If you choose to mix your on-line and your personal life then that is a choice that you make, and surely you have discretion regarding how you want to do it. Still there are opsec issues, and there are a decently large number of folks who prefer not to roll like that... and maybe sooner or later, these real life encounters are going to cause a decently large number of the encounters to become public faces in the bitcoin space, whether initially wanted to be the case or not. If you are willing to take chances that you might become a publicly known person in the space, then of course, you can do that and many people prefer NOT to have such a life, even though there are a lot of publicly known people in the bitcoin space, and they likely have decent lives and they may or may not have intended to go down such a road... Actually, there are people who started out having an online persona that later became public, and whether they are happy about it or not, frequently it will be harder to undo something like that than to do it. So all good and fun if several of you want to juggle with these chainsaws, and it is all fun and games until someone's eye gets poked out. So, even though you have a preference to potentially go public or potentially screw up your opsec, stop trying to suggest that everyone should be making the same kinds of opsec decisions, because that is pure irresponsible to be suggesting such norms, when the world does not work like that, especially in a space in which there could be decently high risks to screwing up OPsec in unwitting ways and NOT properly personally assessing some of the negative consequences of either purposefully or accidentally creating Opsec holes. But then again.... people have met me, but who of my team did they met with @JJG??  Does it matter? Are you attempting to suggest that there is more validity to coming out as either a public person or a quasi-public person? Are you trying to suggest that members or lesser if they choose to attempt to exercise meaningful Opsec? Get real, and again, it is a bit irritating if you are trying to suggest that your chosen level of Opsec (or lacking thereof, or choices to share your relative lack of opsec) is preferable, merely because you believe that you are getting value from it and other peeps that you met in real life that happen to be WO members are also perceiving themselves to getting value from these kinds of mixing the meat space engagement decisions. Exactly! Some of us may be hoDLing a decent amount of coins and/or may not want to be identifiably labelled as hoDLers. No matter how strong our passphrases are, you can be absolutely certain that a $5 wrench in the right hands can unlock our wallets. And I sure wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of that wrench...  It's for the exact same reason that I would never publicly (IRL) show off my coin stash. Even wearing clothing implying that you HoDL BTC may one day be an extremely dangerous thing to do. And if you do it today, some bad guys may remember you... Imagine yourself going out wearing a "Just HoDL it!" T-shirt when 1 BTC = $1m... To me it's not bravery, not even arrogance, it's just plain stupidity. Some relevant news: https://www.ccn.com/turkish-police-bust-bitcoin-extortionists-who-netted-3-54-million-from-victims/ IMO it's not much different than "wearing" a nice home/car/watch. Location is everything. Stay out of Turkey, anywhere in Africa would also be off my list as well as most eastern European countries and all of Russia, most if not all of the Phillipines... here's a map  If it isn't green or yellow, it isn't safe to have nice things especially if you aren't familiar with the area. I'll make up a little niche map later for the yellow areas. Situational Awareness is key. I need my Bitcoin toque! |

Hey Homer, will you be making a hat for the art entry?
^ + 1000!
Yeah, homer caps have been probably the single most important artistic action in BTCT ever! It has even transpired off WO frontiers to many other members not regular here.
Homer should make an entry for sure!
I wanted to make an art design with the hat gallery, but... WO hats are part of Bitcointalk, if the hat gallery can help you, it's at your disposal. Go ahead xhomerx10 will surprise us.  Thank you guys, I appreciate the praise and the encouragement. I've been rather busy lately though and I'm not sure I'll have the time to make something hat-related before the contest deadline. I'm waiting for some inspiration from the muses but lately, I've only been visited by Melpomene.  I've made a presentation with all the hats, I know it's not a spectacular design  , but all the hats are there. We had to be all the WO,s present in the "10th anniversary art contest". https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5193860.msg53122427#msg53122427 Thank you VB1001 - that is beautiful. |

Where is that guy with his "alternate reality indicator" ?
I could use some alternate reality about now.
If I traded it all If I gave it all away for one thing Just for one thing If I sorted it out If I knew all about this one thing Wouldn't that be something Finger Eleven |

To date, your possibly quasi-"friendly fork," xhomerx10 wannabe snakeoils salesman, aka madnessteat has made a few 10th anniversary hats (and submissions to the contest). Does that stir your creative juices? Homestly, it really doesn't though I am flattered. It does however take me back to my youth where I had to caution my little brother not to do everything I did. Thankfully he turned out fine; likely because I took the blame since I had already done those things once, my parents would assume I did them again and there was no reasoning with them because it was obvious that I had no common sense... but I digress. |

Amero-Isatek has just made the largest-ever purchase of land with cryptocurrencies. The total transaction was around $280M and paid with their own virtual currency, Ameros (AMX).
Amero-Isatek has been making so huge inroads in the Mexican cryptocurrency world this year. The company plans to open its first physical exchange in Nuevo Leon, Monterrey and also plans to open another seven more throughout the country. It’s a bold move that Amero-Isatek is betting will play out in the end given that there are some 800,000 cryptocurrency users in Central Mexico alone.Check out the rest of the news by clicking hereDo you honestly think that this is a great move for Amero-Isatek? I mean, wow! Although that I've heard of some few news from Facebook, Twitter and other social media channels that there are some who have bought land or property by using Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrencies out there, this one for me is totally an enormous amount. $280 million worth of Ameros tokens? I honestly think that this news alone would be a sign that land or property owners might consider accepting cryptocurrencies as mode of payment. What do you think about this one guys? Let me know your thoughts and opinions. Would love to hear from you all here. Thanks! What an utter load of shit. The highest price ever paid for this token was US$0.00259534
Anyone can do the math to realize that 17M of that doesn't equate to $280M.

.. genius, Hueristic. ...
Hey u used an oxymoron! But, I was thinking that BTC prices could go up, but on the other hand they could go sideways or down, in the event that they do not go up. but in the event that they do not go either sideways or down, then surely the odds are considerably high that they must go up.
Surely any of us is correct in our BTC price predictions, so long as we make sure that we cover all possible BTC price directions. But then are we saying anything?
unequivocal Logic there. BTW for any of you guys that didn't see the end of the Steelers/Browns game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iT_EjH1_xZc The Steelers are my team but I missed the game last night. Based on what I see in the video you posted, Myles missed reading his horoscope yesterday too.  credit: https://www.horoscope.com/us/horoscopes/general/horoscope-general-daily-yesterday.aspx?sign=9 |

Saw this video on LiveLeak while looking for anti-establishment, conspiracy porn today and I had to turn into a gif so I could post it here. I wouldn't say I dislike cats but I try to avoid them (and their owners) because I'm allergic to cat dander but credit where credit is due: some cats are awesome (as are some cat owners).  full video here |

In other news, we had a record snowfall for November 11th and record low temperature for November 13th in my neck of the woods.
edit: Full disclosure; I don't live in the woods. (yet)
I am living about 100 meters too low for snow. We got all the rain, however  But it's only a 20 minute drive to the two nearest ski areas. Time to start the snowskate season  Snowskating... had to look it up! If I were 100 meters lower, I`d be under water  |

Yes . The UK Royal family had him executed
It's scary to me how no-one is truly safe on this planet. At any time. Even with the systems of control we've put in place for ourselves. A crying shame, in-fact, that we live in society's current state. Speaking of crying shames, Ghislaine Maxwell didn't kill herself. |

Wouldn't it be wonderful if, the more you mined Bitcoin, the more it would produce its own energy for mining?  As long as the value keeps growing exponentially, it kinda does that That being said, I haven't been able to mine profitably for years thanks to our many levels of tax on our energy. |

https://www.thestar.com/news/starweather/2019/11/12/toronto-sees-record-breaking-snowfall-as-the-city-digs-out-from-mondays-storm.htmlToronto has a new snowfall record as the city begins to dig out after Monday’s big weather event.
13.6 centimetres of snowfall was recorded, said Monica Vaswani, a meteorologist at Environment Canada.
“This is a record,” said Vaswani “There has never been a daily snowfall that was higher then 13.6 centimetres.”
The last time a significant snowfall occurred this early in the year was Nov. 6, 1951, Environment Canada climatologist Dave Phillips said. That’s when the city was hit with 13.2 centimetres of snow... It's as if JimboToronto has a 6th sense.
