Greenspan’s Bitcoin Comment Triggers An Algo Trading Frenzy

Multiple trading algorithms have reportedly fired no-limit Bitcoin buy orders in real time, based on Greenspan’s use of the word ‘bubble’.

The humans in the market are thrilled as well. “That is pretty much all the validation we needed” said Edward Thomas, a Bitcoin enthusiast, after watching Alan Greenspan’s comments on Bitcoin. “Just Buy now. It will appreciate 10X in less than a year. Do not bet against Greenspan. Ever.” Edward, a Software Engineer who is in-between jobs, opined (Some people believe that he is Satoshi Nakamoto).

Alan Greenspan made his ‘bubble’ remark on Bitcoin in an interview with Bloomberg TV (Some people believe that he is Satoshi Nakamoto). Silicon Valley engineers took a break from Coinspotting to tweet about his remarks and buy some Bitcoins.

Alan’s remarks also seem to have tipped off quite a few asset managers globally. “I had some Google alerts set for the terms Greenspan and Bubble. I go all-in on anything he calls a bubble” Patrick Travolta, whose Black Label fund manages 3 Billion dollars globally, told SVChronicle (Some people believe that he is Satoshi Nakamoto).
