Why haven't we seen price rally in light of all the Braintree/PayPal news? (self.Bitcoin)

I know btc hasn't reacted to good news in a long time. But you would think something of this magnitude would produce some level of increased demand.

Either way, the whales are having a great time manipulating the price any which way they want. Expect a drop to shake bitcoin out of loose hands.

no spike for PAYPAL TOTALLY ADOPTING BITCOIN GUYS because whales are manipulating the price to stay stagnant. got it.

like food and water, my posting has no intrinsic value

looks like the "troll" (with the boring pseudonym Jeffrey) who hacked into Satoshi's account has made a pastebin, set a bounty, and started posting screenshots of the account.

quote:

A more intriguing possibility, however, is that the account was hacked. If that’s true, Jeffrey could have access to a treasure trove of private Satoshi Nakamoto emails. And that information could help unmask Nakamoto’s true identity.

Michael Marquardt, the head administrator of the the Bitcointalk.org discussion forum says that Jeffrey sent him an excerpt of an email he’d sent to Nakamoto back in March of this year. “So either the email account was compromised since March,” he says, “or the attacker gained access to old emails when he compromised the account.”

"Around the same time, the Bitcoin repository on Sourceforge was defaced to point to the troll website Buttcoin.org (har har). "

I wish I still had access to the contact email, I wonder what kind of emails the site is getting right now.

this hacker guy seems pretty poo poo so far. hand over the creds to barbarian bob already

also since that email order was from 2013, long after Satoshi disappeared, it's likely some joker used his email address as a contact email.

I'm awaiting the incoming reddit witchhunt

Could this be a government posing as a hacker in order to discredit the threat to mainstream currencies?
in the basement of the NSA, in a darkened room illuminated only by the sinister glow of monitors and blinking leds, crouches lt. col. judas b schiller, us cyber command.

the credentials prism gave him were correct: he has just logged into sourceforge with the account of the cryptoterrorist who threatens the very existence of the state he is sworn to protect. now it is time to fight back.

sweating, lt. col. schiller carefully types the word "buttcoin," then pauses to admire it. with increasing confidence he continues: "is a peer to peer butt."
