Is it backed by the people behind KNC, and are they trust-able? I know there are complaints about mining companies and some of them (like butterfly labs) have pulled massive scams. Who pays the bill if anything goes wrong, is it KNC or an insurance company?
From investopedia - "One factor that affects the ETN's value is the credit rating of the issuer. The value of the ETN may drop despite no change in the underlying index, instead due to a downgrade in the issuer's credit rating."

The GDP of Sweden is ~0.9% of the world's economy. What's more, they are going to drop their peg to the Euro when Greece defaults and the Kron is going to skyrocket in value. Why would Swedes want our deflationary currency when they are going to have their own soon?
Sweden has a negative interest rate now. But the important thing is who are represented on Nasdaq Stockholm. It's not the average sweede. Sounds like that's what you think... Sweden is at the zero bound because they are trying (and failing) to fight deflation. I don't think the average Swede or even most of the elites realize the Euro peg is untenable. So when the krona spikes, BTC will appear to go down in price, which will either make it appear cheaper and therefor more attractive or diving in value and therefor radioactive. What is crazy is that they have negative interest rates in the middle of a housing bubble. Sweden is going to be an economic basket case. That may actually be good for bitcoin, but it's far from certain.

FDIC insured usd deposits I would like to see officials from Coinbase, Circle, and ItBit state CLEARLY that EACH individual customer account is protected by FDIC insurance up to $250'000 FOR EACH CUSTOMER, against ANY SCREW-UP BY THE COMPANY. Reading Coinbase's FAQ, I concluded that it was only COINBASE'S account at their bank (where they keep their clients' USD balances) that was insured by the FDIC AGAINST FAILURE OF THE BANK, for 250'000 TOTAL. The news that I read about Circle and ItBit (including that law prof's article) are compatible with this less exciting (but far more likely) interpretation.

8 hours and 20 minutes until Nasdaq Stockholm starts trading. Going to bed now. This could get exciting!
