Bedankt voor de reply's. Maar ik zocht liever een aanbieder van stickers in NL.

Heb je http://bitstickers.net/ wel bekeken? Zijn heel goedkoop en in een week ongeveer heb je ze binnen (brievenbuspost).

You are still allowing people to continue to trade in this lottery? The trading engine is currently broken so I think Kraken should pause it and fix this bug.

Too bad for the 7th of December with an average just below $700 after 16 days with $700+. For now we have to settle for 20 consecutive days with average of $600+.

Would like to know this as well. Also: I made a SEPA withdrawal 48 hours ago and my daily withdrawal limit still hasn't been reset. Is this a known bug?

Edit: one hour later and my daily withdrawal limit was reset again (after approx. 49 hours). Next one that hasn't reset yet is my daily deposit limit. Currently 24 hours, 15 minutes and counting has passed since my last deposit.

OK, I've confirmed that this is a bug (not intended) and it will be fixed when we get a chance. For the time being, the daily limit is basically a 24 hour limit on transactions, and if the transaction takes more than 24 hours to complete, then this effectively extends the period. But it will be changed to be a true 24 hour funding limit. For withdrawals, the withdrawal amount will stop counting towards your limit 24 hours after you initiate it, regardless of when it completes (but, again, this isn't how it works presently).

Thank you for the update, just for your info: my previous daily withdrawal limit was reset even more than 24 hours after I have received the euros on my bank account. So this is not exactly how you are stating it here. Not complaining anyway, I appreciate your efforts in these busy days.

Question: When do monthly withdrawal/deposit limits reset? Is it a fixed day of the month or is it based on a moving sum of the previous 30 days?

Would like to know this as well. Also: I made a SEPA withdrawal 48 hours ago and my daily withdrawal limit still hasn't been reset. Is this a known bug?

Feature request: please lower the required 6 confs for a BTC deposit. An approximate hour wait is a long time if you want to send funds to Kraken and put up some orders afterwards. 3 confirmations would be more than enough against any double spend attempts.

On daily deposit messages, you show the message "Please wait 1 day(s) for the limit to expire". Perhaps you can change this to amount of hours remaining.

Would be great if you could put the last price (in my case last XBT/EUR price) in the tab title so I can scan for it together with all the other browser tabs / titles with prices (for instance like bitcoinwisdom.com). Maybe as a configurable user option?

Speaking at an economic forum on Wednesday, Yi Gang, the deputy governor of the People’s Bank of China and director of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, said that it would be impossible for China’s central bank to recognize the Bitcoin as a legitimate financial instrument in the near future. But, Mr. Yi added, people are free to participate in the Bitcoin market and he would personally adopt a long-term perspective on the currency.

Bitcoin's price vaulted above $400 on the Mt. Gox exchange on Wednesday, touching a record as the virtual currency continues to be buoyed by growth in China, limited supply and new investment products driving demand.

Bitcoin is a four-year-old virtual currency that isn't backed by a central bank and can be traded on a number of exchanges or swapped privately. A growing number of merchants also accept bitcoin as payment for goods and services, because the transaction costs associated with the currency are generally cheaper than those with credit cards or debit cards.

Bitcoin's price has been extremely volatile. The virtual currency started the year trading at $13.55. In April, it touched a then-record high of about $265 as interest in the currency continued to build. But in early October it fell back to about $90 in the wake of the bust of an online drug-trafficking website that used the currency. On Wednesday morning, it was recently trading at a high of $419.99.

There are a number of factors driving the virtual currency, according to Nicholas Colas, a market strategist at New York based global brokerage company ConvergEx Group.

He says Bitcoin's price is continuing to benefit from a bitcoin investment trust started in September by Second Market, the New York-based business known for trading pre-IPO company stock. Mr. Colas notes the trust has been "very popular."

The trust invests solely in the digital currency, and according to Mr. Colas is beginning to help lend bitcoin credibility among more traditional investors.

Another factor driving bitcoin's price higher is more interest from China, says Mr. Colas, who notes the biggest bitcoin exchange is now in China. The currency continues to see a boost from Chinese Internet giant Baidu Inc., BIDU +1.02% which started accepting bitcoin as a payment method for its online security and firewall services in mid-October.

In a note to clients earlier this month, Mr. Colas also highlighted bitcoin's limited supply as further driving interest in the virtual currency. "Why is bitcoin seemingly minted on Teflon?" he wrote. "There will never be more than 21 million bitcoins, and there are only 12.0 million currently."
