Virtex has been trading below the MtGox price for quite a while now. Seriously MtGox USD 5.63. Virtex ask 5.45 CAD or 5.31 USD. That is a 5.7% difference. I have seen the spread even higher. A great place to buy Bitcoin at market.

i would think Virtex  gets more day traders over time
and the day traders are increasing theirs order size over time

i would imagine this is the same story in all bitcoin markets


Makes sense. I also think more and more people are going to start dumping fiat money and flocking to Bitcoin as world economic conditions continue to deteriorate.

ya I've been using Virtex since it come out.
I've only seen the order books get filled with increasingly larger orders


What do you think could be behind this? People rushing to convert large amounts of fiat into Bitcoins before it takes off? Or some form of shenanigans?   Grin

Wow, I've only been using Virtex for a couple of months but I can't recall ever seeing buy orders this large:



I feel really fortunate that I was able to get the majority of my coins under $5 - I don't see it dipping back down that low anytime soon. At this point I'd be jumping for joy at $5.20 CAD. Come on weekend dip  Grin

its feel like, even if mtgox goes back to 5.3x, Virtex will only drop to 5.2x

Anyone have any idea why?

Yeah, I know exactly why: NO TRADING API.

they were not selling, and I don't really need the cash at the moment.. so I figured might as well keep them in cold storage..

Does cavirtex let you withdraw that much if you get some sort of level 2 authorization (like gox)? Didn't see anything on the site if you trade more than 10k month

From the transfer methods page linked at the bottom of the site.

ya,

we're looking at a slow slid back to 4.9's, until mtGox shoots up a bit...

i think we will stay over or very close to mtgox price for a long time

plan your trades accordingly Wink


Yeah, though I'm new to Bitcoin I just knew the sub $5 prices weren't going to last, so I've been buying pretty heavily all month. I figured I missed sub $10 silver, I sure as hell wasn't going to miss sub $5 Bitcoin as well  Grin

I can totally see another deflationary crash coming in the real world, a la 2008, but given the action over the last couple of weeks with the metals getting beaten down and Bitcoin holding steady, even rising a little, I don't think it would be wise to wait and hope for lower prices. I'm going to keep buying into dips, however small they may be.

very smart.
