Largest Bitcoin Scam since Mt.Gox comes to end (self.Bitcoin) submitted 5 hours ago by gizzgizzle Yesterday night, largest Bitcoin Scam operation came to an end.

You will read about it soon in the so called "bitcoin news".

I love this. The Pegasus horde of bitcoins I want to acquire is getting cheaper and cheaper. Once you truly understand that bitcoin can't be killed, and *will* eventually take over, the price doesn't matter anymore. In fact, the lower the better. (self.Bitcoin) submitted 3 hours ago by americanpegasus I used to eye $1200 coins and think... Wow, no way I'll be able to get in on that. Now it's different. The price has come down to incredibly low levels and even people like me who missed the boat have a chance. And of course that chance will come on the back of fear and desperation; how else could it possibly happen? So I'm excited about this. As someone with ten coins who wants a hundred, this just means that I'll be able to afford more coins this month. And you better believe I'm buying as hard as I can. I'm even looking into getting a bank loan so I can buy more. And I thought I only had until 2015 before the price started going back up. Looks like the buy window will be open a little longer. Once you really understand the inevitability of bitcoin, you see right through the rest of the smoke and mirrors. You understand things for what they really are. It all becomes clear. In this moment.... [–]americanpegasus[S] 4 points 3 hours ago I have lost about $500 in the past couple of months on my bitcoins, it's true. But you know what? Lol. I once lost $8000 in an hour on some penny stock scam. You think loses in the three digits even phase me anymore? But more than that, it's the principle. My attitude would be the same even if my losses were six digits. Because I have learned to see through the fear. I now understand what it means to really buy the blood in the street. This is the lessons that losing money will teach you. It will instruct you in the art of managing your own emotions, even to the point of ridiculing them. If your thesis was valid at $600 a coin, it's even more valid at $200 a coin... Unless you never believed in what you were buying in the first place and were trying to ride some 'greater fool uptrend'. Not me. I'm wiser. I've been forged in the fires of losses and failures. I now have wisdom from the seventh level. I am the shadow that trolls fear in the night. I am the American Pegasus. And I'm buying bitcoin.

if you don't short Bitcoin, that shows you actually have faith in the currency.  also, if you don't bet on red at the roulette table, you are implicitly endorsing black. yes, even if you are actually playing poker or not even in the casino.

I have discovered that several prominent bitcoin trolls are, in fact, bots. I will be referring these users for administrative action unless they can pass a series of special Turing tests I have designed. (self.Buttcoin) submitted 7 hours ago by americanpegasus The admins have acknowledged there is a severe troll problem in the bitcoin community, and are ready to mass delete accounts and ban entire IP address ranges. The worst part is that I have recently discovered that many prominent bitcoin 'critics' are actually just a cleverly designed bot. So when people ask, "How can these users sit around all day and bash bitcoin?" They don't. They are a bot, which is a double strike against Reddit TOS. Therefore, beginning immediately, any account with more than ten negative comments against bitcoin on /r/Bitcoin in the last month will have to pass a Turing test I will administer, on request, or else their accounts and any other linked IP addresses will be banned within 24 hours. You have been warned. http://www.reddit.com/r/Buttcoin/comments/2s90au/i_have_discovered_that_several_prominent_bitcoin/ OJ MIST 2 THE DICK fucked around with this message at 13:29 on Jan 13, 2015 |

Overstock.com offers employees all-bitcoin paychecks By Ciara Linnane Published: Jan 9, 2015 2:03 p.m. ET Online retailer is a big believer in the digital currency AFP/Getty Images NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — Overstock.com Inc. demonstrated a surprisingly high level of commitment to digital currencies Friday with the news that it is planning to offer its employees the option of being paid in bitcoin. The discount online retailer made the announcement in a release about a new bitcoin ATM that it has installed at its corporate headquarters in Salt Lake City, Utah. “Moving cryptocurrencies out of the realm of geeks and into the realm of the rest of us requires making changes at all levels of the financial ecosystem,” Chief Executive Patrick Byrne said in the release. “An important part of this effort is making digital money ATMs accessible.” Overstock.com OSTK, +1.49% has been accepting bitcoin as payment since Jan of 2014. Customers have made $3 million worth of purchases with bitcoin since then. The company says an analysis of the first year of usage indicates that Utah has the second-highest adoption of the currency among U.S. states, after New Hampshire. Since its launch in 2009, bitcoin, an electronic currency that is traded by users who store it in digital wallets, has won fans and detractors, while bitcoin-focused companies have attracted large sums of investment dollars from venture-capital firms. The currency has been criticized for its volatility, climbing to a peak of $1,150-a-coin in December of 2013 to $284.76 in recent trading. A wide range of companies including Amazon.com Inc. AMZN, -1.86% Target Corp. TGT, +0.26% CVS Health Corp. CVS, -0.74% eBay/PayPal EBAY, -0.77% Tesla Motors Inc. TSLA, -2.15% Microsoft Corp. MSFT, -1.25% and Dell Inc. accept it as payment. Bitcoin’s price declined by about two-thirds in the past year, according to the CoinDesk Bitcoin Price Index, which factors in prices from several bitcoin exchanges. It was trading at about $930 in January 2014. The currency suffered a setback in 2013, when the Tokyo exchange Mt. Gox collapsed after hackers stole 800,000 bitcoins, which were valued at about $500 million at the time. Earlier this week, the Slovenia-based exchange Bitstamp said it was suspending its service temporarily, after losing about 19,000 of the coins in a breach. Overstock.com shares were slightly higher in early trade, but are down 20% in the past 12 months, while the S&P 500 has gained 12%. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/overstockcom-offers-employees-all-bitcoin-paychecks-2015-01-09

poik007 posted:so if you're paid in butts and the butt is priced 250$, let's say, and you're paid 4 butts for two weeks of work of course not indeed; that's what "payment is denominated in X" means. I don't get a different number of USD each week as it's stronger or weaker against RMB. having income and expenses in different currencies -- even grown up full-faith-and-credit currencies -- is in my experience a stressful affair, but without separate hedges it's inherent to the model.
