Bitcoin never stops happening. Every couple of months there's a major happening, and then the happening is over until the next happening.

Hi, Andreas!

Here's the inevitable question: what was the cause for the recent price drop? Every one has their theories- from 'this was coming' to 'this is temporary' to 'this is manipulation'.

Your thoughts? I understand that this is a subjective question and that your response will be your personal opinion.

Sentiment disconnected from fundamentals driving a tiny pool of liquidity into a whiplash reaction. Bitcoin continues to work at a broad range of prices and is dynamically adapting to the price change. Bitcoin will remain, in my opinion, a relentless anomaly that refuses to go away - a black swan that cannot be ignored or extinguished.

When I first used the Internet, I had a list of IP addresses folded up in my wallet. Those were the days before DNS. My first email was sent to an IP address.

There are already many active proposals to replace and hide addresses. I expect they will disappear just like IP addresses are hidden from most user's view.

did you ever have to send emails to IP addresses?

yeah, around that time i had a compuserve account. addresses were ugly, but they weren't ip addresses

there was a time between 80 and 83 where maybe he could have had a user account on one of the half-dozen university networks that started experimenting with tcp/ip before arpanet started using it

but he would have been like 8 years old, so i don't even believe he owned a wallet, let alone a list of ip addresses

Live from the court room, DPR may have been MTGOX's Mark Karpeles (https://twitter.com/sarahjeong)

Sarah Jeong posted:

Defense's alternative theory seems to be that MARK KARPELES OF MT GOX and one other were the real DPR.

DHS agent acknowledged under cross that he was preparing an affadavit for a warrant to search Karpeles's email.

DHS agent's OWN THEORY around early to mid 2013 was that Mt. Gox and Silk Road worked in tandem.

Investigation found that Mutum Sigilum, a Karpeles holding, had registered http://silkroadmarket.org

Karpeles's attorneys met with Baltimore law enforcement, offering to give up the identity of DPR if Karpeles was not charged w crim charges
