropriate for a Pope of Discordia.
Please note that discordians are forbidden to agree with each other.
