Bitcoin (BTCUSD)

[gump90]

A bit of history. I am a survivor of the old Vancouver Stock Exchange which was infamous for scams. The big big players and the Brokers and the ' IN ' crowd made their fortunes selling short. You and I were discouraged from doing that. BUY was the word to us. The pro Stockateers made small fortunes by disregarding the uptick rule. They merely hammered all bids relentlessly. What I am getting at here is -- we are told that no one really runs the Bitcoin show. I'm a bit skeptical of that. All things must have leadership. I just wonder how short selling would work on the markets that are dedicated to Bitcoin. This is a very very interesting phenomenon. Maybe those HUGE computers really run it. This is the scary part to me. Are computers making slaves of US ??? Will they become the Biblical BEAST ??
