Last summer, the Winklevoss twins were unable to get their Bitcoin ETF pushed through the SEC. If you were around the day the decision came through, it was a wild ride.
Since then Bitcoin has doubled. But what would it take for Bitcoin to double again, or hit $10000 in the next 4 months?
Who knows! But, these 2 people might help:
First, the new Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi is a big fan of Bitcoin, http://fortune.com/2017/08/30/uber-ceo-dara-khosrowshahi-bitcoin/
"This raises the tantalizing prospect that Khosrowshahi, whose background is in finance, will experiment with accepting digital currency on the world's biggest ride-sharing platform."
In 2015 Uber gave over 1 Billion rides. Adding Bitcoin as an acceptable payment method would entice millions to download wallets, and begin using Bitcoin regularly.
Second, the SEC, in what seems like a back door deal, has hired Dalia Blass. Dalia is a lawyer who used to work at Ropes & Gray, the same law firm used by the Winklevoss twins to submit their ETF to the SEC. https://www.ropesgray.com/
Stay tuned.
