I thought pogs were all supposed to be the same size. How do those fit in a pog tube? You can get a fuckton of kickass pogs on ebay. like 600 for 30 bucks. I should buy a bunch incase they suddenly take off and are worth $1000 a piece in 2 years.

The new dude writing the buttcoin articles is actually a bitcoiner. There is no Korean dude. He is the Korean dude. He claimed to be a real journalist to wiggle his way into buttcoin and use it as a soapbox to steal bitcoins. He walks away with 50 bitcoins and the good name of buttcoin is forever muddied. He wasn't reporting on the poop. He want touching the poop. He is the poop.

There are screenshots of Inaba's posts in the attachements on that document. I wonder if any harm can come to josh for failing to admit to that alias. I'm still saddened to see no mention of jeff ownby's purchase and operation of bitcoinx.com, which had the bunk profit calculator with BFL unit's numbers plugged into it mentioned in the recent documents.

Yeah, but evidence was quietly deleted off of bitcoinx.com after the FTC stepped in, but is still accessible on archive.org. http://web.archive.org/web/20140625140321/http://www.bitcoinx.com/profit/ It supports the FTC's claim that BFL was misrepresenting the profitability of the product and deleting evidence more than it does that they were undermining journalistic integrity. The weusecoins situation proves they're scumbags. The bitcoinx situation proves they're criminals.

His twitter says he's working at Harvard part time, but his linkedin says under education: Harvard university Doctor of Philosophy{Ph D). journalism. 2014-2021(expected) So i think we can drop the whole extension school thing. harvard isn't listed under employment, his only job since 2011 was some temp thing at a library, and he self admittedly had a B average in high school. I would hope Harvard has more stringent entry requirements than devry. This isn't helldumping either, this is relevant to discussion because his linkedin has buttcoin plastered all over it. Even in the Harvard section. You have destroyed buttcoin's sterling reputation. What was once a site with a strong enough reputation to be cited by the government in a federal court case is now a laughing stock. At this point you'd be lucky to be referenced by the defense.

same song different chorus. tons of these "cloudmining" contract sites have popped up, all assumed to be a front ends for amhash, much like all of the 7% weekly interest scams were buying into BCST. Even the one insurance company's "insurance" was invested in BCST because when they 7% paid out, they could have paid out all kinds of insurance! Now there's cloudmining.website, hashie, amhash, cryptomine.io, hashprofit, nicehash.com, etc.... All these companies claiming to sell hashing power, and yet the overall speed of the network isn't going up. If they're actually selling imaginary hashing power with the expectation that the difficulty would have continued it's 10% bi-weekly jump, and nobody they ever sold to could ever recoup 100% of their investment, there are going to be more and more of these going tits up. It's also likely that at some point they'll panic and actually invest in hashing power to cover their rear end only to invest in someone else pulling the exact same con. We could see a domino effect like we did with pirate where person E owes person D owes person C owes person B owes person A, and everybody is getting ready to cut and run. indigi posted:why would you conclude your scam by creating an ARG instead of disappearing Apparently he still pops his head up to troll reddit every time he's mentioned. http://www.reddit.com/user/cryptocyprus

He is the worst criminal in the history of man kind. It's like stealing a million dollar painting and selling out as canvas. Gox only disappeared like 20 mil in real money, and even then the money actually went to customers cashing out. The majority of the $500 mil that went missing was just imaginary money created on their internal Ledger.

text editor posted:i thought this was in direct violation of the courts No, you see, when they give BFL permission to activate free extra bonus hashing for them, they convert their "cloud mining pre-order" to an "immediate shipping e-book order with free cloud mining". That way, they aren't required to offer refunds because your product already shipped. There is nothing to refund when your free cloud mining bonus gift doesn't arrive. Their reports to the court can also list all orders as "shipped"

fermun posted:they did an interview in the runup before the $266 bubble where they claimed they picked up ~100,000 bitcoins from june 2012 to january 2013 at $8-$15 apiece. who knows what they did since that second bubble but if they threw in the towel it'd pretty quickly crash everything That's why they're trying to launch that ETF. pass the bag onto others without selling onto bitcoin markets. They're trying to calculate the value in the same way bitcoiners do. total bitcoins times current price equals value. No accounting for the lack of liquidity and market depth. The SEC should take one look at the bearwhale situation and see that anybody with 1/10th of the number of bitcoins the winkletwinks have can massively manipulate the market they're trying to base the ETF on, and call in a FEMA hitsquad to take out everybody involved.

The strange part is, it drops on 250 volume, climbs back up on 1 volume, and then a pile of buy orders are immediately jump in under the new high price. We always assumed it was goxbots buying to prop up the price, which their books seem to have proven to be true. Kinda makes me think these other exchanges are running similar bots.

surebet posted:buy and sell prices aren't the same, and in already inefficient now extra volatile markets a 2-3$ spread between the two prices is pretty normal But the second it rises, buy orders come in to fill the spread, which doesn't happen when it drops. For example, the last transacted price was at 5, there are buy orders for 1, 2, 3, 4, and sell orders for 6, 7, 8 and 9. someone sells, it drops to 4, then to 3, then to 2, then to 1. There i now a 5 point spread, with no orders filling the gap. Someone buys and fulfills the lowest standing sell offer at 6, and immediately buy orders come in at 2, 3 4, and 5. if 200 of something sold at 4, and one of that same thing sold at 6, why would so many people rush in to pay 5.9?
