Another freak transaction on Huobi: a small trade at 3799 CNY at 13:08:11 UTC, at a time when the spread was around 3729. A bug? An internal manual fix?

why sell at 0.036 when you can wait a few mins for 0.037?

any reason why ltc responded to the opening on huobi by tanking? now i wonder what an opening on gox would've been like - worse?
What did you expected really? Huobi was just excuse for pump, Chinese could buy LTC all the time before it was added to Huobi.

LTC trading on Huobi may have made a difference if the fees and other facilities are different from those of other exchanges, or if they have lazy/loyal customers who would trade LTC but not on a different exchange. I understood (through Google translate) that Huobi had some special one-time offer to encourage LTC trading. Does anyone know for sure? (The bitcoin press, like Coindesk, should have thoroughly analyzed those details beforehand for their readers. But they barely acknowledge that China exists...)

Rather than functioning like money, bitcoins display the characteristics of commodities – that is, users attach value to them, not issuers or central banks.
Thanks Danish central bank! I'd like my money to be valued decentralized instead of centralized e.g. by a central bank or "issuer" (in fact I'd like there to be no specific issuer at all thank you very much).

Hmm... They forget that gold had been used as money without any specific issuer. There were gold coins printed by this and that city state, but that was the function of ensuring that the gold pieces were not fake alloys. No one central authority said how much a gold piece was to be worth. In digital world this function is taken over by cryptographic signing.

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-03-17/fortress-linked-pantera-said-to-invest-in-top-bitcoin-exchange.htmlhttp://finance.fortune.cnn.com/2014/03/18/bitcoin-hedge-fund/You know, this will take some time before it will influence price. It's not the bullish equivalent to a flash crash event... what I mean is, I'm not expecting price to turn around 180 degree tomorrow. But this combination of solid 'old' money chasing the new one, not just the size of the Pantera/Fortress fund at registration, but also that little nugget about Bitstamp, makes me pretty confident that those scenarios we discuss here once in a while, like yesterday, those that paint the picture of a painfully drawn-out bear market that can last several more months to a year (you know the people who see it like that, Mat, or Lucif) simply are not a realistic option anymore.

hahahaha, how stupid can they be? The Danish central bank just gave the best reason why you should use bitcoin instead of fiat. What a bunch of idiots.
