I love this paragraph:

Quote
According to the job announcement, the firm is seeking a “junior trader to assist with bitcoin trading, general fund operations, and reporting.” As Business Insider’s Joe Weisenthal reports, “This is the first time we've seen this.” Weisenthal infamously ranted earlier this year that Bitcoin Has No Intrinsic Value, And Will Never Be A Threat To Fiat Currency and added further fuel to the fire during the currency's most recent bubble, tauntingly proclaiming that Bitcoin Is a Joke. He’s since changed his mind and this fresh development should only further solidify his aboutface. The longer Bitcoin survives, the more converts it will continue to win over, with Wall Street being the latest arrival to the party.

Yeah, the more money Bitcoin makes the more the so called 'critics' or 'haters' will suddenly embrace and switch to the winning side, this is really fantastic news, good to see the wall street traders hopping in now, I'll get to stea- I mean make my money back from them through the profits I make.

I called their New York number.  There's a place to leave a message for openings.  I think I'll call back again tomorrow & leave a message.

Exciting!

at least he looked into bitcoin and changed his opinion about it. thats much wiser than to decry it just because you did this in the past.  :)

I called, but didn't leave a message.  I'm guessing I can't telecommute from Cleveland... and moving isn't an option right now.

I did tell someone earlier in their career about it tho.

O_O Quote me? I've been definitely suspicious of stuff like ripple and maybe a couple of altcoins and I was suspicious of Bitcoin at first until I found out it was all open source, that's just in my nature these days now though :P since it helps me from getting ripped off or scammed.

Maybe try using a dictionary so that you make sure you understand the meaning of the words you're reading and writing?

It breaks the sorting.
