ok, but that is very loosely related to the topic of this thread.
Big money?

I hope these will cause nice price rises with BTC when they come to fruition.

So much money has already gone into various companies in the Bitcoin ecosystem. It's only a matter of time until more funding money goes into buying Bitcoins directly.

Wall street big money, this have been mentioned for thousands times, but seems they never come with their big money and big pump to market. Anyway I'm glad we back to $260 today.

I feel like sophisticated finance is not the type to accumulate like every day people. I imagine some sort of crazy math refined by stress testing rakes up all the money from normal speculators, no matter which direction they want to go.  We know they're definitely in Bitcoin. Why would you rather pump up the price making everyone rich when you could keep more of the fiat influx to yourself setting up trading ranges you can more or less control i.e. profit in both directions? But maybe I'm too paranoid.

Well, the best move - in case you want to be in the game - would be to enter and play according to their strategy and don't be influenced by them in any way. Buy and hold, no matter what, could be a suitable strategy

buy and hold strategy usually doesn't work well in rigged markets - see last 4 years in gold for example.

I think the crypto scene has become quite the enticing investment right about now. With wallet providers being insured and exchanges seeming to be proactive about their security I see no reason why anyone wouldn't invest. Hoping for good times ahead!

Being on WSJ is not really a big deal.

Its when outlets like CNN have a actual long articles and making their marketing to make bitcoin a good thing, is when I start eyeing in on things.

CNN`s reader base is probably x10 more larger then is for WSJ and I only say this from experience. 2 years ago, I heard of bitcoin only because of a CNN article wrote some great about it.

Then after that, I dug around and fell upon this forum.

You picked a good year to start, hopefully this year will be as good or better than 2013.

Here comes the big money:
The bears in this thread are obviously frightened, knowing that the Bitcoin economy and investments are growing at a fast pace.
Doom and gloom is not needed when a huge party is getting underway!
