https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdVVECKKSXoNick Colas interviewed on Bloomberg TV by Sarah Eisen. This is the single best bitcoin media coverage I have seen to date. Every question succinctly knocked out of the park.

That was beautiful. So that's Nicholas Colas from zerohedge.
Also I love Sarah Eisen. She said she'd be back.

Apart from the "no rules" remark: Bitcoin protocol enforces very strict rules on all nodes. If you don't like 'em, you've gotta lump 'em and start your own altcoin fork. |

Yeah, they may be rich, but they can't buy a supersized Coke where they live, so the jokes on them.  |

Agreed, very good interview. Colas gave correct technical answers, while explaining Bitcoin's potential and risks at the same time.

Colas and ConvergEx Group are already in the Wiki article on bitcoin. That was quick.
I note that ConvergEx Group's parent company - Mellon - is listed as controlling 1.4 Trillion in assets.
A high-risk buy signal to Mellon's portfolio holders in the amount of 1/100th of one percent of the existing portfolio would pump 140 million dollars into bitcoin. That's only about a $12/BTC rise in the exchange rate - but assumes that all extant bitcoin were in play. They aren't. If Mellon were going to take a flyer on bitcoin, would they even consider spending that little?
Yikes...

I assume they've already bought some though. Yes, I'm almost sure you're right. Given Colas' knowledge and facility with the complexities of bitcoin, he's probably pitched it many times by now. Guys like that don't pitch shit if there's a chance they'll be turned down... |

That may have just sealed the deal for a lot of investors waiting on the sidelines.
Mon./Tues. should be interesting.
