that article posted earlier pointed out that tether keeps injecting fake money a billion dollars at a time. by injecting it 999,999,900 dollars at a time it doesn't look suspicious any more!

Tron is a blockchain-based decentralized platform that aims to build a free, global digital content entertainment system with distributed storage technology, and allows easy and cost-effective sharing of digital content.

Tron was founded in September 2017 by a Singapore based non-profit organization called the Tron Foundation. It is headed by CEO Justin Sun and has a dedicated in-house development team that includes renowned technology stalwarts.



I don't remember why tether moves tethers from one blockchain to another, there was some stupid reason related to the relative prices of the tokens that represent tether, which theoretically have a different valutation than the dollar peg Tether ltd. offers for them?

It was stupid, that's all I recall.

The stuff where people try to hire hitmen on the dark web and their hires always being feds is incredibly funny to me.

not only snatched, but he got distracted by a fake lovers' quarrel while using the laptop (and logged in to silk road as dread pirate roberts), the laptop was snatched by cops, and they had to keep moving the mouse around to prevent it from going to sleep and getting locked while they copied files from it.
