Paysafe Share Discussion Threads

[malcolmmm] 23/12/2016 20:31

Online payments business Skrill (formerly Moneybookers) recently enabled Bitcoin deposits for at least some of its users. The London-based PayPal alternative, which is a subsidiary of Paysafe Group, has not talked about their Bitcoin integration much at all, and requests for comments on the subject were not returned.

Bitcoin deposits are not available in the United States, and a full list of countries where this deposit method is possible has not been made public. Having said that, Umati Blockchain Ltd. CEO Michael Kimani confirmed to CoinJournal that the option is available in his account in Kenya. CoinJournal reached out to Kimani to get more details on how bitcoin is filling the gaps between different payment systems in Kenya.

Skrill Deposits Bitcoin

Is Skrill Popular in Kenya?





PayPal is the most popular online wallet in Kenya by far, with Skrill in competition for second place with Neteller (also owned by Paysafe Group). According to Google Trends data, Bitcoin is at least just as popular as Skrill in terms of general interest.

So another .22% reduction by AEK - another 1 million shares closed.

AEK now down to 2.61% as of 21.12.2016 based on today's report

OXFORD & public equity same as before

[heliweli] 23/12/2016 11:59

Profit takers moving in.

[malcolmmm] 23/12/2016 11:55

then again the shorts may try an attack to keep the share price down. PAYS will have this covered no doubt

[malcolmmm] 23/12/2016 11:21

boadicea I think you could be right. I was thinking that if I was short I would want to buy some before close today. I am looking for a last minute surge. like everyone else who is long here.

What odds a "Price monitoring extension"?

[albanyvillas] 23/12/2016 10:59

climbing a stairway to heaven and 700p

[boadicea] 23/12/2016 10:58

I have visions of the last few minutes today (12:29pm) being like the closing seconds of an ebay auction!

[ddav] 23/12/2016 10:58

Yes precisely, one reason I added today.

[boadicea] 23/12/2016 10:51

Technically the cancellation is probably rather irrelevant as it is quite easy to issue new shares (e.g. by a simple authority resolution at agm). The importance lies in the message it gives.
Who is selling is also immaterial - the art is to buy when it produces most effect and this morning in a thin market is a likely candidate.

[ddav] 23/12/2016 10:36

Hi John how goes it?
Good post 5664, I agree they are buying and cancelling those sold, surely if an institution sells then Pays wil counteract and buy/cancel those also.

[malcolmmm] 23/12/2016 10:01

Perhaps a nice upward trust before close of play, 12.30 isn't it? a 360p plus would be good.

[tsmith2] 23/12/2016 09:50

Or that the company hasn't as yet bought any meaningful amounts...

[johnv] 23/12/2016 09:48

The buyback is up to £100m worth regardless of how many shares they manage to purchase and at what price. They are buying in the market those shares being sold by others and cancelling them. I.e. gone no longer available. Like someone mentioned, the price could stay down because some institution has decided to use the buyback as a chance to offload some.

[mertles] 23/12/2016 09:32

...except on the ex-dividend date the share price would be expected to open down approx.10p making them £3 million.

[oohrogerpalmer] 23/12/2016 09:21

If they did give a divi then all the shorters would have to pay up.
A 10p divi would mean that anybody with 30m shares short would have to pay £3M .
Soon close out then !!!!
