If someone came up with a trading platform (like an exchange) I would be interested in trading options in BTC, settled in GBP. I would even consider proper market making providing bid-offers for an entire strip of options and different maturities. If in a few years, trading volumes have continued to increase at the current rate, I could even consider coming up with such a service as a full time job (not worth it yet though  ) I could do that, but I'd have no idea how to compute capital requirements for those selling options. How? |

Did some arbitrage and lending to speculators.

theres all the info they have on it on Ig.
"Contract" Against a value displayed on a web site. Only a fraction of a bitcoin needs to be traded above or below the limit for every bet to be settled. Expect a massive DDOS on Mtgox at this time and date ! Question we all ask: Will they manipulate the price up... or down? |

How big execution losses / wins did Bitfinex have? As a lender I need to know this, to evaluate the risk.

What if it was a bear trap?

None of these other charts come close to the bitcoin bubble...
the bitcoin bubble is like 10 times bigger then anything we ever seen b4?
Well the other charts are over much longer time periods. omg its even better... so bitcoin has gone up 10 times higher( % wise ) than any of these stocks, and it did this in a fraction of the time. has there ever been a stock that has bubbled up as fast and furious as bitcoin has? why does the bitcoin behave this way? I would say bitcoin behaves a bit like a tech stock pre-ipo. Those three founders working out of a garage might revolutionize the world. Or not. |

Forced liquidations incoming? Is there any problem in executing them due to Gox lag?

History of "Loan Trades" would be pretty cool. As of now, I can only see an orderbook.

This was cult-like behavior: rather than believing someone who was bearish had analyzed the data and come to a different conclusion, and that perhaps you could learn from this person, the bear took on a moral quality. He was a bad guy. One might even say he was evil. He's probably motivated purely by nefarious intent. If he got enough people to disbelieve, those people would convince their friends, and the whole thing would snowball. We saw this effect on these very forums during the last mania. Bears were called trolls and silenced. The sentiment now is not like that. There is much greed, yes, but there is also much fear. Greed might be stronger, but not much so. |

I also noticed this. Another bearish sign: the traders at bitstamp are not buying this rally anymore.
My interpretation is rather: Things are changing so fast that it is hard for everyone to keep up with the price movements on every exchange. That people don't mind paying a 10% premium or w/e, indicates an extremely irrational market. Mid term bearish but not bearish for as short term as "the traders at bitstamp are not buying this rally anymore." would indicate. |

Lent at 760% yearly for 8 days. I sure hope I will not have to regret this.

I would recommend a paper wallet together with an "k out of n" code. Such a code means that you make n papers, and to decrypt, you need to have at least k of them (any k of them). This means that a thief can not get your money by stealing one paper, and also that you will not lose your money if you lose one paper.
This can probably not be done automatically at the moment though.

What if someone were to put illegal information into the blockchain itself? Top secret information or magnet links for example.

http://m.apnews.com/ap/db_268773/contentdetail.htm?contentguid=KW1IM42E"BROWNSVILLE, Texas (AP) - When a regional manager for the Mexican Gulf cartel moved his operation to a more lucrative territory on the border, he took along not only his armored trucks and personal army, but also his department heads and a team of accountants. In the grotesque violence that has enveloped Mexico it's easy to lose sight of the fact that, ultimately, these criminal organizations are complex businesses that rely on careful accounting as much as assault rifles. The structures underlying the most successful criminal organizations are stable in a way that means capturing or killing the man at the top may only be a temporary setback and pinching one revenue stream will only drive a search for others.
