ETA for the ETF? (and Gemini Exchange speculation)

[Fabrizio89]

Someone said they bought from Mt.Gox and never paid them

yeah ,they did a deal with Karpeles

he sold a ton of Bitcoin off exchange to all sorts

no wonder the books didn't add up

Any decent amount of institutional money that comes into the game when the ETF starts will push the price higher.

Could be kind of bullish, I've had a look at it, only 2 pics on it so far, hasn't got many followers.
I decided not to follow it, anonymity & all that.
I'm hopeful they'll announce it's been approved/regulated soon, we could really do with the price getting a kick up the arse to get it moving upwards again.
To the moon my friends

New post on Friday:

Celebrating National [donut] Day

 




Why post this? Could this have a hidden meaning -- a donut is also a symbol for zero. If Friday was day zero then Gemini could launch tomorrow.

don't expect something great on the summer, usually stuff like this are launched at september/october, in the autumn, when everyone is done with their vacation

the summer will remain a hot place for stagnation

i hope this new exchange will not just bring a momentary bubble that then will fall again to the current price, or we are doing nothing

btw this will be an exchange like bitstamp, or there are some new features into it?

I assume it will be fully insured against hacks, but I don't know for sure. If it's going to be linked to the ETF in the future it's unlikely they will launch it without insurance.

Them be some fancy donuts!
I agree I think it could be a hidden message, no purpose on posting this unless Tyler or Cameron accidentally thought they were logged in on their personal account and wanted to post a picture of the gourmet donuts they were being served. I'm thinking it's a sign... 4 days until launch? THey posted it on the 5th so that would mean they are launching Wednesday the 9th. They could also explain the mini pump we saw today, for those that have inside info.

Either that or they are projecting 4 0s - donuts on the end of the price w/ that post (aka $2300) soon after their operations get up and running.

ETF certainly have a large impact on the markets ( and inevitable large increase in price) renewed interest in bitcoin is that I'm seeing

I still think Gemini may be bigger than expected, there's a lot of people worried with the exchanges we got until now.. then again, I don't leave my bitcoins on exchanges. I have a wallet on my phone for pocket money, and a paper cold storage wallet. As the saying goes, "if you don't have the keys, you don't own the bitcoins".

Well they said today on the live stream that Gemini is only "weeks" away and that they are on the two yard line. So the launch of Gemini appears to be coming very soon. When they were asked about the ETF they said that they can't speak about it per SEC rules. This is all good news IMO.

I think they were speaking in vague terms with an example thrown in. Compared to how long they have been setting it up (~2 years), what's another 3-4 months? It is 2 yard line, but only relative to how long real money plays its game (in months and years, not days or hours). Gemini in other words can happen within a month, or in 3-4 months during fall.

Let me remind you they did not set a specific date for gemini launch (even though they previously stated no later than march 2015, which have not come to pass).


SEC and FINCEN have still yet to finish dealing with the twins regarding regulations, and if/when they receive the greenlight, they still have to figure out on THEIR end how they have completely complied with the regulations, etc etc all the details.


All I am saying is, months will still have to pass before gemini is realized. Even then, gemini is still one more regulated exchange along with coinbase, itbit, etc. The real kicker is the ETF, and they have more or less said no eft before gemini, and possibly LONG after since it is much more complicated process.


Take it easy, nothing new was revealed. Same place, same as always.

The ETF is the game changer I agree. But I disagree regarding Gemini. I think Gemini will be bigger than any of the other "regulated exchanged", and that includes the ones that think they are legit, but are not "coinbase". I wouldn't be surprised if we see Gemini launch before the end of June.

My take is, don't be surprised if it is put off until fall of 2015. They were specific about gemini launching by late march 2015 at the latest and that did not come to pass, so I am not holding my breath and playing it safe.

Referring to the OP - ETA for Gemini opening, I'm not sure, it's like the Bitlicense, these things seem to drag on forever. I'm hoping it's announced by the end of 2015.
Is that too much to hope for, I hope not.
I have high hopes that Gemini will do positive things for the price of bitcoin, we're desperate for something to push us in the right direction.

Didnt see the live stream yesterday did anyone manage to record it? reports indicate they didnt talk about the ETF hmmm and more about rowing and other general stuff lol
