I really don't understand this thing wi th Trump.
I watched the show now and was good to watch him saying we will give power to people, when he say we not only transfer power from one president to another but today we transfer power to you to people.

What is the relation of BTC and Trump compare to price??

Also please have a look on that about ETF
http://www.coindesk.com/ex-gemini-lawyer-sec-unlikely-to-approve-winklevoss-bitcoin-etf/

All people here in the forum spoke about a YES on ETF but the news look different..

Maybe is the same how news spoke about Trump before elections and after the result was different? who knows...

None of the commentators to that story agree with it. In this one the commentator asks why Mr. Castillo is an "EX"-Gemini lawyer, and suggests that's the reason he's saying Gemini won't get approved.

First the article quotes him as saying, "It seems unlikely, among all the other reasons, that the commission is going to want to move forward with a product where the major trading is done on an exchanges that may not be following our AML guidelines."

Yet almost immediately after, the article goes on to acknowledge that China is, in fact, making efforts to implement AML practices:
"That, coupled with the China governments recent crackdown on cryptocurrency exchanges and anti-money laundering practices, makes for an even less likely approval, he said."
Yet in the second comment, the Chinese crackdown is evidence of somehow dissuading the commission from approval. What?
I would be interested in knowing why Mr. Castillo is an "EX"-Gemini lawyer and if he has any ulterior motives to insinuate that Gemini does not get approval.

These are all good points including the ones made by Dan.

From the start, I was a bit skeptical of any claim that asserts a 95% chance of such a thing not occurring based on the reasons that were provided

trump is all about free markets, limited government, individual freedoms etc etc

kinda like mr. bitcoin

Except you gotta throw the self-dealing, narcisisms, attention whoring, bullying behavior and the attempts to be shocking, contrarian and unpredictable in there... so I am not sure about whether you can really either pinpoint him or to suggest that he is anything that is positive, except to the extent that he is likely to contribute considerably to chaos (whether that is a good thing, seems questionable)
