Title: 2013-06-23 Coinsetter aims to launch its Bitcoin trading platform in July Post by: Birdy on June 23, 2013, 10:18:37 PM http://thenextweb.com/insider/2013/06/23/coinsetter-aims-to-launch-its-bitcoin-trading-platform-in-july/
Quote Enter Coinsetter, a high-performance, U.S.-based leveraged trading platform for Bitcoin that raised $500K this past April from Tribeca Venture Partners and SecondMarket founder and CEO Barry Silbert. Based in New York City’s Fueled Collective, this startup is working to become Wall Street’s professional connection to Bitcoin; its objective is nothing short of legitimizing the Bitcoin industry in the process.

Title: Re: 2013-06-23 Coinsetter aims to launch its Bitcoin trading platform in July Post by: TraderTimm on June 25, 2013, 12:01:03 AM What everyone seems to forget is how more trading platforms just play into the long-term strategy that Satoshi most likely envisioned. Each trading center is merely a "bridge" to the bitcoin ecosystem. In the long run, we will depend less and less on these chokepoints as they conveniently convert all the flawed currencies into the cryptographically secure bitcoin.
They also serve as convenient temporary targets for the existing system to attack, so more of them equals more diluted effort from any centralized source, which mirrors Bitcoin's internal workings - having its resources distributed means resilience in the face of any serious effort to attack it. This is why more trading platforms are better, and ultimately will only exist in very consolidated forms when fiat currencies are looked upon as the paper/plastic trading tokens they really are. Just another step toward total BTC dominance.

Title: Re: 2013-06-23 Coinsetter aims to launch its Bitcoin trading platform in July Post by: Rygon on June 25, 2013, 06:31:38 PM In light of all the issues at other exchanges and Bitcoin enterprises, one would think that they would have mentioned whether or not they will have all the appropriate licenses in the US to operate as a money exchanger, forex, etc.
I certainly hope that they will have success in bringing in big money to the markets by providing higher levels of security and so-called "Wall Street connections". But I haven't seen anything yet that looks like they have any pre-existing connections to Wall Street markets that could be leveraged. I hope they have a hell of a sales team to bring in the big traders.

A lot of experience, yes, but I'd be more excited if there was someone involved in this that had serious connections at a high level doing international trading. Perhaps Lukasiewicz has those kind of connections from work at JP Morgan and Madison Williams, but he could have just been another mid-level investment banker among thousands.

We're all entitled to our opinions. My interest is in Bitcoin, not money. Wall Street is interested in money, not in Bitcoin. |
