Has anyone noticed how strangely these options are written on the BTC-TC exchange? For example, ASICMINER PT call # 214 is listed below-the-money + is expiring in five hours yet it still has a .105 BTC premium??? Who in there right mind would pay that premium/buy that and did whoever write it even know how to write options??? And the only ASICMINER PT put listed is a 60 strike (waaaaay out of the money) and the premium per share is .231 BTC??? Most of these options make absolutely no sense... Has anyone else noticed this?

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Probably people who don't know what are option and how they are used and are just playing with them. Or seller hoping that people who don't know what option are buy some of them for easy money
