I knew there was a lot, but wow this is staggering once you stop and look at it.

Correct, this has been done.

I made one posting and I got a buyer for 100BTC in 24 hours.
Nice to get actual cash for bitcoin.
Very nice.

This idea was floated out there before.

Wow this is a staggering sum of money to have stolen. Very sorry to hear this and best of luck getting it back. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif)

Very interesting number and crazy. But of course you gotta use the right tool for the right job. Mining with a mobile phone is obviously a horrible idea.

Wow, that is pretty stern language in the opinion. Pretty clear indication of which way this "impartial" judge is leaning. There will be some important case law established in this trial.
Agreed.

Very unfortunate, but Bitcoin will continue on.

Hey, don't worry about it. Bitcoin will crash back down to $1 eventually and you can buy back those 500 coins and get ready for the next jump to $1000.
In your dream, that will never happen. There are far too many people in bitcoin now. Agreed, I can't see this happening ever again, but hey weirder things have happened.

Very cool novelty item. Best of luck in you ventures! Hope it is a success.

Any and all competition is good. The best will win.

Definitely a scam. ![Embarrassed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/embarrassed.gif)

Very interesting, I've never worked with facebook marketing in the past. The reason I began with this venture is the need to reach a lot of businesses that use facebook as there primary web presence. Due to their business model, Facebook is probably one of the worst social media markets for reaching your target audience. It doesn't mean that successful marketing campaigns can't occur through facebook, but it means that it will tend to be more expensive, and require more effort and more luck (needing the marketing concept to "go viral"). I wish you luck in your effort, but be aware of the conflicts in the way views are handled by Facebook. Agreed, and I can speak as someone who has done an incredible amount of marketing on Facebook. It used to be amazing when it first began and you didn't have to pay to reach your own fans, who liked your page on their own accord. Now Facebook has turned marketing upside down. Businesses are abandoning it in record numbers.

All fiat currencies, every one of them in history have eventually gone to their intrinsic value. Zero.

Sadly eBay and Paypal have stripped what limited power that sellers had to protect themselves long ago. You are defenseless to scammers on eBay as a seller.

It's funny how he says he's back to his old lifestyle of eating 2usd nudles while still living in that apartment.
Also he had a good quote in the wsj interview: "In the future, I would like to participate in the bitcoin community, as I've experienced what to do and what not to do and can help others in that regard".
Ouch, for some reason I don't think he'll be welcomed with open arms. Best of luck to him although.

Last week I got a friend very interested in bitcoin and gave him a educated run down on what it is exactly. Today I called him to see if he was still interested in jumping on board to only find out his wife who works at a bank informed him that it is nothing more then a scam.
I was curious so I asked apparently the bank received a notice describing bitcoin as far as I am aware illegal and a scam etc. at least this is what I got from our brief conversation. I'm going to stop over there and talk to her a little bit more and see what it is she is able to disclose exactly.
Regardless slightly upset of the picture that the uneducated have painted not from the media just word of mouth.. He said he's going to research it himself but generally when wifey puts her foot down its yes dear.
Edit: The primary factor in it was money laundering and untraceable money.
Wow, its sad that this myth still exist. But it does.
