JFC every day I learn something terrible

If you can’t get webN to work, just try again with webN+1.

Turns out Trump wants FIAT not crypto as bribes.

<Scene from Spartacus>

“I am not Natoshi Sakamoto!” <crowd takes up the phrase and repeats it>

He’s clearly slurped a juice too many.

I think he just started lying and then continued lying to cover up his previous lies. And he had a deep-pocketed backer in the form of Calvin Ayre.

I dunno, you want shady people willing to do your money laundering, and murdering those that are caught is a bit of a disincentive to recruiting more.

To be honest I’ve long since forgotten where Mike Hearn stands within the crazy world of intra-BTC rivalries (Ver was behind “Bitcoin Cash” which is an offshoot) but I knew from the get-go that the facts, such as they are, in the Nix debate don’t matter. It’s become an alt-right cause celebre and yet another anecdote to weave into their yarn of dastardly SJW meddling in the holy world of FOSS. So trying to derive any sense of the analogy is useless. It’s all nasty vibes.

I wish I could say “let them fight” but this is bad for the environment and bad for productive uses of energy so it’s more a “whoever wins, we lose” situation.

LOL @ Calvin Ayre noping out. Look forward to dangling in the breeze, CSW

I think we need a limey’s take on whether this is legit or simply cultural appropriation.

Acausal trade with the robot god. Obviously it lost a lot of dough trusting in tethers.

Is it only me who gets this association

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Frankly the example would be better if instead of a coffee, Alice wants to buy a kilo of horse. At least with those stakes someone would be motivated to sit down and peruse the insane network diagrams.

I had honestly forgotten that this was a thing.

Maybe they were trying to echo “je suis Charlie” that some people tweeted in support of Charlie Hebdo. Or they’re just dumb.

mjg59 weighs in regarding some of the digital evidence presented: https://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/69507.html

He fought the law, and the law won. Well at least he has that in common with that other Bitcoin martyr, Ross Ulbricht.

Please come back and crow about the price if it’s managed to pumped up significantly over this wet-fart “ATH” in the future, so we can tick of the “typical Bitcoin booster” bingo card.

Nah it’s just white-labelled Axe.
