Wow!!!!!!!! If that's true, then that is surely a small number of bids. 27 bids for 20 lots? I may have to revise my thinking based on that news if it were true. yes but maybe someones 1 bid was for 10 blocks @390 bids vs bidders? I would assume 27 bidders = open to bid on all blocks.. still a decent amount of action to compete with if so. Yeah.... TOO much mystery here... 27 bidders is very bullish however 27 bids would be very bearish. the wall street journal was the first to publish 27 bids Financial times reuters says Sarah McBride was the original source. http://blogs.reuters.com/sarah-mcbride/http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/12/04/us-bitcoin-auction-idUSKCN0JI1FB20141204Someone tweet her Just in case it's bullish, got a link for billyjoejeanisnotmyson mcdonalds.com/careers |

11 registered bidders - that sounds low... anyone know how many there were last time? Significantly more IIRC .. I think there were about 10 names on the leaked partial list EDIT : Seems pretty clear nobody here knows if it is 1 bid can be for multiple blocks lol  27 bids for 20 blocks? less than 2 bids/block? After what happened at the last auction, I can't imagine they would be for anywhere close to market price. |

After what happened at the last auction, I can't imagine they would be for anywhere close to market price. I agree We know that at least 3 of those 11 bidders are syndicates, and it makes zero sense to join a syndicate to bid for a block of 2 or 3k coins above market as you can easily buy them on exchange in that quantity. So that leaves 8 potential serious bidders. |

Why do people believe that bids were around USD 400 ? these are blocks of 2 and 3 k. if I were to buy one block I would rather look for a discounted bid of at least 5 percent, otherwise i could buy them on exchange. in addition if i knew that there are only 11 bidders, which implies a low demand i would add another 5 percent...

One bid could take them all... Bidders must register to participate in a designated Series. Bidders may register to participate in more than one Series, but must provide the required deposit for each Series (i.e. the deposit requirement aggregates depending on the number of Series selected).
As with the last auction, one registration allows you to bid on multiple blocks for the same price, but does not allow you submit multiple bids at varying prices. If you wish to have the ability to bid multiple prices on multiple blocks within the same Series, you will need to submit another registration form and additional deposit. The following examples are provided for your convenience:
Example 1: A bid to purchase three (3) blocks of Series A for the same per bitcoin price (e.g. $X per bitcoin for 6,000 Series A bitcoins) requires ONE registration form for Series A with a $100,000 deposit. Use ONE Bid Form to bid for ALL THREE Series A blocks.
Example 2: A bid to purchase three (3) blocks of Series A for the same per bitcoin price (e.g. $X per bitcoin for 6,000 Series A bitcoins), and two (2) blocks of Series B for the same per bitcoin price (e.g. $Y per bitcoin for 6,000 Series B bitcoins) requires ONE registration form for BOTH Series A and B with a $250,000 deposit ($100,000 for Series A plus $150,000 for Series B). Use ONE Bid Form to bid for Series A AND Series B blocks. Note that the per-bitcoin price for Series A does not need to match the Series B per-bitcoin price.
Example 3: Three (3) separate bids to purchase blocks of Series A at different prices (e.g. $X per bitcoin for 2,000 bitcoins, $Y per bitcoin for 2,000 bitcoins, and $Z per bitcoin for 2,000 bitcoins) requires THREE separate registration forms (EACH selecting Series A), and a $300,000 deposit ($100,000 for EACH registration). Use THREE Bid Forms, ONE FOR EACH Series A block. Note that each registration also permits a bidder to register for other Series (requiring additional deposits). |
