Hmm he had 20 stolen coins and knew nothing about BTC... my guess is they weren't a gift but he likely paid for them at a huge discount through a dark web site??

Never thought I'd say this about a giant dildo in the shape of a pickle... I LIkE IT!

You don't have to store the private key on your server if you use blockchain's API. Of course you'll need to provide your blockchain wallet ID and password, but you can just store a limited amount on blockchain and keep your "real" bitcoin balance in cold storage. Then just transfer from cold storage to your hot wallet on blockchain API when needed.

Tea cup handle pattern on the 6H chart?

Bullish 

Lambchop reminding me of my old apple II games

That meme looks like my blow-up doll...

Yea that's pretty darn bullish for mainstream media news article

"The arrival of institutional investors in digital currencies is a big bang event. If you have doubted the viability of digital currencies, today may be a good day to re-evaluate this emerging asset class."

Great thread! Sell sell sell.... sell into my buy orders

If enough new money starts coming in from this media blast about "the first bitcoin exchange" then we we could possibly see a new ATH in February. That's the optimistic part of me.

If I have BTC why do I care if "they" have my fiat?

For the total illitterate newb, I suggest you check out my Building Bitcoin Websites tutorials.  I go step by step and explain each thing I do. I'm not a master coder by any means but I created these since none existed.  When I started with bitcion websites I wished there was some instruction but I couldn't find any so I created these.

The UI looks nice IMO. At the end of my video you can see the interface. It's a gun metal gray, has buy/sell on the left margin. The center is the order book. The right margin has a line chart. I only saw BTC/USD as an option, I did not notice any other currency pairs.

Thanks for the info, I'll try Snagit. I'm not super pleased w/ CamStudio, freezes a lot... CamStudio was the only free one I could find that didn't try to install malware during install.

You can watch what happened here.  The rocket did a little twirly thing and a button popped up to go to the moon. You click and go to the new exchange. The market reacted poorly and fell. Glance at the exchange UI.

It also says no purchase necessary subject to official rules.  Also randomly accepting implies that for random orders this "form of payment" will be accepted and others it will not.  It's going to be something stupid like "1 smile" is your payment.

Too soon for moon and rocket photos from a TA perspective. We're still at that long term downtrend resistance line. We've barely broken it, if we can hold this price for a while or even keep rising then it should be clear the bear season is over.

Wow can't believe someone posted Leftover Crack. I haven't heard them in 15 years. Had their vinyl, I remember "Rock the 40oz" was an awesome song.  

Yup looks like others are doing the same. Price is stagnating while longs take their profit. All we've been seeing is current traders trading and taking leverage, the real pump will be when the new money starts coming in which should happen after this coinbase announcement goes mainstream. This week should be very interesting

Look at all those shorters jumping ship. 4k in one hour. Muwahaha!!
