A friend in China mentioned today there's growing curiosity about BTC there after it was featured this weekend on CCTV.  It's made it to the daily hot topic on sina weibo.  Anyone want to speculate on whether/when this might be reflected in the exchanges?

Sure : It will make no difference whatsoever.

That is about as extreme as saying it will cause the price to explode to $10,000. I just don't see how advertising to millions or potentially billions of people will have no effect???

It had pretty much no difference the first time hit hit the TV in China.

There was a little price action based on the hype with money already on the exchanges but that soon died out.

The thing that struck me this time is that he said it was a hot topic on weibo.  Does anyone know if that was the case after the earlier mentions on CCTV?

Bank transfer to Dwolla to CampBX has been working ok for me (usually takes about 3 days for the whole process).

Good to know.  I've setup an account with Dwolla to use with Mt Gox, but until Mt Gox verifies my account it's no use there.

CampBX is a new exchange? 

Not sure-- I think they've been operating for about a year.

Re: Am I got ripped off by Coinbase?

I would avoid Coinbase.  My experience is that BTC purchases with them take 5 days.  You don't know what BTC value will be in 5 days.  If the transaction is favorable to Coinbase the transaction goes through.  If it's favorable to you, (a lot of BTC per $), then they say you've been flagged as high risk and cancel it at the last minute.
