1  Economy / Economics / Blockex Digital Asset Exchange Platform - the first wall street grade exchange? on: December 22, 2015, 08:49:48 AM
Can this be the game changer for bitcoin price?



It's a professional HFT exchange for digital assets targeting the really large customers like Hedge funds and governments. It's almost ready for launch, and they want to make some buzz. You can support it and get your name on their dedicated backers thank you page while receiving free trade fees. It's not because they need the money, but because they want to spread the word. So please do.

Here is the support page on startjoin:https://www.startjoin.com/DAXP

An their web page: http://www.blockex.com/about/ - as you can see there are professinal bankers, and John Matonis (Bitcoin foundation leader) on the list of Advisors.

What do you guys think? I think this might prove to be a really, really important development.

Karl Gray is known to have had more than 100 000 bitcoin in the past (maybe he still has), he helped make Litecoin valuable, and he is setting up a $50 million fund for the Start ecosystem. Startcoin is valued at $1.5 million now. Do you see the opportunity?

4  Economy / Speculation / What happens to the price if OPEC starts pricing oil in bitcoins? on: December 27, 2013, 05:29:18 PM
According to Marketwatch http://www.marketwatch.com/story/6-market-surprises-for-2014-2013-12-24 one of the 6 possible surprises for 2014 is bitcoin being used for pricing oil from OPEC. This is probably not very realistic, but who knows. Shall we speculate about the price in such a scenario?  Grin

Opec prices oil in bitcoin

There has been speculation for months about whether bitcoins might be accepted as legal tender by a major developed nation, whether the Chinese will accept them, or whether big web retailers will take then instead of conventional currencies. But the big breakthrough for digital money is more likely to come from the oil cartel, OPEC.

For decades, oil has been priced in dollars but key member states such as Iran, Algeria or Angola are not particularly friendly to the United States, even if they are not quite as hostile as they once were. They have been making noises about switching the price of oil out of the American currency for years, but have never quite managed to agree on alternative.

The euro was a runner for a while, until it started to implode. But what about bitcoins? It is a global currency, with no central bank trashing its value, and it might well prove a better store of value for countries that know their oil won’t last forever. If any single move establishes bitcoin as a serious monetary rival to the dollar, that will be it — and there will be more than a few wry smiles in Tehran over that.
