Woa. Argentinians can now buy BTC easily ?

Thats major news. If im not mistaken they suffer 25% annual inflation. This is a huge market

This is very big new.

Damn that looks professional. Any more info on this company? Size? Funding behind it?

[BitChick]

Thanks for sharing.  It does look very promising.  I agree, too bad it is not being marketed to the US. Perhaps they feel that there is already something servicing US customers and want to broaden the market?  Hopefully they integrate it in the US at some point.  A little competition is not a bad thing and I am annoyed that Mt.Gox has such a huge market share, especially with all the issues it seems to have.  And I am not sure Mt.Gox has the capabilities to handle that much traffic, or the speed of traffic that this site is looking to handle.  So, very exciting for sure!

That looks great. I bet more professional exchanges will follow and the future of exchanges will be better.

Is that 300k commits to non-volatile storage every second?  Considering enterprise SSDs have write IOPS in the tens of thousands, I suppose this would just about be possible.  But it would be good to get confirmation of what durability guarantees their setup actually provides.

As someone considering a move to either Uruguay or Chile this is significant news, thanks!

First time I saw BTCGlobal I was afraid that Nefario is back in business

BTCGlobal looks rather suspect to me. Can't find the companies registered anywhere, the address given isn't a true addy 12959 Elmore Park Rd #8
Bartlett, TN 38134

[oficial site] http://btcglobal.net/ phone number is given +1 718 514 9868 which is voip phone from NY
Google +1 718 514 9868 comes up with this guy http://btcxperts.com/en/profile/steven-morell/2 also http://director-ee.com/profile/morell

It might be legit but if people misrepresent themselves ie. phone, addy then I get suspicious.

[ninjaboon]

watching as I am planning something with them too...

There was recently a relatively large scam (fractionary reserve "exchange" + "investments") that popped in that part of the world. Not surprising another one is coming up, made by the same people or just contenders.

Wouldn't trust it with Kludge's wife's (they personally consider themselves married, but legally, they are individual and thus have rights they'd otherwise forfeit) 401(k).
