Title: Dread Pirate Roberts is out to win contest?
Post by: littlebeetle on April 10, 2015, 03:37:35 PM
Hey, check out something weird - I was
following on CoinTelegraph's contest (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=983220.0;all)
to win 5BTC when noticed this stuff.

Check out this creepy video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFKqUFsKyqU&feature=youtu.be) - there is a guy
claiming he's the real Dread Pirate Roberts,
and Ross Ulbricht was just a decoy.

Looks ridiculous (https://www.facebook.com/alexander.black.37669/posts/1567552233522116?pnref=story) enough to be true.

If this was true, and if the guy could come up with the original silkroad, he should have the funds or skills or team to build the site he's talking about, and not begging for 5 BTC...

Nice try, but I can't imangione Roberts doing just that.

The guy on the video looks too young and not exactly dread.
My idea of Dread Pirate Roberts was somewhat different.

This pirate is like a demo-version. Too young and good-looking.
