"Old" bitcoin vs newcomers (Second market)

[Biodom]

From insolvency statement it is clear that Second Market CEO did not sign the doc, so in my opinion there will be a battle for bitcoin future between technocrats and financial types.

In one corner:
Coinbase
Kraken
Bistamp
BTC China
Blockchain.info
Circle

In another:
Second Market/BIT
and (possibly) Winklevii/Winkdex/winETF

I would certainly root for group#1 because Barry and his crew is same ol', same ol' financials (talk about banks doing an "exchange")

Will 445 low hold? I doubt it.

I root for group 2, and I would add circle and coinbase to them. Time to move on and have professionals take over. Assets worth half a billion dollar have been lost because this change hasn't taken place while Bitcoin's valuation rose too rapidly.
