mBTC is called milibits, this is a system used on most markets/ebay style where you hardly spend as muc has 1 BTC so prices are going from mBTC.

Think ETF Will Be Approved ?
If you believe so, grab as much BTC as you can and leverage them for long on SimpleFX, Poloniex, BitMEX, or BitFinex. If nothing stops this train this is the easiest trades ever.
You are not sure? You can hedge.. Keep some BTC yet bet on prediction markets for it to go down and short it. There is many ways, please do your own research before doing any trades if you never did that before!

I don't care to much about an ETF being approved. All the news I've read is pointing to the asian countries being the driver of BTC's latest rise to record highs. I'm also hearing very persistent rumors that China is going through all of it's internal exchanges to wipe out the fraud before officially adopting BTC for it's One Road project.
BTC/Silver/Gold are all winners if one takes the long view.
Or just buy ETH. The upside is much higher and the use of Ether goes far beyond just currency. Just my 2 cents.
I haven't made the time to research ETH yet, although the exchanges make them easy enough to obtain so I have a few as a pure curious speculation. Either way the future is going to be awesome.
I made a chart - goes back as far as Bitstamp has been trading Bitcoin. Gold is the black bars and Bitcoin is the orange line
My view of the drivers - currency controls in China, India and Venezuela. The ETF approval is pretty uncertain. I found someone prepared to put a number on it 10 to 15% https://vinnylingham.com/preventing-another-bitcoin-bubble-98dee44e2c7c#.iep9uqk4w
I like it! Not much time till we know whats up
Guess I will find out in a few more days if my prediction is accurate. I've been saying it will peak at $1400 since Oct - though I expected it to happen last month. But as is always the case - just speculation.
Yeah 8 days or so since 11th is Saturday :)
