So far bitcoin has achieved quite the opposite. Never has a currency had so high crime rates per total market cap. Volume and percentage of bitcoin transactions that are involved with crime are bigger than any other currency.

I have good reason to believe that what was stated in the OP is true.

So by "dead" do we mean no longer paying out BTC? The game itself seems to run fine, so it makes me wonder where all the ad money is going then.
The game has now been put on "badbitcoin.org" (not by me), so I suspect it is no longer paying or responding to messages.
I think this site is no longer active. but some members still playing it. According toowner's account last active is on October 25, 2015, 07:21:02 AM It means there is no active support and not develop by the owner.. payouts were manual so... as dead as it gets |

Question: If they care so much about anonymity, why use an archived, clearnet version of their website advertised in massive signature campaigns? How is this not a honeypot?

It's already 2016 in Australia and New Zealand, nothing interesting about bitcoin too.

If anyone gets such work there such that you can openly discuss it, I am sure we all would be interested to hear a little bit about it.
No one will openly discuss it because it is dark net after all. There is a reason why things in darknet usually stays there because no people discuss it and only a few people actually know how to access and get a good source of money from there Well, yes, I understand that the Darknet is dark for many reasons. But, not all of it is illegal stuff (?). correct, the dark net or deep web technically refers to (to put simply) anything that is on the internet in some way but is not publicly indexed by something like google. this can include subscription / password protected content, database queries, etc. however, even if we limit the term to only include onionland, its not all drugs, guns, and money laundering. theres simple forums, akin to something like hackforums, although ive never really browsed it myself. theres also plenty of legal services, like tormail, bitcoin tumblers (bitcoinfog, although i think its dead. and these are legal, otherwise bitmixer would not exist), message boards, etc. Until now keep away from Darknet due to the fact that everything I've heard about it was illegal .. I'm starting to slowly change my mind.. It seems that their campaign work  thats because the media only reports on the illegal stuff that happens, like silk road and drug markets in general, child pornography, assassination markets, carded stuff, etc. As of the popularization of TOR and I2P as anonymous networks, whenever someone says darknet, they usually mean using .onion/.2ip websites or services using the network. But even TOR and I2P aren't only used to illegal stuff. |

Several issues with how the forum handles images right now: Image hosts come and go, bitcointalk's image proxy isn't the very reliable, popular image hosts tend to delete controversial images.
I think that allowing base64 images to be posted could help solve those problems, at least for those willing to use the em.

I don't think the legality really matters... We openly discuss dark web markets here, so why not humanresources?
With that said, I've been thinking that HR might be a honeypot, what would be an argument against this? Any evidence? SO you're not upset about their signature campaign practices, you're upset or questioning the actual business they run, providing jobs, etc.? I think you should let the market handle this...bad businesses end up going out of business. However, it would be interesting to get a report from someone on their success or failure using the service. Do you even know what honeypot means? |

Not only is OP reverse-jinxing 2016 (which is good), there's actually mechanism behind that magical hex/charm: Investors put millions of dollars into Bitcoin every single day. Investors looking to maximize their returns in the Bitcoin space have several options: - buy BTC
- buy mining equipment
- buy stake in a startup (venture capital)
For two straight years, those daily millions have been flowing into mining and venture capital, not the price. If mining is topping out (likely) and venture capital is topping out (apparent), where do those millions flow? I'll give you one guess  go here http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-venture-capital/scroll down how many of those funded ventures have failed Bitcoin's VC industry is good at one thing, having an amazingly low success rate compared to general Fintech VC. |

Could someone clarify what OpenBazaar is?
Supposedly a decentralized, free marketplace. The catch is that it doesn't exist. It was supposed to launch this year but it was postponed. |

I assume they don't agree with you : http://www.coindesk.com/2016-bitcoin-best-year/I'm not sure how it will be a boring year with the halving block reward and the official opening of OpenBazaar honestly , and there will be more proabbly A writer at coindesk wrote an op-ed not in agreement with what I say? That isn't surprising. As if being optimistic about bitcoin hasn't been a popular opinion among bitcoin users Coindesk needs to pander to. |

The hype has started dying down, USD exchanges are dominated by Chinese onesinvestments are getting back to 2013 levels and the supposedly interesting bitcoin-related projects of 2015 didn't have a positive impact to adoption or the market.   |

Seems like this prediction wasn't that far off. Who's reburying bitcoins now? I do! Following OP's advice, you still wouldn't have had the opportunity to turn a profit. It's easy to predict that what goes up must come down. Much harder to say from how high and how low subsequently. I already turned in profit selling some BTC @ 455$ and rebuying @ 425$. Pretty neat I'd say. |

I've seen a lot of speculation about the national debt of the USA, but couldn't find a topic with specific discussion about it. Please feel free to discuss the matter below, without necessarily having to correlate possible outcomes with bitcoin.
