Headline: "The French bitcoin revolution: BNP Paribas testing crypto on its currency funds" Columnist's interpretation: France's biggest bank BNP Paribas is looking at ways bitcoin could be incorporated into one its currency funds, according to a source at the bank.
Actual statement by the "source at the bank": A spokeswoman for BNP Paribas said: "We are looking at blockchain technology and how it can be applied to post trade processes to make things faster and potentially cheaper but it's all very much projects and it's all in testing. It's nothing live."
"Blockchain technology" is not bitcoin, and does not have to be bitcoin's blockchain, or any cryptocurrency blockchain. I don't know what "post trade processes" mean, but it is definitely not trading bitcoin... Lol, at last someone with brains... It is the same poem again and again - they invest in BLOCKCHAIN and not Bitcoin, get over it people.

I think it´s china burst also. And the feeling that $ burst is closer now. This october could be disastrous for the global and work wonders for BTC.
If Im correct, this could be only the very beginning
Some of us have anticipated this for years. The new world order is not corporate globalization or global government. It's global decentralized peer-to-peer consensus. The dinosaurs stuck in the last millennium will sink into the tar pits. Jimbo, could you please elaborate more about your comment and about this point as well This october could be disastrous for the global Thank you

Don't you think Brian Armstrong has a conflict of interest and might make biased predictions considering he is Coinbase CEO and co-founder? There is no chance he will say anything detrimental about Bitcoin because his company relies on it to make profits. You don't bite the hand that feeds you.

there is nothing to stop them from "inflating" bitcoins.. maybe if they gold standard it.. that still does not solve the problem of "dumb people" losing their bitcoins. and there are other problems that need resolved.. and it is very doubtful we have enough time left to get everything ready for it .. attempting to come up with a way to keep using the 'interest to infinity' debt slavery system by pretending one persons debt is another persons profit .. or that debt is money is the FAIL TRAIN!

Did you bother reading the article? I can't find any explanation or arguments from which his theory of "BTC cannot become reserve currency" can be derived Troll Swanson trolling as usual

I see, we're dealing with a serious lack of foresight here. Gvt of the world will not willingly convert to BTC. They will do it because their economy will eventually crumble and BTC will be the only safe asset left. Here, some reading for you: http://nakamotoinstitute.org/mempool/speculative-attack/

We are "lucky" because we can watch the whole chart of the past. We(the new and current newbies) can learn from the mistakes of others. I learned it in a very conservative way. I was just reading old threads from the year 2011 and 2012. If you would erase the time stamp and the price numbers in these posts, you would think they are talking about the present price actions. This is also a great thread to get a summarization of the mistakes made in the past: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=163258.0

Looks like Bitcoin did have a very small move up today, although I am not sure what caused it. I didn't expect to see a change in price today, mainly because it has been stable these last few days. It is a pleasant surprise to see that the price rose by $10 though.

Well good morning Bitcoinland.
Still over $280 I see. I think we can safely say we've left the $260s behind.
I won't declare the battle for $280 won until we hit $300 again.
It'd be nice to put that silly Wile E ledge GIF to rest though.
