$50 billion supercomputer to ‘game’ the Forex market (also, bridge for sale)

Here’s an interesting little item:

John Fitzpatrick and his partners are planning to spend $50 billion and use a gigawatt of energy to power an Exaflop computer data center to game the $5 trillion foreign exchange market.

$50 billion for a computer. Yeah, I’m calling b/s on this one. (The guy plans to finance it with short-term notes. I reckon they should hire this guy for publicity)

Anyway, for a giggle, more:

Exaflop computer project for Super programmed trading of the $5 trillion foreign exchange market is now hiring

and

The Bitcoining of the $5 trillion Foreign Exchange Market

I hope it does go ahead, another excuse and something else for the tin hats to obsess over.
