HUGE spike in volume out of China over the past few hours. Even more than 2-3 weeks ago. Anyone know why?

One can never be certain , but reading up on some yesterday's news from coindesk might be one of them http://www.coindesk.com/visa-europe-remittances-bitcoin-blockchain/
On top of that; the recent run to ~500$ still didn't dissipate, and it's possible that price didn't "found bottom" at 310-320, but rather how that was result of oversell..

Here we go for another ride Smiley  I hope..

Maybe the run to $500 was just a little test, and the test passed, now it's time for the real deal?

LOL!

Bitcoin gets a $10 rise from the depths of a horrendous correction, and that is it, $10K Bitcoin by 2016!

Bitfinex victims. DO NOT TOUCH THE BFX TOKEN! Start moving it around, or trading it, and you will be construed as having accepted it as an alternative means of payment to your USD, BTC, etc.

I guess anything is possible. If bitcoin went from 200 to 1200 back then in such a short time, there's a good hope that it will do it again, and even go way beyond - it's just a matter of time.
When i saw 2000 on gemini (still not knowing it was an error, sort of) i was surprisingly indifferent about it, like it was not such a big deal..
Guess there's a lot of people that feel the same way, that expect price rise by multiple folds, and not just doubling of the price.

Could of been just a test for this okcoin brush in.
It was about 5 hours long so there definitely something happening and usually the Chinese is the cause of these spikes.

How are you measuring volume 'out of' China?
If you are talking about volume at Chinese exchanges, these are unreliable because of the 0% transaction fee. It is very easy to fudge volume data.

Likely some variance that averages out over the long term
There is also the possibility some trading bot was trying to execute a strategy of sorts, volume is somewhat artificial at 0% after all.

Guess that is the effect of bitcoin nowadays. You stop thinking about the fiat value too much and think about how much bitcoin you have or still want to have.

Let's hope this is the start of a nice end of November run. People are getting their end year bonusses sometimes already, so this may help in boosting buy pressure.

Seems like we are going for a ride Smiley

Check out the 1 day candles chart there at www.okcoin.cn/market.do ...
The last 2 days volume have been higher than any days during the $500 pump, setting new exchange record volume there.
That is the highest volume BTC-fiat exchange in existance and has been for a while BTW..

Of course it is some kind of trading bot trading its own coins back and forth.
No way is there so much 'real' volume with such low price movements.

Customer's bots are free to do what they like on the Chinese exchanges without fees. The other Chinese exchanges will charge customer's bots to fake the volume, but the exchanges own bots can do what they like for free. Gox charged fees but ran its own fake volume bots and any other unregulated exchange can do the same.
