Auction Count Snapshot
Worldwide from Dropdown on top right 26,902
Manual Count of Countries/Unions (except Worldwide) on top right 12,687 (sum of below)
5,037 US 3,075 EU 284 EU (why twice?) 462 Denmark 781 China 600 Canada 875 Germany 516 Spain 43 Russia 1,014 UK
Manual Count of categories on Left 12,271 (Sum of # on bottom)
12,271 ~ 12,687 o.k.
so where are the other 14,000 Listings? Is the Worldwide number a mistake? Or are there 14,000 listings from "non-member" countries?
category count 19 115 151 322 549 70 1020 527 1457 1140 770 30 199 136 479 41 372 513 1232 559 126 1559 281 13 258 175 13 145

"Live auctions will use blockchain escrow. On-chain escrow will enable refunds (i.e. release of escrow) without fees. The stroke of genius is that since the money is not held by the merchant or platform, but rather by the blockchain itself, this reduces if not eliminates fiduciary risk and likely the regulatory compliance requirements (e.g. money transmitter licenses) for facilitating escrow transactions.

How do you feel being exactly 1 year ahead of the curve on this one? Re: Van Eck Proposal Above see Winklevoss Bitcoin ETF May Not be Redeemable in Bitcoins for Individual Investors
Although it doesn’t appear that ETFs are convertible into the underlying asset at the individual investor level, there are ETFs that are trying to let investors do just that. Van Eck is one of those companies. Kitco Metals Reports in “Proposed Van Eck Gold, Silver ETFs Would Allow Redemptions Of Metal” that:
"Several analysts told Kitco News that it appears the main factor differentiating this planned product from the majority of the existing ETFs in North America is the ability of investors to get their hands on physical gold or silver whenever they choose to exit, although they could also cash out." http://letstalkbitcoin.com/post/55120007013/winklevoss-bitcoin-etf-may-not-be-redeemable-in

"I don't know why it deserved an article."
Did you read the article?
Or did you read the title of the article?

but the AP would have to buy at least a 50,000 block from the trust.
Then the AP would have a separate deal with retail investor(s) - --- an added value service -- separate from the trust..
this is what the article is saying.
The burden would be on the AP if they want it---if they can find profit in that type of premium svc

@retep
how do you think Van Eck is going to do it as stated in the article?
The article proposes that the Authorized Participant could facilitate this (not the Trust)--- do you think that would be possible?

Largest patent suit in India's IT and telecom space goes to??? ...Drumroll... http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2013-03-26/news/38040592_1_micromax-patent-infringement-standards-essential-patents
---Warning Spoilers Below--- "They also point out that the litigation was not unique to Micromax as Ericsson had recently filed a similar suit against South Korea's Samsung for failure to license 'standards-essential' patents. Executives close to Micromax claimed that Ericsson, which is no longer a player in the handset space after it exited its JV with Japan's Sony, was now trying to extort what they termed "irrational and inequitable licence fees"."
