Didn't see this posted anywhere and thought you guys and gals would like it.



In yet another strange twist in the Kanye-“Life of Pablo” saga, pharmaceutical exec Martin Shkreli claimed he had been scammed out of $15 million in an attempt to buy exclusive rights to West’s new album.

“Someone named Daquan said he was Kanye’s boy and I signed the deal to buy ‘Pablo’ and sent the Bitcoin. Call the police, this is b——t,” he wrote.

Shkreli, who was recently arrested on securities fraud charges, told his Twitter followers on Sunday that he’d been in touch with Bitcoin founder Satoshi Nakamoto, who promised to get his money back.

that thing about getting scammed are most likely fake. I don't think he even knows what blockchain is (check his tweets).

found something interesting though..

btw at least 3 threads about it were posted yesterday.

in debt?

better start selling those fur coats, and ask Ms Kardashian to pay him a weekly allowance.

Lol, I thought he was in touch with Sitoshi to get his coins back. :P

Lol I love Kanye, I don't get the hate, he's very talented and hilarious. I've heard his remastering Life Of Pablo already and will release a new version soon! He's that crazy.

I wonder how such a thing could happen. I mean those sport shoes he designed didn't look at all like they were meant for handicapped people. [/sarcasm]

I can send his some satoshis for his big ass lady, if he wants:)

Oh my god! :D
That guy is such a joke.
I mean come on!Really!
Have read his twitter post regarding Satoshi?!That's hilarious! :D

In terms of Kanye West.
Why isn't he starting his own crypto? Name it Coinye!!! ;D --> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coinye (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coinye)
As Andreas Antonopolous said: "And this time Kanye will make it!" :D

He could make the shiniest coins ever. Designer coins.

Someone actually made a coin called "Coinye":

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coinye (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coinye)

and Kanye sued them, as I recall...  ;D

lol, what an idiot

i have a few thousand coinye wests i could lend him, which probably wont get him very far as some dick decided to take out a law suit against the creators of "said Altcoin".  oh wait yeah it was him........ ;D

dont believe that story.
its his attitude to be pested as a "black man", not being able to pay his own rent. Being broke. That is a common clichee.
He knows that selling this story puts a lot of blame onto him, and thats what he wants.
He is very rich, actually.
Dont believe EVERY story you read out there.

Zuckerberg, in fact, drows himself in a huge pile of money, and thats another reason. He is not the only one.
They should reinvest this money into the internet community in america.
He used all the work people had already being investing in this technology, and he had not to pay a single penny for it.
Now its time to substantially support the internet community. Give back. Not everyone will have success.
But there are too many young americans without a REAL perspective for their lives.
They start dreaming. just that. just like the slaves once did. And its bitter to watch.
There is a lot to do, imho.

Even bad advertising is good advertising, right? he might not be smart but he has people near him that think for him.

There are much more meaningful things for Mark Zuckerberg to use his money on.  I hope he doesn't throw it away.

If he or his lawyers were smart they could make a killing off this. Buy up a bunch of these old coins on the sly, hire some devs to revamp the coin and get it going again and just by endorsing it the value would skyrocket, he then could cash out and make a killing.

And, he could drive Kim's dad's old white Bronco as long as he keeps it under 35 mph on the LA freeways.

Maybe he no wants sitoshis.

He is quite literally the biggest scum piece of shit on the planet.  He is the most self entitled asshole now, and it sucks because when he was making a name for himself, he seemed to have a good head on his shoulders and was a family oriented man.  Now he only does stuff to get his name out in public, whatever that may be... whether that's taking an award away from Taylor Swift, calling white people racist all the time when he is the only one who initiates race controversies, etc.  Idk, he's the only celeb that I have a genuine hatred for and hope he loses all of his money and never can get out of this so-called "debt".

Don't worry, his wife can be the bread winner in the family by bringing in millions by doing absolutely fucking nothing productive for society.  God... I hate celebrities like these idiots. 

The hate is not targetted at Kanye, it is directed at Martin Shkreli the scammer. He trolls with shite like this and people hate him already. Now he wants to taint Bitcoin with his lies and we are not up for that. There is no proof of the supposed $15 million transaction.

How do these people sleep at night?

Maybe he spent all his money on getting rid of the Coinye coin. I remember all the drama surrounding that coin, where the developer got letters from his lawyers threatening to sue him and offering settlement deals..

Looks like he explained how he got in debt in a new series of tweets. It is not his personal money, but rather the money of people that invested in him. He probably put it under some company, so his personal finances will not be affected by it.

Thanks, for typing what I would have said:
I try to leave out the "hate", but cannot agree more about the Kim and Coinye drama.
He is the most self entitled asshole now...
Didn't he just say he is the "greatest artist of all-time" ? (What a fool)

wow, I just realized, that we had here also very fucking Coinye coin:) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coinye

what a joke, i remember this guy was going to sue the people that built coinye, when it was released, in fact it was cancelled and re-done....

some other big name are in trouble nowadays it seems....

I very much doubt it that Martin Shkreli has contacted Satoshi Nakamoto it's possibly just a Twitter stunt.

Fucking Ray J (http://www.tube8.com/amateur/kim-kardashian-superstar-sex-tape-with-ray-j/759541/) on PornTube* is not exactly 'absolutely fucking nothing'.  That probably took some humility and shame.  Maybe not as much as Paris Hilton (http://www.xvideos.com/video3239881/paris_hilton) who let a guy blow a nut in the face on live TV, but nevertheless, it sure isn't 'nothing'.  

*great double motorcycle at 3:27

Let's take a step back and realize for what it's worth why that sex tape was so popular... If her dad (mom now?) hadn't been a lawyer in the OJ trial, they would've never been so "popular" in the first place. I still don't understand how they got so popular off this initial thing that put them in the media spotlight, but that is definitely the only reason. Kardashians aren't a music artist, actor, anything... They just are treated like royalty just for the sake of being treated like royalty. Ever since they got in the spot light, her parents did nothing but pimp out their daughters, and for some reason, I guess America loved it. And if you consider Kim getting a nut blown on her on camera in a home video that got "leaked out" a contribution to society, I'm concerned...

Anyways... Because Kayne married her just for the sake of money & publicity/fame and nothing else, I don't feel empathy toward him... I hope no one buys his shit album... Maybe he can do something "productive" and film himself getting off on Kim's face to make that money back... Unfortunately the rest of normal people don't have that option, hell I wish I did. lol

Kanye is not really broke at all. He has a successful, clothing line, multiple business ventures, and all his music. He has been making those twitter posts trying to get attention mainly for his new album, but also for the upcoming version of his clothes.

I hope Mark showed him the finger.  ;D ... I am sick of these celebrities living the high life, because people look up at assholes and admire their antics.

They should be doing charity work and doing good things with their talents... These wannabe gangsters, give me a pain in the ass.

$53 million in debt... wtf is up with that...  ??? ??? ???
