I do not think that pump and dump is sponsored by blockchain and speculations like this seems asstalk with no proffs.

Show us any proff.

I heard of this news just 30min before the show the first time. And what announcement did one expect by blockchain.info? That Amazon accepts Bitcoin? That they will buy Bitcoins until it is at 2000$?

I don't get this rtbtc thing, can someone explain why I should give them 240 USD per year?

I think I get the principle of the thing, pretty charts, ease of use... but as I understand it you would have to tie in all your active accounts at the various exchanges, doesn't this simply multiply the risk of someone gaining access to your trading accounts?

Does this platform only apply to "serious" traders? easier for bots to do their arbitrages? or what?

I think you are spot on with the above statement.   $20/month is nothing if you are day trading serious volume, but it seems to definitely expose you to more risk by tying all of your accounts together...

one should read the disclaimers on rtbtc and get a chuckle. pay 20 a month and you get no guarantees at all.

Our info could be !totally! wrong and if you make trades that lose money.. well that sucks dont it! have a nice day.

This.

People love to distort the facts.  The run had little, if anything, to do w/ the tweet.  The price had already climbed way up on the back of that whale long before blockchain sent out their little "announcement coming" tweet crap.

Pump and dump... :) I hate talking this way about price of bitcoin.

We might say - everything what has got a price is pump and dump sometimes.

I think it is entirely possible!
Look at it this way... Insider (whale as you all put it) starts buying. People wonder why? What's changed? As the price continues to move away from the speculators, they start to get nervous. Then the tweet comes out. The speculators start buying the rumor, to be the first in. Then the panic buying sets in and finishes off the job. By this point, the price is +$120 and the insiders are selling to the final panic pushes above $700.

It's not that hard to believe when the market was just waiting for a reason to pick a side. They chose it for you, and there was plenty of help from the market.
