Its not private.

4% fee though if I remember correctly.

Tbf the ASICMiner angle does have some credibility to it on first glance.

Ah OK, wasn't sure. But 4% seems like a huge markup for a rather large mining operation like ASICMiner. Maybe they're better off solo-mining, then. Do you think they could have made a deal with Discus Fish for lower fees, though?

Yeah for sure, thats why the ASICminer angle has some credibilty, if your bringing petahashes of mining power they wont be charging you as high of a fee.

1% of $100 is better than 4% of $10 (crude example!)

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

What the heck! Can somebody explain like I'm 5 why Stamp is moving the exact opposite direction than China?

It's not moving in the opposite direction, but it's following China. There's a delay and it looks different on a small scale.

It looks totally different! Not like China at all! Bitstamp is bouncing around at $580-$582 and China already took off few meters...

i think most of the arbitrage happens with bitfenix, which is currently lagging but moving in the right direction.

Yeah, being a big pool makes your rate of hitting a block more predictable. Also you gain exposure, which is good. Why do you think people join Discus Fish if it has such a high fee, if there are other pools with lower or even no fee???

Yeah, Finex is at least following China a bit. But I still don't see any significant movement, to be honest... Hasn't Finex stopped arbitraging with Stamp?

Yeah, let the free market do that, I guess. I think it's not that profitable anyways for the regular trader. Guess it's more a gamble than actual arbitrage Cheesy

highly sophisticated systematic gambling, i'm sure they have a few tricks / number crunching to make it less of a gamble and more like scalping volatility across exchanges

So.... gambling? Cheesy Cheesy

In other news: We're going back down again? Huge/Medium dumps on $578? Seems fragile. Is this going to be a quintiple bottom, or will we see $550? Dark times, ahead, I guess...

Why haven't we burned more longs on leverage on Finex? The credit bubble there didn't seem to care at all about the crash the other day! Why is the market so stable?

the crash might of been a few long closing

but at the same time people are opening new longs...

the " credit bubble " isn't going anywhere. it will only get bigger, much bigger.

So you're saying that it isn't a problem? Could it become a problem when there's a really big crash cascading down the longs? Or some other incident?

Nooo, don't be so pessimistic! I know, it doesn't look as awesome as it did yesterday, when the price rebounded to $590, but it's still too early to call this bubbly bubble off! Sad

a long squeeze is an excellent time to place a long.

ironic?

also the ridiculous ROI poeple have reported for just lending USD on finex, seems to indicate that the "credit bubble" has much room to grow.

Do you think that all that FIAT money that is 'parked' in Finex is good for the price of Bitcoin, since it is effectively being used to buy more bitcoin, or is it bad for the price. I'm trying to figure out the exact workinga and implications here Smiley
