They have been pushing for BC derivatives and institutional investing. It's always the casino where the real leverage is applied. Seems they are really ready to leverage here. Seems the institutional money is now flowing to BC.
Blythe Masters’ Ex-Husband Launches Bitcoin Hedge Fund from the Island of Jersey
quote: Masters, co-principal of Global Advisors Jersey Ltd.—which trades up to $2 billion of energy and equities—is the latest of a handful of fund managers trotting out new Bitcoin investment funds in recent months,
.... he estimates the value of Bitcoin could rise to $2,000 or more.
.... Netagio, based in the Isle of Man—a Crown dependency, like Jersey—announced the debut of a London-based Bitcoin exchange that will allow individuals to trade Bitcoin against the British pound and gold.
Good find. Interesting to watch what is going on in the various markets at this time.
Interesting times indeed, CDusr! And it will get even more so as we head into fall.
Also saw your Zero Hedge / reverse repo thread. That was definitely worth the read.
Off-topic (obviously) but sure-fired moneymaker - shorting leveraged multiplier ETF's. You know the 2x and 3x bear / bull vehicles. Leverage decay just happens over time. Always does. Wait for some of these upcoming volatility spikes, short any of them (UVXY, TZA, FAZ, etc.).

Changes are certainly on their way. I expect the rest of this year to be interesting.
The Fed will never allow the Bitcoin to get to big....
Watch.
Whether BC gets big or not is really unimportant. The question really is what is next. BC has been at the very least an interesting experiment and don't forget BCs origins. Things are often not what they may seem.
JPMorganpatents Bitcoin-like payment system - Dec. 10, 2013
quote:
The system includes digital wallets, the ability to transfer money to anyone and anonymity too, according to a patent application filed to the U.S. Patent and Trade Office on Aug. 5. A blog on Let's Talk Bitcoin first reported the story.
.....
It does, however, say what led to its development: The modern financial system is outdated.
In the patent application, JPMorgan notes two trends that are making the old banking system obsolete. One is that merchants are establishing direct relationships with customers -- and they don't want middlemen slowing down the transfer of money. The second is that digital products are often sold in small increments for very low prices, and the currently high price of per-transaction fees don't make sense.

Bubble blowing seems to be the norm. There are much bigger bubbles being blown, however. Abstraction on the backend is a critical component to this.

It would not surprise me one bit to find more than the usual amount of investment stupidity out there in the BC markets. So the Wolves should be salivating! I would wonder if high frequency trading might be a BC miner in itself.
