maybe they should stop reporting these thefts with dollar values. report them in flooz or apes or whatever the original currency was and see who gives a gently caress about how many e-coin bits were stolen no dollars were stolen and there's no longer even a theoretical way to exchange these things for dollars outside of meeting a guy in an arby's parking lot with a usb stick

i'm sure molly white isn't unaware of that, and she probably realizes that's what divabot does but i think it's also just to make it more accessible to people who don't understand the nuance (by completely removing it, but still)

the people involved believe they lost that amount, which makes it more funny

infernal machines posted:it's roughly as funny as the slow kid on the playground getting their pogs stolen, except someone at some point paid actual dollars for those pogs the difference here is that the "slow kid" tends to spend all his time pretending he's smarter than all the other kids, telling them they'll die poor while he'll be richer than god, and being a greedy gently caress you got mine piece of poo poo also those pogs are like the shittiest looking pogs anyone has ever seen and i mean what the gently caress where did you even manage to find something so goddamn ugly and why do you keep repeating you actually like them for the art even those goddamn alf pogs that dweeb kid brought were better than this jesus christ e:f;b

demanding an immediate halt to all Matt Levine vacation days, until we can figure out what the hell is going on https://twitter.com/WaltHickey/status/1635702220170592263 e: or ordering Matt Levine on permanent vacation , I guess that’s the responsible move but seems far less fun

It's an interesting idea. I think it requires follow-up research focusing specifically on the companies covered in the newsletter in the days prior to the vacation rather than the general market conditions.
