NYSE creates a new bitcoin index
The New York Stock Exchange is diving deeper into the world of Bitcoin with the introduction of a bitcoin pricing index.
The index, which will be made available through NYSE's Global Index Feed and free on its website for a limited time, is intended to serve as a definitive benchmark for valuing the currency ? in the same way that the LIBOR index is used to measure global interest rates. "We are now going to use our name, reputation and global index provider stature to provide bitcoin values that the rest of the market can look to," says Tom Farley, who serves as president of NYSE, the venerable financial institution that has come to symbolize Wall Street and capitalism more broadly. Full story here http://mashable.com/2015/05/19/new-york-stock-exchange-bitcoin/ What do you guys think? A big step towards a legitimate acceptance of bitcoin? A subversive ploy to devalue bitcoin? |

Why would the NYSE get involved indexing it then?

fair question, i wont pretend to know. what i do know is that a currency without a central bank is not a currency, just a medium of exchange rife with fraud. so who really is sitting on all those mt gox millions that vanished?

coins exist, and the only people harmed were those stupid enough to leave their money with the scammers. Whereas with your stupid currency, you don't know how many units exist, and everybody who uses it gets fleeced as a matter of course. (inflation is theft by counterfeiting).
