Well jmexpat, you wouldn't know, neither would I or anyone else so stop making out like you're some kind of sage. On the money laundering front I'm afraid the USD beats BTC hands down. And of course most of the laundering takes place within the ...

That's funny, they were all saying the opposite until these figures came out, even the RBA! haha I guess we could perhaps see an AUD at .65?

Well, I agree with their Yen statergy. Think the BOJ will have to reduce the bond buying and printing at some stage, in fact I think they already have. They just don't want to advertise it due to the risk of significant strengthening of the ...

Oh please, these so called experts! they seem to come out with dire predictions after the facts, where were they last week, before it all happened! Just BS.

mmm... 400m having any effect on Yen, I think not.

Can we not raise the level of this discussion by adding sensible reasoned comment.

Ho Hum... yet another central banker trashing Bitcoin. And there it is yet again, the old ill informed statement "it's the underlying blockchain technology that has value". That's like saying that the only value in the email system is the underlying ...

I have seen many interventions over the years, the rehtoric lasts a long time before action is taken and the level is far lower than most expect. At the end of it all intervention proves to be fairly ineffective and only has a temporary impact.

Wow!! Go Smike... you are a legend buddy!! that keyboard of yours must be smoking?? Chill man, go to the nearest window and take a deep breath... at the end of the day no one really gives a shit.

It's amazing how all these snake oil salesman selling BS trading courses suddenly claim to be able to crystal ball the market. In other words, pay up and you too could be a legend just like me (NOT)

Ha ha ha, it really makes me laugh when i hear FX traders looking down their noses at the crypto crowd. I mean, it's not as if fx could ever be seen as anything more than a casino for gamblers, and not very good ones at that based on the fact that ...

mmm... and these very dishonest people stand up and claim that the people who use Bitcoin are criminals!! Really?

It doesn't matter what comments he makes, the fundementals are clear. Euro economy is responding to the flood of free money. ECB will have to put the breakes on very soon, that means stop printing and raise interest rates. The measures will need to ...

Well the evidence seems to be that most traders have no idea how to trade as 95% of them fail miserably. You can put all the spin in the world on it but at the end of the day neither forex or crypto constitute investing and are in fact more aligned ...

Statistically there are a number of differences between forex investors and crypto investors. Firstly there is almost zero use of leverage in crypto as oppsed to forex where up to 95% of retail forex investors make use of levereage. These are ...

Further confirmation this morning of tapering, USD/JPY 112.28 Probably headed towards the 110 mark before too long.

mmm... i think the same sort of dorogatory comments were made about the internet way back when (possibly by me). I remember saying to a friend over dinner back in the early days of the internet that it was simply a tool for criminals and idiots, he ...

ouch!! that's a bit harsh, lots of criminals and jerks use USD as well, probably more! I wish I had been one of the smart guys who got in early, oh well, such id life. Have to say when I read statements like these I can only think it's probably a ...

FIAT currencies and their associated organisations will soon be a thing of the past. It will be a brutal battle however, the cabal will fight for their 20 Trillion dollar dominance with all they have.

No, Bitcoin doesn't come anywhere near the USD when it comes to money laundering.
