And I'm sure bitcoiners will give even more if you do the following: Save all your receipts of what you bought for you and your kid.

The local media love heart throb stories and anything to do with bitcoin. If the media poo poos you... Let me know... I have a few connections. Share a video link on r/Bitcoin to share your story.... So we know we didn't give in vain. Good luck to you and your family this holiday season... Beans, rice and vitamin life... I've been there.... Dropping a tear as I type cause I know how you must feel. Please do as I told... So we know it's not in vain.

It's that time of the month again, now with a disclaimerquote:In these charts I've calculated the line of best fit through the log of price from Bitstamp. This is the middle of the yellow line. Then, I've created bands of width LN(0.3) to give each of the colours. There's nothing special about the width, other than it roughly keeps all price volatility within the rainbow. All these charts show are the difference between the price trend and actual daily price. The "Buy!" and "Sell!" labels are not financial advice. There is no guarantee history will repeat itself and return price back to the red of the charts.

Sooner or later they'll discover that counting each transaction thrice is even better!

hang on, so thermos is paying 25 loving thou a month each to four programmers, said programmers have an almost complete lack of portfolios, references or other indicators that they are not simply friends of thermos who know a little java all in all he is using, what, over a million bucks, to supposedly create an utopian new forums software to protect them from cosbys? and when questioned by the small segment of bitcoiners with more than two braincells he angrily rants and raves about how he's not accountable in any way to them? man, i am in the wrong loving business

I guess four developers at $300k a year don't get why database software exists and think that using a key-value on-disk store directly is a good idea for a large forum.

thermos is going to spend 5 million dollars on that forum, and then it's going to a) choke as soon as more than 25 people try to use it and b) get cosby'd on release day

Guys what if we come up with an elaborate plan to kill an animal and then blame that on banks or maybe even the Fed? Wouldn't bitcoins have to become the new world currency then?

You're assuming that no one has Also he might have somehow convinced the "developers" to accept bitcoin, and I don't think that bitcoin income gets taxed until you sell them, unless you're mining maybe?

so thermos figured out he wants to pocket this money, but has to make it look legit instead of just shutting down the site and absconding with the bitcoins? seems like a lot of work, and his approach is very amateurish. all he had to do was claim he was hacked and the bitcoins stolen.
