Bitcoin could underpin a perfect utopian society.

It’s still relatively anonymous, but you have to use the blockchain which is entirely public. If people know your crypto address then anyone can see all of your transactions. And because the entire...

The irony is that criminals really don’t use Bitcoin very much for this kind of money laundering when compared to the use of cash, diamonds, gold bars, “Swiss” bank accounts etc. All the...

This is the best line of all. 😂


“The value of the Bitcoin was worth around £2bn at the time of initial estimates - but due to the fluctuation in the currency's value, it has since increased to...

Absolutely!

Sadly PayPal have stopped allowing UK users to buy it. That would have been the easiest way. So I had to use my Coinbase account and am now worried about telling him that he’s going...

My Dad asked me to buy him £1000 of Bitcoin over Christmas, out of the blue!

He’s 82.

Turns out he’s been subscribed to some online finance newsletter that sometimes has articles about BTC...

Ignore the 25% thing. It’s a move made on the last day’s trading of the old fund that used that ticker back in April. Nothing to do with the new ETF.

The new BTC spot fund starts trading at...

You can't invest anyway, from the UK.

I'm not sure what's hard to understand here? (Ignoring the old Defiance ETF text that's not been updated yet) It's similar to the SPDR Gold spot ETF.
...

The Yahoo site is linking to an old ticker IBIT which was a Defiance Short futures ETF. I'm sure it'll all switch over to the new one soon.


I actually though Blackrock's ticker was going to be...

There will be some arbitrage during the day, until the spot BTC gets bought at the end of ( or maybe a few times) each day.

The market doesn't open for real until 2.30pm, so this is just...

Blackrock's ETF already 25% up in the pre-market.

They're all physically backed by real Bitcoin. Proper spot ETFs.

Most of them are using Coinbase as the custodian and Jane Street to do the "cash creates" work and send the money to coinbase for...

Anyone know how to find the link outside the paywall?

Simply amazing how the you're always there to poke and prod people.

Whatever gives you kicks, I guess.

The hardest part is taking profits on the way up and selling it all when it’s up there despite all the hype saying it’s going to go even higher.

I was just making the point that the underlying program is an almost identical copy of ripple’s.

Appreciate that they’re very different though. 👍🏼

The new FedNow payments service that the US Gov rolled out yesterday in the hope that all banks and banking service providers adopt it, is apparently an almost identical copy of the Ripple/XRP ledger...

Does Gary Gensler quit?

He might be accused of wasting a quarter of a billion dollars of tax payer’s money on these legal battles which he’s lost (in part).

Surely he’s gotta go?

Coinbase also pumping off the back of the XRP ruling.

The ruling states that XRP/crypto tokens bought via and exchange are not securities. This will likely mean that institutions will have to buy...
