RE: Circle Buys Poloniex For 400M

in #news7 years ago

No doubt that this is a shot in the arm for the entire crypto space. What with Goldman Sacks behind Circle, this is something to be taken very seriously. And it's a payment company to boot! We may be in for a real transformation of Poloniex into a 1st tier power player.

Sort:  

I am more than sure that this will completely transform Poloniex. I am a bit interested/worried what they will come up with in the next 1-2 years. Goldman are always one step in front of the other. In my opinion these guys are the most influencive bank.

The smart money always adapts and goes with the flow. It never fights the trend. Goldman has been very spot on for a lot of years by identifying and riding profitable trends and I expect them to be true to that in crypto as well. I'd be very surprised if they tried to do anything but further accentuate the natural course of events. Their getting involved is a huge plus for crypto. It's another sign that things are still just warming up.

I totally agree with you on this one. They see the potential and they bought themselves a pretty comfortable "surf" to ride the tide. Also for 400M their interest is quite significant. They would never have backed this deal, if they didn't saw the ponetial for huge returns !

P.S. Did you see WeissRatings comment for BitShares ? I know you are a BTS holder and believer. What do you think for their comment that once EOS is launhed, it wouldn't make any sense to own BTS. I don't agree but, I am not that informed about BTS. Would be interesting to hear your view :)
