Looks like they doing a little more than just buying up a domain. Perhaps they are just looking to get into supporting the backbone of things and getting a massive cut out of the deal. At the very least they are making some interesting plays.

Supporting clients in the array of fields they list could mean quite a few things. Rather interesting to say the least.
I’m also quite shocked by how many Economists they are looking to hire.

Granted that means nothing. I’ve just never seen a company need that many before. After reading quite a few of the job descriptions I guess they just have a need for them.
They are in so many markets I bet they could get away with for a while almost openly hiring people away to set up their own exchange, support staff, and integration with all of their products to accept it. They are looking to hire quite a lot of interesting quantities of: programmers, hardware exporters, and other types of people as well. Now granted with all the things they do they do have just a “need” for having those kinds of people around but I’m wondering how many job descriptions are not 100% being honest in what they these people will be working on.
