"I'll pour curry onto your shit to make it Indian"

Isn't that the tiniest bit racist?


after I read the title and loled, assuming someone had gotten screwed by some various service or whatnot, I read that and rofled.

I'm black. What does the Black style shit consist of? Malt liquor drizzle with a studding of chicken crumbs? These customization options are interesting.

Can I get weed sprinkled on it then?

Additional concerns:

It's been getting very hot and dry on a global scale. As a gardening enthusiast myself, what can you do to protect this investment against default due to catastrophic failure (extreme drought, heat, or weather that completely devalues a crop). Would this asset be protected with crop insurance?
2943  Economy / Securities / Re: Whats the best way to pitch an investment here? on: March 31, 2016, 09:12:06 PM
is the value of the product calculated at a distributor or consumer rate?

For large investors, a large disbursement of 'product dividend' (work with me here) might cause a liquidity issue. Since these investors will have to sell the product to recoup spendable value, how can you assure they will not use value due to tax/tariffs? Or that said product will be legal to vend in their locale (the UAE, for example, prohibits alcohol).

PSA: Scrypt.cc is guilty of Fraudulent Misrepresentation, a crime in every financial jurisdiction in the world. Anyone who has lost money buying or selling their fictitious 'KHS'/'MHS' token is legally entitled to recover their funds back in full.

https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/fraudulent_misrepresentation
Quote
Fraudulent Misreprentation
Under contract law, a plaintiff can recover against a defendant on the grounds of fraudulent misrepresentation if (1) a representation was made; (2) that was false; (3) that when made, the representation was known to be false or made recklessly without knowledge of its truth; (4) that it was made with the intention that the plaintiff rely on it; (5) that the plaintiff did rely on it; and (6) that the plaintiff suffered damages as a result.

PSA: scrypt.cc is a scam, most likely of the "ponzi" variety. You will lose your money if you try to "invest" or "play" or whatever you want to call your participation in this shitshow. You've been warned.

More info here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1102560.0

and I will reiterate this. any due diligence on this asset raises huge flags, namely, legitimacy and transparency. you have been warned, and at this point, you are being stubborn if you invest. Please guard your value, people.

You have everything you need here Smiley just add a few parts to the mix:

Cogent idea
Transparent operation
Clear plan of action
Identifiable, legally liable actors
Honesty and integrity in operation.

I'm not trolling you. From what I've seen , that is so lacking from the overwhelming majority of what people chuck money at here that you could use the fuckin forum and a btc address to collect immense value. You can do less and get by. But if you truly want to make a difference, some shit that people will talk about, don't dismiss me.

Id counterparty, and if Uncle Sam comes to get that ass, yes, it is considered a security. the sec has a boner for this particular nuance of security law, be careful Wink understand that if you succeed, it won't be a deal, but if you fail, many angry people will expose the more sensitive parts of your personal life on reddit, and sue you into small pieces.

You are welcome Cheesy

You are being sold uncertainty.

I often have seen the argument "no one would sell you a thing that would be more profitable had they kept it". This is true, to an extent. If you don't factor in time. I could certainly hold this tiny digital little goldmine for a while, until it crunches it's numbers and solves its equations and generates its value, but time is my enemy. What if the difficulty leaps sky high because of my competitors? What if the price of btc crashes to unprofitability?

Perhaps it would be better to sell it to another fellow, and let him deal with that uncertainty. And build a better goldmine with the value he has traded me.

Perspective is invaluable.

Thank you again for your responses in my other thread, and a few questions:

Are there plans for this asset to be listed on an exchange, or via a color protocol, to facilitate liquidity?
Are there conditions of reimbursement in the event of operator negligence that results in devaluation of the underlying asset?
In the event of issuer recall of shares, what would the share buyback process look like?
Can this relationship (contract) be defined in more exacting terms? Or is this more akin to a fixed rate loan that pays .3 percent interest per day? (10% per 30 days).

I want so badly for this to work, but the issuer's reluctance to communicate/move forward in a timely fashion stays my hand from investing in this asset right now. That might change.

And a tip to the issuer: it's gonna be hot this year. I don't know if you are exploring outdoor production , but consider supplementing your regular indoor cycles with an occasional outdoor. No lights to cool, or run for that matter, cooling is gonna suck this season. It's like, record breaking hot. You will eat the temp differential in profits.

If you must maintain medicinal quality, use a greenhouse. There is no recreational quality echelon that is not obtainable outdoors; the product won't suffer. Also consider the current season of autoflower offerings: Dinafem and Fastbuds, among others, have some boutique strains that can get you at least 112 per in 9 weeks with the proper pot size. With all the shiny new hybrids the kids go for like Sunny D. And they smoke just fine, take that from a former photo purist. You can get that div up big as fuck in cycle or two, if you have the space to pull it off, I don't know your sitch. Outdoors has its own risks and rewards, and I know you understand what that means.

So, something to chew on. Drop me a line if you read this, via pm, or if they bug you enough to read this Smiley I have a few more suggestions you might find interesting. I think you have your shit together. I just want to understand the method a little better, I haven't given up on this yet.
2950  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: Why do faucets fail? on: March 31, 2016, 08:29:51 AM
Thanks guys, I did not expect so earnest of a response, it is appreciated. It seems for all the responses that bots are the game changer, the presence of the bots forces considerations (the certainty of making manual payouts vs the inefficiency of doing this for many users)(having an attractive claim size vs being subject to said claim size in the event of faucet abuse). Programming for me pretty much stops at hello world in basic, so I may have to ponder on this one. About to lay it down for the night, but this will give me something to chew on as I drift off Wink

Thanks again , and if anyone else has anything to add, by all means please do so. Perspective is invaluable Cheesy
2951  Economy / Micro Earnings / Why do faucets fail? on: March 31, 2016, 02:07:32 AM
Over the time I have been fooling around with bitcoin, I have always been intrigued with faucets. The concept is pretty alien. Literal free money, but almost worthless amounts at a time. It'd be like if someone stood on a corner handing out slivers of cut up penny. Intellectually, I understand the concept. They advertise at you, and give you back a percentage of the earnings.

Now the question is, why doesn't this work? Are there a lot of operational costs going on behind the scenes that eat up profit? Are there that many people using a given faucet , and if so, why don't all those guys mean even more profit, if it's derived from traffic? I would greatly appreciate it if a faucet operator would take the time, if they feel gregarious, to explain the quick and skinny of operating a faucet? It's something I'm interested in possibly getting behind, but I want to understand why so many of these particular business ventures fail.

Thanks in advance Wink

Edit: cleaned that up, t9 is fail.

I have the distinct feeling a new process is in the works.. But I doubt we would see those technologies emerge, with good reason, before the Great Halving. So, I think it's a great time to start organizing your assets in anticipation of cloud/mining equip investment , but I'm not so sure about right now. Seems premature to invest now knowing a new technology is going to affect existing value in such a huge way. We will see  Grin

I have to say that this was suprisingly painless, and if the Sig campaigns were this cut and dry back in the day I would have actually considered participating (it seemed like a lot more coin back then). The automation makes this novel; I followed all the instructions initially except for the personal text change (managed to overlook it), but low and behold, a few hours later after an experimental post or two, I have satoshi in my account (in the process of being converted to doge, lol). Thanks guys, this is a gem, and I may send some trading funds your way, pretty clean exchange interface  Grin

2954  Economy / Securities / Re: Suggest me best and trusted,oldest site for btc investment. on: March 30, 2016, 03:17:23 AM
Time and time again, I have found that simply having put my btc in a cold wallet and hodling would have been much more profitible. You truly do not own your coins unless they reside at a wallet address under your sole control. Unless a service offers insurance (coinbase actually does, to my knowledge), you have no assurance of value, making the risk really not worth the potential gains.

I have been waiting quite a long time to hear the end of this tale. Since the facts stated will be discoverable for future trials, what Mr. Brewster says in the minutes will be as binding as cement. I hope this is indeed a cogent story.

I will say this. He had very little incentive to resurface. I am intrigued, and I will reserve the rest of my comment for a few days.

but the English.. god God, the English  Grin I'd be a dick if I said I didn't understand perfectly, but I'd be a liar to not say its a little unnerving every time I consider the fact I have money invested on a platform that talks to me in broken my native language.
2957  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: HASHNEST Discussion and Support Thread on: March 26, 2016, 01:13:21 AM
now see, that was much ado about nothing.. we could have announced this without a market freeze, but I guess this is the proper way to go about things. so for that, thank you hashnest, for doing this correctly. It is appreciated Smiley good work.

~Green

oh, im back guys, got pissed at crypto for a while. i had to return, fools are investing in known ponzis and magic bean securities once more, i thought we were past this. although there is good work being done, i must lend my voice if it helps.

it's like screaming into the fucking wind Smiley



I am not sure there is a proper way to announcements.
If this is the only announcement, it is rather anticlimatic.



They also translated "from" wrong again.
HASHNEST - if you want a person to check the syntax of your English translation, I don't mind helping.



What's wrong with ponzis, they are like gambling. Still sometimes fun when you do them correctly. I like my personal systems for maximm profit.

it is polite to freeze an asset, when news may affect its value and all market participants do not have equal access to said news. to not do this is technically facilitating insider trading. but this does not seem to matter in this particular space.

and ponzis arent bad per se, i just feel some kind of way about profiting off my brother's ignorance. this is a real world, with sharp edges. some of the flock must be protected from themselves. For every experienced gambler like yourself (we can both agree these are binaries, at best, never an investment), there are ten new fools that will pay a steep learning curve. I'd like not to see that. It puts a black eye on the space, and thats just bad fuckin karma for everyone Smiley

To each his own.

Not sure I'd blame protesters. They aren't doing much rioting. Reporters broke the camel's back and maybe should be brought up on charges for being so irresponsible and greedy, but it's clearly part of something bigger which just needed a tiny spark to set off. Parents insisting he had only some type of bullet-firing sandwich didn't help, either... -but people are clearly looking for some kind of responsible leaders on this who can cause the sparks and bring the change they want instead of letting faux reporters and shootings set off uncontrolled & undisciplined responses. The LA riots are still well-known - so like with Vietnam, people are going to scrutinize anything done now looking for parallels -- there's no place for violence in causing change for the better right now. They seem like they have a lot of pent up anger at what's happening but've been disenfranchised and became cynical in the old leadership structures in the black community which lacks any catalyzing figure or progress they can feel. The media establishment pushes toothless profiteers like Al Sharpton, but the responses seen, especially in Ferguson, makes it clear these kinds of people are utterly ineffective. Obama's probably the best leader the black community is being given right now, but he really can't connect to people and catalyze movements the way someone on the outside could and I'd argue he lacks credibility, now. I'd guess he would've been a much more effective leader as a senator and could've had a lasting legacy, maybe even a national day.

-But what the Hell do I know about this?

Kluge gets it  Grin

Um, no. It's not safe for any citizen that comes in proximity of the police to pull out a gun and start firing in their direction. So don't do that.

You are right.

Apparently, you don't always need a gun though. Or to be able to hold one, for that matter.
