The Biggest Bitcoin Arbitrage Ever?

Do you remember when you were growing up and all your friends were allowed Atari game consoles but you weren’t?

Well, I do and the things seemed as foreign to me as Venus. Mostly because the little time I managed to spend on the gaming consoles when my friends weren’t hogging them I found it all a bit silly. I never “got” computer games, and to this day still have poor comprehension of things like Angry Birds.

Lightning and Thunder: Mats Jerratsch of Blockchain Gives His Forecast

A common challenge associated with forwarding a few bitcoins from one wallet to another is the often slow pace at which it occurs. At times, upward of 10 to 15 minutes or more might pass before the transaction is fully executed and confirmed on the blockchain.

What’s behind this delay? In short, the blockchains’ server ecosystems share the same transaction records. So whenever a few bitcoins are sent, all of the blockchain nodes jump into action, facilitating the transaction so the debit of bitcoins from the originating wallet now appears in the destination wallet.

Wall Street Journal Highlights Interest in Bitcoin Investments Over Gold

Wall Street Journal Highlights Interest in Bitcoin Investments Over Gold

​The mainstream media is generally pretty quick to promote a negative view of Bitcoin and its perceived value at any opportunity. One of the more balanced and neutral media outlets overall has been the New York Times, which has its own BitBeat section for Bitcoin news and Paul Vigna providing a balanced commentary. Over the weekend, the Times has seen enough recent demand in Bitcoin information to compare its relative investment value to the gold standard.

I’m ditching traditional banks in favor of bitcoin—and you can, too

I’ve been interested in bitcoin (BTC) as a concept since its inception. Until recently, however, I considered bitcoin more of a cryptographic experiment than something that could affect my daily life.

pretty badass - but i know some people here already doing this. clap!

Thx for the kind words

last time the BTC price went from 8 to 13 USD (roughly) before the event and 4 months later it was at 260 USD. not bad.

that is the bottom. 

A Venture Fund With Plenty of Virtual Capital, but No Capitalist

Olivier Stern, a 31-year-old French socialist with an appetite for risk, recently invested a third of his life savings — 10,000 euros, about $11,000 — in a cryptocurrency start-up that has no legal standing and runs head-on into regulatory obstacles, yet might very well upend the mysterious world of virtual investing.

a VC Fund with no leader and a bunch of amateurs - what could possibly go wrong?

LiteCoinGuy predicts 1000 USD in 2017  

or 2020 - after the halving is before the halving 

Maybe when Theymos finished his multi million dollar forum 2.0 in the year 2045
