Firstly, the price is steadying around the $1,050 mark, not some sort of crash. Secondly, this is a failure, but nothing major. Just a company failing to get started. Even when Mt. Gox exited, leaving hundreds of thousands (millions?) robbed of bitcoin, the price of bitcoin only went down about 20-30%. However, the ETF failure is a big shame, and it's not very surprising that the SEC denied this suggested amendment. After all, WHO would be disadvantaged if Bitcoin grew stronger? ;) Title: Re: ETF Disaproved Post by: yogg on March 10, 2017, 09:33:12 PM Quote One commenter states that the market for bitcoin, by trade volume, is very shallow. This commenter notes that the majority of bitcoin is hoarded by a few owners or is out of circulation. The commenter also notes that ownership concentration is high, with 50 percent of bitcoin in the hands of fewer than 1,000 people, and that this high ownership concentration creates greater market liquidity risk, as large blocks of bitcoin are difficult to sell in a timely and market efficient manner. This commenter claims that daily trade volume is only a small fraction of total bitcoin mined. This commenter also states that several fundamental flaws make bitcoin a dangerous asset class to force into an exchange traded structure, including shallow trade volume, extreme hoarding, low liquidity, hyper price volatility, a global web of unregulated bucket-shop exchanges, high bankruptcy risk, and oversized exposure to trading in countries where there is no regulatory oversight.

Title: Re: ETF Disaproved Post by: Victorycoin on March 10, 2017, 09:44:27 PM Would have been surprised if it were the other way round - imagine asking the authorities to put their stamp on Bitcoin. They don't dislike Bitcoin for nothing, it is actually a threat to their survival and relevance and I don't see them undoing themselves.

Quote Those who want Bitcoin will be "saved" from using central entities to hold them. It will motivate people to buy and hold themselves, which is a great thing and is a very positive outcome for decentralization and moving away from the existing banking cartel.

We are at $1130 now, and it is not too different from where we were a week back. Title: Re: Disaproved Post by: lumeire on March 11, 2017, 01:54:04 AM $700 a coin HERE WE COME! Nice smart recovery.

It's a good sign, but IMO the bear isn't over just yet, we're gonna play around this level at least up until next week I suppose.

It is tough to decide whether the bad news has been fully factored in. It has been close to 12 hours... Sufficient for most market participants to take in the news and decide on the strategy. Title: Re: ETF Disaproved Post by: maydna on March 11, 2017, 03:22:12 AM i can imagine if the price is down until reach $700-$800, i think the market is going to panic when they see the price is reach in lower than $1100 and it makes many trader getting prepare to sell their bitcoin. finally the market is really panic and there will be big selling from traders, i hope the price is not going to deep but if this is happen, then its the best time to buy bitcoin with cheap price and make it as our saving money until the trend is up again.

Title: Re: ETF Disaproved Post by: Dudeperfect on March 11, 2017, 05:13:20 AM I am ready to bet with anyone who is against my opinion that bitcoin will be above $1,200 at the end of this year. ETF's decision is important but it won't create long-term impact IMO. I can see rapid growth in the user base and new investors if bitcoin falls below the price mark $800.

We might be able to see bitcoin again at 1200$ soon if things will take the right turn in my opinion, if Chinese don't dump their bitcoin once their exchanges are open we will see bitcoin again at price ranges 1100$-1200$ also there is the possibility that the price will fall to sub 1000$ but it will recover afterwards. So let's just wait what really will happen.Title: Re: ETF Disaproved Post by: Yuuto on March 11, 2017, 05:36:32 AM I am ready to bet with anyone who is against my opinion that bitcoin will be above $1,200 at the end of this year.

Yeah, sooner or later people will realise that the SEC is exactly the thing which bitcoin and block chain technology is designed to replace. We are all working towards a decentralised market, and the Sec in my opinion has to be replaced by a decentralised alternative as well. The price of bitcoin is currently actually quite steady, at around 1.1k per coin. I simply do not see why what you've suggested cannot happen by the end of the year. And the guy who said 700 here we come...

I saw the price and knew it had been declined. There was a decent recovery afterwards though. It's a good thing bitcoiners don't give a shit about the SEC regulations. Unregulated bitcoins are the best bitcoins.

Instead we have stable situation and i think that this can be meaning that IF would be another dump will be really bad this time, or we are so strong than we recovered easy after bots relaxed Title: Re: ETF Disaproved Post by: marcus_of_augustus on March 12, 2017, 12:37:57 AM Would have been surprised if it were the other way round - imagine asking the authorities to put their stamp on Bitcoin.

And you can't even argue against their habit, since Bitcoin mostly positioned itself as an antagonist against their own plot. Any ETF will never succeed. Yeah, I wouldn't be so sure of that. SEC is merely an enforcement arm of the state, not judicial or legislative. It's like going to the cops and asking if you can smoke a dooby in front of them ... unless the cops are you buddies (or dealers) they're gonna throw you in their cruiser. SEC doesn't write the laws or even adjudicate on it. They are merely expected to interpret and enforce the Acts of Law. Do not be surprised if the SEC get sued by the Winklevoss or some other court action going to higher authorities is now going to get set in motion. Hence the reason why it went all the way to a forcing a refusal out of SEC. A simple 'withdrawn' ETF request has no standing in law. Then again SEC is going to be soon populated with Trump appointees who will be especially against over-regulation and may simply overturn these Obama appointees politicised decisions anyway.
