Few things https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=317658.0https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=317658.900Also, was it a pump? http://imgur.com/a/AmOTN. - Some signal/symbol analysis and reading between the lines is critical (i.e., pumping iron/lifting weights, note the post-work celebration picture in the background). Keep in ming that "Watts" is an important name w/ this story. Watch for evidence here with this story, but also generally in crypto. Look for evidence in the crypto communities on twitter and reddit that employs images/words/etc that suggestive of elfs (elves), alfs and unexpected alliances btw distributed and autonomous anti-u.s./rebel/extreme libertarian orgs (plus a huge need to shape the media and narrative (truth seekers, artists, affinity tactics). Note the rebel imagery (starwars type stuff, confederate and other battle flags (some w/ X shapes: Scotland, traditionalist radical catholic orgs - Pius X ( https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/ideology/radical-traditional-catholicism)), resistance, beards, etc). In the community widely, note patterns in occupations/trades (cleaners, plumbers, architects, photogs, movers, etc) and crafts (soap making, cameras, artistry generally) of friends and followers of folks you find interesting. Note the prevalence of car (jeeps, drifting cars, etc) and motorcycle imagery ("cycle"), loops (including infinite ones), infinity symbols, the number and figure 8, number 1, prime, rabbits, red, green, egypt and its cities; pyramids and arc and arches and tent (triangles, generally); black and white stripes; rainbows; lions; wine; fertilizer; permaculture; nature; purple/pink flowers; beach/water scenes; sail boats (sail silhouettes = triangles); refugees; rasta; fractals; pig imagery; light/lighting,illumination,lumi; pot; vets (employment opps and charties for warriors); random/interesting fact sites/twitter feeds, etc. Evidence will be in the form of repeated words/comments, pictures, notes, profile pics of friends, followers, background scenes, themes (hope), symbols (examples: hearts, crowns, kings, etc), name patterns, (ex: 'craig' is a hugely reoccurring name, along w/ some others - leo, lee, adam lambert (fanpages, think: Lambert the Gentle (moo) Lion), con, kahn, davis, luke, evan, conner/connor)) and more. Patterns become obvious after a while. Generally, places you might be able to hide a message in plain sight. This rabbit hole is possibly deep and wide. Its chaotic and contradictory, there are cold trails. A rebel alliance makes sense - only way to take down the death star/empire/u.s. (recall a recent libertarian article about destroying the death star not being bad for the inhabitants of the death star, dark wallets). It would give some logic to resistance to mass adoption strategies - would draw too much attention to bad practices (scams, p & ds, etc) or have other outcomes these groups fight against (greed, possible envt problems w/ mining, capitalism, big data gathering, etc).

I wish I could remember who was the first person to bring the hashlets == unregistered securities allegation up in this thread. It only took a year but the US Gov finally agrees  US Gov probably suspected that for at least that time period (cloud mining existed prior to GAW I believe), but I doubt they had enough in they way of verifiable damages to justify the expense of an investigation or action at the time the suspicions started forming (and I don't know that many pro-bitcoiners would want the govt to have that ability or follow through on it, so taking their time is good a thing from big picture perspective (but it certainly doesn't help all the real losses during the interim, sadly)). |

One thing I find interesting is the lack of information or charges relating to paycoin/xpy. It's almost like that part got skipped over, or didn't matter, so I wonder if there will be more PDF's incoming, or... ?  I suspect that the Paycoin angle will be tackled separately and in surprising fashion (and possibly by or with a different agency). Hashlets were clearly securities (investment contracts, promissory notes, almost anything can be construed as a security) and were therefore easy to go after by the SEC. Accordingly, the Hashlet action possibly can be used as a proxy to open up the scope of the investigation (via discovery tools available in litigation). However, perhaps they (the SEC) have all they need and no announcement has been made yet, or maybe there is not enough to go after (which seems hard to believe), or as stated previously - maybe a totally different agency will step in (CFTC, DOJ, IRS, etc.) TL;DR - Just guessing, but I would not be surprised if the Paycoin stuff is just idling until more evidence is made available in the discovery period of this action. PS - Also, JG would be small potatoes compared to SF. SF & co. could easily be the actual target for a paycoin-based action. I mean, what if JG was just a pawn-that-didn't-know-it for SF/CF/etc? Weirder things have happened . . . . |

Not that relevant, but a date jumped out at me: http://www.mail-archive.com/cryptography%40metzdowd.com/msg09959.htmlSatoshi Nakamoto Sat, 01 Nov 2008 16:16:33 -0700 This Saturday (Nov 1, 2015) is seven years exactly since it was posted that Satoshi had "been working on a new electronic cash system that's fully peer-to-peer, with no trusted third party." The fact that its lasted this long is a testament to the strength of the idea as well as the process for putting into play, fragility notwithstanding. EDIT FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY: Satoshi posted at 16:16:33. Google search of "16:16:33" yields many links to the Bible passages at John 16:16-33, the first line of which being as follows: "Jesus went on to say, 'In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me.'" Are we talking about Satoshi or Tupac, lol. People are really reaching with their theories.# If the man exists he's not going to return on any anniversaries, he'll probably just stay in the background lurking and do his thing. Satoshi in the cut, that's a scary sight. No theory here - just the results of a google search that made me chuckle and that I thought others might enjoy as well. |

if the dump continues 2-3 weeks more, I don't know what to do
Relax. Do nothing. Sit tight and be right. The Monero Mustang dev team (volunteer + paid) is doing amazing work, but it will take months to finish. Maybe put in some skunk bids, in case we revisit ~0.001. Pretty much right on. |

Also the great divorce crash of 2013 already took the house, but don't worry. The important thing was to get out of there while it was still cheap, before the crypto asset division would have cost me millions.  Sure honey, you keep that expensive house with the rising property taxes and barely sustainable mortgage. I'll keep these imaginary internet fun bucks. Deal?
I so hope to be able to quote your today's posts in a few years time americanpegasus, that would be epic! And even if I can't, fully enjoy reading your posts today anyway Here's to the Crazy OnesI forgot about that commercial. Thanks for posting it. |

i have heard on good authority that the Core dev WILL be increasing the limit doing something like 2-4-8 soon. this is a "temporary fix" and have other ideas which will do far more for bitcoin scalability than simply increasing block size.
If true, excellent. Seeing any progress, movement, or even continued good faith negotiations is a good sign IMHO. |

Hmm. Couldn't find anything doing a quick search on PACER. Any idea what case this is from ? Pacer is only federal court. I took a quick look and thought maybe this was from a restraining order hearing (it does reference a deposition of MJ taken previously), which would be at the state level where MJ is located. One clue is the caption (Thats the header on a court filing where the party names, document title, etc. live). Its not a X v. Y caption. Its a IN RE: X caption (in the matter of). You see those types of case captions in Petitions (restraining orders, probate, some domestic matters like dissolution of marriage, bankruptcy), not Claims/Complaints for relief/damages made by one party against another. Think 'determination of some right' (in re) rather than 'righting a wrong' (X v Y). EDIT-Could also be from a contempt hearing, like if MJ didn't cooperate w/ some investigation - but consider how SEC v Carlos one was captioned - it wasn't in re - it was SEC v CG (think back to what that federal court caption looked like, i'm too lazy to look right now and might be misremembering). |
