You would rather say "Tyler and me".


The domain is registered at the Scamhost "GoDaddy" with the email "geminiholdingsllc@gmail.com" LoL. (https://who.godaddy.com/whoisstd.aspx?domain=gemini.com&prog_id=GoDaddy)

A quick search for "Gemini IP, LLC" gives multiple results on google from 2013 and before in different states like Wisconsin and Texas LoL.

They don't have an impress on their site.

if they do not fuck it up it is quite big news.

one of the most legimate critiques on bitcoin is the bottleneck problem, e.g. the point where the system interoperates with the fiat world.

this was up to this point valid, because you had to trust exchanges, which were run at best in a grey area of jurisdiction. these exchanges were almost solely responsible for the external price determination of bitcoin.

if they manage to reduce this problem they really strengthen the ecosystem of bitcoin.

The ETF is a totally fresh beast that'll need to convince lots of powerful people yet. An exchange would be a piece of piss to set up and operate in comparison.

Dead on man.  Especially being a well funded New York exchange.

Let's hope they have lock down security.

Wow good news!  Bitcoin is coming from the seedy shady back alley underground currency to the mainstream, high profile tradeable by institutions currency!

I love it.  Every little bit helps.  Good job by the Winklevii in bringing Bitcoin to the masses, rather than the niche techie market.

NASA had

 Gemini --> Apollo --> Moon

Just remember that there were a bunch of rockets that blew up a few deaths along the way.
