The price is starting to coil up here in the high $50s. The earnings release/buyout call should be on the horizon. I think there's a lot of pessimism backed into the price regarding ICO delays and buyout uncertainty. Once we get clarity I bet we have a good chance of testing for new highs.

And...we're back in business here.

Soros/The Quantum Fund exercised their warrants to purchase 2.4MM shares. Soros is now just under 10% holder of OSTK.

Happy New Year Everyone! Good to be back. Looking good today.

Did StockZoom short the morning dip? Shorts stuffed again. There's too many big pockets and upside catalysts to keep this one down.

He admitted to taking the L. Back to penny stocks he goes.

Great day again. This run seems to be just getting started. 7MM+ shares short.

If anyone has information on today's capital raise, pls post. I will do the same. Thanks all, looking forward to another great year in OSTK!

The Co-Founder of Ethereum just joined tZero's advisory board. See bottom of page on newly updated tzero website. This is going much higher.

He is back to penny stocks where his antics belong. This board is for actual investors. OSTK is the real deal.

Monday, December 18th

The lid is blowing off this thing today. Market deciphered that the news announcement was positive. I suspect we hear more news this week going into tZero ICO.

Great to see gains hold with 2.5MM shares already traded this morning. That bodes well for the week ahead.

A word of caution on bitcoin (I do like the risk reward profile better in ETH, Litecoin, possibly Bitcoin Cash).


CBOE contracts are garbage. The pricing is based solely on the gemini exchange. The bid/ask spread is $100 wide at times. There is still no real way to short bitcoin. When CME contracts launch next week and people begin to figure out how to short bitcoin. I would be very, very cautious. Most of the money that went into BTC will likely start to move to the other cryptos, some money will move to real assets (properties etc.). If I were a new buyer, I would be very cautious.

With that said, OSTK is the real deal. It is not a bitcoin play, it is a blockchain play. They already have a big jump on the competition, and they have the crypto community rooting for them.

MS buying aggressively prior to the ICO can only signal that there is a positive reception to either the ICO, e-commerce biz sale, or both.

Is our friend StockZoom around?? I've had him on ignore.

Good day today gents! Congrats, the MS disclosure is a good indicator that there is major interest in what this company is doing. MS was adding at prices in the $40s-50s. That locks up nearly 3MM shares for at least months/years.

Tom LEE is helping spread the word on OSTK, Medici and tZero.

We have only seen fluff PR news over the last few weeks. I would not be surprised to hear something substantial in anticipation of the ICO next week.

Nice to see buyers stepping in to support the low-$40s price point.

This should bounce around between $42-60 until we get some significant news. Price action is encouraging this morning.

Right behind you there. Anything in the low-mid $50s is a great place to add/re-enter. We moved passed $60 too quickly. Consolidation is healthy as we await healthy flow of upcoming news (and obviously December 18th ICO launch for tZero). There will be more volatility over the next few weeks.

You are a penny stock trader....always will be.

There's my trade log. I took profits on my deep in the money December call options and will be rolling into January calls.

Let's see yours buddy. You trading 1 lots?

Sad.

Russian money is backing the tZero ICO. It does not matter if Wall Street hates PB, Wall Street is also resistant to bitcoin as a viable currency. You have no idea what you are talking about with tZero. I worked at a hedge fund, the prime brokerage industry is ripe for disruption. tZero is that disruption. Additionally, the SEC is pushing to lower settlement times, tZero stands for zero days settlement. The patented blockchain tech they own is a better mousetrap for short-locates. Prime brokers GS and JPM will either have to license their tech, or risk losing that revenue stream. Wake up, you have no idea what you're talking about.

In the short-run, this is a tradable stock. In the long-run this is going to be an end game winner.

Still searching for your trade confirmations?

Still holding your short profits? Might be time to cover and disappear from the board again.

How is that short trade working for ya now? Post trade logs or shut it.

Wow, shorted at exactly the high of the day huh? Sounds believable.

Is your sophisticated trading system telling you to buy on this low volume consolidation?

The more vocal they are, the more they get steamrolled. How can they be so confident to short a company with only 25MM shares outstanding? There are too many near term catalysts, there have to be better short opportunities elsewhere. I think there's just a shift going on that a lot of people are scared about the potential impacts this company can have on the capital markets.

Hey SO,

I am long here, but I believe that the 13D-1 filing is merely a requirement for warrants that are exercisable within 60 days. Assuming the price appreciation continues, there is a high likelihood that the warrants will be exercised. The disclosure gives us a clearer picture of when the warrants were priced and sold (day prior to earnings). There have been some short pumpers on Seeking Alpha that are attempting to raise doubt that Soros even initiated the position at his fund. That's all hogwash, this filing should rid anyone that had doubt that zgeorge Soros had a direct interest in the growth of this company.

Post your trade confirms. Which broker are you using?

Are you buying puts or are you actually shorting the stock?

I'll go ahead and disclose my call options transactions if you validate your short positions.

One more thing. You do realize that Soros family office (Quantum Fund) paid $4MM for the right to buy 2MM shares expiring in January. Soros cornered the British pound and made $1B in the 90s.

This company will get bought out or take on a huge capital investment from multiple institutional investors.

You're hilarious. This is not a penny stock that you're used to playing in on the pink sheets.

This company is worth $2-3B market cap in the short term. Price realization between $70-120/share. More upside from potential earnings growth of blockchain businesses.

You're playing out of your league here. .

I hope you are blowing smoke because you are going to be swept away like a dirty floor.

Did you listen to the call and read the SEC filings? If you were/are short, you should have covered at $40. This could ruin you.

Someone got caught with their shorts down....

Better cover now buddy. You think George Soros just spent $4MM on a warrant to buy 2MM+ shares at $40.45 on a flyer? Get real.

The E Commerce business is being shopped for a merger by Guggenheim Partners and tZero is being promoted to hedge funds/pension funds by Soros. This is worth 2X this quarter and 5-10X by the end of next year. ICO is an afterthought for tZero now, they will be making money hand over fist.

Nice day here today...

Checking this board out brings me back down memory lane when once upon a time this was a great penny stock play. Now we have a mgmt team that every1 knows is crap, drove the stock into the ground during the '09 credit crisis, made some here a good chunk of change that were lucky enough to get in early and then out in time with a nice profit. A few people are still holding the bag, but why not turn around and purchase some LEAP puts on this thing and make some money back or at least hedge a bet against the old shares you got crapped out of. Not sure if this post will be welcome or not but just wanted 2 throw in my 2 cents.

I'm excited that we're going to be early to this party, I'm just looking for the best time frame to make the most profit on this play (counting my eggs before they've hatched but this is as close to a sure bubble if I've ever seen one).

Money supply is controlled by the Fed. Policy is controlled by Congress and the White House. If they don't raise the debt ceiling and the Govt. opts to default on obligations, jump into GLD options and make a fortune. I do not think that will happen though, if the govt. defaults there goes consumer confidence and that will cause a lottttttt of havoc in the markets here and abroad. Currencies are denominated in the U.S. dollar and a lot rides on the U.S. monetary policy. The President will push to get a deal done and they're most likely going to raise the debt ceiling and we're going to keep pumping out more and more inflationary dollars until within the next 6-12 months there will finally be a rate raise. At that point bondholders will suffer and we will hopefully prosper.

I think the guaranteed money is those jumping into real estate right now, and these short bond funds could be the ticket to quick gains. With interest rates so low, this is one of the few times to get leveraged, look at company's even those with spectacular balance sheets and little to no debt can decide to lever up now and reap rewards of higher interest rates later when the inevitable rate rise occurs. Bondholders are going to get shafted, smart money is in equities, REITS, and these ultrashort bond funds for the risk adverse.

I'm thinking interest rates will be coming up by a little bit in the near future and rise steadily in the medium term. The Fed can't keep surpressing the interest rates like they have been we haven't had rates this low for this long ever. TBT may be a good place to take advantage of that but TMV gives more leverage as well. I want to hear some opinions and viewpoints but to me the bond market has to collapse at some point. Yields will go up and prices are going to come down, don't know exactly when but I'm willing to wager it.

Forgot about this one, but got my money tied up in some other options plays at the moment. CPE is a good stock but oil volatility is keeping me honest on that sector right now. GL CatD let's find the next 10-bagger.
