Title: The Bitcoin Show Down Too? (for multiple shows now)
Post by: smoothie on August 02, 2011, 07:09:02 PM
I find it odd that it is now Tuesday and there hasn't been a single Bitcoin Show when since Monday now there should have been three shows total.

I just checked their live feed and there is a message saying "Up Next: The Bitcoin Show 2pm" and that was at 215pm Eastern Standard Time.

Usually Bruce and Manny would be all over this MyBitcoin.com story just like the Mt. Gox Hack and other breaking stories.

Any thoughts?

I think they are just running behind & haven't quite hammered out how to deal w/the mybitcoin situation.

I'd imagine it's pretty hard to want to do a show when you realize you lost 25K bitcoins this week

Does anyone know what that's like?

Perhaps. In the past they have been pretty quick to respond to these types of news even if they did not have all of the facts.

Plus I thought they had a line of guests that they had scheduled for these shows.

I hope everything is alright with them.

Where is the source of this information you are speaking of?

look around for an NPR podcast, the reporter saw that someone in the onetv studio left this wallet up. Bruce might have confirmed it was his.

Okay so you are just speculating if there is no source you are citing.

No, I am telling you what to search for (the NPR podcast). I am not doing the leg work for you.

Maybe not put up information which you can't prove then?

I'm not enamored with trying to prove something in a thread about an online tv show to you.

Then that would explain why you are still posting to this thread? Move on buddy.

Bruce's manfriend/financier Ed probably got upset about the loss of their bitcoins on top of all the money he's invested into this show and pulled the plug on the whole operation.

Bruce has been quite open about his general association with mybitcoin.com and the amount of bitcoins they may be out of.

I would not speculate anything until you hear from them.

I posted this to see if anyone got word of exactly why the show is not currently airing.

Does anyone know what that's like?

In 1998, I had an offer from Amazon.com that included 8000 stock options. I declined and took a job with another company.
Soon after (less than a month!), Amazon's stock price had doubled and I had already missed out on several hundred thousand dollars of gains.
At that moment, I felt like I had lost a winning lottery ticket. I remember the despair of that loss.
I had not had much money up to that point and I thought I had lost the biggest opportunity of my life.
Yeah, it's bad.

(btw, my story has a happy ending, it just took a bit longer)
