Staying true to his style, during the question and answer round today Byrne revealed that he had plans for potentially listing his company on “a block chain kind of a stock exchange.”

Watching his words, he said: “I would already be interested in issuing a bond or something, so we could be the first to list this sort of security.”

He revealed that Overstock was in the early stages of looking at the legal propriety of dual listing on NASDAQ and another stock exchange. While they have not ironed out any concrete plans, he said:


Interesting. Mastercoin perhaps  Smiley
No, Nxt.


If he chose to do this, in Mastercoin or Nxt or whatever, it would be huge for the bitcoin community. Patrick Byrne is  really smart guy and the power he has, as a CEO of such a big company he has lots of control.
Do not underestimate the power of the dark side.
Regulators are not exactly powerless either.
