it seems to be a US nubits Transparent
Tether currency is 100% backed by actual assets in our reserve account and can be viewed and verified in real-time.
might be really interesting  Well it reintroduces the trusted third party, the elimination of which was the main innovation of Bitcoin. How it can be 100% transparent is something I'll have to look into more carefully before I can comment on. Ditto. https://wallet.tether.to/request_inviteApplied for beta access. |

Doesn't that make you a bitcoiner?
No more than using soap makes me a Soaper. Now, if I climbed on a soap box and spoke in tongues about soap being the answer to all of mankind's problems, THEN I'd be a Soaper.  |

This type of thing (I'm sure there will be other services similar to tether) will be a game changer -- IF the entities backing the funds prove trustworthy. |

Now if these "tethers" are on transparent "blockchain" and i can hold a multisig private key, that would make an audit a no brainer. They literally just have to show that they bank account holds the outstanding amount of tethers. Which is leaps and bounds above current audit options |

it's hard to say if it's bullish or bearish...a lot of if's and depend's
could be russia related or something to do with the recent dumps also something completely different...maybe nothing

So, is this at least partially why BTC has been crashing? How bad is this? Has it been priced in already? Good news: Ripple died.  |

this market is unpredictable (to me) anyway
all my data said retest of bottom or lower...now it looks like we will go high soon...
bears are not posting atm...which they usually dont if we go up...i guess it depended on the attempt to break 200 significantly again (which failed)
i dont know
but the karpeles "news" are really funny...

Maybe true in some sense... Even some Economist, I mean Finance Professor Mark Williams too claimed that BTC will crash to $10 by Mid-2014, but it was all hoax and instead, BTC recovered instead of crashing during that month... |
