The question is: Where is the other end of the chain attached to?  ;D

Would you be so kind, phelix, to explain what message you're trying to imply? I'm a tad perplex.

I think he's saying that bitcoin will be big in the extreme-sports industry.

He's implying that someone is playing bitcoinica users like a fiddle.

I'm guessing someone is running the stops on bitcoinica.

lol, thanks for your comments!


the chain is meant to be fastened to the ground - it symbolizes the constraints on going short / leverage by the account deposits.

I like the way phantomcircuit has put it: someone [the manipulator] is playing bitcoinica users like a fiddle.

he moves price (with his fake walls) until users deposits are automatically spilled on the market. some of the smaller sharks profit from this, too.

please note the bitcoin moon is on the wax :)

Oh...    I assumed that the chain indicated that there used to be *two*  little bitcoinica bouncers!
(or maybe even a whole chain-gang of them)

hehe

It could also mean the bitcoinica trampoline is attached to the manipulators back and the chain has some bait attached to it.

He is safe as long as manipulator doesn't take a dive and the more he jumps the angrier the little sharks get. Or until the little sharks figure out how to pull the chain.  ;D

a girl is crying for her bitcoinzees. or did she eat too much of the bitcoin-cake with bad berries in it?

the oven creates mostly smoke. nooo it is not a hype :)

is the box a tv? or a microwave?

you captured the fda very well  :D


edit: just saw your thread about the dried strawberries... I don't think it's so bad - you can buy plenty of dried fruit on the internet.

Goddamn. Why don't you just come out and say I can't draw!

1) It's a computer case that has a sauna inside, a sauna being used to dry out the strawberries

2) The owner of the sauna/rig is sitting in a towel (not a girl, but I admit I forget to add the ()(___)() towel hat to make it obvious) sweating while thinking of bitcoin (not crying).

3) The FDA is watching the strawberries, anxious to attack
