gox should have mentioned 0 fees earlier, the earliest i heard of this was today in an email from them (i guess like everybody else), one day after it's already started.  if they had made it more public i expect there would have been massive fluctuations as people who want to get in would be that much more inclined to buy given that they would have gained an extra 0.6% btc, and the opposite goes for traders that want to get out (gaining 0.6% more fiat).

this is common sense, expect volatility

I thought because it was a break..from them not necessarily permanently 0% trading fees you'd see more variance.. pretty much what we saw when the bots weren't configured for it, Thursday.

Gox that is

Am I the only one that is seeing that coins on much more sparse on Mtgox than on Stamp?  If this is true, it would suggest that in the future it is going to be impossible for Stamp to keep up with Gox.

So much has been talked about regarding the fiat "stuck" in Gox and how people would theoretically have to buy bitcoin to get their currency out. However, the other thing is that who wants to sell their coins there if you can't get the money out? If most people with coins who need the money quickly would prefer to use Bitstamp for these obvious reasons, there is just going to be ALOT more bitcoins available on Bitstamp

We are seeing this in the last week. The spread has been over $200 for no particularly good reason.

Its a little crazy that with all these different exchanges, there are such different situations at each one that change the price dramatically and that most people are not (or can not) taking advantage of it (arbitrage).

I can't wait until there is parity in the exchange prices. Although I really question if that will happen anytime soon.

look im just saying, the only reason why people think btc can go to $10000 is because if enough people start using it so much that it becomes accepted everywhere, such that the only reason why it would be worth $10000 per BTC is because fiat would become essentially redundant or worthless.  

on top of this i just saw someone post about a major Chinese state owned telecommunications company that started accepting btc on a previous page, $10000 is coming

look im just saying, the only reason why people think btc can go to $10000 is because if enough people start using it so much that it becomes accepted everywhere, such that the only reason why it would be worth $10000 per BTC is because fiat would become essentially redundant or worthless.  With another huge Chinese company, especially a state owned one, shows that this can happen sooner than people expect.

basically fuck the speculators, fuck the greedy assholes that think it can just be a get rich quick scheme and dont fully understand btc.  The move to $10000 is irrelevant of them.  what will get us to $10000 is real people converting their fiat because btc is better

(ps i know this has been said before but your comment suggests that you dont understand the way to $10000)

Now only Paypal will hold it back from 10K mark. And yes; I know it was a Kilogram of gold. How many months away you think we are from making this true?

holy fucking shit we are going to hit $10000 way sooner than expected. the world is turning to btc faster than anyone could have thought, fiat really may become redundant in the not so distant future

Also, this is an ad for a special offer, if you spend 500rmb in BTC, you get 1000rmb in subsidized crap or something...(probably the phone)

does anyone know where i can find a graph of btc bid orders/ ask orders.  $35m vs BTC19,000 looks pretty bullish to me, but i want to see it on a chart
