Title: goldman is setting up a bitcoin trade desk Post by: 600watt on December 21, 2017, 11:52:00 PM they are not jumping in with full weight, more like tiptoeing carefully. but still, it is a remarkable turning point. this is much different from the "blockchain-is-good-bitcoin-is-bad" tone the banks are usually whistling. Goldman is not just a big bank. it is THE bank. if their global clients will have an easy way to actually buy and possess/hodl real bitcoin, expect obscene amounts of money floating in to bitcoin.
bullish! Quote Goldman Sachs Group Inc. is setting up a trading desk to make markets in digital currencies such as bitcoin, according to people with knowledge of the strategy. Quote The move positions Goldman Sachs to become the first large Wall Street firm to make markets in cryptocurrencies, whose wild price swings and surging values have captured the public’s imagination but given pause to established institutions. Already, the bank is among just a few mainstream firms clearing a new breed of bitcoin futures offered by Cboe Global Markets Inc. and CME Group Inc. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-12-21/goldman-is-said-to-be-building-a-cryptocurrency-trading-desk (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-12-21/goldman-is-said-to-be-building-a-cryptocurrency-trading-desk) Title: Re: goldman is setting up a bitcoin trade desk Post by: BTCMILLIONAIRE on December 21, 2017, 11:57:22 PM Uhoh, the time has come!

Despite that some people think that its one big conspiracy team named banks.... They are just like any other company trying to make as much profit as they can. Banks are not really stupid, soon or later they will get involved to make profits. It just a matter of time till they find the best way to make profit from bitcoin. The old statements of banks that btc is a scam is now changed to maybe we should get involved and make some profit ;) capitalism is based on our self interest and grids and works like a well oiled machine. I Am 100% sure that soon or later the regulation will be that you need a bank license to exchange btc, this way al the exchanges need to be have a banking license and this is the only way that banks and governments will be happy.
Gov wil have access to data who have btc for tax reasons Banks will earn on exchange commissions. No conspiracy, just a plain good old fashion bussing as usual thing. Only different is that they can't finally keep printing money.

now he is trying to hype everything that he could, only the ones in where he has money of course. The same as mcafee, only that he have not ever blamed anyone for investing in here, but he is trying to hype as many coins as he can. |
