We are moving up pretty rapidly. Not saying this is the rocket, but the up moves have been very strong.

At the same time, it's getting harder and harder to buy coins. Gox, CampBX, now Tradehill. What's going on? Just when I need the coins, I can't get them. Is there a conspiracy of some kind?

Discuss.

Campbx is having problems? I wasn't aware... then again I don't use money orders.

Dwolla stopped processing coin related payments. Yes, I can still do the money orders with BX.

whew... good thing I withdrew everything 2 days ago via Dwolla

I guess to really add to the discussion:
It sounds like US gov't is starting to crack down on these exchanges for not following proper procedure. Well, more like they're trying to squeeze the money transmitters to the exchange.
Now you'll see the evolved exchanges emerge - exchanges that follow US money transmitting laws and such. Which means, all BTC transactions originating in the US will be monitored.

there will always be ways of getting coins without being "monitored" or traced. not that possessing them is illegal anyways.

Speaking of which. What's a good way of moving money from a US bank account to bitstamp? I am confused. I don't have international wire.

Huh? i thought dwolla still processed payments from a fincen registered exchange like CampBX, but DID stop processing non-exchange transactions (i.e., person to person, not registered w fincen).

*edit*

Yup, you are an idiot. Dwolla is shown on the CampBX homepage, indicating they still work together. I'm seeing recent BX facebook posts implying dwolla still works too. Check: https://campbx.com/dwolla.php

My guess is your dwolla account got suspended because you were doing person to person transactions. Maybe via localbitcoins?

good thing that law applies to gold and certificates and not bitcoin. besides the genius of bitcoin is that its so easy to hide; the govt would never know who was hoarding.

as long as the arbitrage opportunity exists, the fiat will not dry up.

It requires zero timing. It is inevitable. There almost no new money flowing into the exchanges, not nearly at the rate it is leaving.

This is what I was wondering about. Search trends look like there is no new interest in bitcoin; a price spike may change that. But the atmosphere and volume over the past couple months hasn't felt like there is much of any new blood, which makes me think there is little basis for sustaining the recent uptrend.

Nothing rises forever. Its about getting out in time and buy back at lower prices. The only risk is Gox seizing up with my cash/coins inside.
