[GNHLUG] MerriLUG: April 2nd 2013 - Bitcoin

[Peter Petrakis]

"The value of red-hot Bitcoins tumbled more than 20% overnight after one of
the virtual currency’s key exchanges grappled with the most powerful cyber
attack it has ever seen and the second major blitz in less than a week."

If you can buy puts against this then it's easy money. Why don't they
suspend trading during a DoS or an institute an uptick rule?
