Somethingswful is the true winner of bitcoin, they never had to touch the poop but have probably made thousands from accounts and avatars and whatnot

I am the true winner because thanks to all these threads I told my Dad that if he ever touched bitcoin or any crypto-currency I was going to cut off contact with him and tell my Mom to divorce him. Fortunately he doesn't have much to get scammed out of anymore and my Mom has a pension he can't touch, but over the decades my Mom estimates he's been scammed out of at least 2 million dollars. He somehow managed to fall for one of those Nigerian 419 scams in the loving 70's.

In crypto currency news, hackers just pulled off the biggest heist in history. $400M in some alt coin stolen.

https://cryptonews.com/news/coincheck-hacked-more-than-500-million-xem-stolen-1093.htm

quote:

As of right now, the XEM coin’s price has fallen by 18.46% in the last 24 hours

Reactions vary from people calling this event “spreading FUD” (Fear, uncertainty and doubt, or a disinformation strategy) to those who are sure this event is just whales* moving money out of his wallet/exchange.” The public seems reluctant to consider this a hack, and with good reason: panicking, as we see from the price drop, can play heavy tricks on the market.

fake news XEM fine

haha how has this random shitcoin not completely collapsed and people moved on to something else. crypto speculation is so loving dumb

edit: since the article was posted it has gone back up and is only down 9% lmao

Good riddance to FUDster Alpha Mayo!

If he had invested those 10 dollars in BITCOIN instead of a Something Awful account in 2009, he would have over TEN BILLION DOLLARS right now, instead of being banned for attempts at market manipulation.

Sad, really. I told him to buy bitcoin, he didn't listen. Are YOU listening? Buy and HODL!

Now now if we start pardoning everyone rule of law would cease to have meaning.

The law must be unbending and irreversible, much like Bitcoins

I find this to be quite a scathing critique in the end. We also have open doors in our economy through which a few can get most of the value we create if they have no moral standards

On the other hand, lmfao it's gonna be funny when someone abuses this
