Looks like the most frenzied desperate attempt I've ever seen to get a short squeeze going.

I live in a major US city and work with many business, accounting, and IT types. Over the years not a single one has asked me about bitcoin, even after I mention it a few times.

Today I asked a client who works with investments, a younger guy too, if he'd ever heard of bitcoin. He asked if it was a band.

We still have a loooooooooooooong way to go.

Just been watching fiatleaks money flow - showing no bitcoins into CNY - but lots into USD...

Just wondering are the Chinese somehow buying in USD and selling in CNY?

http://fiatleak.com/

Is it just no data?  Anyone tell me what's up - maybe take a look?

EDIT: I mean CNY into BTC - late evening here!

Yes, there is a notable Chinese population in Vancouver, and I have been told they are buying XBT and selling in China,  still something is driving demand, (may be Pump and Dump with a lot of energy) . And looking at CaVirtex I'm sure lots of the coins moving to China are coming from Canada.

Fiatleak shows NO CNY, but EUR and USD a hell of a lot - looks odd, very odd....

It ain't slowing down - people are selling into it, but I can't see the incoming slowing - bumpy ride in progress, but hold tight!

I don't see how we don't have another "bubble pop" with this parabolic rise, but I'm starting to think it might not be till ~$2k, and probably only a brief flash crash.  So much risk associated with gov't seems to have gone up in smoke today.  That's huge.

You're right. What do you think a positive regulatory environment is worth, on a per-coin basis?

Regulatory pressure was, and still is, the biggest threat I think.  That anxiety has certainly diminished quite a bit in the last 48 hours.  That's what's interesting and unique about this parabolic rise.  Would we have gone parabolic if this "hearing", and surrounding commentary, never occurred?  It's not a true parabolic rise in a vacuum.  

Going back to regulation, I think it would be difficult to think of a better dynamic that could exist today, than the fact that China has jumped into the fray.  This makes it that much more risky for the US gov't to attempt to restrict innovation at home.  After all, "the competition has adopted Bitcoin".  A sort of financial arms race may be in the brewing.
