I expect this event to be worth some after a few years.

That's a great reason to do something. But why bother with NFTs, too much work. Let's sell satoshi's account, that's gotta be worth a lot.

There is also no need to wear earrings or get tattoos and we are not going to ban them, right? I can give you countless examples of things that are not necessary and no one would think of banning them.

This might have something to do with earrings not being used as weapons in mass killings.

Timelord2067 posted the same exact rating for me and nutildah. He's clearly a few cards short of a full deck. You can't possibly convince him that he's wrong. The best you can do is convince others to not include him in their trust lists and at this time he's not in DT, so that's working.

Well done GS Elevator, it has been a long time since you nailed one:

I get the sentiment, but using log scale for Bitcoin and linear for fiat makes this extremely dishonest, not unlike what Goldman Sachs proper would do.

Well then take it and enjoy! You too can be part of the stats data collected over the next ten years.

I've already taken "it", and why wouldn't I. It reduces my risk of dying of COVID-19 at least 10-fold and I still want to enjoy the spoils of my precious bitcoins.

I'm sure the MSM will crush this news with their complete silence.  Roll Eyes

EDIT: MSM already crushed it, report was published in February.  Roll Eyes

You're mistaking your inability to search with some sort of conspiracy. It's been debunked and forgotten.

I know we're supposed to hate Coinbase, but compared to the rest of US fiat banking system - and let's face it, the main reason to use Coinbase is for its fiat services - I have found it to be not significantly worse or better in my 7 years of using it, at least not worth doing KYC again to switch to some other exchange. Here's the good part: Coinbase is under purview of CFPB and if you have a well-documented case they will grill Coinbase until you get your money back. That's where I would go instead of Twitter or Reddit.

Oh wow he really did that? What a dickhead. I thought he sounded like a bullshitter.

Well, it's clear even from his own grossly embellished numbers. If he claims that $1000 (which he took in bitcoins) in his "investment" returned ~ $1.3 million, but $1000 hodled in Bitcoin since then would be worth ~ $4 million now, he clearly lost investors' bitcoins. This is kinda like shitcoining, which also tends to take your bitcoins and then claim USD "profits", except his shitcoin doesn't even have a blockchain, can be bought and sold (sort of) only on his site, etc.

For some reason OgNasty is too shy to post his newest fantasy ROI calculation here, so I'm gonna help him out. You will all be very happy to learn that your NastFans investments appreciated > 1000-fold.

1000$, invested 10 years ago in various assets:

Those who claim that it is better to invest in gold than in bitcoin will be especially pleasantly surprised. Grin

Very interesting image.  Thanks for posting as it shows just how even the best of investment opportunities in the world appears to be trash next to Bitcoin!  It made me do a little calculating and see what the value of $1,000 would be if it were invested in the NastyMining IPO back in June of 2012.  The result, $1,000 invested in NastyMining would be worth $20,136.36 today.  Additionally, you would have received $1,331,098.23 in BTC distributions at their current value.  That makes a current total of $1,351,234.59 gained from a $1,000 investment in NastyMining (now NastyFans.org) in less than a decade if you never sold or spent your distributions.

Even with turning $1,000 into $1,351,234.59 over the last decade, there are still users who complain and have even left me negative trust for speaking this factual information.  Let that be a lesson to you...  Don't judge your success by what you hear from the peanut gallery.  The more amazing your accomplishments, the more hate you will receive from those watching from the sidelines.  That's just how miserable people react to the success of others.

That BTC return in a decade is amazing no doubt.

EDIT: Oops, this data doesn't include the BTC distributions that went out before GLBSE was closed...  I'll have to locate that and update this post as the real return will be significantly higher with that data included.

Nice attempt at gaslighting, you spamming little shit.

Here are the facts. You collected bitcoins for an investment, and you repaid fewer bitcoins. Despite the obvious loss, you claimed 100%+ ROI in dollar value, even though you never collected dollars. Now you're taking this even further and assigning today's dollar value to bitcoins that you repaid, and original (2012) dollar value to bitcoins that you didn't repay, to further embellish your imaginary profit.

But hey, some people in this thread believe in lizard conspiracy so your spam might work. Good luck.

But you don't know that dead people don't exist spiritually. And the reason is, that it's so much fun blabbing on Bitcointalk, that you never take time to work it out that you really have a spirit.

I have lots of grape-based spirits in my cellar. That's not proof that hell exists, try harder.

2612  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: August 14, 2021, 12:07:32 AM
don't even understand what Bitcoin is

Please tell us that Bitcoin is not money.

Notice how Bitcoin sneaked in that long green dildo right after ChartBuddy posted the hourly chart. I knew they're both in on it.

2615  Other / Meta / Re: We need a new global moderator. on: August 13, 2021, 08:12:11 PM
The issue with re offending users is likely because a limitation to SMF. Moderators can't see if a user has been reported or had x amount of posts deleted recently, unless they manually check via the modlog. On a very busy day of handling reports, a moderator might see several hundred, and at its peak of reporting probably thousands of reports a day, and therefore potentially thousands of users. Now, because of the way reporting, and the report queue works, multiple moderators might be dealing with those reports at the same time, and therefore that's where the consistency might be lost.

That's why I think a regular of the board who can proactively keep it clean with some help from user reports would be better than having global mods taking care of mod-less boards on a 100% reactive report basis. Someone who is actually hanging out there would know immediately who's truly disruptive and who's just occasionally trolling.

And all this talk about numbers... it's not really a math thing. Someone can have 100 posts deleted out of 1000 and still be a valuable member. Shit, someone could have 15 out of their 20 first posts deleted if they didn't know some obscure rule - which by the way is not an easy thing for a newbie to figure out but that's a whole different discussion - and they could still be a valuable member, just may need a little nudge in the right direction. Mod discretion FTW.

What gets my goat is persistent willful spammers and shitposters, who take enormous numbers of reports to get even a temp ban.
2616  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Americans will burn in hell for eternity on: August 13, 2021, 07:37:33 PM
Keep telling yourself that hell does not exist.

Why? There's like gazillions of things that don't exist, it's stupid to waste time even thinking about it, unless it's a really good Sci-Fi movie or something... and hell isn't even that.

Maybe that will help you cope with the pain when you are down there burning.

There is a bit of a flaw in your argument. I can't be someplace that doesn't exist.
2617  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Six people killed in mass shooting in Plymouth, England on: August 13, 2021, 12:24:08 PM
I feel like some reporters are way too quick to default to the easy "explanations", oh look he was a Trump supporter, or he posted on incel sites or whatever. Usually it's far more complicated than that. For someone to kill people, to kill children, the person has to have serious mental issues. We'll have a "nocoiner who sold at $10k" rampage one day and we'll all be implicated once they dig up our Bitcointalk posts deriding that person.
2618  Other / Meta / Re: Question for ignore on: August 13, 2021, 11:38:16 AM
Someone who quotes your ignored user might have an otherwise useful post. It would be nice to have the quote of the ignored user to be collapsed (and while we're at it, collapse/reduce wall-quotes and large images too) but hiding the whole post would be too harsh IMO.
2619  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: August 12, 2021, 11:56:02 AM
It's not cold. Though I wouldn't have thought that would have hit any kind of limit. It's also an area where codes are generally not so severe. Though I should definitely run a quick check. The main reason for going with the size of the neighbor's shed was it looked like a good size and is proportionate to the land area.

> 200 sq ft is typically the size where permits and frost-proof foundations come in but I'd suggest to check the code regardless of size because your neighbor is definitely going to snitch on you Grin

January 6 through May 31, 2021, 5,121,436 US adults completed an online COVID-19 survey.

Maybe infofront should do a survey here asking "Are you a PhD", to help you understand how this works.
