The guy talks about how the trades take place in today's exchanges. EDIT: Honestly don't know if an implementation of that technology he talks about would be good for bitcoin...Maybe not for speculators, as the price couldn't swing too much in a short time.

Maybe he's mourning Margaret Tatcher's death...

Max is credible. He actually did invent virtual stock exchanges back before Satoshi or anyone knew what they were. So he should at least be respected for having been a legit contributor to the field of study he's discussing. He's not Alex Jones. Alex Jones never invented a damn thing and isn't an intellectual in any field.

Yeah having a decentralized currency centralized in one exchange is fairly obviously less than ideal.  Especially when that exchange is so problematic.

Down with gox. Then again, I use bitcoin-24, but it's the same archaic trading engine, or a bit worse. And worse, their polish account got frozen because of some guys sending money there from stolen e-bank accounts, and now I've got my money stuck there, can't withdraw, or trade. If only there was a good exchange...

Kaiser went from the major cargo cult shaman to a babbling retard. I remember Bruce Wagner looked exactly like that during the end.
