The situation in crypto now is that good news and great features usually don't affect the price. Pegging and real trades, working market that is what we need.
I've been trying to say for weeks now, if you think pegging can and will work, then why would you want a price rise? There is no way any whale is going to allow the price to rise when they can accumulate what could be a fortune in the near future.
Why fret over 50 satoshi Bays if you think $1 is on the horizon? It's worth throwing down 1 btc worth and just cold storing it for 6 months, i'd not worry about it. If the pegging doesn't work it you're out $250 bucks, if it does you're a millionaire, pretty good lottery ticket in my book.
