Title: CaVirtex is coming with Leveraged Bitcoin trading Post by: Transisto on March 22, 2013, 04:04:51 AM Some very promising stuff comming from CaVirtex
As shown in Page 8 : https://www.havelockinvestments.com/fund.php?symbol=VTX Quote VirtEx plans to allow customers to short the Bitcoin and launch a new fund on Havelock Investments (HAVELOCK), the VirtEx Shorting Fund (VTXSF). Just like the stock market, when any short position is initiated a loan takes place and interest is charged on that loan. The interest collected from short positions on VirtEx will be equally distributed to shareholders of VTXSF and paid daily. VTXSF will pay up to 12% per year interest while guaranteeing the initial Bitcoin investment. As of now, VirtEx would be the only exchange in the world paying interest on Bitcoin deposits. VTXSF will be created for the following reasons: Bitcoin Speculation: VirtEx does not take a speculative position on Bitcoin and so customers interested in holding their Bitcoin may want to invest in the fund and earn interest while taking a speculative position. Marketing: Once the word spreads that VirtEx is offering a Bitcoin interest paying fund that is 100% secured by an exchange many more customers and investors will take notice (IPO got released today) Title: Re: CaVirtex is comming with Leveraged Bitcoin trading Post by: Sage on March 22, 2013, 04:17:10 PM They mention shorting, but what about leveraged positions LONG BTC/USD?
Title: Re: CaVirtex is comming with Leveraged Bitcoin trading Post by: dooglus on March 28, 2013, 10:57:39 AM Is there a thread about CaVirtex in general? I can't find one.
I'm wondering if they offer any kind of 2-factor authentification on their exchange. I can't find that either!

I have an account on there, but no balance yet because of the fees, and I just searched the site and found no options or mention about 2-factor authentication.I'm wondering if they offer any kind of 2-factor authentification on their exchange. I can't find that either! They should start an official thread. I will pop them an e-mail right now about creating a thread. I am surprised they aren't maintaining one on here. Title: Re: CaVirtex is comming with Leveraged Bitcoin trading Post by: medicine on March 28, 2013, 01:58:41 PM e-mail inquiry sent.

I found it, here (https://www.cavirtex.com/faq#site_security): Quote Additional Security: We have plans to introduce two-factor authentication in addition to your e-mail. We are exploring services such as google authenticator and SMS text to phone before being allowed to withdraw or trade. I expect it will be added very soon since google authenticator is pretty much trivial to add to a site. There's a very short Python script here (http://stackoverflow.com/a/8549884/1253362) which shows how simple the algorithm is. Title: Re: CaVirtex is coming with Leveraged Bitcoin trading Post by: mik3 on March 28, 2013, 08:21:56 PM Damn the VTX fund doubled, now crashing down to regular price...why are people selling, I don't get it...
Title: Re: CaVirtex is coming with Leveraged Bitcoin trading Post by: Transisto on March 28, 2013, 08:26:35 PM Damn the VTX fund doubled, now crashing down to regular price...why are people selling, I don't get it... my guess is they sell it because the price of BTC is rising, This has a positive effect on Cavirtex profits but in the longer term.I'm grabbing some more. Title: Re: CaVirtex is coming with Leveraged Bitcoin trading Post by: superbit on March 28, 2013, 08:26:54 PM Damn the VTX fund doubled, now crashing down to regular price...why are people selling, I don't get it... The IPO wasn't in BTC but was pegged at $30 per share and the BTC price was adjusted during the IPO to keep it at $30 (or near). So the giant rise in BTC would all of a sudden value impact hat IPO price greater then it should. If that makes sense. Title: Re: CaVirtex is coming with Leveraged Bitcoin trading Post by: Sukrim on March 28, 2013, 10:59:29 PM Actually Bitfinex offers interest on Bitcoin deposits for quite a while now... and you can go long there too! How did they come up with these 12% and what is guaranteed as a minimum? 0%? More?
Title: Re: CaVirtex is coming with Leveraged Bitcoin trading Post by: Lucifer on March 29, 2013, 04:39:00 PM VertEx is the exchange that I do the most trading with because I live in Canada. They have been very reliable and I spoke with someone at their customer support phone line who was able to help me quickly. There were some slow-downs yesterday because of the crazy volatility BTC experienced. They are upgrading their servers today. They seem to be very forward thinking and I hope they continue to grow. The more solid, reliable bitcoin exchanges out there the better for everyone.

I've been using them since they opened. Title: Re: CaVirtex is coming with Leveraged Bitcoin trading Post by: medicine on April 04, 2013, 02:15:28 AM I did get an email reply from the CaVirtex CEO saying they do plan to manage an official thread on bitcointalk in the near future.
I am wondering what's up with the share price. I see they're trade volume increasing weekly and have heard nothing but good reviews about their service. I'm guessing there aren't many people trading their shares and the few people who are, are trying to take profit by jumping between the spread. Seems like with many bitcoin companies the share prices fall as Btc gains more value against the dollar, why is that? The earnings all come in the form Btc so wouldn't an increase in trade volume on CaVirtex create more value in the shares?

The earnings all come in the form Btc so wouldn't an increase in trade volume on CaVirtex create more value in the shares? My guess would be the trade volume in CAD is rising, but in BTC is falling. As the price goes up it takes more CAD to buy less BTC. Title: Re: CaVirtex is coming with Leveraged Bitcoin trading Post by: medicine on April 04, 2013, 06:32:18 AM That is true for the buy side of things because they take a % in CAD, but on the selling side of every trade they are taking their % in btc.

Hi medicine, Was looking through some old threads and I noticed this one. We have set up an official CaVirtex thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=218435.msg2296660#msg2296660 Also, if you're not already aware, we do have 2-factor authentication. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks.
