as long as silk road x replaces the latest seized version, and you can tip almost fractions of real money to strangers of the internet, bitcoin will never die.

This makes me legitimately sad, as the case whenever kids are forcefully proselytized into cults.

Has moneypak ever been used for something legit? It sounds like a prepaid mastercard, but you can buy drugs and poo poo online with it because it's maybe slightly more anonymous. The first time I heard of it was with an early cryptolocker, because it would only accept payment through that.

is someone like ross even rehabilitable? I see a case when someone's born into a lifestyle with a lovely education, constant descrimination, and a violent environment.

Ross had a good education, with every advantage in a presumably healthy upbringing. I think with a humane prison system, he'd get right back out and try to do something else stupid. it's not like he shouldn't have known what he was doing was wrong, or would have consequences. he chose without any necessity to subscribe to a broken political philosophy doing something he was smart enough to know was harmful and illegal.

Is there a summary of paycoin? My limited understanding is they were supposed to have a minimum value that was backed by something, the guy embelzzed/scammed/lost everything, and then the entire community became sycophants for him while he kept blaming them/others?

Zero years. Just as the judge is about to give the sentence, Antononpop is going to smash the door open with his hammer. A robotic mechsuit tele-piloted by Ver is going to charge to the front. Realizing their fiat money is worthless, praise be to Satoshi, everyone in the courtroom will surrender to the bitcoin justice league. Ross will quietly don his drug kingpin costume and casually stroll out of the room.

I wanted to have my computer beep at me for a while so I went back to https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions. It jumped from ~400 to 1200 1300 1400 to the moon, in a matter of minutes.

Are they doing more stress tests or is it just that buttcoin's terrible?

e: went back to edit after it hit 1300, passed 1400 in that time.
