It’s like you’re digging up gold in your back yard.
Neighbor looks over the fence and says, “Hey man. What’s going on?”
You say, “We’re digging up gold, get a shovel and come on!”
Neighbor says, “Whoa buddy. Have you seen the price of shovels? Forget it!”

Why is there usually a big price difference between coinbase and gemini?

If you manage to lose your bitcoin there is no recourse. It is gone.

Coinbase is way higher today. My guess: So much buying pressure from new accounts is bidding up the price there.

Actually with the ledger the important thing is the keywords that you wrote on a card they give you. You can restore your wallet on a new one if you lose it.

Meh. The poopooers to me seem to constantly talk abotu the negatives of bitcoin as if people buying in are stupid somehow, while ignoring that these stupid people are making actual, real money off of it.
You can think it's dumb, you can't think it has no real use or value, but that doesn't change the fact it's making a lot of people money.

So nicehash or its users are just out 70 million with no recourse? Yikes.

Do you think there is an arbitrage opportunity? That gemini will follow coinbase prices and vice versa?

what's scary is that no one seems to care about a hack causing such a large sum being stolen

Plenty of scammers out there for sure.

Maybe. Depends on how fast you can buy on one and sell on the other and the bid-ask spread.
I don’t know how well it would work but i suspect bots are all over it and the price will equalize soon.
Right now:
Coinbase $16930
Bitstamp. $15580

this likely reflects the disproportionate number of new investors on coinbase and the relative ease of getting fiat onto it to buy BTC or ETH or LTC
imagine each exchange as a different market. then imagine different markets as different groups of people on two separate sides of a room that are trading coins.
so in theory, arbitrage opportunities exist where you can sell high on one exchange and then buy back lower on another but its potentially risky with fees and market delays.

Yeah i supposed it would work but I am not 100% sure on how to buy on one, take the coins to a wallet, then sell on another.
Posted on 12/7/17 at 10:06 am to anewguy
ive never attempted to arbitrage but i know people do; when its volatile like today it can def be done.
itd be as simple as having one account on each exchange and hoping your coins transferred in time

Try doing it with $50 of BTC and see if you can.

Not in theory. I know people who have viable businesses doing just this.

The biggest problem is it’s sucking capital from the Alts. Though LTC is holding up pretty good.
