I'm sure a pullback is due at some point, but this is surpassing my most optimistic expectations. It's gone up about 15% in 24 hours, which was already a price from which a retrace would have been normal and expected.

Next week, the CME is set to start trading "Bitcoin Futures" which are to be settled in cash, something I would equate to simply a betting house for what the real bitcoin price will be, and likely being implemented solely for the purpose of attempting to suppress the true bitcoin supply/demand price.

They might as well be "futures" trading on daily temperature highs for some random US city. It would be just as legitimate.

I am now wondering if we're witnessing now a global economic revolution against centrally issued fiat currency, something that couldn't happen with gold an silver due to the PTB's successful manipulation of those prices.

What kind of cash is it settled in? thanks.

If everything is anonymous, how is it known to whom to send the cash?

Who knows? all that I have are questions about crypto-currencies.

How can the IRS be raiding the exchanges if it is anonymous?

The CME -- Chicago Mercatile Exchange -- would not be anonymous. They have applied for and received permission from the relevant federal authority (the SEC) to do futures trading in bitcoin.
